starting 2018 off with a kick in the butt

Locutus_of_Borg_

Thanks db for the legendary but did it really have to be mirror picardo. I had just citationed him glad i never doubled him up .50k citation wasted hurts nonetheless . If only we could have been given a nice shiny citation instead oh well thanks anyway that's 550 honor less i need for next one

Wow so some folks missed out on Troi, so you give them Picard instead.

Tone-deaf!

Yeah, I spent 50K on a citation for him, too. I really don't like to complain, especially about freebies, but that's kind of a kick in the pants. Can I have my honor back?

al103

Yeah, bought citation mere hours ago. It didn't even affected my standing in event and I knew that it wouldn't, bought 5th star for Voyages mainly.

Couldn't you gave, you know, citation as plenty of people would have him 5* as it was best investment for the event or even after event?

This exactly. I really hate when people complain about free gifts, but even I feel somewhat shafted on this one. Can I please have my 49,450 honor back?

Speckles the Destroyer of Worlds

I also wasted a citation. A citation exchange program for legendaries rather than the 550 piddly amount of honor would be a real help here.

Ticket sent. I'm hoping it doesn't screw up my other ticket I have going about this event.

[ISA] Raven

A Citation would have been MUCH more appropriate... ticket opened.

al103

I wouldn't even been disappointed much if I bought him in the start of Mega, but I fast-bought Kahless as "We will change him soon... no, we wouldn't tell when."

Captain Steele

Well I didn't waste a citation so I was super pumped about the gift!

But I do empathize with you guys who wasted a lot of honor

[SSR] GTMET

I am so freaking pissed now, I saved up and poured 50k honor into him and now you give us a 5th? Do you see how angry this makes us? I am submitting a ticket for my honor back

Secret Journey

Me too...maybe it shoulda been a Crusher/Troi/Picard choice on this one...

Capt. Chaos

Would have been thrilled to get him at the start of the mega event. Now, not so much.

Bigstupidgrin

50K honor spent club member here...

For Cardassia

I needed that last star on Picard, but I also would have preferred a citation. Makes more sense.

That!

That's a brilliant Idea that makes buckets of sense!

I now blame you for not suggesting it BEFORE they sent out this gift.

Same.

I'm grateful. In reflection, I an see how a citation would have made sense. I still would have used it on Gun Show Picard.

dwhisper

I'm not grateful in the slightest. Like most players that had gotten their 4 event Picards, I already went about finishing him (a merit in my case). So now they messed up the event ending and managed to mess up their sorry/not-sorry even worse.

[IPA] Markas

I have my bucket on my head.

Giving a legend away is nice. Thanks DB.

Giving a legend to a lot of players who already have it immortalized is not well-thought-out. Mine will be going straight into the airlock.

Perhaps the next time a citation or a legend behold would work out better.

Stygian

Please can we do something about this - it’s grossly unfair to those that doubled-up or used a citation.

Now there's a good idea, send that behold to everybody's mailbox.

Shan? Are you listening to the people who pay the bills?

I am 100% done spending unless they give us citations instead. This is just ridiculous and unfair to the people that spend to get a 5 star

Sirreadsalot

You got to be kidding me. I spent 50k honor to immortalize him for this final leg. Then after a tumultuous ending, here you go, something almost everyone in the top 2000 would have had fused completely to try to finish in the top of this event. I spent extra on packs for the honor alone, so I would have him fully fused. I have never complained about any free anything, but after spending so much on the game to fully fuse this character to place well in the event, bang a swift kick in the knee. I have never felt so upset at what would normally be a great gift from DB. The way the Mega events have been set up it forces people who spend money to do so to get the fifth star. We expect to pay money, but after we spend the money, giving us a useless legendary is disappointing to say the least.

Amphistaff

What's the point of giving out a copy of the mega-event crew AFTER the event is over? There's no point to this nonsense. As others have said, give a legendary citation or even a legendary behold if you want to be a bit cheap. But this is a real slap in the face to folks who spent $25 on the DYS offer or used a citation the first week to help out the rest of the month. This was not thought out at all or is deliberately meant to make players mad.

The Great Gornholio

I spent $24.99 to Fully Fuse him! This is complete and utter garbage. DB: Did you even think about those of us who spent real money or honor already????

+1,000 to THIS!! This goes beyond merely tone-deaf and is hugely insulting.

AFTER taking our $$$ to double-up Picard or we've burned hard-earned Honor to give Picard his 5th star -- an action customary by a vast majority of players with any mega-event legendary -- you kick us in the nuts by giving away a free one?!?

This speaks volumes of how completely out of touch you are with how the game is played, and utter lack of any regard of your own customers.

[S47] ELiL

DB being DB.
Lots of people, who spent 50k honor, get 550 back.

Plasma

Useless compensation isn't compensation . You can keep minor Picard I wasted $25 . Not anymore I'm just going to be a monthly card player

srhrobhudsah

I was going crazy on the galaxy part to get troi after not pulling in the 4 packs I bought. **tsk tsk** to miss out and get something that I already finished as comp

You know, it had to be that DB didn't want to give away something they perceived as having value, and they were willing to take the backlash and expect that it won't actually affect anybody's spending habits.
