I'm quite curious to know what makes you say: "Ok, this player can join Sver/TeamPlayers/whateverkickasscorporation".
Personally, I love my Corp because they're a bunch of nice guys, they are exactly that kind of people you always have fun with, but we are generally open to new players and in the end this makes us a "relaxed" Corp, even though part of us kicks butts (there's a huge skill gap among our members). But I'm pretty sure it's very different for those "Top" Corps. I'd like to know "fun" is an important factor, but of course skill is a priority for competitive corporations.
Besides K/D Ratio (I don't know how important it is, after all), what are the recruitment criteria for such high-level Corps? |

Usually larger corps have feeder corps where they can harvest isk fro... I mean train newer players. SVER's is Neanderthal Nation, idk about others. Basically swim the proper channels, message a member of the corp you want in and see what you have to do to get where you want to go. |

Be cool and fun to play with. And be generally good. Kd is a good measure, but its more how good you perform in pc.
As for pc, all you need is proto suit, proto weapon, and if not a heavy, proto uplinks! That's it!
Proto uplinks! Yayy :D |

The only corps that use corps feeder corps for income are poor, low tier corporations. |

Proto uplinks! Yayy :D
Yeah, in PC people rarely run out of ammo before they die, lol... hives are not needed.
But Proto Uplinks really suck a ton of PG and CPU... it takes a noticeable amount of SP to upgrade the core skills. With proto shields and weapon I really struggle to use any decent equipment right now.
What about the Scanner? Is it being helpful in PC?

if your particularly good at something the top corps come to you.
if your a particularly awesome person then squading up in random squads and chatting it up

You inquire. Your not applying for a position at a RL firm. Tho I know some that treat their corps as such. (looking at you eve players)
Other way is to just keep doing what your doing. That's how I've gotten my invites in every FPS I've played. including this game.

1) Do your research, find a corp you like. 2) Find out who their top players are and wait to catch them in a pub. 3) **** them up. 4) Apply to corp.

I don't know if you were asking because you wanted to get into one of those other corporations. If you were, I'd urge you to think about what you said about your current corporation. You may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true.

Havent read the entire thread in case this has already been answered, but in STB we have a couple very clear-cut rules for recruits...
1 - Must be over 16 years of age or show an acceptable level of maturity 2 - Must have a mic and use it at all times 3 - Must be tolerant of all beliefs, orientations, relationships, etc. of the members. STB does not judge or discriminate and this is a serious offense.
STB takes pride on being a family of players instead of being simply a clan or banner that people play under. We have had two people meet each other through STB and they are getting married soon. In addition, many of our members are friends in real life and have aided one another in significant ways even though they have never met face to face.
On top of everything, we believe in playing in a competitive manner and maintaining a strong desire to win as a team, bettering not only ourselves, but our fellow corpmates at all times.
In Dust, we also have a couple additional regulations, which if they cannot be met, the player will be referred to our training corp or our sister corp. This is not a denial, but rather us asking you to let us help improve your skills through hands-on training, metagame crunching, and overall improving mental strength.
In order to bypass this, your character must possess at least a 2.0 KD, a 2.0 WL, and must have at least 10 million sp.
We welcome any and all who are interested to apply, after which we will begin our screening process.

Spock!
I asked out of curiosity.
It is true that I'm growing and growing as a player in this game, but if I will ever feel like I want to be part of the most competitive dimension of DUST, that's something I'm going to discuss with my Corp mates before making any decision.
I hope Psygod9 will be back to PC soon.
Anyway, it would be painful to leave them... |

Thank you for the very detailed answer, that helps me understand how do you streamline your corporation.
However, a KDR of 2.0 is a much lower requirement than what I expected, while WLR 2.0 is a tough one for people playing solo most of the time.
My KDR should be about 4.0 (I don't remember exactly and rarely check it), but my WLR is 1.30 or something. lol.

