Give old players an unique reward/item they deserve.

[Mrniko95]

Been playing for 3 years long , snipetron vandal is my most used weapon , i really like to show it and use it. But now , DE has the great idea to release an old veteran "exclusive" weapon , just because they can't make a new weapon for sortie reward. Now what , release primed chamber and Braton vandal from some sh.. event/reward? At least i got my ancient core and primed chamber.

They should at least compensate veteran players with a sigil or skin, But no , they dont give a ... about old players. ( mastery rank doesn't count , you can reach MR21 within 2 months *dracoborn*cough cough*)

Heaton vandal, lato vandal we're all free... Founders was back there. The only reward you had for being an old member is exclusivitivity for awhile. Now that reward has ended. DE said that they would give everyone a chance to get these weapons. You had your time of being exclusive, now it's other people's turn.

I'm just mad that i never got that boost to days played that they promised when they first brought up the concept on one of the devstreams. I should have almost a dozen Azima by now, but i don't play as much as i used to, so no dice. 

[Stratego89]

Are you serious? Another entitlement thread... sigh.

DE always had the intention of rereleasing event weapons/mods in events after their original ones- this INCLUDES primed chamber, which I figured I'd mention since you made a comment about it. DE has said in regards to braton/lato vandal that they are exceptions and will most likely never be re-released.

You've apparently been playing for a very long time- and observed MANY event weapons returning again, and yet you SERIOUSLY couldn't figure out this was coming? Really?

Move on, let it go. It's just a shiny gun. You had it first- you had it when a ton of other people didn't. You were special, you had your time- now it's over. The only reward you DESERVE for being an old player is the experience of being with the game as it evolves, and the fun you've had with it. This is a free to play game, they went with that model out of the good of their hearts (unlike most which do it to abuse and make a ton of money)- you are entitled to NOTHING. You are PRIVILEGED to being able to play this game. Just like everyone else.

DE said your daily rewards would be boosted (in rarity, is how it turned out) based on your "experience" in the game- which they decided to evaluate with mastery (terrible choice but w/e). DE SPECIFICALLY stated that they would NOT count the days you had already played retroactively.

As long as event weapons are better than their normal counterpart they should be available, that's why DE will never buff founders weapons. 

[Xgomme]

I hate this logic, your weapon is better when you're alone with it ? What a selfish way to think...

 

Oh and long time players will now have unique rewards every 50 days, it's called login reward. ^^

[Gildarts_bb]

hmmm special snowflake thread... move along nothing to see here

[Catacomb]

I've been playing for 2 years and....playing is your reward. Why do you want an extra reward because you've been having fun for longer than other people?

[(PSN)vinfive]

Oh Please. Yes Ok you have been playing warframe for a while. Who cares man? You had your exclusive weapons and junk now let other people enjoy some things. Its bad enough that PC players are still running around with excal primes and skana primes, and that alone makes exal lovers cry, now you want more? Put a sock in it dude, quit demanding some kind of recognition for something so simple. Do you think you are entitled to some kind of grand prize because you heard of the game before others? This is a free to play game, DE doesn't owe you the stale gum under their shoe. Get off your high horse, enjoy the game, and stop being selfish.

[RogueD1]

I think its cool that DE give us good chance to get old exclusive weapons also as they give us chance to buy some cool stuff from past Prime Accesses.

[(PSN)urkonse]

i would like an idea of sigil that can be obtained after 1000 hours of mission playing

 

but imo releasing old event weapons is must.... if you already have it , enjoy the free weapon slot ._.

DE has rewarded veteran players who supported them when they needed it the most through the Founders Packages.

[Genoscythe]

I think exclusives should be limited to skins, I would not mind if the founder items would be released if the founders would get some unique cosmetics, but the stuff we have is mastery, and mastery affects the game, which makes it a problem, now people hate on everything exclusive and don't want it to be strong and brought up to date with the recent game changes. Nobody wins. I mean I got an exclusive t-shirt as founder and a bandana, that's REAL LIFE exclusives.

 

Same goes for all event guns.

The entitlement is real. Inb4 the lock because I don't see this being anything but toxic.

[Drufo]

Why there is always someone that thinks he deserves more than others? Ok, you are a "veteran", but why you should have something others don't? Having the chance to enjoy the weapon way before the others should be enough.

[Genitive]

Just because you are an old player it doesn't mean you are entiteled to any special rewards. And your statement about DE not caring about older players is just a baseless accusation. 

This is a pointless therad and it should be locked.

As a player since U11 I gotta say: You got your event badge and that's 'swag' enough.

FYI, Snipetron Vandal was never an exclusive weapon. The only things that have been confirmed to be 100% exclusive are Braton/Lato vandal, and founders items.

[Hemmo67]

almost3 years of exclusive bragging rights for owning snipetron vandal wasn't good enough for you?

please just D** there is nothing bad to be timely exclusive owner of something

not like the chinese hate us for getting wepons they had timedly exclusive for them

wukong, the new crossbow ect ect UMBRA

but if exclusivity should remain that means they need to remove all items from public server that china had first INCLUDING umbras

Buddy, you're really not painting the veterans in a positive light, and I don't appreciate that. Unlike some games, we're not a community focused around exclusivity and greed, but around compassion, honor, and the will to help other players.

Please reflect on these core values before whinging about some pixels on a screen.

[LordBeeBrain]

So basically, you want other people to miss out on weapons, just so you can feel like a special little snowflake... Is that right?

Oh man, this is great.

Dude, no. I've been playing for three years too, and this is just embarrassing.
