CRYPT3C W0LF Krullefor Organization Minmatar Republic 185	Posted - 2014.01.13 15:04:00 - [1] - Quote Many people are thinking they'll get rich pounding scouts heads in, but what you dont know is how much scouts get for Nova knifing... Quote: For every kill you score with any Nova Knife while wearing any Scout Suit, youGÇÖll earn the following rewards: 1 x GÇÿNeoGÇÖ Scout gk.0 1x GÇÿNeoGÇÖ Scout mk.0 1x GÇÿFleshriverGÇÖ Ishukone Nova Knives You can earn up to 200 of each reward The ISK equivalent for both scout suits combined is 120'000 isk, adding the Nova knives is an additional 30'000 Isk = 150k; So 1 kill with a pair of nova knives on a scout will get you an entire matches worth of ISK in gear... Now Multiply that by 200: 150'000 x 200 = 30 million ISK worth of gear! Official Dust 514 Complaint Department Dedicated Scout

I won't be running my "normal" scout fit just so some scrub can get 50K ISK for killing me... I will be running a full BPO Dren suit (probably scout, but maybe Assault). I will be driving off into the sunset with my middle finger in the air to all those hoping for scout kills. GôêGÆ+GÆ+GÆ¦ - Causes headaches, it's official

Ok so IGÇÖm glad CCP have thought this through but at the same time its fcking bullsht that you are going to slap people on the wrist for doing this and not on anything else gamebreaking or exploitations that have been and are still going around. This is nothing compared to attacking your own districts to save people from attacking you and then going onto farming even more ISK in match with friendlies hacking installations back and forth.....

knight of 6 SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 1026	Posted - 2014.01.13 18:05:00 - [19] - Quote Sinboto Simmons wrote: DUST Fiend wrote: Getting kills with any kind of knife below proto is a feat, and should be well rewarded. Not too difficult with ADV blades, then again I am a Matari scout. Advanced knives aren't bad on a gallente scout either. I think I got 5 or so knife kills without trying. then some scout incurred my wrath, it was a fail match like 15 v 8 and he had the audacity to shotgun me while I had my map open, so I knifed him 3 times then when he got his nk suit and I shot him. score 4:1 me. nova knives are an insult weapon to me though, you got killed by me with nks? shame on you, shame on your family, shame on your cow. you weren't worth the bullet.

Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 492	Posted - 2014.01.13 18:09:00 - [20] - Quote If both had equal chances of survivability, you'd be right. But scouts die in two or three hits assuming they're not running plates.

Lucrezia LeGrand 208	Posted - 2014.01.13 18:45:00 - [21] - Quote Scouts getting a better reward for the shinobi event? Uhm, have you tried using nova knives? Sometimes you get a good streak, most times you don't. Nova knives are hard enough and the only reason why I'm going scout this event is so that others have a chance of making a lot of money and I can test myself on a "fairly difficult" challenge. Believe me, if my scout fitting wasn't cheap as dirt or I cared about my K/D ratio I would not run a scout this January. Btw, what level is the Dragonfly Scout suit at? It's standard, right? ya- hoi hoi
Roy Ventus Foxhound Corporation General Tso's Alliance 866	Posted - 2014.01.13 18:54:00 - [22] - Quote CCP is setting up some butthurt so that when 1.8/1.9 drops, Scouts will come out the door looking to **** something up. YOU AIN'T SLICK DEVELOPERS! With that being said. I'm not looking forward to any squad going full scout. 3 Scouts running around you with shotguns is horrible enough but imagine a squad of them with nova knives? Sure you can shoot but it's easier for them to dodge bullets or remain hidden on both passive and active scans and slice your neck open.

However, don't forget you can earn the rewards for both Operation Shinobi and Operation Shadow Hunt (you'll just have to use a different ~~fittings~~weapons for each). I don't think you understand the honor involved in the knife fight. If I see another scout with knives, I will NEVER pull out my gun. It's a fight to the death, right there. Knife style. By the way, so far I have seen red dots and blue dots respect this. I have gotten into multiple knife fights in the days leading up to this event, and most red/blue dot's ignore the fight and let us duke it out. I even got a crowd of 3 people (2 Reds, 1 Blue) who just watched the fight. It was beautiful. Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

Who cares if people spend imaginary lives to get imaginary gear? I for one hope they generate millions of the prize items. They'll be that much cheaper when (if) the market opens.

Hey, why isn't shotties included for this? I would rather use those. It's just that I don't like using NK's. It's basically the same method, as your in about the same range. Maybe it's the fact that I hate being too close to people? "Hello, world!" lol, sounds like something a whore lover would say Alt of the great Godin I like chocolate ^___^

Tch Tch Red Shirts Away Team 118	Posted - 2014.01.13 22:46:00 - [31] - Quote Support tickets don't work. Seen the same crew sitting at a supply depot one laid out a dozen hives the other shooting into the air. The logi ends the match with the highest WP and both he and his cohort are on 0/0 and never left the base. Reported it multiple times with character name, online ID and then I will login and within a week see the same cherubs doing the same thing. As the reporter you get no feedback not do you know the punishment if any. You can't tell if the chars are devs, cpms or scrubs or even bots. All you see is no action on the tickets and the same exploits being run by the same crew again and again. Sure it takes more effort then logging in with a swarm and doing triangle squats. But I'm yet to see any result from a punishment that changes behaviour. Tl;dr Don't bother login support tickets for exploits, you are literally wasting your time. Turrent - the sound a tankers pants makes when he finds out the four swarm militia doing squats around him aren't AFK.
