Striped Senche and the Loyalty Reward Program

Teixeira · March 2015

Hello,

I already read the post about the loyalty program, however I would like to open a discussion about it.

I bought the elder scroll online in the pre-order (jan/2014) and I have been playing and paying since that, I only stopped paying during my vacation and also by study questions, because that I only have nine months of subscriptions and I won’t receive the only good reward, the Striped Senche mount. I bought in the pre-order because I love that game and thinking that I would receive a benefit that only who did the same would, and now it can be purchased (any race any alliance).
Buying in the pre-order and playing for a year what I received back? 3 *** rewards that I’ll never use. Two *** pets and a jester clothing to remember me how idiot I was for never gave up the game.

I don’t pretend stop playing, I love this game. I’ll still buying the DLCs. I just think that it’s not fair with me, and with who paid for so long, received nothing for that. If you don’t count the free 30 days you should count who bought in the pre-order.

As I said, I won’t stop playing, but I’m really sad with it. The ESO team should consider who bought in the pre-order and never gave up the game.

I really like to have received the tiger mount, but more than that I think that is a consideration question with the veterans.

Calm down. You'll be able to buy other senche mounts "soon".

The mounts coming to the crown store will look better then the free reward one. If you are still a sub, you will be able to get those mounts using your 1500 a month that comes with the sub.

I know about the coming senche mounts but its a matter of consideration. Who bought in the pre-order and never gave up the game have nothing differente then who are going to start.

This forum already went through the 5 stages of grief on this Topic. You seem to be on stage 3:bargainIng. You only have two stages until acceptance.

Except you did. You left the game for over a month. Get over it and save some of your crowns for a senche from the crown store, where reskins will appear eventually.

This might be my favorite reply ever.

Thats not quite correct.Person A, who started pre-order,payed every month is rewarded with X crowns. Now let's take a look at person B who started one day before b2p and bought same amount of days, and he is rewarded with Y crowns. Compare X and Y.

First you were never promised anything "extra" from the pre-order. You got exactly what you paid for. Second, I'm not sure if you are complaining that because you stopped your sub, now you can't get the mount that is a reward for having NO brakes in your sub. Or that another mount will be added that is a different color. Finally, you get something extra, something that you didn't pay for and because it's not enough, you complain. This is the problem with loyalty rewards, you paid for the game and paid a sub to "play" the game. You have received exactly what you have paid for and then some.

I never got a promise of anything extra. I've been asking if they would make the any race any alliance available to people who didn't preorder for a while, because it allows me to recruit for my guild a little better, and people still get to play the race they want to play but on the same faction as the guild.

Now, I never stopped paying for the game, still retain a subscription. Why do you deserve something better than I do, because I never quit paying or playing?

In fact, should I start believing that my words are more relevant than yours, because I never stopped playing? So I should have a better say on that pre-order bonus? The thing is, I don't think that way. We're all here playing a game, and we all benefit from having everyone else here.

It's in the crown store. Any race any alliance thing.

I'm in the same boat as you- I pre-ordered but only 9 months paid. I didn't get the senche, but I don't meet the criteria so I'm not bothered. Everyone has great stories as to why they deserve to get the mount even if they didn't have 300 paid time on their account. Me, my computer just wasn't good enough so I canceled my subscription for a bit as I saved and got a new gaming laptop. It's not because I didn't want to play, but I don't meet the criteria for the senche so that's that. As others have mentioned, there will be more senche in the store.

But I disagree that the other loyalty rewards weren't good. I LOVE the dwarven sphere. I like it more than the senche.

Indeed. I like it when he stops to scratch his butt.

This was discussed at length in the forums and clarified by ZOS. You only needed to have bought 300 days game time by the deadline, it didn't have to be *used up* game time. So you could subscribe for a few more months or stack up on game time cards from online stores. Many people did that. This one's on you, friend

It's more than a little gross when he eats it afterwards.

@Teixeira - Your answer is in your post. You took time off for vacation and for school. ZoS does not reward people with divided loyalties, you are supposed to dedicate every moment of your life to grinding the various grinds ZoS has instituted.
