7th Legion Rep. We paid to work for the DLC instead of paying it to work for us.

The faction vendor supply crates? Ive gotten an OJ AR and 3 OJ shields, one of them an Ark from VBIs supply crates. I think I cashed in 700 points and got all that.

Go buy those.

I shall give them a try, thanks :-)

One more thing: There is, for sure, a problem with incursions in San Francisco. I've played more than 40h since tuesday update (it's like full time job, ~8h a day) and never seen one in San Francisco, so i can't get my 35rep for week contract, which is 5 more incursion to grind. This game is dead or soon to be dead not couse it's bad, it couse the Dev's does not give a ****.

you aint kiddin, they have fully proven that with the past dlc. it's almost like they have no idea what they are doing when it comes to this game, the community says everything that needs t obe fixed and what they dont like in the forums and they may fix some stuff but in the long run its like they have the attitude "you will play what we want you to so shutup and give us money so we can shove more feces down your throat"

I've bought more than 10 boxes from Soleptor, Top Notch and Van Bach and received only an orange shield. I've bought 4 7th Legion boxes and received the same crappy shotguns. I'm level 5,000 and I've completed all but one of the 7th Legion pursuits. I actually sent in a ticket, granted before 7th Legion and possibly the Ark Breaker DLC, and the reply I received was that I will never be compensated for the time and the money I've put into this game. I'd be happy with a decent Legendary VBI but their view of the player base does seem to be lackluster to say the least. I've whined about it before but by seeing how many times I've posted since before launch you can tell my activity on the forums is not often. But I really am done with this game. It's a shame because I love the way it plays but after the customer service response I received and thought about for quite some time, that was just uncalled for.

I've just spent a 1000 on each of those, so 30 boxes and I got a shed load of blue useless guns and a totally useless gold shield that takes over 9 seconds to recharge. What a complete waste of time :-(

there's no mentioning of ARK except that it could be on orange shield. i have 4 or 5 legendary shields and none of them bears this name.

The DLC is what it is. We can all talk about how we would of liked some kind of in game introduction to the 7th Legion. To have 7th Legion emergencies. And at least have a couple of 7th Legion troopers in Samurai gear walking around at Over Pass. For the 7th Legion to have some kind of presence.

But the DLC is what it is. I've accepted that. The DLC itself is new guns and for the most part new outfits. And for what its worth and for what it is I myself don't feel special as a 7th Legion owner. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea that I paid 10$ to have access to a bunch of outfits and head gear along with some neat guns. But like the title says it feels like we paid to work for the DLC instead of the DLC working for us.

Considering all that we have to do to earn Rep points for the 7th Legion is kinda monotonous.

Besides the listed problems that players have expressed about such as...

-waiting around for Incursions to start.

-Driving in the midst of an Incursion 'Death March' is a 50/50 chance of getting sound lag, getting disconnected, or worse of all hard freezing.

-Participating in Incursions sieges themselves is a cluster (explicit) with the amount of players doing them. Enemies barely take a half a step before dying.

But beside these problems that can be worked out, the DLC itself is more burden then reward. To wait for Incursions to start takes awhile to say the least and doing them takes a good amount of time as well. And done so all for the sake of earing 5 rep points to put towards a 100 rep point Supply Crate that has no guarantee to earn outfits that we paid for or anything else good at all.

Lets face it, the Outfits are the DLC for the players who bought 7th Legion. The Outfits are real meat and bones of the DLC that's been paid for. Yet to earn these outfits it feels like a chore with the amount of time that needs to be put in just to earn enough Rep to take a RNG gamble at trying to get them.

I would like to see Incursions give more then 5 rep points for doing them. I would like to see 7th Legion weekly contracts give 50 rep points.

I would like to see 7th Legion Outfits and Head Gear as individual items that can be bought within the 7th Legion vendor and not an RNG chance from Supply Crates.

And I would like to see all 7th Legion guns have blue and purple versions along with an Orange Amakuni Sword within the 7th Legion vendor.

The gap of feeling special between having the 7th Legion DLC and not having it is very slim considering what the DLC offers... The players who bought 7th Legion should have easier and more access to the things the DLC provides.

Well said. I mentioned some of the same observations in a thread I made in the suggestions forum.

I like the overall theme for the 7th Legion and was excited about it's implementation.

But it feels like all I purchased was a time sink, with little promise for the content rewards specific to the 7th Legion look and feel. It feels very disingenuous in the way it was implemented.

I like all of your ideas. To me, that would make the DLC feel like it was worth the investment.

You want compensation for a game you chose to play and sound like you are still playing? Seriously? They don't owe you compensation. You chose to buy the game. You chose to keep it instead of returning it the week you bought it. You still play it so clearly you have gotten plenty of time out of it. So they owe you NOTHING! They do owe the community as a whole (yes including you) some decent patches and, even though it's their game to do with as they want, better Dlc would be a good start as well.
