That's cool, for the time investment if it's worth it to you then it's worth it to you. Just a matter of individual priorities.
Spirit Charm wrote: I swear. Some ppl get butt hurt for no reason.
Well, not exactly no reason. The reason would be CCP offering items not available in game only to folks that have already given up on this game. These items require no skill pre-reqs to use and are better than standard suits (speaking about the BE suit). For those that stockpile these will likely be worth a pretty penny when the player trading opens up as an added bonus. Say each suit is conservatively worth 500k ISK... that's what, $100M for doing squat for 2 months? I'm guessing each suit will be worth over a Mil....
But, if you think that's no reason, meh.... I'm actually not really that surprised.... |

**** move, CCP.
Especially after going through some BS tedious tasks, for lesser rewards, in the past few events - only to not get the rewards because the stats aren't properly tracked and reported (with another one on the way...) and because I don't need to record every single game I play "it didn't happen".
Meanwhile, these QQers get ******* rewarded for not tolerating 1.0 - 1.4?
Angered. Disappointed. But, not surprised.
(Now that I think about it - that $80 I have in PSN most likely won't be spent on Boosters here as originally intended. I'll take my money where it is seemingly appreciated, not obviously undermined and depreciated.) |

If people are bitching about CCP trying to get people to come back to the game then you guys don't want the game to succeed.
That's as bottomline as it gets. |

I have like 18 Black Eagle Scout Suits in my collection and I-Šve been sitting on them like golden eggs for months. Love that suit! We also had to work for them back in the days when we got them.. And now 100 for free for doing nothing??? |

I'm actually not really that surprised.... those numbers are highly aggravated. And also. I rather have the SP to buy better upgrades and suits and weapons and the ISK to buy 200 of suits better then those suits they get. SO stop being butt hurt. Plus that was sarcasm when I said you are right....

In the end it comes to this:
It's great to have comeback rewards, really! And they CAN be good too (nice set of proto suits for example.) That's cool.
Giving limited event rewards as passive player comeback gift (Black Eagle suits) - not so cool but still somewhat okay.
Giving Quafe Assault suits, which no one ever has had the chance to get before, as come back gift - really bad. Having it so that no active player has no chance whatsoever getting them is just horrible. The Quafe ASSAULT suits.
Think about what kind of message you are sending to your active playerbase. |

I am excited that more people may come back to the game and see how far we've come in the last 60 days! I hope some of you feel the same way :) better question is why did you take the pink off the quafe suit... |

I don't think anyone would turn down vet rewards but as we are vets (some of us) it would probably be better if we settled this with a game of vets vs devs? Come on Devs, put your best foot forward and take us on! I enjoyed the last match I had against you guys, how about more, with really decent salvage and a top notch payout for the winning side with nothing for the losers. Time to get that arena going! |

FYI there is an actual "Scotty The matchmaking AI" character out there running around in starter fits
I have gotten him a couple times
Though i would love to not only got after Scotty but the tac net voice as well for all the times she booted me from battle when I would get the Invalid fitting bug
Now if we could see the the actual Quafe Assault suit and what its stats were, myself included, would not feel like we were the red headed stepchild Also when can we expect to see it on the market and for how much AUR seeing as it is a specialty variant? I do understand the Prodical Son treatment to the players that gave up Dust for an extended period
either way, I will be using my Templar Sentinal in the next 30 days Just waiting on a BPO HMG and/or forge I can put on it

Nah - it wasn't. You know I'm right on dude. Search your feelings, you know it to be true. Nope. Who cares? its important to make the player base larger and more rich with diversity. Vet players will have huge amount of SP and isk over new players. This is simply a way to get players that tried it and didnt like it to return. If it brings more ppl to the game. I say im all game for it. If your against DUST growing then maybe you shouldnt be playing it. |

Nah, it's cool. I'm all for bringing players back to Dust, and bringing new players into the game. I just think it's whack that they are being rewarded more than those that have stuck through the hard times. Even if I wanted to purchase those dropsuits with ISK or AUR I can't even do that.... (it would be even better if I could get them as rewards) but CCP gives them away for free to people that already bailed out. And a lot of them too.
You can say that SP and ISK is it's own reward, and it is in it's own sense, but that was earned with time, patience and effort, it wasn't handed out. (Sure passive SP is handed out, but to both active players and in-actives alike, thereby having no real bearing on the argument).
But in the end if it brings them back it is a good thing, this I agree with absolutely.

Everyone knows a company tries to entice customers back with promotions, reduced fee's for mobiles phones/cable, promo offers for gametime and so on but it would be nice to go the other way and reward us vets who have stuck through all the bad times. I'm thankful for the free exile AR and skinweave suits i received in closed beta but just as the 10yr vets of EVE got the special social club station it would be nice to perhaps offer out something like a Mordus Legion suit/rifle/lav for those still playign since the Mordus Private Trials ect |

as long as the quafe scout suit remains exclusive to closed beta testers I'm good. I love that suit and it's even better cause I can wear it.

we will see how many people come back just for some basic dropsuits, they are cool and i want them but since i have been playing faithfully since march i want get them. inactive accounts will get tons of free **** and they still will remain inactive till dust gets better. CCP a failed attempt to get not new players but those who where fed up with the games bs. Honestly this would have been a better reward for accounts that stay active for 60 days or new recruits. |

How about offering these things to people who slog through your poorly thought out events as well. You know, the same people who have stuck with this game through the constant issues and ham fisted coding since 1.0?
What if they gave you an increase in online players of 500-1000? Not saying it will bring back that many, but what do you recommend they do to entice players back?
Personally I believe it should come in combination of a RESPEC for everyone. This in the build after the FW redo. In other words injecting some real content. To have veterans come back to see a vibrant faction warfare system along with new weapons and suits would be be the equivalent of a walk off grand slam in my opinion. |
