Thread: Who Supports Better Vet Rewards?
/agree.........Tho im no long term vet (in this mmorpg), i totally agree! In another mmorpg i was over 76 months old on veteran status, the rewards year to year did a good job to out do the last reward, good ex: as a 12 month vet you could get a special pet (statue), could be double clicked to call a pet mount at any time! no death to it, but the vet status was that "only" vets of 12 months or more could use it! every year a"better", "faster" pet "statue" was released one for guys one for girls!
also there were "very" special house items that had "uses" tubs to dye armour, furnitureeven clothing, special anti-decay kits, and even more special were the vet cloths, house statues that actually warded of the creatures of that type ex: (not a good one but....) a statue of a gnort would have warded of any gnorts from around your house or any thing that feared gnorts!
As for a unique bunker house, well umm.....not to be old shcool but there is nothing unique about a house that "looks" like every other generic house (darker, and maybe a basement). lol with what 200-400 item count!
If you want a unique house i think going buying a house deed, looking for a place to place it, placing it and starting the 1-4 hour customizing of wall tiles, floor tiles and and doors and windows, also with over 4 floors this is were "custom" fit in, tho there was no "vet" reward here. and with a minumum item limit of over 1500 items for the smallest house? and up to 5k items in a castle? think we all get a lil shafted with the way this game works!
SWG drops Twice the loot (mainly crap) and has three times less inventory of other games, think about it if you even collected or kept all your really cool vet rewards quest and event items, could you even display them in one house? can you in a guild hall? not at a 400 item count!
in the end i geuss 2 rugs and a biased choise of imp holo's is the best thing they could think of, i mean they only had 1 year to think about this guys, and it is SOE,
patch notes:
added 24 month veteran rewards
-added 2 new rugs imp/reb, Galaxies is proud to present 5 different rugs to the game! we have over 10 planets but only 5 rugs! -added 2 new holograms imp/imp, were proud to offer 2 new "rare" holograms, were even more proud to say with the addition of the two from our aniversary and the 6 from rotw the term "rare" is used in the same context we call our in-game bugs, rare=many
well for this game a vehical anti-decay kit, garmet of unseeing (somin for the crafters to go from mine to mine), uber attack pet that needs no lvl, insta-call swoop, or i know one EVERY single person would pick "double house storage" because its not like we all dont have 5 houses in a row or anything?
all i can say is when im a 24 month vet i get to choose from 2 new styles in rugs or 2 new styles in holo's "WOOT!"
sry don't think this account will last that long! not the way this game turned out
Dark and Light is now in beta! its not to star warsy but come on is SWG any more star warsy these days?

I think the some of the new vet rewards was great, like the rugs, but i was really looking forward to a bunkerstyle house
I am a Day one Vet, as well as beta, so I guess I'm pre-day one.... anyway, I was happy and angry at the same time.
Happy because I collect all the eye candy in the game and run a great museum for it all.
But angry because I too, was convinced the Devs were designing us an ATPT vehicle (which I would have taken) or a Bunker style house. Especially since they had it in the in concept forums, and thousands of people agreed. (Because they asked in the initial post, would we like these items?)
I'm angry, it's almost like I was lied to.
But I'm happy, because I got one of everything offered now, (alt characters) and my museum looks great.

was really hoping to get that AT-PT.. or even the other options thunderheart posted awhile back

Ok heres a thought, maybe the reason they switched it to getting a reward every 3 monthsis because they are working on the bunker houses and/or new vehicle.Seems to me that alot of peeps like holos and they are easier to create, everyone has been rushing them for 2 year vet rewards but they arent quit finished disigning them and need more time, so why not put something in that most players are content with til they can come up with the final product.I'm willing to bet that they will come out soon.
I can see that, and hope you are correct.

Sure. And while I'm dreaming, I'd like a pony. Seriously, if that were the case, I would've expected the development team to post that information once the 24-month gifts were offered.
Instead, in spite of a couple of hundred posts across several forums, we've heard nothing to date.

A new pair of sunglasses would be more useful than some holo....
