RE: Top 50 SG badge 

I don't think such a badge would exist. Because if you think about it, an SG would have to work thier butts off to get into the top 50, and then all someone would have to do to get that badge would be to join that SG. It wouldn't be a fair thing to do, and the devs do what they can to keep this a 'fair' game.

RE: Top 50 SG badge 

I could see it as a SG badge that opens up a base piece but there is definitely not a normal badge for top 50 or top 25.

RE: Top 50 SG badge 

Actually have a badge for the top 50 would be fair. Instead of a bunch of players unthinkingly creating SG. They would join more developed ones. I think they to change the rule on creating SG. The requirements should be that you need to be level 40 and have been on an SG for I geuss 3 months. That way the more experienced players would be making them. Instead of them being made at random.

The only problem with this is that you are not going to be generating prestige like you would at the early levels. It would be a waste not to have gotten that far in level and been earning prestige for your SG.

I think it's also unfair to people who join the game to play with their friends as a group. I run my SG, which is made up of people I know from off of CoH -- my RL girlfriend, some friends of ours from online, etc. We all created characters together. If we had to wait 40 levels to create a supergroup? Well, I can tell you we wouldn't have half the SG we do now. We've got no desire to be top 50 -- most of us (not me) are pretty casual players. There's nothing wrong with lots of little SGs with few players. They're not going to be top 50, but so what? That's just a vanity thing.

There is no such badge, SG or otherwise.

Oddly enough, this exact topic was brought up on the main boards. I'll tell ya when they told that person. Even if there was such a badge, that would mean that the badge would not be perminent. A SG at rank 51 to 50 gets the badge, the SG at rank 50 to 51 loses it.. Way too unstable. The Devs have the ability to strip a person of a badge, but that's on rare occasion, and i doubt they have the ability to put it into effect in such a wide range.

You also wouldn't be able to work up nearly as good a relationship with people if you only knew them since level 40 then if you, say, met them and created a SG with them at level 15. Having a long history with someone is the backbone of a good friendship.
Having the founding members of a SG that have known each other a while creates a better community for the group as a whole because the friendliness would just spread, and chances are the people that would join would be friends of friends anyway, so everyone would (hopefully) get along and work together a lot better.

Also, as a completely other note, nobody *has* to stay in a SG they don't want to. If inexperienced or bad players make a SG and it ends up reflecting their inexperience, then that person can just quit and find one more to their liking. Having "bad" SGs running around doesn't really effect anyone else's game as long as they don't actively cheat or hinder anyone else's fun. I'd be more specific with that, but in my inexperience I'm not sure how one would do that in CoH/V.

RE: Top 50 SG badge 

Just for the sake of curiosity. How and who rates these top 50? I mean what constitutes a top 50 rating? Prestige earned? Player/member active game time? Number of successful raids, TFs, PVP encounters?

My guess is that it would be some massive combination of all those. However, game time wouldn't be a fair one since people would just stay logged in and be afk or leave CoH running in the background while doing other stuff for hours on end and not accomplish anything, but would still rack up huge game time.
As for how they'd judge all that stuff and keep track of it all is beyond me.

It is merely the amount of prestige the SG is worth. So, how much the stuff in the base, the rooms, the defenses, all that stuff, along with amount of prestige in the bank.
