ZyloWolfzan Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Note that I'm talking about the normal Snipetron, not the Vandal version. I think the Vandal version as a reward for this event was a GREAT idea. Gives those who want that last shot at the weapon that chance, and puts another Vandal up, so players can show others once the game is out of Beta "Yeah, I was there, it was awesome." However, the old Snipetron was just like this, just like the Braton Vandal, just like the Lato Vandal, it was something that was limited time, and those who were playing the game back then got it, then it was gone. It was their reward for being with the game during that time. Then it was immediately tossed out, along with its better version, for this event. This seems like a kick in the teeth for the people who got the original Snipetron. First, the Vandal version is BETTER? This seems a bit off, but whatever, I can accept it, so long as the original Snipetron keeps its uniqueness, so long as it stays only in the hands of those who earned it....oh....wait....what's that in my foundry? Snipetron Blueprint. Why? You gave out the Vandal, the Vandal is BETTER even, WHY do you need to give out the Snipetron as well? What's the point of having limited edition if you just un-limit and re-limit it again later? For anyone wondering, I actually never got the original Snipetron, I think it should have stayed only in the hands of those who got it originally. signed my opinion though, anyone else's thoughts?

Soulgazer Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Because they bought it before it went off market? Oh, such work and effort they put into earning that Snipetron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silversponge Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 They gave out them both to reward players by allowing them to gain the mastery ranks from both and also because it fitted with the lore of the 'raid' we were meant to have done into an enemy weapons cache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZyloWolfzan Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Because they were here first. Like I said, same as the Lato Vandal, the Braton Vandal, and now the Snipetron Vandal. signed same exact concept. Zylo the Wolfbane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumireaver Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 For anyone wondering, I actually never got the original Snipetron, I think it should have stayed only in the hands of those who got it originally. DE is/was sorry about removing it without telling anyone in advanced. (This screwed over a lot of people who had recently reset and couldn't purchase it again.)

BinoAl Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I had the snipetron, and got screwed out of it in the reset. People who have the Snipetron aren't early adopters, they were the ones who lucked out and didn't lose it or buy it before it was suddenly taken off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattaBase Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 The regular Snipetron was actually just a standard shop weapon like the rest, I don't believe it was ever stated to have been limited edition, but was instead removed due to the fact that it's a Corpus weapon that shoots bullets instead of lasers.

Eversor Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Sorry, Vanilla Snipetron wasnt an exclusive nor limited time edition, not even a gift, reward or prize. They simply suddenly got rid of it of the market without any warning. No offense, but your whole argument fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZyloWolfzan Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 Apologies for having an opinion apparently. I guess I'm not allowed to think my own thoughts? I'll keep it in mind and stop expressing myself I guess, thanks for letting me know internet. signed I appreciate it, really.

Archistopheles Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 This seems like a kick in the teeth for the people who got the original Snipetron. How so? We never were told is was being removed/retired. The people who owned one just fell into a lucky coincidence. We all knew it was coming back on the market eventually.

Satwo Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 only people who participated got anything. the blueprint was only given to those who participated and killed at least one drone. i really dont see the problem here. if you dont like the original, sell it. if you think it sucks, sell it. if you think you dont diserve it, sell it. the rest of us see it as that cherry on top of our sundae, and are happy to have it.

Also, people like me who used the reset had the Snipetron before resetting and lost it, only to also have it being removed from the market without any notice at all. I'm happy I got the chance to get it back since it was a huge kick in the "ahem" when they removed it without notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LxLawliet Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I didn't know people would care so much about that. I mean, we have bugs, exploits, hacks and whatnot to deal with, but hey, let us rather discuss about why everyone has access to a freaking WEAPON now.

iPrevenge Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I think the entire community should be able to have access to every weapon that has ever been released. Events like this are a good way to do so. I hope to see the CBT vandal weapons available for all, as well, one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BinoAl Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I hope to see the CBT vandal weapons available for all, as well, one day. Nah, I do personally think the other two vandals should stay exclusive. My issue with the snipetron's "exclusivity" is that there was absolutely no warning. If they told everyone a week or so before taking it off the market, and let people keep it through a reset, I would've been 100% ok with it.
