Dude, I´m playing since release (and even the demo) and I´m still only rank 420 (with 241h played) .. you want to know why? Because I cba to wipe ALL my characters in one class when I only want to change one characters build. I just use those reset cards instead and I promote only when I´m "forced" by some weekend event.

So much about your "veteranship".

N7 rank means nothing and banners mean only that someone has spent the past few days grinding to get a banner. That fact that you say you've played over 400 hours and have spent hundreds of dollars on packs which you can buy with credits as well and you're whining that you haven't got a banner yet... hell man you need to grow a quad.


hey there Douche man not nice to meet you...  I just said, and made this WAY clear that this was a b**** and moan....  what dont you udnerstand about that.  I could have said nothing - but saying things, and voicing opionions are things get changed. Doing nothing - produces nothing.<_<

Compensation for... a banner? o_O
Well, generally, this kind of demand is satisfied far beyond your initial wish : they might create a new banner with a new title "The whiner" with cute pink unicorns, and i'm not sure it would fit your badass N7 rank ;)

Anytime you want to quit smoke it you can...     Since when can you Buy an N7 Rank?    How can you NOT read the rest of the comment, strange human.      almost 400 hours of game time here goon! :):sick::huh:



Speaking of not reading comments, where were you when BioWare stated that they had no way of retroactively applying past play time?

As it stands, you still want all the accomplishments without doing the work.

@op

lool

i played more hours than you and only got the game a few months ago, granted i played the sp campaing for 100 hours but according to the n7hq i played 100 hours of mp, yet origin says i played over 500 hours (i suspect theres something amis wiht both of them) then again your n7 rank now goes up like a rocket when you complete challanges so soon there wont be a reason for none promoters not to have a high n7 number unless there not doing any challanges either >>

  That's kind of my point... I have already done the "work" a
few times over ;)    ...but yes, this has turned from a quick little

I know they Can’t retroactively put the kills, maps, etc….  on the file, so I was inquiring and griping
about something else.  No worries.B)

This isn't complicated:

If they have a "low" N7 rating, but a banner, it means they've worked harder than you have to get it.

I've gotten my Mathemagican Banner by actually going out of my way to play Bronze solo-games all by myself, and only using the weapon/ability I'm trying to do the challenge for. So yes I did do a Bronze game by myself only using Shockwave to kill people.

If you're just playing the game normally and aren't doing anything different, then you'll get a banner sure... but way, way more slowly that going out of your way to actually get the banner in question. If you don't use Biotics then of course the Biotic God banner won't just fall in your lap.


TLDR: Other people are working harder than you, that's all there is to it

Lets just take away your attempts to justifying it, and re-assess what you're asking.

A new system has been implimented, where everyone is on equal footing. These people you see with banners werent awarded them because they're new, they got them because they earned them. Meanwhile, you're suggesting that you should get them, or something else of its nature, because you played prior to the challenges and therefore 'Deserve it more.'

Then, lets add in your arbitary 'I have played more than anyone with a banner' statement. Which you have pulled out of your ass, because N7 rank does not dictate play time. I think you'll find many people played since the demo, and those same people redoubled their efforts upon the challenge system being released, to earn something new and pretty.

You however, sat here and whined about how others are earning interesting new rewards, and where's yours? Maybe if you went and played, you would get them.

If anything, the only people who DESERVE something in recognition of their past efforts, are the people who first beat Platinum at Comicon. And even then its kind of hazy because of the limited access to comicon anyway.

400 hours isnt even that much, compared to the real veterans of this game.

OP. I see your point BUT-

I am only N7840. I have played since the demo was released.

Here is what my manifest says now:

Time played: 481H 19M 16S
Games played: 1343
Leaderboard: #27,560 (Top 3%) -N7 rank
Leaderboard: #86 (Top 1%) - Ach. Rank

I have 5 or 6 banners now.

You want the pretty banners? Well do what I and everyone else did to get them.

It's really pretty simple. Not sure what you are ****ing and moaning about since you are not a special snowflake where you were the ONLY one who played the game and had to start at zero for banner and rankings.

You want the pretty stuff? Earn them. You did NOT earn them before the system came out because they did not exist at that point in time. Now they exist. NOW earn them. :)

Don't look at it as something to **** and moan over, look at it as something new and exciting that you want and have a reason to play to get them.

Turn that frown upside down! ;)

I Got a life bro, and I dont play a huge deal....  for me 400 hours is huge and anyone else for that matter.  I'll let you enjoy this, this is really beyond me how a simple little gripe can turn into this somthing like this (like what you just wrote- wow) *peace and nice conversation be unto you.

My thoughts.....

N7 is not a measurement of time or skill.....many like myself simply didn't promote unless we had to, screwed up a class and using respec cards was not an option.

The Challange system is new, the hundreds of hours I played before this system came into play, I didn't expect a thing in return, I am very thankful for this new system and love it.

Someone who is new that can get the banners quick because of their skill, I think that is awsome and more power to them.

And I to have been playing since shortly after release, what other people can do, what they have that I may not, doesn't bother me at all, I live life the same way,

Well, you tossed your ****-n-moan out on an internet forum the BSN where people are pretty good at ****ing and moaning... so... you have to know you're going to get a lot of ****ing and moaning back at you... just because you preface it saying "I'm going to **** and moan here" doesn't mean you won't get responses. 

So, if you're not prepared for the attacks and diarrhea-of-the-mouth that will follow, I would have to recommend that in the future you either don't post, or just post your rant to get it out of your system, and then ignore your thread.  

Good luck, and try to have fun playing!

 I know, this is a b**** and Moan, but honestly I think many will feel the same way.  I have been playing since the game as been released a normal amount for the period (375 + hours). My N7 rating is almost 2000, and hundreds of dollars (with he granted complaining of my wife).  

What kinda erks me is this...  seeing a N7 rank of 300 with a banner.  I have played WAY more and invested hundreds of dollars getting the cards and fighting and nothing really to show for it (Banner wise)....    

Give somthing to your Loyal vets that have been around and stuck with y, we deserved a snazy banner too .....*cries like a little girl*:crying::o:?;):D


This is rather pathetic

I’m prepared I guess….  I just forget that ALL ages play this game
and was kind of hoping for SOME sort of possible, “Hey, that’s a fairly valid
point ( MOST LIKELY ALREADY MADE) we are looking into that”. 

 

 

Instead I got a whoosh of WOW, WTF, and
comments that I was just not expecting…

 

Ya, man I hope to see you
out there too - My feelings are not hurt by any means. My hope in humanity has defiantly
went down a few notches though.:pinched:

I've played since the demo and release consistantly, and actually have less hours played by you, so this statement amuses me.
