Does anyone know exactly what Loyalty Points will be good for? Forgive me if I'm wrong, and I have run the search tool only to find year old threads with little info, but what are loyalty points to be used for? Also, have they said anything about what the unit coffers will be utilized for?

Someone else has another thread on this, too. There was a nice answer that sounded more knowledgeable than my conjecture.

Any ideas about unit coffers and what the unit money will be used for?

Originally the 'unit coffer' was explained that you were buying a dropship for CW...

But in his recent post Paul said "think of the dropships as on loan."

Why the hell did we chalk up 216 million c-bills again?

For paying for jumps later on and upgrading the base defenses of the planets they control.

Otherwise no idea ... space hookers and blow ?

[Kdogg788]

It would be ridiculous if you had to pay cbills for drops and jumps to participate in CW. At that rate, no unit would do it, especially if solo players had free entry in CW without a dropship/jumpship tax. Is it for consumables?

Oh... I'd like for them to be used for customizations! Like those banners and decals they've been working on!

NOW that is why we risk our lives in 40 foot tall robots getting shot at by other nutcases in 40 foot tall robots. It ain't to see the universe, it ain't for the companionship and stories. It's for space hookers and blow!

the spice hookers and blow must flow

I think loyalty point unlocks rank, which may unlock items, or reduced rates for items, when you achieve a certain rank in the faction. It may also allow you to take command during a clan war battle. This is all basically a guess on my part so don't be surprised if it turns out very differently.

ATM Coffers do nothing but cover the cost of getting out of a contract. At first it will cover the cost of jumping the group around from planet to planet. They have stated they will be doing this but it is not up atm. As for solo players it will come out of their pockets instead of the coffer. It will also be used for buying thing for the group on a whole. Like unit decals, paints, and patterns.

Loyalty Points only count toward the achievements they are listed under for now. So you get money from rank 1-20 for a total of 139,425,000 C-Bills per Faction. Again like Coffers, once they have everything running it will count for faction decals, paints, and patterns.

Also to see what we will be getting from Loyalty rewards check out this post from Paul Inouye on 12/8/2014...
