Hi,

Just curios as to what has happen or will happen with the future mystery gifts mentioned in the second decade box ? Has it just been forgotten about by CCP?

Thanks,

It is a mystery, of course.

If we knew what was going to happen with the Mystery Code, we would call it something different.




Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

We got some new threads not too long ago if I recall. There has been no commitment on how often stuff will drop, but I'm sure they don't want to flood us with unique stuff or crap for obvious reasons either way.

The dude who was originally in charge of the mytery code left ccp, and no one picked up the project. Falcon later snagged it and the community team have it now. we have gotten a rorq skin. and i think two sets of clothes since

mystery code gift was those free genolutions for everyone so actually CCP gave negative gift for all those mystery code owners who still had those implants on stock.

i find it funny how thay call it gift if you lose more than 5b isk, you sure got implants for free but old one are now pretty much worthless.

People chose to value them as such.

Just like Tech 2 BPOs that are selling at 13-yearly profits on average even today. Blink

CCP has clearly states that anything given to Collectors Edition owners is TIMED Exclusive. That means you gambled by not selling, no one to blame but yourselves.

Also for almost worthless, they are work 100m+ Each now, and likely will go up over the next few months.

Most things fall under that, but not everything. Several of the preorder bonuses, including the CA-3/4 did specifically state they were timed exclusives though. On the other hand I believe the auroral implant and the first released cybernetic arms are intended to actually remain exclusive.

The mystery code is a gift that keeps on giving and at unexpected times.

They have dropped a few things over the months with the mystery code and CCP does announce it when they release something new to the Mystery code holders.

That said, it would be nice if there was more, but what there is is what there currently is with a nice question mark on the future.
