Then whenever a new Tier 9 reward gets released (looks like it will be every 4 months) they can sub again for a month to unlock it.
They can do the same right now... it doesn't take a subscription to fill the tree.
Also, atm, people who have T9VIP rewards could potentially drop their subs, because all but Incarnate content is unlocked.

I was thinking about this the last few days... What if my suggestion goes through, and the VIP rewards will only be available for, and when you are a VIP.

Let me explain:
So you can pick the VIP rewards even when you do not have T4 filled. But, unless you are a VIP, you con not select the costume parts in the tailor.
Current outfits with these parts are unaffected, but when you want to change something in that outfit, it would delete the VIP costume parts, because even though you selected them, you dropped to premium.

This is next to the 400-550PP, reward token and Server Transfer token a nice incentive to stay subbed, and would make the VIP reward even more exclusive for VIPs.

Thoughts regarding this?

See I don't mind if someone gets to keep using the rewards after their sub runs out, as long as they subbed to get them. I also don't really mind if the devs decide to make the older Tier 9 stuff available eventually in a fashion other than unlocking the entire reward tree, but I hope they'd at least keep the VIP requirement to get it.

The carrots to sub right now are pretty thin, but it is slowly getting better as they add more VIP only content.

Who have earned it through dedication. No Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I must has nao.

Sorry to see your 2010 reg date, but you must wait.
I fundamentally disagree. Nearly every costume piece in this game has been AT LEAST ported over to the Market, and there's a good reason for it- because people like making their concept heroes and villains from the get-go!

There's no one crying here, there's no one saying they "must" have it now- it would just be a fundamentally good idea. If you'd like to offer a rebuttal, please show me ONE instance in which restricting costume parts (making them inaccessible by at least cash.) has been a good idea. Hell, even the Kheldian sash that Sunstorm wears is a sought-after piece on the wishlist.

Credo solum histriones qui temperandum in VIP praemia sunt qui potest Latine loqui. Si loqui latine, deinde rebus non digna maiore.

Etiam, ego vere frui typing quae in Google Vertere et transferendis eos. Facit me ridere.
