I think this will get moved and/or locked by a mod, but I'm not sure how many people check the FEEDBACK section of the forums. They are looking for feedback and there are some things that desperately need it.
This is something that can liven this game up and it needs to be done right. LINK TO DEV POST

it all sounds promising but 1.4 did also and 1.5. Both were a giant disappointment on release. If they do these changes and they work properly without screwing half* of the players over then great but im not expecting it |

No ISK payouts. You earn LP for use in the LP store but it's based on racial gear from that faction and no secondary market.
To me this will kill it before it really gets started. Or it will kill pubs as people will hide in the red line even more to maximize profits. |

The isk payouts are going to be a huge issue.
I would understand it if we had a market, but it'd be nice if we could keep them until the market arrives because otherwise FW players simply have no income. |

We definitely need a player market for FW to really thrive. |

Imagine running PC matches all down with no ISK payout. Only LP that allows you to buy 25% of the gear that you actually use. |

I very much agree. I feel like FW will become a mode where people "farm" LP to make a living like they do in FW in EVE. Without a market it'll be a game mode that takes but does not give anything. Unless I can buy a fully fit suit for 5 LP this mode is going to be brutal for anyone without hundreds of millions until the market is introduced.
Personally the idea of grinding pub matches just so you can compete in FW seems a bit silly. Maybe at first this should be something you do, like PC. Grind away to save up money, but after a certain point your actions on the battlefield should be rewarded and there should be a point where you profit. |

Yes, then the Caldari and Amarr will have even more supporters just for the LP and Caldari/Amarr stuff in the LP store. |

Glad I'm not the only one thinking this. I'm worried this will just become a repeat of the last event... except spanning for FOREVER because right now the meta/FOTM favors those sides. |

Exactly. Even I, a dedicated Scrambler Rifle (and occasionally Forge Gun  ) user, even I will not be fighting for the Amarr just for the FOTM rewards. |

They need to keep isk payouts, maybe at 50%, until the Market or Contracts are released. They can remove it then. Even at that, you will have to get some pubs in to maintain your isk balance. 50% payout is still a sizable isk sink.
CCP, please tell me again why player to player Contracts aren't in game yet?  Hell, even a Merc to Merc market. If you are so afraid of the potential crashing of the Eve market, you can add that later. Let us decide how much stuff is worth, then you'll have your metric on the tax rate to apply to the Eve to Dust isk transfer.
****, it's not rocket science.  |

Oh hell yea!! That looks exciting. I know its on the horizon but I'm really liking that CCP is moving forward with making the clear distinction between FW and public contracts! I wonder though how the LPs will work and how it will affect gameplay. I do like getting my ISK for the FW contracts. I don't want to just get LPs and see that a day's worth of FW playing does nothing to bolster my wallet for other ISK means. But I guess they will elaborate on this as they discuss it in their War room.
But all in all...I like where this is going. State PeaceKeepers all the way!! Anubis Prime Syndicate will be extending their hands to the effort. For the State! |

You will get more supporters when the Minnie Weapons and Dropsuits come out, you do not even know how big a following you have. |

People have millions of SP sunk into multiple racial items. It's not necessarily about releasing new stuff here. It's about a game mode that doesn't allow for the vast majority of the players to even break even.
Perhaps this would have been possible 10 months ago before we chose our skill paths. If it's released the way they are discussing you have a game mode that you have to grind ISK in pubs to afford while grinding SP to build a racial fitting that is sustainable economically.
I don't think this is something people will be willing to do for long. Perhaps if it were team deploy where a corporation could help fund players through PC earnings, but there are only a few corps able to do this.
As others have said there is a small percentage of players with the wallets that could support this game mode. Do we have player numbers to support this? I don't believe so.

As far as I can remember, one of the devs stated that they didn't want to introduce the LP system, for there would then be 6 currencies to keep track of. Why the change in attitude now? |
