Phew…slogged through that video…(that overexcited and overhyped presentation tone is an instant turnoff for me, strikes as fake as a fake fake, and initiates automatic backlash. Brr…thank heaven’s it was only five minutes long.)
One instant red flag that promptly came up - don’t worry, there are plenty of PvP related stuff still to come… really? Are you serious? And, of course, all of that stuff has been years into pipeline so - none of our feedback has been or ever will be taken into account when rolling it out. Thank you for being so considerate and attentive listeners!
EDIT. Okay, maybe this was just a nightmare scenario and I did mishear things. Thanks for pointing that out.
Summary
Number two - you’re basically destroying all the alliance loyalty ranks with VP and loyalty will reset to zero.
Now there is only one rank that matters (Legionary VIII) and that brings up the most terrible point - you are screwing us out of one day of gold marks from Citadel Rewards, aren’t you?
Correct me, if I’m wrong, oh, please, do; but right now it looks like this:
We win our Citadel Wars on Monday, so on Tuesday that one-time gold mark rewards for winning five battles is available.
In order to claim said reward player must be of rank Legionary VIII.
Legionary VIII requires spending 2 days in the alliance.
As we start Monday with 0 days spent in the alliance (because of the season reset), Tuesday reset bring it to 1 day and Wednesday reset brings it to 2 days at which point claiming gold mark rewards becomes possible, but - 24 hour period of claiming rewards for Monday’s victory has already ended by that time.
So…right now it looks like either you don’t know and can’t follow what is happening or it is a deliberate F-U-I-T-A move.
However, VP reset to zero still makes alliance ranks sort of pointless for, likely, most of players.
I don’t know how far up the ladder one must be to get even one daily gold mark and, judging by where I’m at now, one should probably play PvP exclusively to get there.
(Plus, imagine other criticisms - like, for example, what looks like absolutely awful burning mark chests - reiterated here.)
