Remember when we got a full blown trailer and desktop for the last loyalty program?
I wouldn't mind if we at least got some in game images of the stuff we're getting before it comes out.
4 days left, surely they must be able to start spoiling things properly now.

At this time I would say they'd better save up the effort and let us discover the goodies by ourselves, there are only 4 days left lol

But looking at how fast we got insight of what we got, and how quick they shared news, i'm thinking we'll get our items in May...of 2014 >.<

There WAS artwork of the items included, but after perusing the site, I just can't find them, sorry! The villain helm will definitely suit many of us. It's just too cool, much cooler than Statesman's classic Romanesque helm. I'm gonna be glad to finally get access to them. Frankly, to me those were the most outstanding pieces, though I recall being happy about a couple of other things. Just hang in there, it really will be worth it, plus SSA#7 just came out. Don't you want to see what happens? This is only Volume 1 of who knows how many to come.|

yeah Lord_Kalistoh and Tessa, i know of the one picture they did release, but what i quoted her saying was AFTER she showed us that one pic of the helms. So that pic doesn't count as informing us more, since it was in the Original Post.

It's funny but you'd think that if they wanted to encourage people to actually stay subscribed during this period that they'd be motivated to show us everything we'd get to, you know, get us excited about it or something. |

What other kind of business can get away with telling its customers "we'll give you something if stay with us for a time but we aren't going to show you exactly what you'll get until after the period is over." Just seems weird to me somehow. *shrugs*

Given the amount of time and effort spent promoting the Super Packs vs. that for the Loyalty Program, you can probably guess which is more important to Paragon Studios in the CoH Freedom era.

Sad to say, but yeah, i think green is winning the battle versus loyalty.. such a shame, and i didn't think it would actually come THIS far.|

As i posted on a diff thread, imo, loyalty trumps green every single time.
Yes, it's nice that short timers are willing to fork over hundreds of dollars to get up the Reward (Money) Tree, but if they don't stay longer than two months, what's the point?
When subs start to drop, less resources will be made available from outside, less resources means less content, less content means... well you get the picture.

Well.. the program is over.... and no extra news or info was released during these 3 months >.<
Way to go Paragon Studios, way to go.
For a loyalty program, emphasis on loyalty, cause you wanna keep the players from going to a diff game that released, you sure make it easy to spot that you guys have you priorities mixed up.
Pushing this, pushing that, releasing such, selling so... but when it comes to actually entice or show the loyal fans, the loyal players, the people who have been playing and paying for years, you show you just don't care.
I'll guess we'll have to wait and see on April 18th, i believe, what the deal is. Cause if there is nothing released in the whole 3 months of the program, i doubt they'll show us something now.. not that it matters anymore, the program is over, the cash has been collected and that is what counts, right? green green green, loyal green cash.
And yes Zwill, also looking at you with a foul look atm, with your post on 02-07-2012:

I'm still waiting for the assets myself, meaning they haven't been delivered yet.
From our last update, we are still on track to start delivering these rewards soon. As soon as I get the professional looking stuff, we'll be sure to post it.

I showed some of the designs over the Ustream. I don't have the images here at home or I'd post them. I'll try to remember to post the ones I shared on Monday.

Official Page on the CoH:F website says April 18th. It's now April 1st.
So, you've got some time.

Changed the link, which still has items received should be on April 18th, so either way.
You've still got time.

That's fine Zwill. I don't really think anyone was expecting the Devs to spend too much time producing a major preview of everything involved. I think most of us were just hoping to get a few more official pics of all the rewards sometime in the last few months. Should have been relatively simple to do.|

I just have to think there were probably at least a few people out there who shut down their VIP accounts that might have been "saved" if they had been given a bit of a hint of getting something extra for this loyalty period. There were times in these last few weeks where I almost forgot we were even "under the gun" for staying subscribed. *shrugs*
