Missing "Good Boy" Ship Cosmetics

@musicmee

Completely understandable. Just wanted to make sure. I appreciate your reply, thank you very much for your assistance!

@musicmee not to Karen, but Goodboy sets should have been prioritized since there would have been less of them to add.

There was a solid month for the work to be done...

72 hours , then a ticket if you don't get your stuff. These are being added manually............

If you've ever worked with mass rewards, such as using a bot to assign multiple roles on Discord, it takes a really long while until it reaches everyone. It's a process for sure but it makes sense that they were not able to roll out the rewards until after the update was already released. Their system is probably adding the rewards to the accounts that qualify for them. 72 hours is definitely reasonable. I'm sure they had this set up way before the update dropped, and they can only be given out now that the update is out.

@s1lv3rh00d

Don't get me wrong, I'm aware of functionality issues and rolling out product.

They had 72 hours from the cutoff announcement to confirm and distribute the rewards. This thread should have not been needed.

This was a dropped opportunity.

I love our moderators, they do an amazing job with the amount of trash they're handed.

Corporate dropped the ball and should be called out.
I'm calling out corporate and you should too.

@pithyrumble
Sorry, was out at dinner.

"They had 72 hours from the cutoff announcement to confirm and distribute the rewards." "This was a dropped opportunity."

Those seem to be your own expectations, and it seems that Rare chose to distribute the items AFTER arenas officially closed. Why that is? Most likely to give something back to lessen the burn once Arena's was completely gone. I do not have a foolproof answer but it would make sense to give them out AFTER removing the mode. It hasn't been 72 hours since the mode closed and I have 5 out of 6 of the rewards, so I am glad that I have received that for the time being. That means that the rest of the playerbase must be getting theirs as well, which is a really good thing!

I personally don't agree with calling them out because Rare is in charge of the decision on how they want to handle removing their mode and how they want to celebrate the gamers who played it. This thread was supposed to be a support thread to see if other people are missing their items, not to call out Rare for not delivering the rewards for playing Arenas sooner than expected. If you want to complain about that, please make your own thread.

I am saying this as a fellow pirate: we need to reflect on ourselves and exercise patience and understanding rather than resorting to calling out "corporate", which sounds very Karen. I know that type of language was what you were initially trying to avoid but it still comes off that way; and I want to be very up front with you about it if that is something you're trying to work on.

@s1lv3rh00d

I'm not trying to work on anything.
Over a month to confirm and verify position, I don't mind the 72 hours, I already have my expected rewards.

@CallMeBackdrafT

This was still a dropped opportunity tho. They knew for a month who was getting what. It's not Emissary Ledger that could potentially change at the last second. Your position was set and known as of Jan 27.

@callmebackdraft said in Missing "Good Boy" Ship Cosmetics:

then there is the fact that since this is a one off they probably have to send a unlock message for each shipset this means:

Probably even a message for each item in a shipset.

@s1lv3rh00d I understand and respect your stance, but people were promised an item and the promiser hasn't delivered. Surely, you can understand why several people are upset?

@boo-i-scared-ya
Absolutely. But 72 hours hasn't passed. 3 days. To roll out rewards en masse takes time. They are still being distributed. They said that it will take that long. I know friends of mine that have gotten it, and those who haven't. After 72 hours passes, it is completely legitimate to be upset. I received feedback here, on twitter, and through the official Sea of Thieves server saying that we should see it soon (after the 72 hours).

The communication has been good despite the issue only affecting a small amount of players. They couldn't have rolled it out sooner because Arenas hadn't ended yet, and this is on top of a whole new season update. It's not just a switch they can turn on or off and suddenly everyone gets these awards. I haven't received my awards yet but I am exercising patience. I will probably log in today and see them, who knows. I wouldn't worry until after the time has passed.

@boo-i-scared-ya
"We're aware that some players eligible for The Good Boy ship cosmetics have not yet received them.

The rollout is taking place over the course of a few days, and we will be monitoring this to ensure all eligible players receive the items.

An update will be provided next week."

They have us all covered.