I did a corp so that my friends (people i recruited into the game) can play with me and not get stomped every game. Actually, they are all my friends or coworkers. XD Man we suck...
K-D ratio SHOULD NOT be arquirment in any corp. 1.8+ is more than enough, having in consideration how easy it is to pad stats in this game..... |

RND don't have a feeder corps, we at RND have a "waiting room" / "try out corps" to test out new recruit skills, personality, determination, and to see how competitive they are.
For Example the way of Ahrendee :
You will join Ahrendee Day Care first the "waiting room" (1%tax).
Once your membership is approve you get to join Ahrendee PreHardMerc the "main corp"(50%tax).
Ahrendee Day Care and Ahrendee PreHardMerc has the same rule to follow.
Ahrendee Day Care is allow to take part in Corp battle and PC just like the main corp.
New member and old member are not allow to suck on each others, we don't roll that way.
If you meet a troll in Ahrendee like "H20water", Do not believe anything it say till said otherwise.
If Ahrendee do not approve of you, you will be kick out the "waiting room".
The approve may take up to 2 week - 3 year time.
You must have a mic.
We do not like GG, GF, or YOLO form randoms player we don't know.
remember this is only a example. |

it's more about finding a corp you may want to join, hopping in their public chat or recruitment thread, and making contact. each corp will guide you from there. knowledge of the game mechanics, above average gun game and full proto setup in a solid role is a basic requirement... assume 10mil SP as a bare minimum as an assault type as you need core and weapon skills relatively high to go toe-to-toe with PC teams.
raw kdr is just one element.. and a shallow one at that. but the most common element that people look at up front... whether your listed char kdr or your kdr over a specific period of tryout, and desired kdr sometimes varies based on role and SP level. in competitive play there are a lot of other factors to consider as well. and on the most competitive teams it's often about whether you can play a necessary role that they are short on.
the requirement that you fit in and get along is understood / obviously implied.

I thought it was a joke. I only saw a 50% tax once, and it happened because I wanted to joke with the few guys still online in my corp....but...are you serious? 2 weeks - 3 years paying 50%? well, good luck finding new good players ;) |

Personally, I love my Corp because they're a bunch of nice guys, they are exactly that kind of people you always have fun with, but we are generally open to new players and in the end this makes us a "relaxed" Corp, even though part of us kicks butts (there's a huge skill gap among our members). But I'm pretty sure it's very different for those "Top" Corps. I'd like to know "fun" is an important factor, but of course skill is a priority for competitive corporations.
Besides K/D Ratio (I don't know how important it is, after all), what are the recruitment criteria for such high-level Corps? Havent read the entire thread in case this has already been answered, but in STB we have a couple very clear-cut rules for recruits... 1 - Must be over 16 years of age or show an acceptable level of maturity 2 - Must have a mic and use it at all times 3 - Must be tolerant of all beliefs, orientations, relationships, etc. of the members. STB does not judge or discriminate and this is a serious offense. STB takes pride on being a family of players instead of being simply a clan or banner that people play under. We have had two people meet each other through STB and they are getting married soon. In addition, many of our members are friends in real life and have aided one another in significant ways even though they have never met face to face. On top of everything, we believe in playing in a competitive manner and maintaining a strong desire to win as a team, bettering not only ourselves, but our fellow corpmates at all times. In Dust, we also have a couple additional regulations, which if they cannot be met, the player will be referred to our training corp or our sister corp. This is not a denial, but rather us asking you to let us help improve your skills through hands-on training, metagame crunching, and overall improving mental strength. In order to bypass this, your character must possess at least a 2.0 KD, a 2.0 WL, and must have at least 10 million sp. We welcome any and all who are interested to apply, after which we will begin our screening process. o7

requirements vary from corp to corp.
Most of them require you to do time in the feeder corps.
Some are chill, some are tryhard trash. The chill ones ask you to prove you're not a douche. the tryhard trash make you take the one ring to mount doom while wearing it on your wang, and armwrestling the nazgul the whole way.
In short, poke around and see who seem to fit your personality. Just don't be shocked if they stick you in the newbie corner for fear that you're actually me infiltrating their corp with intent to awox the **** out of them. |

For Example the way of Ahrendee :
You will join Ahrendee Day Care first the "waiting room" (1%tax).
Once your membership is approve you get to join Ahrendee PreHardMerc the "main corp"(50%tax).
Ahrendee Day Care and Ahrendee PreHardMerc has the same rule to follow.
Ahrendee Day Care is allow to take part in Corp battle and PC just like the main corp.
New member and old member are not allow to suck on each others, we don't roll that way.
If you meet a troll in Ahrendee like "H20water", Do not believe anything it say till said otherwise.
If Ahrendee do not approve of you, you will be kick out the "waiting room".
The approve may take up to 2 week - 3 year time.
You must have a mic.
We do not like GG, GF, or YOLO form randoms player we don't know.
remember this is only a example.
50% tax?
robbery much?
how on earth is any recruit supposed to afford decent gear with that kind of tax in order to prove themselves....

