    Right, and the people who uninstalled the game for years and just recently came back- shouldn’t be considered “veterans” either.
    They made the account day 1 the account is a vet simple as
    You’re right and I won’t argue that, I just think Kabam could’ve done something more for players starting early 2015 too.

    They did... You get a a 9 year pic and title.
    No, you get a title. You don’t get a picture, besides the ones for beta players (played during a beta) and the 10 year anniversary one, that everyone else gets.

    You get a profile picture with "9" and a title.

    The 10 profile picture was what everyone got for the 10 year anniversary, and the “beyonder title” was the title you got for your account being 9 years old.
    That’s the same one I got also.

    Also @DNA3000 I kinda wish you hadn’t commented here, this wasn’t supposed to blow up like this.
    I was just venting my frustration at the time, but now I have 3 pages worth of replies here.
    You made me semi-popular, but not in a good way.
    Another lesson learned I suppose. Next time, go to the gym or go for a run- rather than posting here. Haha

    Yep, same here. It’s all good though, I’m not too worried about the veteran title.
    I’m gonna get that sweet sweet “Necromaster” title

    I got a Battlerealm Beyonder title.

    I've also tried to request my account creation date because I swear I started in December but not launch. But my first purchases were in in 2015. So now I am questioning my entire existence.

    Nvm... found the 10yr profile picture.

    The year profile is to showcase game age as its 10 the profile u get is the 10 only not how old the account actually is only the title is account age

    @Buttehrs Man, I don't know if you're referring to this title. I had a doubt yesterday if it was exclusive in some way or something, but I don't know very well. I was there since the game came out on injustice mobile and I liked the mcoc better, but I see that several people don't have it. Just because the game doesn't take a certain amount of time, sorry for that part but a title is one thing and your skill is another, don't take it too hard, just relax.

  • KAKemboROGSKEKAKemboROGSKE Member Posts: 19

    I started January 30th 2015 so missed the cool veteran title bit of a kick in the teeth seeing I've played everyday since starting

    The game released on Dec 10th 2014.. You started playing 1.5 months AFTER the game started.... this is like saying you should be Valiant when you're Paragon but missing 2 rank 3 7*'s.
    ah yes if only the player base had the big brain idea to tap into mcoc and install it at the exact time it released, because surely with how acccount age works, kabam wouldn't use it to just present a middle finger to almost everyone who actually invested into this game, even those specifically whom this title is supposed to go to.

    Why from what I have seen so far, any one who got (FiC) surely have stuck through the game from 2014 till now through the ups and downs, they are all respected members of the community that kabam knows of, they can practically name them of the top of their head, or at the very list have a list that highlights them (LOL)

    - I think you can see where your line of thought is going with this, again, make no mistake this is both the most hilarious thing ever, and the biggest middle finger I seen in ages from kabam.
    _ also just so I don't quote your other comment, its just the title, the pic was universal for the 9 year anni, which again remember (account age)

    Grats man, well deserved, perhaps in an alternate time line, if kabam did count folks like you then its definitely would have been a fair, well earned reward that suits the 10 year anni, but alas.
    Also just to quickly point out, the implication of the title and what it represents is one of the biggest gripes folks may have about it, that and how janky it is to some folks who still have yet to actually be able to show it, and even those who are meant to have it (my friend getting shafted having both his legend and veteran banner not show with this new update)

    I started playing December 19, 2014 - any idea why I received the nine year “beyonder” title as opposed to the veteran badge?

    So, you're born on December 10th. It's November 10th now. Are you 1 year old or almost a year old? Do you get your birthday party on November 10th and claim you're 1?

    When you go to buy alcohol, here in the states you must be 21, if you're a month away, do the stores let you buy it because you're close enough?

    When you are questing in MCOC and you have 6 defenders and the boss, why doesn't the game give you the quest rewards after the 6th defenders was downed? Why do I have to take the boss down too?

    There's plenty of trophy stores out there. But yourself a participation trophy so you can feel better.

    Middle finger lol how Gen Z of you.

