Pitting them up against the rest of the community (most of whom have over 7mil SP) after getting 8 kills (400 Warpoints) is just going to make the any new player delete this game off their PS3.
"but our metrics suggest the median new player is scoring about 100 WP per battle, so this has them graduating from the Academy after probably 3-5 battles"
Are you kidding me? Yes you TOO can master dust after playing only 3-5 battles.
I could agree after 3-5 battles they should be able to CHOOSE to play any gamemode they want, but they should have the option to play Battle Academy long after 10k Warpoints. Nevermind 400.

I just started playing eve a little bit about a month-ish a ago and when I started I had friend warn me, that there might a bit of a learning curve to fully understand EVE. He showed me this pic to demonstrate.

CCP thinks the Eve model is going to work with Dust with FPS's. What they don't understand is that EVE is the only game like it out there. They have no competition. They could require everyone that played to have to sit on a carrot while singing the theme to My Little Pony and they would still have a large following.
With FPS games you have alot, no Sorry ALOT! more Competition. So you keep your 5 year plan, and I'm hoping you finally get it right, in a year. But by then I will probably be playing Destiny. |

I meant the EVE model of moving slowly, building the game up over time, having a 5 year plan for Dust when there is very little to get people interested in the game now.
Battle academy is far from a perfect solution, NPC matches would be great, as well as a long list of other things. But players should have the option to go into Battle Academy long after earning 10k WP.
I mean 80-90% of the pubs matches I play end up in red lines some noobs within the first 3 minutes of a game of skirmish or Domination. |
