Tough decision. If I cash in for tg now, I'll lose 10% roughly once a day due to raids. And the raider won't even benefit from getting it; he'll get the arbitrary 300-500 trade goods while I lose a lot more.
Do I cash in now and spend immediately? Do I cash in now and lose a bunch waiting for the changes? Do I hold on and cash in after the changes, not knowing what they'll be?
This is a dilly of a pickle to us in.
I see what you're saying, and I feel the exact same. It's not about our current crates changing content once the update hits, it's the question of "do I horde in anticipation of an update that may still be a week away, thereby losing a bunch of TG to raids in the process, or do I spend until I KNOW the update is coming/has arrived?"
Doesn't the new Outpost system start tomorrow, wherein we no longer lose TG from being raided? If so, there's no fear (except for today) and you should hold onto them! If not, it's a close call. With the Cycle closing out tonight, I'll be storing something close to 10,000TG. If the update is not coming tomorrow (which it's not because Gas Booster is still in play), I'm probably gonna lose 1,000+ if I don't spend tonight.
What do you guys think? Save or hold? You'd end up with more total TG by spending now (since you won't lose 10% to each raid), but you may also jump the gun and then the update hits and suddenly you have a much better use for TG than gold crates and Legendary weapons...
Why is this a tough decision? I thought @Shteevie made it pretty clear (and @OneLessTitan further clarified) that your STORED rewards WILL NOT CHANGE after the update...

@rgerkman that's a relief!! im really a very easily entertained little zombie killer....pile of heads in one corner ...pile of shiny toys in the other...as long as I can still collect stuff and stack it up for no reason other than I just wanna
@JayZ: That's not the point we're discussing. I'm not talking about PREVIOUSLY STORED rewards from Challenges. I'm talking about whether or not to hold onto the TG I have now, or spending them on Legendary Gear. This WILL be affected since the items up for grabs in the TG Shop WILL be changing after the Update. So my point is, part of me wants to wait and see what new options will be available for purchase in the TG shop. But if I wait and hold onto my current TG, I will be raided and lose a bunch. So the options are:
a) Wait and see until the update comes (and lose a good chunk of TG in the process) b) Spend as I would normally and not get raided (as much)
Although I'm still unclear if the "no TG loss from raids" goes into effect with the Update or with the new Cycle tomorrow. @Teeceezy@Shteevie can you clarify??
I think im gonna use my memorial tent to hide stuff so NG can't keep stealing it back...my TG...my reward crates...my gold...my luck weapons...Ssshhh no one tell NG on me
@General_Quatre Sorry, that's a fair point. I misinterpreted your post.

My confusion will be abundantly clear if you simply notice that their posts were edited.

"if you cash in your stored crates before the update, you will get the rewards under the current structure. If you cash them in after the update, the rewards will be based on the new structure"
This was the current information when I posted my comment.

@General_Quatre and a few others, I think some of you have missed one post by @Shteevie . The change in TG goods will not change what you already have. He did clarify it.
If I know when, then I can make choices...I wanna use up my choices before you take them away....don't think they'll fit in my memorial tent with all my other junk...it's starting to look like my wardrobe...have to shut the door quickly before anything falls out

I can't speak for anyone else, but at the point I made my post, that "important clarification" post wasn't available to me. He either posted it after I opened the thread but before I finished my post, or he edited it after I made my post. Either way, the information I had was that our stored rewards would change. I'm glad to know now that's not the case.

@pig I ain't mad at ya! Everyone was posting very quick and close to each other I can see why it was overlooked. Just trying to stop the panic and following stampede.
So glad everything was made clear as mud. This is going to be the THIRD guild reward structure since launch. Will the 3rd time be the charm? HAHAHAHAHHAHA....no. I think guild rewards have become their go-to way of digging out of the holes they created. We all know there's a nerf they aren't telling us about yet. Going to be a hoot finding what it is. Sporks for our warriors, maybe?
@JackBauer nice. yeah def to each his own. I only use them on 500 gold crates and have about 25K TG's saved in challenge reward tickets so i'm not in a super rush to spend them so figure i'll see what happens.

If lifting the cap on equipment level would diminish the value of getting new drops, I have a solution. Make scrapping give "parts" and make leveling items cost "parts," instead of XP.
As it is I would never buy any weapon/armor bundles because they have a limited shelf life.
@General_Quatre At least outpost raid rewards have not changed yet i.e. you still get TG and influence for partly raided outpost so I very much believe you will still lose up to 10% of your stored TG when someone raids your outpost. So apparently NG could not change it just by configuring the system but it requires software update to take effect. So at least I cashed my outpost cycle rewards...
@FOX Click your name at the top right of the screen to get to your profle page. There you will find the profile pic in a bigger version to the right of the screen. At the top of that pic there will be a colored bar stating "change picture". If you click that you should be able to find your way from there I think.
Actually, you can click your name in any of your posts as well.

As the delay was stated as being the QA approval process, I don't think they have any idea when the update will come. But we can probably pinpoint it to before winter.

It's my understanding it goes live tomorrow when The Outposts do.. according to the video I watched by @Terminates

Bottom line challenge tickets earned will keep value after update but options to spend them on in 2.1 will differ slightly from 2.0. Got it.
I think I'll wait and see what 2.1 TG store offers before opening those tickets.
