Where'd the new threshold rewards tiers go?
in The Bridge
What happened to the new level of rewards in thresholds?
The honor, more supply kits, shuttle tokens, etc..? Didn't make it? Only a one time thing?
The rewards threshold in last event was killer! It needs to be brought back or a regular part of TR.
Shan, can you shed some light with an explanation? Thx.

I beg to differ. This was the communication from Shan last week before last event. Read carefully, doesn't say only faction or hybrid faction events.
It says a new reward structure. Period.

Or Turkey time if in the U.S.😉
Sorinev is correct.
Still disappointed. Should be in all event types to raise the bar in events and get players more competitive. IMO.
BTW, need more expedition events! The galaxy and faction get stale after a time.
As the communication from last week also said:
"Likewise we are also planning on some similar changes for other types of events."
Hella Lame.
Yeah they add new monetization without new content and then they fail to deliver on the second part of the promise, which is kind of the most important to us. DB is worse than EA, at least when EA wants more money they have the decency to give new things to do in return. That's quite a feat right there.
That's not a good excuse. First thresholds work all the time, as far as I know, then they always have a QA department, at least in theory.
I can get onboard with this. PLEASE tell me we have an expedition event coming up this December. We've had them the last two

DB doesn't need to change things to mess them up, trust me.
How many faction/galaxies have we had? What happened to the bonus crew in phase 2 last faction galaxy?
They actually seem to pay more attention to newer stuff, tbh. Like it actually warrants QA.
I think the answer may lie in how the last event shaped up. DB is probably now looking at how the new rewards structure played out versus the new offers, (hopefully) the feedback from the forums and Reddit, and considering accordingly.
For that matter, a Skirmish/galaxy hybrid is an event type they have no statistical sales data on. Adjusting rewards now gives no useful baseline nor feedback. (Also, the whole holiday weekend thing throws it for a loop anyway.)
Skirmishes provide rewards as the event progresses which changes the equation again. And with the (likely) community rewards from the galaxy phase of this hybrid, it could be a lot more lucrative than going threshold in factions.
I think faction threshold rewards need to be increased to bring them back on par with the other event types, myself. The chance of a fourth copy of that new card (even through an event pack pull) or something. As it stands, skirmishes are the only event where your rewards continue no matter how much you play. Perhaps small rewards could be incorporated into the other events too to make up for that.

I'd love to believe you, but releasing new rewards, a new way to rent shuttles, and a highly desired crew all at once clouds the data to the point of being nearly useless. DB has no way to know which change drove sales without running each change independently.