    My point, exactly. Thank you.
    I’ve invested time, money, and I’ve even helped to build some ally’s from scratch- or helped lead them to brighter futures. Do I expect anything in return for that? Of course not.
    I did it just to help, but to see all these “old school” players at conqueror, uncollected, etc have a sick custom banner and title just for logging back in- even though they dropped the game entirely for a while?
    THATS the middle finger from Kabam right there, I’m over it now- but that’s my thoughts on it.

    The middle finger to you is that people who met the requirements of the title get the items but you didn't meet the requirements but feel your accomplishments should somehow back date when you started playing? If this isn't the definition of entitlement, I don't know what is.

    So, you're born on December 10th. It's November 10th now. Are you 1 year old or almost a year old? Do you get your birthday party on November 10th and claim you're 1?

    Middle finger lol how Gen Z of you.
    My man I don't know if you are dumb, playing dumb or pretend to play dumb, nothing you said just now even came remotely close to what I just commented on, what are you talking about? have you actually used your brain before you typed your reply?
    The main points I am talking about are exactly what you somehow think I am whining about, this is the most participation trophy a trophy could ever be, (FiC) or veteran is legit given to those who just downloaded the game from the start, and are now being equated to those who played the game, big massive difference that seems to escape your little brain, there can be no other better made title to exist that highlights how kabam can't just think for a second about the systems they made (account age), using your examples, since this is the 10 year anniversary, why not just meme further and give everyone a participation trophy just for downloading the game right now? its just a funny notion that escapes you, because those who have played the game since 2014 and still play till today, are given the same measure of congratulations as those who just installed the game since 2014, uninstalled it, and now reinstalled it for the 2024 10 year anni.

    Also my man please do your best from this point onward to avoid being cringe "Middle finger lol how gen z of you" amazing how you fail to see the ironic implication (FiC) presents, and by all means, read good my man, just read.

    Amazing how confusing this thing is, THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT HERE, just an account aged from 2014, that is it, there is no accomplishment to be earned here when the line separating who got it should have been big, but it is so small it is hilarious, you really need to check your global chat to see what I am talking about, it seems you just did not see on hand how interesting the actual results have been ever since (FiC) got released

    Or, hear me out, get the title next year on your 10th anniversary? Not that big a deal.

    You’re right it’s not that big of a deal, but it’s just a mild bit annoying- that a few months is the difference between a banner title and no banner title. That’s all I’m saying.
    If it wasn’t a big deal to you, you wouldn’t be in here crying to us about it.

    I did it just to help, but to see all these “old school” players at conqueror, uncollected, etc have a sick custom banner and title just for logging back in- even though they dropped the game entirely for a while?
    THATS the middle finger from Kabam right there, I’m over it now- but that’s my thoughts on it.
    All day crying here about that title .. . i will donate that title to you without banner cuz i lost it last night .. :)) but please just get over it .. (sorry my bad english) im gonna email kabam to remove the title from me and give it to you . NOW SMILE PLEASE ;-)
    LMAO, I love the different takes here, but yours is special because it legit highlights how mcoc players need to buy new glasses to be able to read correctly, like really, all the comments being posted, and this is what your end conclusion to the thread is, that with everything you read going to your head only to arrive at this line of thought: "He is whining too much, oh how pitiful it is, truly something isn't worth the hassle because [I] got it, this guy is just making a big fuss, truly a laughable predicament, allow me to subtly gatekeep like almost all mcoc players do and will continue to do, because why not"

    You good sir are a part of the special breed, for better or worst.

    ah yes if only the player base had the big brain idea to tap into mcoc and install it at the exact time it released, because surely with how acccount age works, kabam wouldn't use it to just present a middle finger to almost everyone who actually invested into this game, even those specifically whom this title is supposed to go to.