Better Hide R Die isn't a top 25 corporation in Dust 514, but it is in the top 100.
We don't bother with feeder corporations. You're either in BHD or you're not. BHD is a laid-back group of around 120 folks who like to have fun when playing, with an occasional competitive streak thrown in, too. If you're mature, have a good attitude, get along with others (sort of like the STB policy outlined in an earlier post) and (preferably) a mic, you're in if you've applied.
We've been around since the days of Warhawk years and years ago, and will be around for years to come. |

One mandatory requirements for every top corp HAVE A MIC and know when not to use it.
A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. has skill requirements based on Total SP, Current Skills, KDR, and you as a person. Its easier to keep track of the requirements with PDF/Google Documents and questionnaire / forms feeding information into those documents. I have about 10 docs keeping track of A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. metrics and player information. Putting these documents together can be a pain but it makes training and organizing PC matches much easier in the long run. |

Well Madbrute, let me give you some perspective. Ive had the dis-pleasure of actually hearing Regnum on the mic during a match and it's like listening to a hormonal 15 year old girl whining about lag, MD, Murder taxis, Eurof@gs, Eurof@g servers and pretty much anything else that kills him (GOD FORBID).
So as long as we dont get any whiney girls in the corp its all good bro. Plus I believe the only one who can send out threats for TP is Cubs, so I wouldnt worry about it.

while I pull the strings... every member has a say in what strings are pulled...
We currently have a good business relationship with STB, and STB has used our services for their benefit on countless occasions...
I'm not sure QG would want me to tell him we cannot aide STB any more cause some hormonal teenager in his corp offended my players and they no longer wish to help STB when asked.
furthermore, I know for a FACT he doesn't want to get a message from concord with our names attached....
Unlike the grunts, QG knows the bigger picture, and knows we have the power and the unlimited ISK to bring your emprire down to LESS than its previous low point...

Just to add something that I didn't before. CLANS AND CORPS are different. The TOP corps here doesn't necessarily mean they have the top players. As in like the top clans in most FPS games.
In most fps games running into any member of a top clan by themselves and you know it's gonna be a fight.
can't say the same about this game.

Top corps, and I mean corps like TP, RND and AE, are not top corps because they have the best players, but because they have the best teams. Of course, their players are also very good, but they are more than a bunch of KDRs thrown together.
KDR is important, of course. It must not be spectacular, but it must be good enough so they know you will be able to do your part, and not hold back the rest of the team.
But KDR is not the only thing. In the end, everytime they recruit someone they look for what can you bring to the team. AR assaults with a KDR of 4+ are dime a dozen. Dedicated scouts with a KDR of 4+ are rare. So are Dropship pilots or good tank drivers. If you are good in useful roles that not many people can fulfill, your chances of getting accepted increase by a lot.
There is also the part of your character. It does not matter if you have a KDR of 10+. If you can't follow the plan, or when the GC gives an order you always have a better idea, or you are a perpetual drama queen, and don't change your ways, they will kick you from the corp or not accept you.
If you are really something else they will cut some slack for you, but in the end it will not matter if you are the best killer in the game. If you can't work with others to secure a win, then you are out. And what top corps want, above all else, is winning. That's the reason why they are top corps.
And then, they must like you. Or at least, not dislike you. So some social skills are required.
So in short, they will check:
-How good you are individually. -What roles do you fulfill and if they have a use for you. Heavy knifers are not in great demand. -If you are the kind of guy that will sacrifice a win just to not have bad personal score. -How do you get along with the rest of the team/leadership.
All four are important. Fail any of those, and they wont want you. |

Personally, I love my Corp because they're a bunch of nice guys, they are exactly that kind of people you always have fun with, but we are generally open to new players and in the end this makes us a "relaxed" Corp, even though part of us kicks butts (there's a huge skill gap among our members). But I'm pretty sure it's very different for those "Top" Corps. I'd like to know "fun" is an important factor, but of course skill is a priority for competitive corporations.
Besides K/D Ratio (I don't know how important it is, after all), what are the recruitment criteria for such high-level Corps?

