Excuse me PSU, but did I miss something? No posts on this that I saw. Please don't think I'm crazy.

I don't know what this is for or where it came from other than, well, Higby.
Check your email! Do you have it?

Yup,

Kind of amazing because I haven't played since July. :mad:

Thieves! Filthy thieves stole my computer!

Now, can we sort out the armor so I can wear this decal and my rank insignia...

The decal is just a cheap reason to send everbody a mail that should bring us back to the game. It has nothing to do with our loyality in the past. I think everbody who made an account got the decal.

Not sure what the criteria are for this decal.

I got the email. My first thought was "hey, that's a nice idea". Then I saw that it was a decal and I thought "what a pitiful incentive to try and get people playing again".

I'm not interested in yet another decal, yet another helmet or yet another camo. I'd like a game that runs well that gives me some sense of accomplishment for playing. I have no desire to go capture Mao tech plant for the 456th time.

did spend some smedybux, those 170 that you got for logging in those two games from SOE. Got the loyal soldiah bundle because of that as well so that's probably not a criteria

I got that decal too, I thinks its because you post on the roadmap forums with some great ideas.

I dont think it have anything to do with you not playing for a long time. Cause I am playing every other day still.

I guess everybody with an account should get it. They simply screwed it up as always. Therefore some players have to write to cs first. Lets see if somebody is still working in cs after this huge layoff...

thanks for the nice decal SOE :)

though it would be nicer to be able to use them in conjuncture with my composite armour

Got the e-mail. I have a premium Sub, bought SC once or twice during double sales a while ago and haven't posted on the official forums for quite some time. A few upvotes and downvotes on the Roadmap, again a while back.

Not quite sure what entitles you to the decal, but the conditions seem to sweep large apparently.

Well that armour they added which is composite minus shoulders is presumably their decal workaround.

Not really a workaround if that's the case:p
"Hey, buy this extra armour that's almost exactly like your previous armour except you can see your decal!"

I found mine today when I looked in my Junk Folder *serious*. Some may want to check there or the Trash Folder for the e-mail.

I haven't played for about 2 weeks. I didn't get it.

I got the decail.
Played a lot, spended a lot of SC.
Don´t recall posting on the Roadmap forum. Maybe I did.
Don´t know anyone else who got it.

It really does seem random.

SOE's prime motivation for player seems to be decals. Even this whole WDS thing is all about a decal.

No e-mail or decal here...

Perhaps I've not been a premium member for long enough.

Ah well

I have Auraxiam level loyalty and I have bought a fuck ton of SC over the last 6 months.

I had just assumed thats why I got the decal.

So do I, and so do a lot of other people. They haven't got anything.

I'm starting to believe that this might actually be random...

Have any new players gotten this decal?

I have been around for about 7 months, and it looks like most of the other guys who got this decal have been around for awhile too.




But then again, maybe it is just random :lol:

Ditto .. Auraxium since Release and around 2k NZD Spent.

No Decal.

Got it and some I know didnt.
Only difference we had between us was forum posting.
And I wouldn't say my posts in the roadmap contained any good ideas.
But I guess you had to be in it to win it :D

I should add I'd gladly give this pos away if I could.
I would have prefered an email telling me a bug had been fixed and in doing so they had not fucked up another half dozen things in the process.

I still don't feel the slightest compunction to log in until we have a real metagame in place. An intercontinental lattice. Something, anything to give us something to fight *for*. Eye candy won't do it. Sorry.

You received this decal for submitting a bug report of some sort at some point. It is their thank you for helping out.

Oh so that's what they meant by feedback.

I did, in fact, report a bug that turned out to be PlanetSide 2 killing my video card.

I kind of hope they fix that, because that's why I'm not playing. It's killed my video card twice.

Can refute this to some extent; I've submitted several bug reports both before and after official launch, done Test Server events, had a subscription since launch and additional SC spent... and got nothing. Don't really care all that much, but an additional data point.

Could be a defective PSU. If you haven't already then get a program like GPU tweak or Afterburner, they will help you monitor temps and regulate your fans. You could also try limiting your PS2 FPS via the ini.
There haven't been many games that could make your GPU go puff because of it being overworked, and just to clarify it's not the game that's directly making your GPU go puff.

Well I've been in Planetside 2 since the time around it's full release and bought Seven Cash (because I'm in Europe with Pro7) around the beginning of summer. Just checked my email and nothing so I think they might be hating on Europe Again.
Also as mentioned above I have sent some bug reports while in game.

So yeah, they might be doing their Europe thing again.

Definitely voted, I'm pretty sure I've posted in threads as well, but not as sure on that front.

It's not a EU/NA thing; I'm in NA.

I've also logged a number of bug reports, no decal.

I got my decal, I havent used it yet, why should I. I have to admit I am a loyalist but Im to pissed off at the game right now. If it wasnt for my outfit buddy's I really think I might be playing something else. They need to add more vehicles and continents to the game, pretty decals and weapons that do the same thing arent impressing me anymore.

Tried to actually get the decal and the link in the e-mail just takes me to the Planetside 2 home page. :confused:

I did the same and I was also confused. I logged in and saw that I had the decal. No idea whether or not you actually have to claim it but I would guess that it just gets unlocked for those who got it.

Official Forums and Roadmap activity? That's my final guess.
