What the *CENSORED* is the point of even handing that stuff out before hand for veteran players?

I was fine when Brewko had contests in the white room to win it, hey, that's cool to have to go through a contest to win it.

Now where's our collector for Beta gear, the last thing to be defiled?
#36300435373 04/02/2008 14:27:50 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
Pretty cool...but this will cause issues im sure...

Is the other one beta jump though..

The problem is the fact that everyone that joined before the Assassin event got it, and everyone that joins the trial gets it... So it's already a dead item, and no longer rare or cool, just that nobody in between got this item. And now, well, they can.

#36300435385 04/02/2008 14:30:32 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008

Having gotten my Mobius Code from way back during the Morpheus event, I can definitely understand the frustration here.  However...  I'm really hoping this means I'll finally get the Hyperjump Beta I was supposed to get three years ago when I pre-ordered the game.

#36300435393 04/02/2008 14:33:53 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008

I actually don't see this as a bad idea... I mean they gave this item to new subs from trial players, so why not give the chance to other players who didn't get it.

I have it, so its not like I need it, but once this item were given to trial players, adding this just makes sense for the players that have been around a while but not long enough to get it. IF it was not given out to trial players, then there would be good complaint about this.

Yay now my alts can get mobius too since they were too new...
But if the 1st thing is HJ beta... thts just bad... tht wud mean pre-order = null
#36300435396 04/02/2008 14:35:02 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
I have some storage charaters that have stupid names, I keep them because they have Translocation and Hardware/Boom/Glimmer. Can we get a collector for that so I can delete them? I mean HJ beta and Mobious have one, why not those.
#36300435397 04/02/2008 14:35:15 Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
If that first set is Beta Gear/Beta jump. I'm going to sub to WoW, seriously.
Honestly all you could come up with as a reward is Mobius Code? Yeeash.

I don't understand, I thought a lot of people were crying for Mobius Code to be made available to everyone after the Beta Key thing.


I think it's cool, though, but that's because I've never gotten it before. ;)

Depends if you have it or not, and it also depends how easy they are to farm. Personally i like it for the obvious reason of i don't have it on all characters.

Seriously, I lol'd when i read this. what makes you think that they would change it (assuming it is HJ beta) becuase people are going to sub to "WOW". HJ Beta became just another item when it was used for marketing purposes, New players are getting it so why don't us non beta vets have a chance also.

Well that seems fair enough, everyone wanted it now they can get it, and the folk who want it all for themselves can pitch a tent in Datamine and stop everyone else getting it.SMILEY

Course now i'm more intrigued by what set one is.

Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
But all the people can't be all right all the time

#36300435421 04/02/2008 14:45:52 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008

I really don't mind.  Since every free trial player got it, seems fairest to let all paying customers get it now too. 

I'm more interested in what the gum does.

 Looks like the gum might be a consumable, and I want something to chew.  Perhaps we can prevent people from trading by crowding the collector so nobody can target him.

lol...just..lol..we need different items to seperate individuals imo to make items and rarities more unique...I'd much rather have something custom made then whatever someone else is wearing next to me....so those of us vets who have these abilities and extras that earned them should be able to trade those in for veteran perpetuals or something for those of us who have been here for forever and still trying to earn something..I'd trade mobius and fly and amber if someone made me a silver bandanna or black patchers headgear..

Ok thats cool 'n all but at least give people who have those abilities something. I know that to an extent Rarebit can only give us recycled content, but come on... He could have put together something a little more interesting.

As long as I stand in Data mine, no one will be getting this gum.

It's time to kick *CENSORED* and chew bubble gum.

And...I've got a lot of gum.

My goodness.....

This does nothing for me, a vet who has these things already.I really wanted a good reason to go back to Datamine more often.
This is not it.....
The content in this game is awful Rarebit......sorry.

I hardly play this game anymore for reasons like this......

Anniversary events all reduced to under an hour?

Sorry Rarebit, I can't blame you I can only blame your superiors in SOE for continuing to cripple this game, forcing you to give us recycled content.
Please, I don't want to hear the fanboy/girls throw "Datamine" in the air. Just go in there and do a /who...........


#36300435434 04/02/2008 14:49:55 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
I love how people complain when people complain about events, yet when something they don't like happens (same as those that complained about the events) they complain right along with them. oh well. My account was jipped in the transfer from WB lost all my beta and pre-order stuff ( I still have my pre-order box ) So I guess this can help me claim what I was supposed to recieve in the first place. Can't wait to see what Tier one is though.

#36300435441 04/02/2008 14:51:27 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
Well, if item 2 is Mobius Code, I assume item 2 comes from the level 41s? And item 1 will be from the level 10s. But maybe it's the other way around if item 1 is HJ beta. Having HJ beta would basically make having HJ at level 10 pointless. Unless then they increase the level minimum for normal HJ.

Or it can just not make sense O_o
#36300435442 04/02/2008 14:51:58 Re:Image Retrieval - April 02, 2008
If the Gum is useless, then why does this guy/gal/collector need it? I spy something bigger happening with this (maybe). Have Hyper Jump Beta and also the Mobius Code (although I rarely use them) so it doesnt really bother me. I can see why it is going to annoy a few people though having spent the money on pre-order and also remaining loyal to the game. Its kind of like being at work : Someone has been a customer with you for 10 years plus. We launch a new thing for existing customers - however to get that, you have to wait awhile before you van have it. Whereas someone off the street can pick up something, that has better or more interest to them.

Sorry...work mode kicked in there, but you see my point i'm making? What exactly do we (I speak collective for vet players) get out of this?

NB: I don't actually class myself a Vet btw. Have played for over 3 yrs now, but meh, I'm not one of ego.
