Not ranting, just my opinion (Which might be unpopular), but... I am honestly not a fan of this move. Mind you, I barely touched 3.17.1 as I was too busy with work... And I still got almost SIX million? Some folks got BILLIONS! Meanwhile, commodity traders still make peanuts trying to earn in game honestly. But.... Here is your Billion UEC participation trophy. I'm sorry, but definitely not a fan of this. I think the 100K bonus for Xenothreat participation was a lot better. 100K is enough. It allows you get a good head start and farm your uec back. But this is just silly. It's no big deal, we'll probably get a wipe in 3.18. But I hope this won't be a recurring thing. Encourage players to earn UEC through the INGAME activities. Not give them free UECs participation trophies. NOTE: Again, I'm just giving my opinion. 317.2 is a great transition patch. Love everything about it. I'm just not a fan of the stipend. I'm sure many will disagree and that's fine. But I'm entitled to share my opinion about it. I just think that giving out MILLIONS for barely logging in is a bit... well... insane? :slightly_smiling_face: EDIT 2: Alright the billion mark might not be a thing, was some org mate jocking about it, but a couple million just for login in in a bit is still too much.
