I propose a few things
1) Losers of said match don't get paid at all (free cash win or lose should be a pub thing)
2) Payouts double and triple when an Empire is underrepresented in FW aka is clearly losing eve side.
3) Merit based rewards (salvage/LP), you get rewarded more (or less) based on your history/contributions to the war effort with said factions equipment/weapons.
Thoughts?
1) Even in PC we pay out both sides, I can't see us not doing that for FW. That being said while raw ISK may be paid out that doesn't mean other things have to be. :)
2) Interesting, shall have to think about it. I am a bit tired right now but we had some reasons for not wanting to do that... those reasons may have changed now but as I said, tired... :)
3) Agreed. :) Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |

Those are not my area, but I suppose we could delay the feature until they get done at an unknown point in time... Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |

Since you are here CCP Foxfour.... are there any plans to introduce a Dust side Militia Systems like the EVE based system. As it stands the only reason to stand loyal is for loyalties sake or if you like to RP.... as such no real Dust based efforts come together in a meaningful way. But either way I love the premise of FW. Its the whole reason I play this game.
There are plans yes. No ETA. :)

Unknown point in time, really? Unless you're just playing with us, which I hope you are, does the team at CCP really not even have a general idea for when they want to release these? Quite frankly I don't know how you can balance all the vehicles when you're missing half of the variants. But alas, I realize I am griping to the wrong dev here.
To be fair, I see lots of very detailed spreadsheets and schedules and just don't personally keep track of details of other teams beyond the current patch we are working on. I just have a hard enough time keeping track of everything on our teams to do list. :(
Edit: I realize now what I should have said is actually "unknown to me point in time" Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |

I'm not interested in the when. Thank you for the confirmation, I am glad that improvements are on the way. I would also hope/ assume that factionalised loot is possibly being added as well....... By Militia system do you mean to imply a "sign on" system for both individuals and corporations that enforces or ensures player loyalty. Does this system affect faction relations/ standings?
I would love to see players getting increased rewards for their loyalty for playing with a specific faction, however I don't want to lock people into factions.
DUST is meant to be a very social game and I think it is incredibly important that players can play with whoever they want.
For example, it would suck a LOT if you joined one corporation that was in say the Gallente militia and then some friends of yours play Caldari and you couldn't join them or had to jump through hoops just to do it. Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |

Sorry, I was a bit tired. Both sides get salvage is what I meant. Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |
