Would be great if we could get him to publicly disavow such practices so that if/when Dust does turn P2W we can poop all over this game and leave in droves. |

that **** was p2w as ****
P2W would be even worse in a game like Dust, being a persistent 'mmo'.
If a game like CoD had P2W practices then it really only makes it annoying and cheap.
But if for instance, WoW had a PVP server where you could buy top tier PVP gear, it would make the whole game a joke. |

To an extent.
And to some extent the "open market" might equalize or minimize the negative effects of "Pay to win" but perhaps not entirely. |

Just something else besides clones!
In the sense that clones = money.
and money = vehicles, equiptment, or weapons.
They kind of already do.
So having districts which did those things would be limiting the current status (however this might still be interesting or fun) |

Just something else besides clones! "It's I'm the road map" - someone in ccp at some point, somewhere. Also this community will react strongly, possibly violently if a shift to p2w happens. ... remember the 'cavity' m2 contact grenades fiasco? Besides rouge still has to answer to hilmar.
Boosters are kinda P2W but only up to a certain point. Because past 7-10m SP you can have a solid character long as you didn't spend it all wrong.
Not being able to respec makes this worse for players with less SP, but having an AUR item that lets you grind to unallocate SP (like an active booster) would kind of fix that issue. Also if and when these items go on the player market tradeable for ISK.
But anything more than that is heavy creep into some serious P2W nonsense.
