This means attacking corp gets its money back. so no cost in attacking. All profit made by district isnt used. thus making millions Folloe me on Youtube
DootDoot Da Short Buss 219	Posted - 2014.03.10 05:00:00 - [5] - Quote Planetary conquest along with the new Faction warfare features in DUST was done by a roaming group of developers CCP has. They are called Team True Grit. And come out to shanghai to work on bigger projects when they aren't occupied on EVE development and CCP CEO Hilmar can spare them. And there in lies the problem with massive portions of DUST's content and additions by Team True Grit. They come out and grind out some code and have half fast implementation of the actual results. And has been done several times to DUSTS detriment. They don't polish or have the general oversight on quality control before implementation.. And you can see this echoed in every feature they have had a hand in. Worse still is CCP doesn't plan on touching PC 2.0 without team true grit working on it themselfs... They where out for a 2-3 month stint before new years... but have since been all recalled to iceland and the work on PC 2.0 suspended largely.

Locking is only a way to make money from the district RISK FREE. Locking does NOT increase the amount of money you make off a district. Corps were already making millions BEFORE locking started. The issue was just brought up because people QQed and then immediately blamed it on the first thing that came to their mind: LOCKING DISTRICTS. I think I'm a forum warrior level 5 :D
Jarlaxle JRXL Well Oiled Machines 13	Posted - 2014.03.10 05:12:00 - [9] - Quote im SERIOUSLY still trying to find PROFIT... 36mil to try... if successful... must wait a WEEK (unattacked) to make that back in BioMass Sales... if ppl DO attack, its JUST a loss (unless u lose LESS than 160 clones)... What am I missing?

The issue was just brought up because people QQed and then immediately blamed it on the first thing that came to their mind: LOCKING DISTRICTS. Ask well known entities that have gone to head how well ISK sustains over a long war for districts... When clones are being lost and districts are constantly under attack... It becomes a war of attrition... Which ever side goes broke first looses... Sure individual players might have capital to float the corporation further in the war efforts but the Corporation still goes broke. Profitability in PC depends on no up and coming PC corporations continuously challenging the district. And for districts to go uncontested you have to make a name for your corporation and alliance that most people think it a waste of ISK attacking.

What am I missing? Lots of corps already have billions so when they get in a war they can lock their districts, pay the fee every day for 2 weeks and still attack enemy districts so it is almost impossible for them to lose. Lord High Commander Maths is OP. After all it is all those numbers flying around that kills you.

SIMPLE QUESTION... & U ninnies obviously DONT know (WITHOUT DISTRICT LOCKING) Corp gets tax money if they dont have 10 districts which they use for pc as well. Every corp i have fought for has given a fee to players for fighting win or lose generally 2mil. It depends how the battle goes if you make money but 95% of the time i have profited from pc battles. But when you count the 30+ minutes used to sort out squads and plans it isnt much more then pubs unless you win and get paid well Lord High Commander Maths is OP. After all it is all those numbers flying around that kills you.
