Hey guys just have a suggestion

Wy don't have no payouts if you loose a battle
Or the payout when loosing is reduced.

This will fix afk farming that many does and it will also be a isk sink that this game needs

Again this is a suggestion god or bad idk I just want your ides over this.

Regards

I, too, have a suggestion: learn how to spell.

Having been on voice comms with the OP, I laughed when I read this. English is not his first language by far. That being said, I've never had an issue understanding him. I can't say that for many Dust players...

As for the suggestion, I think you should be compensated for losing. However, make it like Eve. Lose your ship? You get a free rookie ship. Lose a match in Dust... The merc should be compensated with enough money to purchase a frontline level suit for each death. Twisted

I'm sorry to have to point this out, but when you lose your ship in eve, you don't get a free rookie ship. You get a payment, in isk, of a percentage of the average market value of the ship you lost, although just the hull, not the modules.

You get a rookie ship anytime you dock up in just your pod, when you don't have a ship in the station. The rookieship is pretty much useless for anything other than the tutorial missions and very slowly mining very small amounts of asteroids.

My character is on an indefinite vacation from Eve and I forgot about insurance. However, you have unwittingly provided an even better idea. Frontline suits are, practically speaking, BPO fittings. You cannot lose them, and therefore they function as the "rookie ship". CCP should introduce Insurance into Dust 514. You should be allowed to "insure" you battles. All battles are, after all, a business transaction between corporations and mercs. Battles should provide zero payout for a loss, but players should be able to recoup their losses through insurance. You could tier the insurance so that it provides 100% refund for standard gear. Advanced would have a lower payout, and Proto would have the lowest as it is costly to insure prototype weaponry.
