oaceen Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) That is fantastic. yeah, it's one of the best changes they could have done imo. that and letting everyone buy outrage for 1c so they can more accurately show how they feel about the dye pricepoints Edited September 4, 2013 by oaceen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobHinkle Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 You are in fact reading the patch notes correctly. We really felt like these cool down Legacy Unlocks were underwhelming as they were, and wanted to really pep up their bonuses (along with an extra kicker for subscribers). Have fun fleet passing!

Except not everyone has a smart phone or app-using device. Even if I did, I'd prefer the physical security key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto, I prefer having the physical copy, besides it was what...3 bucks? Oh noez On the other hand, that is very awesome to hear Rob, thank you for the awesome addition, makes me happy I'm a sub.

I also have the security key for my blizzard account (no I don't play WOW silly) and another one for my remote work login. I'm not going to carry around 3 key fobs with me wherever I go, but yet I always have my phone with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well unless you only use the phone for logging into the game I guess... Having lost four tokens from another MMO that uses these (I won't mention it, because uttering its name could earn it new subscribers, and we don't want that) I am tickled pink about being able to use it on my phone. One of those times, I kid you not, I fumbled that key fob for a good two seconds before it landed in my large cup of soda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captpickles Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) I vastly of approve this change.. now if we only had a "orbital drop ship pass" that would take us *back* to where we just "*fleeted from*" .... i even agree to a 1 hour time on that. It would allow a leveler to fleet out, get gear off the gtn or clear the gear he/she has collected and "drop" back where they left off. Fix the RED text.

This is awesome. Maybe not SSSP awesome, or free Varactyl mount awesome, but still awesome. It gives me a reason to actually unlock these cooldown reductions, as before they were just meh. For me, it'll be a great little time saver, as I like to log out in the VIP room at the fleet for convenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I'm at work, or a friend's house, or on the road in the airport, I may not have the key fob with me / easily accessible. On the other hand, I always have my phone. But different strokes for different folks. My reasons for preferring the app version are good enough for me. Your reasons for preferring the physical key are good enough for you.

OmenQ Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Besides, with the key a person gets a 100 coin bonus. To me that more than makes up for any losses I had from buying passes. No matter if you prefer the physical key or the app, this is the real reason to have a security key. Free cartel coins. Oh, and less chance of someone taking over your account, that's important too.

Alec_Fortescue Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Can we get some other extra-useful-mega-wanted-convenience item in the security key vendor, now that fleet passes are useless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrodieSolo Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) One thing I did notice though, is that the fleet pass reductions are only unlockable with credits 100k, 200k and 300k and no option for cartel coins. Is that an oversight or intended? Edited September 4, 2013 by BrodieSolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