    The middle finger to you is that people who met the requirements of the title get the items but you didn't meet the requirements but feel your accomplishments should somehow back date when you started playing? If this isn't the definition of entitlement, I don't know what is.
    Amazing how confusing this thing is, THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT HERE, just an account aged from 2014, that is it, there is no accomplishment to be earned here when the line separating who got it should have been big, but it is so small it is hilarious, you really need to check your global chat to see what I am talking about, it seems you just did not see on hand how interesting the actual results have been ever since (FiC) got released
    “It made global chat angry” is the least convincing argument I’ve ever heard for anything ever.

    People keep saying it “should” be this or it should be that like this is supposed to be self-evident, but we’re talking about a title. A purely cosmetic thing. Why *shouldn’t* there be a title that identifies a player as a first week player, or a first day player, or a first hour player. Why are those things inherently wrong? Why should it be wrong for a game to identify its very earliest players?

    Most online games these days offer *actual rewards* for the players that sign up in the first week or so. Actual valuable rewards that can put them at a significant advantage. I played an MMO once where all the beta testers were given head start admission to the game, where for the first week they had the game all to themselves. A bunch of us informally teamed up to race to the level cap, so that on day one when the game launched we were already at max level sitting at the top of the game. And there’s nothing noteworthy about that story, it happens all the time to this day.

    The title is just a statement of fact. These players were here from the beginning. It offers them no power, no advantages, no privileges. It just says they were here from the start, because they were here from the start. And the fact that some people are getting upset over it is honestly bewildering to me. Or rather, I feel it should be bewildering, but twenty-plus years of online gaming and forty-plus years of being on the internet have completely inoculated me from having any specific expectations in this regard. What it is, is sad. Sad that we can’t just allow some players to have even the tiniest bit of recognition for anything, without demanding that everyone else, or at least themselves, be allowed to get in on it.

    I am not a launch week player. I will never be a launch week player, and I can never earn being a launch day player, because short of a time machine that’s impossible. It is not unfair that that is impossible. It just is. It is no more unfair that I cannot earn being a launch week player than it is unfair that people who lived in the 1600s were not given the opportunity to play MCOC.

    A little bit of envy powers games like this. It is intended that we see what others have and then strive to get it ourselves. But not everything is achievable by everyone, and players of these kinds of games have to accept that. Or quit. Because no amount of complaining about it will ever change that. The day the developers start ascending to those kinds of requests is the day the devs lose the ability to manage the game properly, because if you’re going to cave in on a mere title, you’re going to cave on the more important stuff. You’re going to give in to players who say Paragon takes too long to achieve, that Necropolis is too hard to complete. That players should get what ever they want even if they claim the requirements are impossible for them. When the devs can’t just say “some will get this, some won’t” that’s the end of the game.

    And it starts with the little stuff, precisely because if you can’t do it when it doesn’t matter, you won’t be able to when it does.

    So, you're born on December 10th. It's November 10th now. Are you 1 year old or almost a year old? Do you get your birthday party on November 10th and claim you're 1?

    When you go to buy alcohol, here in the states you must be 21, if you're a month away, do the stores let you buy it because you're close enough?

    When you are questing in MCOC and you have 6 defenders and the boss, why doesn't the game give you the quest rewards after the 6th defenders was downed? Why do I have to take the boss down too?

    There's plenty of trophy stores out there. But yourself a participation trophy so you can feel better.

    Middle finger lol how Gen Z of you.
    My man I don't know if you are dumb, playing dumb or pretend to play dumb, nothing you said just now even came remotely close to what I just commented on, what are you talking about? have you actually used your brain before you typed your reply?
    The main points I am talking about are exactly what you somehow think I am whining about, this is the most participation trophy a trophy could ever be, (FiC) or veteran is legit given to those who just downloaded the game from the start, and are now being equated to those who played the game, big massive difference that seems to escape your little brain, there can be no other better made title to exist that highlights how kabam can't just think for a second about the systems they made (account age), using your examples, since this is the 10 year anniversary, why not just meme further and give everyone a participation trophy just for downloading the game right now? its just a funny notion that escapes you, because those who have played the game since 2014 and still play till today, are given the same measure of congratulations as those who just installed the game since 2014, uninstalled it, and now reinstalled it for the 2024 10 year anni.

