I know this has prob been talked about before, but i cant seem to get the search function on the forums to work properly. Does CCP have anything in the works as far as Vet Loyalty goes(10+ years)? I had read somewhere a long while back that they were thinkin bout doin a system that only vets with 10 or more years could dock in. Is that going to happen or was that just a rumor mill thing?

I think it was put aside for other things.
The gimmick wouldn't really matter and I agree that the development time is better suited to other aims.

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

I dont think they started it. They just said something long time ago.

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

The vet loyalty reward program is that it says that you were born in 2003/4/etc. That is reward in itself!

Half complete, that's optimistic.

Nowhere near that.

Planed was a station where only 10-year Veterans can dock.

CCP Falcon:

Back when it was made, development were looking into how to do this, and the time it would take vs the overall level of engagement that would come out of it.

It's been decided by our Development team that a Station is not the best use of resources.

I was never a fan of the Vet-Station. Everybody who can would visit it once, spin some ships and then head back wherever he came from.

I would prefere a reward in form of a exclusive Spaceship. The Vets would love it and the rest of us has something to shoot at, so everybody has some content out of it... Blink

The entire idea is crap. If your vet skillpoints still don't give you what you paid for, just be a man and move on already.

Besides, Jita station traders don't mean anything to me, let alone "EVE vetness" if they've sat there for 13 years

Yes CCP make it so, then I can reactivate some old accounts and sell off low/no SP characters for big isk.

I'm in it for the money

So far CCPs consumer loyalty program consists of a bunch of speeches where they claim what a cool consumer loyalty program they will implement and that it will be totally awesome and stuff. That was like 2.5 years ago, nothing else happened since.

It was also announced by CCP on stage that there will be a veteran station where only 10+ year old veterans can dock. They later discarded this idea in some comment in some post in the forums.

They could just give us back Gallente Pleasure Hubs — it would be a station and it would bring joy to the vets. Everyone wins!

My guess is they are banking on effort being better used on trying to get new people into the game than pleasing what amount to a minority for questionable gain. They need new blood no matter how you slice it and I'm pretty sure you don't get new blood by giving your current vets something somewhat exclusive.

Not gonna happen, and I could care less if it does. We don't need some fluffy puff ass rewards, stop trying to cushion EVE.
