They probably decided on the 2x multiplier for WP just so it wouldn't be too easy to reach the 1000 SP soft cap after you capped out. When the 3x event was going on, reaching 334 WP was pretty easy to do consistently in 50 clone ambushes, so a higher multiplier than that would've made it effortless. |

The notice I read was pretty clear...cap was doubled, not 2X SP earned, and SP from WP would be doubled. Not sure where the confusion is coming from? Perhaps everyone just skimmed the post without actually reading it?
My first thought about this event was perhaps a sort of "testing the waters" about adjusting current caps and WP rewards. They can monitor the progress to see just how far the casual player actually gets towards the cap to see what kind of adjustments to make and still keep things "balanced". |

Good thought, it does seem like they may be testing out the cap, I still feel your biggest SP should come from the contribution made to battle. Though the WP system needs work, mainly as I see it, more things added into it. As a tanker, it is very easy to make a lot of WP off destroying turrets, but the ground guys gotta put a lot of effort into those points. Good post my friend. |

I'm going to re-iterate what aload of people have already said.
Cap is x2
Sp from battles is as follows:
Sp from time in battle=same
Sp from warpoints=x2
So it's extra, not a huge amount but it's nifty. |

Very nice, needed this on here. I will see if I reach my cap this week with the double SP from warpoints, not a huge bonus but at least I get a little something from blowin stuff up!

If you normally play 3 days (cap after day 3) then quit and now you're complaining about dying twice as much, might I suggest you still just play 3 days. You will be making more total SP then b4 and you won't lose as much. IDK what it is with people and Capping. As far as I see it, I get to gain more SP this weak and reach my goal a whole weak early! That's a lot less grinding in my case as still getting a bunch of SP after 3-4 days instead of the 1k cap and even gaining up to 2k after the bonus is gone means I get a lot more sp then b4. Stop crying and enjoy the fact that CCP is letting you get more SP this week.
`Sigh. Just another fun game of DUST  .
You realize people have lives right? I myself can't toss in 18 hours on a game like it's my day job with overtime bonuses..
Double and triple SP are some of the ways we are able to stay on par with the guys who just sit on a couch all day. I've been playing since closed beta and have already been surpassed by the ones who just joined at the ending stages of open beta. |

After you cap you'll only need 500 WP to reach the 1000 SP soft cap. Capped out this morning and can confirm it. |