    Also my man please do your best from this point onward to avoid being cringe "Middle finger lol how gen z of you" amazing how you fail to see the ironic implication (FiC) presents, and by all means, read good my man, just read.
    It's a title

    For having

    An account

    Since launch

    In 2014.

    It doesn't matter what you've done with your account from 2014. It doesn't matter if all you've done is login every day straight and not play a single quest.

    There isn't any sort of merit based requirement for the title. I don't know why you think you earned it more than another person. You get the title for having your account created when the game started. That's it. Nothing else matters.

    Do you understand yet? I can write it in crayon if it helps you understand better.

    Needing to have your account created at launch is a requirement.

    But you and OP seem to think that because you're roster and in-game accomplishments should somehow earn you the title.

    You'll never get the title and it makes my cold dead heart happy that you've put this much effort into crying about it.

    And it starts with the little stuff, precisely because if you can’t do it when it doesn’t matter, you won’t be able to when it does.
    I am surprised every single time I see one of your comments I question whether or not you played the game, if you have engaged in it or actually thought about any of its inherent designs, how you became the "Voice of mcoc players" as kabam said it is beyond me specially with how big your narrow view points are.

    let me once again dissect everything you just said one point at a time

    - "It made global chat angry" it seems you too have not checked your eye doctor nor have you checked your ability to read, and it also seems you didn't bother to see how global chat works because if you had you would know I didn't even mention anyone being angry, I was making reference to the disparity now present and the amusement of it all, and how it memes on quite a bit of things mainly those who have actually played the game from start till now.
    - it is evident, easy to identify, and very clear, where your confusion stems from, I can't tell, unless your idea of a veteran is someone who installed the game in 2014, uninstalled it, and installed it in 2024, it is very much the antithesis of the very supposed purpose of (FiC) specially with who actually got it, again you need to understand that account age is not equal to playtime spent, you need to see with your own eyes who got awarded (FiC), and no this is not pure cosmetic, this is something that fundamentality touches on the very core ideas that mcoc players have cultivated over the years, and why it is in practice, welp I don't want to say wrong, but counter to everything players have been conditioned to, and that is the many concepts of worth, high rating, special titles, the grind, the milestones and progressions and for how unfortunate it is, the over all gatekeeping that plagues this community since the dawn of time, if this was a title that lets say was truly cosmetic in nature like you said, then there would have been no issue, but if it is design points invalidates not only the legend title, but also mythic? where in those who worked for those titles, and those who actually been in game since the start are now equated to people whose achievement is downloading the game since the start? then what was the point of the previous 2023 banquet end reward of mythic 1#? what was the point of the necropolis speed run for the mythic titles? what is going to be the point for this year mythic title (if they decide to do it), what will be the point of reaching high level, if its difference to the starting point is not that much? this specially affects banquet rank rewards because without the big rewards that highlights top player, what will they spend money on? more rank up mats and champions they will get eventually? a leaderboard that no one checks? The very idea of getting to the top and grinding is what keeps players invested, the progression toward something, whether it is in the past or the future should be rewarding to those who strive for it, not those who so happen to just stumbled on the game during a specific time, now if this has been a one of a kind coloured title that was just fancy then there would be nothing wrong with it, if it is core design didn't touch on ideas that folks were accustomed to, then it there would be nothing wrong with it, but alas
    - that depends on the game, what the actual rewards are, and how the grind or gameplay loop is, most sign up rewards I seen in games are significant and nice, but not too game breaking that they invalidate upcoming players or players who actually put time and effort whether in F2P model games or paid ones
    - And so I say again, have you played the game DNA? if so how long, and if for long please for the love of all that is great do check global, do check who it is (FiC) is awarded to, because if it is just as you said, if this was just a statement of fact, an accolade for only those who been from day one and been in game through the ups and downs. if this was for the actual veterans of mcoc, then that is fantastic, would you imagine how brilliant that would, a reward fitting for those who stayed with the game from start to finish, truly well worth, truly very admirable, and truly very on the point, but it is not, it is simply not a reward for those who stuck through the game who been there from the beginning, while players who as you said deserve recognition may get (FiC), they will get it along side those who once again, only accomplishment for getting it is just downloading the game once then leaving only to come back again during the 10 year anniversary, I will say this time and time again, account age in mcoc does not equal time spent, it is simply impossible to tell the difference if you used account age, you would have to check two things, obvious prestige, and if someone collected all the anniversary titles (best method I know of to find out), because again the line separating the two type of players whom the (FiC) went to is small, it is beyond small, it should be massive, make no mistake, this does not validate the true veterans, it is simply a funny troll move by kabam.
    - again not launch week, account age, I do wonder how many people actually been playing mcoc from launch till now though.
    - And yes I agree with you, again striving toward a goal, the difference between tiers and level of players, the inherent feeling and want to progress and achieve all that the game offers, even if some things may not be *possible* due to various reasons, is what fuels players to play games, and enjoy them, to reach the pinnacle and the top of the top in games is a very hard and difficult but ultimately rewarding experience for the player, and thus my whole tirade is just to point at the purpose, impact, and overall design flaw that (FiC) presents, because imagine if you will, at any game, reaching the top rewards you with a nice prize, that is just there to showcase your accomplishments, and validate your time and efforts, now imagine if you will that someone who, just appeared, did nothing, was given a prize, so similar it is indistinguishable from yours, would that make any sense? and no mistake mcoc is built on the very concept and ideas of these fancy top rewards for those who grind for it, and make no mistake, this is the ultimate troll move kabam could have ever done.
    - but oh welp this is just a funny situation that I have never seen any game do, and will continue to be funny specially when upcoming banquet comes, because welp at that point it will just be sad.

