Hi,
I played during sesson 3 and then i didnt till seson 5. I wanted to make a eng character. I hit Va today and realised that you dont get a ship when you hit VA. I bought the drednought cruiser a while ago and i got it for my character. i was so dissapointed BTW im Lifteme/Gold and atleast cryptic should give liftime members the VA ships.

For what it's worth, those of us who stayed really did try to get Cryptic to change that, but we didn't have much luck.

The VA ship token is a Vet Reward for Gold members - which includes LTS members. Play long enough and you get it for free.

We did used to get it for free. Then they took it away.

They did give it to us for free up until December and now they don't anymore. Think of it as a bonus for the people that were there at the beginning rather than a punishment and it sheds a new light on it.

Yup we were told "once" that lifetime and gold subscribers would lose nothing in the f2p conversion.

We know how that turned out, dont we

im 400 day veteran soo do i need to be what 700??

Its a 600 Day Reward...

And it works, as I've claimed it recently on some characters, who are now forced to 'Rank Up' due to the DOFF system... 700 Days is the Android BO, which in some ways, is even nicer then that VA token...

What did you lose? Don't list things you didn't actually have, and would -earn- later if the system had stayed the same.

Anything?

Losing the ability to gain a ship at rank up, is still losing something. Losing the future function to do something, is still a loss; loss does not need to take place on a current material good. Got to love the lifetime subs who always try to defend the game at all cost.
