To bad the loyalty points are not right
It's not right, that a years sub only gives you 84k loyalty points. Do you know it takes 600k to get to the next tier? That would mean around 1000 euro's to get the next tier in loyalty? That's just plain wrong! I send multiple e-mails to their company and got the same answer over and over and over again. Only 7k for a months sub. So.....it will just be never to get to the next tier, as I am not going to spend 1000 euros to get to it! People be aware, that this once nice company has tearned to extorsion side. It cant even be said its the money side, as all companies need to make money, but this is just not right.

Being a patron these days, is just not worth it anymore. After this years sub I will quit being a patron and just visit once in a while. Even the stuff you get from the patron weekly is bad. The chance of something nice coming out of their boxes is bad.

I agree, earning loyality is way too expensive now compared to what it used to be.

I've spent 400 euros and I'm on the second bar of Orange tier.
There are ways to make your Gems and purchases more valuable though, but that shouldn't be needed.
I spent 5000 gems yesterday and the slider barely moved lol.

Indeed! It is bad and a bad message to new players too. Who would want to spend money, if you can't even get nice stuff for it.

I just noticed that the scaling is ridicelous.

  • Green Tier: 30 000
  • Blue Tier: 90 000
  • Purple Tier: 180 000

    Not too crazy, a triple increase and then a double.

  • Orange Tier: 600 000

    The ♥♥♥♥ happened.

  • Red Tier: 1 200 000

    Now we're doubling a tripled sum again

  • Black Tier: 2 800 000

  • Silver Tier: 4 100 000

    Back in 2014 the max Tier was red and it would cost you $2,200.
    That's roughly $8000 for Silver Tier.

    And you get like 7000 points per month of Patron which means you need to be subscribed for several decades.

Yep, had an official response saying its 7000 points a month, so to get to 600k you would need a whole lot of cash. It used to be so much easier. Now we got screwed by the money machine. I am not spending that amount of cash on this game.

Such a shame how down hill this game has gone. I was thinking of installing it again.
I'm not sure now. Loyalty ? more like down the drain now.

Well, the game is fun, I just got a years sub for around 83 euro's. So, it was cheap for an online game and it gives nice benefits, but the loyalty points is a shame. The new addon isnt that great either. It's just not the same fibe as in the old parts.

I'm actually not interested in spending money on boosting my loyalty when it's unrealistic for me to even advance to the next tier without dumping half a months salary for a 10% EXP boost as reward.
I understand that the loyalty rewards are for those who REAAAALLY dump their money into the game, but people who maybe spend $10 occasionaly per week end up getting nothing other than the contents of a Supply Crate (which tend to be garbage).
Costumes / cosmetics also aren't great.

I've been playing for 4 years on and off, regularly slipping some coins into Trion's pockets 'cus I want them to keep going with the game, but I don't feel appriciated :( I iz special snowflake notice me senpai.

Patron should reward way more as it signals a steady income and will to support.
Perhaps even just add a loyalty multiplier for continious months subscribed so that the longer you subscribe the more rewarding it is, making players want to keep up streaks and such.

I dunno, current business model is pretty trash for the casuals.

But its fun getting the extra xp and coins. But then, selling a REX or two gives you all the coin you need.

Welcome to the poor managment of "power creep".

If we talking about trino. Everything money for them so you shouldn't be shocked.

Yeah, its sad. I bought the primalist and another souls pack and got ♥♥♥♥♥♥ loyalty. I get more from the daily than I get from the money!