    _ also just so I don't quote your other comment, its just the title, the pic was universal for the 9 year anni, which again remember (account age)
    My point, exactly. Thank you.
    I’ve invested time, money, and I’ve even helped to build some ally’s from scratch- or helped lead them to brighter futures. Do I expect anything in return for that? Of course not.
    I did it just to help, but to see all these “old school” players at conqueror, uncollected, etc have a sick custom banner and title just for logging back in- even though they dropped the game entirely for a while?
    THATS the middle finger from Kabam right there, I’m over it now- but that’s my thoughts on it.
    The middle finger to you is that people who met the requirements of the title get the items but you didn't meet the requirements but feel your accomplishments should somehow back date when you started playing? If this isn't the definition of entitlement, I don't know what is.
    Amazing how confusing this thing is, THERE IS NO REQUIREMENT HERE, just an account aged from 2014, that is it, there is no accomplishment to be earned here when the line separating who got it should have been big, but it is so small it is hilarious, you really need to check your global chat to see what I am talking about, it seems you just did not see on hand how interesting the actual results have been ever since (FiC) got released
    Needing to have your account created at launch is a requirement.

    But you and OP seem to think that because you're roster and in-game accomplishments should somehow earn you the title.

    You'll never get the title and it makes my cold dead heart happy that you've put this much effort into crying about it.
    OMG your stupid brain baffles me on levels so beyond this world it is unreal, I keep wondering why I don't keep up with fourm and this is why, the amount intelligence dropping right now from me every time I read something so goofy from your comments is unbelievable.

    When have I ever stated that I wanted this title? have I not been just pointing out what (FiC) is, who gets it, and what its implications are? OP main point is that because he missed the time period by a few months he won't be eligible which is unfortunate but true, and upon further thinking everything it would make sense if (FiC) and (OwE) switched places to fix that, and voila end of convo, perfect solution.

    I like how I am reviving your cold dead heart, and make it happy somehow, it fills me with a sense of pride, but I must point out how it baffles me in mcoc fourm where the response to something you don't like or you don't want to admit to is "crying and whining" which is odd since you know what would the point of discussions be, why have threads then, because at that point in a way everyone is crying and whining, heck your use of crying and whining has become just crying and whining, creating a perfect spiral, amazing job, great work mcoc fourm keep it up.
