    Did they ever confirm what tier they are paying out?

    Nope, I'm assuming they are giving us up to tier 4 since that's what we hit and they haven't said anything about giving out tier 5 as either a participation trophy reward or compensation for taking so long.

    The ISO rewards they’ve given are the totals for tiers one to four. I am taking it that those are what we’re getting and the rest of the covers will follow.

    Good point.

    It's amazing that technology improved so much but they still have to commit a lot of resources for just giving general rewards.

    My guess is that they are trials in place to see what drive up playing, engagement and spending. No point developing a reward distribution system for community events if they don't work to do any of those three things and they won't be used. Find the right outcome and build the thing that delivers it.

    First of any of these things they should announce it effectively in game, then reminders in game too, also the bar showing progress could be in game too.
    Also the time they extended rightly announced.
    And once you have all the players aknowleging the challenge, progress, rewards and everything else, then you can do trials about their behaviour.

    Maybe we can stop sending things out right when s2 PVE starts, @IceIX pretty please?

    There are at least 6 of us to send these to, dude, give 'em some time!

    Well, totally botching the roll-out of rewards should ABSOLUTELY drive up engagement.

    I didn't say I agreed with the strategy (though it does make sense from a resource perspective). I think this is the balance between wanting new stuff and wanting stuff that works well. I do like the fact that new things are being tried, and I'm not really bothered about waiting a few days for a free set of rewards for not doing anything different. I'd rather that than wait months for a slick rewards distribution system that gave me them immediately, but have 5 months fewer rewards.

    Of course that doesn't apply to everything and there are some features that I'd rather time was taken over and delivered without flaws. This just isn't one I'm going to complain about.

    If we're getting 4, yeah.

    I believe they handed out all Iso for all reward tiers during the first pass.

    seems like the ISO was rolled out in one batch, but the covers separately.

    probably because of reasons, i would imagine.

    There were 40000 (4x10000) ISO so I expect the covers for Tier 4

    Counter is frozen above 400M, it would be particularly weird if we did not get 4 tiers.

    It's BCS, wouldn't be out of the ordinary 🤣
    But yes, since we seem to have gotten the ISO for tier 4, I guess we'll get the rest, too.

    Did you mean to say can we have all the rewards at the start of S2 pve? Because that we can do.

    Oh, I got the tier 4 rewards.
