Double cap week, not double SP week.
If you want the SP... just buckle down and get ready to afk twice as long. You would have to play twice as long otherwise. |

Sorry, but trying to "force" people out of AFK won't work, especially when you now get a whopping 2 SP per WP instead of 1. Try making the game more fun to play so we won't want to AFK instead of trying to brute force us out of the MCC. Who ever said that the purpose of this event was to "force people out of the MCC" or to "punish" anybody?  Maybe CCP just thought it would be nice to give us a double XP event but, in light of how many people simply AFKed the last time, arranged this event so that AFKing would be less effective? And what we are getting is a "double-SP-event-only-for-active-boosters.-PS:-you-can-still-afk,-but-make-it-double!"
Active boosters do absolute nothing to the cap, you DO NOT reach the cap faster with an active booster on. |

Active boosters do absolute nothing to the cap, you DO NOT reach the cap faster with an active booster on. I ******* know that! And I was talking about that I would need a active skillbooster to get the double SP in this event. Do you even read the first posting?
Why is this a double event only for active boosters? your comment makes no sense. Whether or not you use boosters, you will still have a doubled cap.
Yes I read the OP, care to explain how an active booster makes any difference so I can show you why you're wrong? |

This should be a double SP and a double cap event.
In order to get the double SP I need to use active booster, because I only get slightly more SP that i would do regularly.
No you're wrong dude, active booster DOES NOTHING to get you closer to the cap.
I have an active booster and it will take me the same number of games to cap as you, I just get a free 50% SP on top of it. |

meri jin wrote:Are you people ********? I'm not talking about that skill boosters bring some one faster to the cap. I'm not even talking about the cap! FFS! I'm talking about the double active SP via the WP in a match! In a regular match, without the event, I'm making around 5000 SP. (and I could make another 2500 with a booster) In this event I'm making around 6xxx SP, even with 1700 WP. (and I could make another 4000 with a booster) Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo to get the DOUBLE SP in this DOUBLE SP event who is called "Double Skill Point Event for August"
- The double skill point gain applies to all matches played in DUST 514 for the duration of the event.

I need to use an active booster! Because: 6xxx + 4xxx = 1xxxx <= 10000 SP. 10000 is double of my regular 5000 SP, you get it? Or should I draw you a ******* picture? 10000 would be the double amount of my regular SP (I know I repeat myself, but you seems to need it in order to understand it). This so called double SP event only works for me if I use the booster. Otherwise it is only a "Slightly more SP event in August". And shut the **** up about the cap, I don't care about it, I don't talk about it, not even a little! I rarely manage to cap out the normal amount, this huge amount is even beyond! I have to be job less or alone to make that happen.
So first... 6000 * 1.5 = 9000 not 10000. Which is *gasp* 50% more SP!? Just like it has always been!?
So wtf are you even talking about? You are just ranting about nothing at this point.
I think it clear who is the ret arded one in this thread. |

meri jin wrote:May be it is my fault. May be my English skills aren't as good as I was hoping they are, but I'm mature enough to try it one more time in another words. So ZDub 303, listen up. Look at this please: Double Skill Point Event for August! http://dust514.com/news/blog/2013/08/double-skill-point-event-for-august/Look at the points:
- Time GÇô August 7-14 from downtime to downtime.
- The double skill point gain applies to all matches played in DUST 514 for the duration of the event.
- Weekly skill point cap is set to 380,800 (that is double the normal 190,400!).
- Passive skill point gain from matches are NOT doubled, this is to discourage AFK farming.
- Active skill point gain is doubled! Your warpoints earned during the match will be doubled when it is converted into skill points.
As a normal player I get around 5000 SP, nearly every match. Now that this event have started I'm earning around 6000 SP, nearly every match. Did you see it? Without event 5000 SP, with the double SP event 6000 SP! This is because of the last two points I have written above. So, for me to get the double amount of SP in this so called double SP event, I need to use a active skillbooster. And this is it what makes me so upset. That they cal it double SP event, but in real this is just a bold way to sell the boosters.
Look I get what you're saying man. You're saying that we have double cap but not double SP. This is the same thing we have about 10 other threads complaining about lol.
Yes, the idea of double SP/WP was a bad one.
I get what you are saying that the combination of active booster + double SP/WP can get you close to double SP per match. But whatever dude, it was another bad idea... hopefully they will learn from it and we can move on.
Do what the rest of us are doing and afk for twice as long or don't play at all. |

Still the comment stands, this event has nothing to do with active boosters. Yeah sure you get more Sp with a booster... I would hope so.. thats why I spent money on them! lol.
But the SP payouts are still the same during the event and not during the event. |

Honestly dude, just be glad they are doing anything. They didn't have to double our cap and you don't have to reach it.
Regardless of how they did it, I'm still glad I get a little more SP before the tournament starts to get me that core focused rep tool. |
