Feh... color me unimpressed.

So basicly we get some decor and toys, and told about new options right after we all picked our reward.

If you aren't going to put out the bunker houses and AT-PT because it will hurt crafters, the give the gorram schematics to the crafters or at least put the schematics in as a reward for a quest or high end loot (like on the new BH mission elite and boss marks).

Ultima Online learned to give their players something really useful... they increased the potential of characters as accounts continued subscription.

Want some useful options:

1) Additional skill points for any non-jedi toon... like +4 after the first year and +1 per 90 days.

2) Additonal lots... like +1 per year.

3) Additional vehicle slots... again +1 per year.

4) Stat increases

5) Access to Veteran Professions with potent but specialized abilities.

Much more useful than another holo you could have put in as loot.

Oh my, QuiJonOz you went for the throat with that one!To think that someone could come up withsome good rewards like this! It boggles the imagination......

/BMOC

so everyone who already chose their rewards got screwed.
Everyone who wanted things that had been originally promised like Bunker and AT-PT got screwed.

Well, all in all, i'd say... Looks like we got the raw deal again.

Can you say jaded? I can.

Why didn't you tell us about the additional rewards for some of the milestons, such as the Fireplace at 24 months?

You knew they were going to go in in publish 21 why didnt you 'warn' us before we took the 1 and only reward for that milestone, the Deathstar Hologram?

I would much rather a Fireplace and Figurine Display Stand than the DS and the Houseplant

Dont get me wrong, I am grateful for any reward, but you really dropped the ball not posting this Friday feature a week ago, or at least mentioning more rewards would be added in publish 21 ( i would have saved my choice until then as woudl many others)

QFE.

I was worried this was gonna happen.

Those decoration rewards are neat and everything, but what about giving us a reward that provides utility, like the ADK, the 30k of any resource, etc. I've heard rumors of a bunker style house and I can't think of a cooler vet reward than something like that other than a ship chassis only available by veteran reward, etc. It was disappointing that my only option as a 2 year veteran is a hologram. It's a nice hologram don't get me wrong, but for 2 years of playing, I'd definitely like to see more "field use" rewards like deeds, schematics, vehicles, etc. and not just a hologram that will look nice in my virtual house.

I just saw QuiJonOz post... all i can say is: what he said. Now those are veteran rewards!! The holograms and stuff should be extras to real rewards like Qui's list.

Lame

For the field FTW
