(1) Absolutely no agreement. Cash for Vet Rewards? Nononononono.

(2) & (3) Sorry, not with this game's engine. They might be able to do it, but time, manpower and money would make it beyond too costly for the return.

(4) No. Costume parts that actually have powers are contraindicated in this game except for temp powers.


Dec out.

No. No no. No no no. first off, vet rewards are up to 75 months now, that's over six years, and new vet rewards are going to come after that, they're not go to add more in the middle. Secondly, if someone has been playing this game, even casually for three years, can make this much inf/prest easily. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever for them to give away the stuff. Not to mention, what's to stop me from making a new character, trading in my token, getting free inf, emailing it to myself, delete, and repeat until I have an infinite amount of inf?

Been asked for before, and the game engine can't manage these things.

Super speed only works for running on the ground, it doesn't improve your flight speed. If you want rocket boots on your flying character, then buy the recipe and craft them.

(5) Sivler Surfer - board
This, I actually wouldn't mind, but I'd bet that it's more of a "power customization" for the fly power or fly emote. BUT! Not given as a vet reward.

You know your posts seem less like suggestions and more like demands.

uh... no. that is your job. it is our job to discuss whether or not we like it and what could be improved on or if it just doesn't belong in the game.

i'd go more with brewha/city_life. power is actually doing a lot better nowadays. sometimes he throws us for a loop, but it is a lot less then what he used to.

how about the prestige power slide and arachnos cape that came with special editions? I mean they gave away the special pre-order powers from CoH and arachnos helms from the CoV pre-order as vet rewards.... why not those? (bitter grumble)

any way to adress the orignal Ideas... the powers would be cool but inf is pointless especially now that one can transfer it between there own toons, any one who has been playing that long generally has a ton of inf on at least one level 50 (though inf is still better then the silly respec and nothing else that ya get on month 60something or other)

other ideas a semi transparent body costume set (like Iceman), Statesman, Recluse, Tyrant (yes his is different), Infernal mask/helm options

in that same vein Back ally Brawler, Marauder glove options

Tyrant and statesman/ Imperious cap options... on Tyrant I am talking about the broaches connected by a chain and on states/ imp I am talking about the cool over the shoulder bit

True about Power. Wasn't Brewha and City_Life the same person??

The difference is in the NUMBER of them that were available to any one player. You would have had to pre-order at 4 different stores to get all of the Helms, so they included them as a reward so that the average sane player could get the other 3 he may be missing. I believe the Sprints were a similar case (not sure on that one).

As for the cape, it was available through the purchase of a single product, and so is still linked to that product. Also, you can no longer pre-order a game that has been released for years... but you can still (somewhere) find copies of the other products.

I am not saying I disagree with ya necessarily, but there IS a sort of logic to it.

I know there is a logic to it but they haven't offered them for purchace in a content pack either and on some level I don't care. I pre-ordered on those and I do feel a little gyped, not so much on the helms but still.

any way otherthings I'd like to see as a vet reward:

Spider back pieces like th arachnos soldiers have

and how about a new Epic class for those that have been around a REAL LONG TIME, I mean give them something uber special maybe for like the 99th month (I would have gone 100 but its a new reward every 3 months)

if you are talking about the ones with the legs, make a VEAT.

and /unsigned to the 99 month vet reward. sooooo many people will scream about it that it wouldn't be worth the time to develope one.

That is a truly horrible idea. The Devs already regretted making EATs unlock at 50 (and have since changed it) because too few people were able to play them, so their development time was basically squandered. I don't think giving a new AT to ONLY the people that have played for (what will be) more than 8 years is a wise decision.

And as for backpacks? I don't think those should be a Vet Reward. I think they should be freely available to everyone... yesterday.

/Edit: Oddd, I agree with Sharker on something. /

well sure most back packs in this case I am just talking about the arachnos ones

back packs in general (as well as back symbols should have been given to us a long time ago since the back symbols where in the CoV beta)

as far as the epic classes not working out, my solution is make better ones the main flaw of the curret epic classes was that you had no choices on powers they where what they where how about an epic class that has access to all powers for all Ats and can mix and match with the limitation being for example if the empathy aoe heal you can'r have the radiation one (same for e rez strong punches shots etc) I dunno it was a thought...

not all my ideas are gonna be popular but at least I have Ideas

Your idea for an "Epic" AT (and please understand that the Dev's view of an Epic AT is one that is tied into the story, not "uber-powerful") was how the game was set up in the Alpha phase of the game. You could take any two powersets and mash them together. This made it so that you could create truly powerful characters, or completely gimped ones (like a Stone Armor/Empathy character, with no offense). It didn't work.

And yeah, Vet rewards are supposed to be "fluff." The Devs have already pushed those bounds too much as it is, I think. Add me to the /unsigned group for this.

And yes, not all of your ideas are going to be popular, but when you put them in this forum, expect people to either say that they like it or not, and expect people will give you exact reasons why they don't like it. That is the point of this forum.

To my knowledge this is inaccurate, in so much as only a single version of a pre-order code can be applied to an account.

The main reason the Collectors editions item are unlikely to be included in the vet reward program is due to the fact that they were an extra expense.

There is only 1 item that needs to be a vet reward.

Old School Storm Kick.

I'm sorry, but we have signed petitions from every NPC group in the game (including the Lost and Vahzilok!) that while they have become accustomed to being shot, stabbed, burned, and irradiated some things are just going to far. Forcing them to smell your foot is crossing that line by miles.