Going to highjack this one just a bit. Wouldn't it be nice if there were established conventions for conveying all of the information that is lost through text/electronic communication? The internet is probably mature (as in old/developed...) enough to support a means to denote the para-lingual and prosodic character of what you're trying to communicate (beyond typing in caps or adding superfluous punctuation.)The ways we speak, as well as the kinesic, haptic and proxemic components of language are often lost in translation, so to speak.
Cheers,

We don't bother with feeder corporations. You're either in BHD or you're not. BHD is a laid-back group of around 120 folks who like to have fun when playing, with an occasional competitive streak thrown in, too. If you're mature, have a good attitude, get along with others (sort of like the STB policy outlined in an earlier post) and (preferably) a mic, you're in if you've applied.
We've been around since the days of Warhawk years and years ago, and will be around for years to come.

raw kdr is just one element.. and a shallow one at that. but the most common element that people look at up front... whether your listed char kdr or your kdr over a specific period of tryout, and desired kdr sometimes varies based on role and SP level. in competitive play there are a lot of other factors to consider as well. and on the most competitive teams it's often about whether you can play a necessary role that they are short on.
the requirement that you fit in and get along is understood / obviously implied.
good luck. I feel like the SP gap between me and you guys is somehow unfillable and that for this reason the best corporations will never really find me interesting... (insert sad face). This is probably the only thing of DUST that really feels "unfair" to me. It's really not that like that to be honest. At some point there is only so much SP you can have impacting any given dropsuit. Probably the least for heavies (dropsuit, plates, reps, dmg mods, grenades, 2x weapons, core HP & fitting as required), then for assaults (add some equipment and skill sidearms), then scouts (need mobility mods), then logis (need to max equipment skills). ~10mil is sort of a good, round number baseline for assaults where it is assumed you have prototype modules to fit on your suit for at least one decent fit, a prototype suit, a prototype weapon, and core skills to at least IV.
After that, it's just about maxing out with very limited benefit in exchange for huge SP sinkage, and diversifying. After about ~15mil on an assault class most of the noticeable effects of "maximizing" have taken effect and people start diversifying.
[Edit: And the above is honestly commentary on PC-readiness ... at the pub match level you can have a ton of fun and rack up kills for quite less than 1million SP. Don't forget, this is a long-term game that will be around for years with constant updates, and with regular double and triple SP events and boosters you are talking around three months until you are well on your way to a quite solid proto setup. Don't fret... it's not "never"] |

I didn't get through the entire thread, but I can tell you that if you are picking a corp because they are a "Top corp" you are making a mistake. Top corps come and go thus far in Dust. The previous corp I was in was a top 10 corp leader boards wise and had some success for awhile, now its not even in Dust. You are better off finding people you like playing with rather than just going to a corp because they are at the top at the moment because it can always change.

Personally, I love my Corp because they're a bunch of nice guys, they are exactly that kind of people you always have fun with, but we are generally open to new players and in the end this makes us a "relaxed" Corp, even though part of us kicks butts (there's a huge skill gap among our members). But I'm pretty sure it's very different for those "Top" Corps. I'd like to know "fun" is an important factor, but of course skill is a priority for competitive corporations.
Besides K/D Ratio (I don't know how important it is, after all), what are the recruitment criteria for such high-level Corps?
First off dont join the biggers ones. Work from the ground up, There are alot of good players out there they arent in the bigger corps.
If you want to be in the bigger corps. First be good at the game and have the SP to to run proto. |

That's how I joined Zion and Red Star. I just happened to fall into a battle with them, and they had an open slot.
Basically you have to squad up with them and show them, "Hey, I'm a kickass player. You may want me" If they like you, they may even invite you to the corp |

then how come you horde your recruits? a real training corp would urge them to leave and make room. |

Most of the big corps require you to fill out a written "test".
The most common questions asked are.
- What's your K/D ratio? - Are you PC ready? - What sound does a fox make?
Many people fail on the third question.. |

