I wanna thank the person that thought up the rewards for this last factional warfare contest last week. Just wanted you to know that I have to come up with another 3.5 million SP before I can enjoy these rewards... Thanks a lot. Really happy that I have to wait 4 months to enjoy what I earned outright... I can't even tell you how much money I lost using all my advanced suits/ gear to make sure I pulled the percentages to earn the rewards... that I can't use.... |

Before we were getting rewards you could use on your first day of playing Dust, which made the long time players a bit upset. Can't please everyone until they implement a system where we can choose from a list of rewards. |

Why would you waste suits to earn things you don't want?
I wanted the Gallente rewards but I would have went bankrupt and still maybe not even win them. |

Triple SP has been the only reward worth grinding for.
Unique items and officer weapons should be rewards, not just a bunch of junk I can already buy on the market.

- Get people to play a fixed number of matches (say, 30).
- Instead of setting up a minimum winning threshold (e.g. 55%), make it a sliding scale. The higher your win% (up to the 55%), the better. This way everyone gets a prize that's in line with their effort and skills.
- Let winners select prizes for a number of meta levels. This way players can decide whether they want a load of cheap gear, or a few proto items. This is good for beginners and vets, and everyone can get the equipment they need. This will encourage more people to play.

That would lead to more protostomping, or a proto-only event. |

I wanted the rewards... I wanted the Amarr Logi suit. In the worst way... I can't wait to build a sniper off of it... and I use drop uplinks all the time.. But I wish someone would have told me off the bat, like CCP, that the rewards could only be used once SP requirements where met.... I probably wouldn't have participated then. |

You are aware they made a long post listing the rewards you will recieve, you could have looked at them, seen you can't use them and then decide to not use your Adv gear.
Why are you acting like this is some sort of huge surprise CCP is springing on you when the rewards have been public for weeks before the event started. |

More?
Not possible.
Proto Only?
Sounds like people would have to actually make an investment in the event. Not a few quality players relying on a bunch of MLTberries that are just pissing in the wind to maybe try to get a single objective while 1 squad holds 60% of the map.

You're right, I've been protostomped nearly every single match. Just trying to be diplomatic!
Making an investment in the game is fair, but it would also mean that events are a waste of time and ISK for newberries and many lone wolves.
We need better matchmaking for newberries to stay. For better matchmaking, we need more players. I hope this isn't a downward spiral... |

I just took part to help out the corp mates who did want to take part.
I believe we won 75% of the required battles 
When player trading comes out I'll just sell them or give it to the corp |

You probably also lost a couple 2-3x a much isk as the rewards are worth just earning the things.
The point of the event was not rewards it was loyalty, and an insight into FW related rewards in future. |

SO what you're TRYING to say is...
... CCP can expect you to hang out for the next 4 months grinding and buying boosters to earn 3.5million SP which they have provided you with a reason to want?
And they're stupid hoooowwww exactly?

The event was meant to produce an Amarr FW comeback. Not sure if it worked, but I know pretty much every person in Dust was fighting for Amarr during the event. The rewards were a way to make everyone fight for Amarr, and that part definitely worked. |
