Look at the weekly feedback sticky they post, they have stated that the SP rollover system is on the backburner as of uprising as it is not a critical core mechanic that needs fixing.

Let me cap in 1 day so i dont have deal with super OP swarms

pig. No man, wrong wrong wrong. Assh*les will try to find exploits and NOT play the game AND actively seek to ruin others fun so nope. maybe they are going about it THE RIGHT way and you just feel entitled to something you don't deserve. They are going to be giving us points just to log in let me guess step in the wrong direction? get off your soap box and shut your mouth for once jeez

Remember, rail tanking is gonna be more difficult now.

Watch these redline snipers and rail tanks get booted from matches for being afk... I can just see the tears now.

That could happen

Do we know how long it takes to get kicked and what we to do to avoid it because i could be killing a CRU and get kicked, or killing turrets and not ppl

I thought you were a fanboy Pig...why you don't wanna play the game? If you feel the game is boring why not take a break? There's always passive SP you know.

You should know that I find it hard to keep my mouth shut, and my soap box is actually quite cozy.

Firstly, the daily reward system is a fairly nice addition to the game. This draws people in at least once a day, which might have them decide to stay on for a few matches, bolstering the numbers. I also much prefer this over a system that gives you some garbage item every day. Please don't try to assume you know my stance on everything.

Secondly, is there something wrong with me advocating for a more fun and immersive gaming experience? If you look at my posts, I'm trying to say that CCP should counter the current player apathy with fun. Bring the game to a state where jumping out of the MCC and romping through the sand is fun, instead of the fairly limited lobby shooter we have now.

Sorry, I get fired up man. apologies.

If you don't want to cap out every week then just don't. Nobody forces you to.

Why would they be booted from matches? I've seen nothing that indicates this. Driving and firing a tank is a "PVP action". Show me a dev post that states otherwise.

I would argue about your use of the word "incentivize".

If they wanted to incentivize playing, they would make active SP accrue much faster than passive SP, rather than force you to play for your passive SP or get nothing at all. Please note, however, that I have already conceded to the fact that capping every week isn't a requirement, and have since abandoned that idea.

how would this entice people to play more often?

wouldn't this incentivize people to play less often, since they cap quicker?

by your logic, having it take so long to accrue your sp for the week makes the game a grind that is not fun...correct me if im misunderstanding you.
I do understand there is a demographic fitting this profile, however there is a healthy population of people who enjoy the game as well.

what you describe is instant gratification....CCP doesn't make that kind of game. its not just about gaining sp and pub stomping
if that's all your doing, then its understandable if you feel the game is grindy and unfun. you however don't just do that, your on the forms quite a bit, you either don't realize or have forgotten youre playing the game right now...aren't you having fun?

....this patch goes through, there is nothing stopping people from finding the next exploit, aside from the time it would take to find them. The only way to actually make a significant dent in this practice is to bring the game to the point where the game is fun and immersive enough that fewer people will want to seek exploits.

The players are smarter than the developers. There is no questioning that. This patch may be "rubber band proof", but there are ways around it. People will search for these ways, then share them with others. We will be back to where we are now given enough time.

just because someone is able to find a flaw in a program, doesn't make them smarter. both the programmer and the hacker are smart, and many can do each others job efficiently. that's like saying because ive killed you before in game im better than you...its ridiculous.

in fact! finding exploits in games are what some people do for fun.... and more power to them! in the end their work makes games better.

you expect perfection in a world where such a thing cannot exist outside the confines of our own minds...


I as much as you have had issue with the way CCP handles a variety of things, but to expect others to be flawless when I cannot accomplish this myself would be setting myself up to be let down by everyone and everything.

all we can expect from CCP is to handle problems when they occur...if you cant accept that then perhaps you've simply out grown this game, or need a break....

I am not expecting perfection. What I'm advocating for are patches that contain content and fixes that make the game fun enough to the point that the number of people that search for exploits and that actually use them drop.

I'm asking that CCP make the game fun so people won't want to AFK, rather than force them out of AFK. Use the carrot instead of the stick.. I realize that not every solution is perfect, and there will always be those that will seek to exploit the game in any way, but by focusing on making the game fun, we may have less people exploit hunting and more people willfully playing.

AFK ruined the game for many people, did people not think that this issue wouldn't be addressed?

I work fulltime. I either find the time to cap or just don't cap. The game is meant to reward players from playing. If you want an equal playing ground, go play Call of Duty. Those who earn more SP deserve it for their dedication to the game.