We make sure recruits are well aware that there are plenty of corps to go to, we even have corps that are waiting to recruit our fine students. |

Besides K/D Ratio (I don't know how important it is, after all), what are the recruitment criteria for such high-level Corps? Havent read the entire thread in case this has already been answered, but in STB we have a couple very clear-cut rules for recruits... 1 - Must be over 16 years of age or show an acceptable level of maturity 2 - Must have a mic and use it at all times 3 - Must be tolerant of all beliefs, orientations, relationships, etc. of the members. STB does not judge or discriminate and this is a serious offense. STB takes pride on being a family of players instead of being simply a clan or banner that people play under. We have had two people meet each other through STB and they are getting married soon. In addition, many of our members are friends in real life and have aided one another in significant ways even though they have never met face to face. On top of everything, we believe in playing in a competitive manner and maintaining a strong desire to win as a team, bettering not only ourselves, but our fellow corpmates at all times. In Dust, we also have a couple additional regulations, which if they cannot be met, the player will be referred to our training corp or our sister corp. This is not a denial, but rather us asking you to let us help improve your skills through hands-on training, metagame crunching, and overall improving mental strength. In order to bypass this, your character must possess at least a 2.0 KD, a 2.0 WL, and must have at least 10 million sp. We welcome any and all who are interested to apply, after which we will begin our screening process. o7 Every reason you shouldn't join them just got summed up by them... I join Murderz4hire beccause i was noticed as a tanker. Then Ahrendee Mercs. because something happened to M4H idk. |

No, SVER would be the last corporation I want to join up with. The last list of players I've met have been over the top d-bags. I can't stand arrogant players.
Props to Ahrendee Mercernaries though. The few players I met are real cool but when its time to go to work, they go to work. I respect that. I've been thinking about enlisting. |

Team Players are relatively unique in recruiting on Dust. We don't come from this game originally, nor will we remain on this game indefinitely.
Those that join us here by and large are welcomed to the family, and some are already playing other games with clan members.
All about friendship and enjoying each others company.
the difference here is, on top of that, we take pride in WINNING. wherever we are, that's the collective goal.
How to get in?
know someone, play with us, get noticed, good communication, good personality, and obviously, gotta be good.
Its all about chemistry and ability to get along. I don't 'train' people. you start out here being good. From there you simply learn how to be contribute to the TEAM effort with your role.
pretty simple really...

YO to all SVEr feeding ionto Trolls .
End it now
Teamplayers an Chicago do in fact stand superior to SVER. Everyone already knows that.
Regynum, an I as well as SVER, will never get along. So I ask regynum to avoid us an we will avoid you. a gentlemen's agreement.. An yes you have the right to deny such a request for diplomacy. But ask yourself is it truly necessary to continue a feud between us.
I apologies myself for inconveniencing many of the Teamplayers that I have grown to enjoy playing with.
Now I know that TRolls will feast upon this post. So be it. SVEr has aided Teamplayers a few times now. No not anywhere near the level of aid that TP has given SVER. I would hope that by now after the last unfortunate events that some TEAMPLAYERS an former IMPS would have some respect for the tenacity or the fortitude of SVER mercs an forgive the over-zealous act that transpired.
An please understand that as I can lead my men to water an higher morality choices. I cannot force them to drink or choose the right decision. I can however properly handle the situation when it is brought to light for me.
Now on both sides so set on displaying there colors in hopes to intimidate the other. I say "Stand down SVER" Teamplayers this is your rock. I am the first person to see that. No sense in rocking the boat.
No SVEr is to respond here If you do You tags may be voted upon.

I left my last corp because the only people I could ever fin to squad with were tankers, and as a pre uprising logi I found that useless, and boring.
aside from that they already had their A-Team picked and I wouldn't see the light of day in pc matches.
so I scouted corps that still needed pc players, and would have a good amount players to squad with, I was stuck between sver and burgezz honestly, end of the day I figured I would get in more pc battles with burgezz as they had a list of players a mile long.
I choose my corps, they don't choose me.
pick a corp where you can get good squads, and inevitably pc battles, practice, get better, and inevitably play the game you want to play.
if you join a corp just to watch their better players win pc battles an wear their tags, why bother? |
