A lot of players are going crazy over the fact that if they play on console, they wont have anything from PC to play with. Lifetime Rewards, Veteran Status, Ship builds.
My personal feelings on the issue are this,
Cryptic is bringing the game we know and love to console, with a completely updated engine. I am very excited because the PC i play STO on has never been able to handle the amazing graphics the game has had to offer, Console is an opportunity to experience that and more.
However I am deeply concerned about the fact that none of my purchases over the years will transfer over.
I don't mind starting completely over as a new player. In fact, with how many updates the game has received for console, I welcome a fresh start.
I understand the issues with bringing accounts as they are over to console. I foresee an attempt to do so riddled with countless bugs that will ruin the experience.
However, I believe cryptic should make what ever C-Store items are available on console that a player has owned on PC, available to them to be "Claimed" On console. This wouldn't create an unbalanced game, since most of the C-store items aren't available for use until later in the game.
We the players made this game the success it is by playing, and spending money on it. That should be honored.
