Once again they somehow managed to make a SP event a massive grind. Instead of just triple all active SP they've only tripled the 1 WP = 1 SP part.

Passive battle SP is not increased, it's only active battle SP that is increased.

For information, there's two parts to active SP:

1: There's the 1 WP = 1 SP part as outlined above. This part will be tripled.

2: Then there's the 1 second in battle = 5 SP part. This part will NOT be tripled, and funnily enough this part is where the majority of your active SP comes from.

When does CCP learn from their mistakes?

The bolded part is known as Passive SP gained in battle. LOL... The community has been demanding that those SP not be awarded, as it causes people to AFK. Where have you been??

CCP has actually done this one right for a change. Get with the program. Twisted

You seriously want to play 30+ hours just to cap out? The active bonus should be 15x if there's no bonus passive sp

Shijima Kuraimaru WarRavens League of Infamy 368	Posted - 2013.11.05 22:44:00 - [121] - Quote Here's my take on a SP system that has both passive and active. Active SP , and contract ISK pay out, is only awarded for earned WP. No WP earning possible inside the MCC. I know this will hurt low WP earners, myself being one of them, but I'd rather have a whole team participating and actually trying than part of them AFKing. This would allow CCP ot raise, if not eliminate, the weekly SP cap. Passive SP get's boosted by an extra fifty to one-hundred percent. PS: If I had my way, the only rewards for battles would be ISK and salvage with an entirely passive SP system.

I would be all for it as well, but there is this little problem: For a lot of the people still playing Dust, capping their sp is one of the things keeping them here. Remove active sp, and you remove their reason for playing so many hours. Lower playing population. On the other hand, maybe more newbies would remain in the game if it was not such a grindfest.

My problem with active SP is that it cracks the door open for boosters, exploiters and cheaters. It also encourages people to play for points not to play for fun or for glory.

If the only thing keeping the players here is a false sense of accomplishment brought on by grinding then we lost those players a long time ago and they just don't know it.
