Opened my first campaign 'premium item' box. 4-star "Martok's classic disruptor'. An item for a crew member I do not own. Thanks, DB. Appreciate it.
Did you really buy the premium tier just because of the crates? Already Beta showed that they are pretty useless, but considering of all the useful bunch of rewards, it really doesn t matter imho. Well it obviously does for you, since your opinion is, that there are not enough rewards. Thats ok. I think its just greedy.

I'm guessing they posted that due to Shan saying in the 1,000 item thread...
As it stands on this Campaign I see nothing there that is not to be liked. In the time I’ve been here, this has to be one of the better additions to the game for several reasons.
A: There is no actual extra effort that needs to be done. Dailies are something that you have been, or should have been doing all along. Now you get more rewards for doing so.
B: Spending to get the premium line is a guarantee. You know exactly what you have purchased. Up until now you throw money at a pile of dilithium to get portals or dabo spins, you take your chances with no knowledge of what you will get. And most times you are disappointed.
So in summary, I am very happy with this. Great addition to the game.
Anyone know if Buying adds to vip and get bonus Dil from Vip for Campaigns?
You get 500 VIP points for buying the premium track.
And in turn that will give you dil. Amount depends on your VIP level. At 14 that’s 250 dil.
Are you absolutely certain of this? I mean, I would assume that's right but I can't find anything officially stating that. Can anyone who's actually purchased the premium track confirm this?

Just thought I'd mention this if anybody was on the fence or unsure, but you do get bonus dilithium (based on VIP level) when you buy the premium track. I was gonna buy it no matter what, but if this helps others make an informed decision, I hope this helps.

I can confirm both.

Can DB explain how the pricing is fair for non-US players please.
So it’s $9.99 in the US?
Well it’s... £9.99 in the UK.
Is the exchange rate £1=$1?
No, it should be approx £1 = $1.30.
So why the difference?

Because they can get away with it.
Also, doesn't the UK have much higher taxes? Could be they don't get as much.

VAT (equivalent to your GST) is 20%. However DB don't set the prices per country. They chose a pay bracket with Google, Apple, Amazon etc., and then Google etc. then decide the price on a per country basis. e.g. If DB say they want the price to be $9.99 then google will then charge £9.99 for people in the UK.

I’m a UK player. There are a few things to take into account.
- Sales are taxed with 20% on top.
- Different stores have different USD to GBP exchange rates. Shop around. I believe Facebook/steam might be selling the campaign for £8.99
might not be able to do this every month but I'm glad I did with this one:
I was quite torn though a second star on Tuvok would have been nice but unlocking the final character of the our man Bashir collection was too good an opportunity to pass up. I think I'll have no problem with security from now on in.
might even keep and start a second copy of Bell if space allows.

Thought I’d post here, tryed to buy and got this several times
(Scratched out my DBID)
That is weird. Have you contacted support? Which device platform were u trying to make the purchase on, android, ios, steam, facebook? Have you tried purchasing on a different platform? Are you current on all updates?

I know with my ipad my stt is current but my ios is not, it is 10.3 and I cannot make purchases on my ipad. When I try It just freezes. I need to update to ios 12. Currently I play on ios and make purchases on an old android.

Perhaps my iOS version is the problem, i’ll update and report back 😁

I don't think I would have bought this for only the legendary citation -- especially without knowing for sure I will get it until the end of the month. But when you add up the rewards, it's great. While I can't justify doing this in addition to the monthly dil card, this has now replaced it.
Still . . . Congrats, DB, you got me to more than double my monthly spend on this game.

When we were doing the Beta, I don't anyone ever could of guessed how much if a value the full Campaign would be. I'd do it every month, if I could!

Thanks UnkieB I really appreciate you taking the time, didn't cross my mind to look at the wiki first.
I was quite torn though a second star on Tuvok would have been nice but unlocking the final character of the our man Bashir collection was too good an opportunity to pass up. I think I'll have no problem with security from now on in.
