It would be nice to have all the veteran rewards from the get-go. That includes all the T9 costume packs that would be inaccessible by now, right? it'd also mean we can implement a new veteran system.
The single level 50 idea? in the long run doesn't seem as much of an impacting choice as the others, you get one 50, but you can always reach 50 anyway, veteran awards were harder to obtain than a single 50 by far. And starting out with all the AT's? VIP's get Controller and MM anyway, and getting V/EATS isn't tough, it got lowered to level 20. So out of all the options, Veteran Awards sounds more tempting.
perhaps the possibility of a 'Veterans Pack', in which you can get access to all the old veteran awards (which actually include all the AT's as it is I think), 3 Purchasable Powersets, and perhaps 5 Costume Packs? Then the Celestial/Fire & Ice/Mecha outfits aren't lost forever, and we can rebuild our main characters from the selection of items we choose.
What do you guys think? it doesn't strictly mean paying for all your things again, but it'd mean you can have access to a selection of your prioritized account items, and help fund the game a little too.
