DUST Search - Remove payouts for loosing

So squads can just proto stomp the newer low SP/ISK players into the ground in every match until they all run out of money and have to run nothing but starter fits and have even less chance of ever winning and actually making money?
GTFO.

How to kill DUST in a month: Remove ISK payouts for the losing team.

There's already a large enough gap between "Vets" and newer players since matchmaking is broken as ****, and you actually want further segregation so that you can pub stomp with impunity and have a circle jerk with your buddies and tell each other how awesome you are for going 30+/1 in proto gear against a bunch of starter fits?

******* hell man, are you THAT unskilled of a player that you need yet ANOTHER advantage over the new players?

Do us all a favor before you post again and try to think from the perspective of a new player to this game. Would you stick around if you never got paid because your team never won due to a bunch of proto using players? **** no you wouldn't, and I wouldn't blame you.

Its a big enough challenge as it is for new players to get into this game and learn the mechanics/skill system, what weapon suits them when everything costs ISK per death, and on average 50000-200000 ISK for the skill books to even try out a weapon, module, or equipment without spending real money on AUR.

Do you think a new player will even think of spending real money on a game that they have no chance of advancing in because the older players with all the money and SP can just pull out top tier equipment and mop the floors with them, causing them to lose more ISK, and gain nothing for their effort in an inevitable losing battle?

I agree that there has to be some incentive to actually try and win each fight, but removing the ISK payout for the losing team is not the answer.

One could go the rout of removing proto suits and weapons from pub matches (Let people run proto modules and equipment if they want, they will have to sacrifice something due to the lower PG and CPU of the basic and adv suits), because its the ability of the proto suits to stack everything proto and adv that makes such a huge gap between player skill vs player gear.

Would also help get players to play the objective. People in BETA cried and whined on the forums when CCP mentioned they were thinking of introducing active only SP. These players were crying that people will get ahead of them in SP - not accepting that there will always be a spread of sp level players - well apparently there is; apparently some have over 30m SP and some have under 4m. Outcome of the crying? AFK still isnt fixed.

Earn your WP and then have a multiplier of 5 or higher. I do not support increasing the time to cap - whatever is a reasonable active mulitplier. why wont it work? people grinding isk? tie it into having to earn WP too? Though I would bet that the majority of AFKing is for SP.
Leonid Tybalt Dark Knightz Corp. 215	Posted - 2014.01.28 12:11:00 - [22] - Quote No it wouldn't fix a damn thing. Payout should be based on individual or squad performance in terms of warpoints in public matches. It would be unfair to lose money or just breaking even because you and your squad happen to get paired up with complete noobs in public matches (you have no control over who Scotty's gonna pair you up with, therefore you can't hold individual players responsible for the loss) Also it wouldn't make sense for mercenaries to fight for nothing. Imagine that you're working as a mercenary in the real world and an employer wants to hire you to protect a vehicle convoy in a warzone. That means travel expenses for you, plus you have to possess a certain degree of competence which has to be rewarded AND you have to put your own life on the line and exepct to go up against people shooting at you. Would YOU sign a contract that basically says that if the convoy gets destroyed (even if it happens because someone other than you screws up) you get no money at all? Of course you wouldn't! (that would be more like gambling than a job) You'd demand a deal that says win or lose you get paid so you can offset your own personal expenses and still make it worthwhile for you to take the job, BUT with some sort of incentive to insure that you do the best job you possibly can (like a bonus pay on completing the mission successfully or the promise of getting more contracts from your employer in the future etc.) Afk isk farming would be fixed more effectively by including more parameters for getting kicked due to inactivity (just standing still doesn't cut it, because an isk farmer can solve that by spawning in the mcc and using a strip of tape on the game controller).
Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 4372	Posted - 2014.01.28 13:08:00 - [23] - Quote Since nobody telling you to improve your English actually offered a constructive explanation, I'll start with that. Loose is the opposite of tight. In the right context, "loosing" can be the act of releasing something, like an arrow. In the context where you tried to use it, "loose" or "loosing" are nonsensical terms. LOSE is the opposite of win, and LOSING is the word you were looking for. That said, there is already a reduced payout for losing, and a greater reward for destroying more expensive enemy equipment. This means that if your enemies are pubstomping while you're in a disorganised team, you're going to lose and get reduced payout, but the fact that you're losing to high-level enemies means that any losses they take will provide a larger payout to balance out the loss. Similarly, losing against similarly-equipped enemies will result in a noticable advantage to the winning team in terms of ISK gained. I think it's reasonable to ask that Faction Warfare has further reduction in payout for losing, and further increase in payout for the winners to make it a more attractive playground for higher-level players, and less of a viable part of the new player experience, encouraging less skilled/experienced/confident players to stay in random public matches instead. This might also encourage the more competitive players currently pubstomping to go for the higher rewards in FW instead of taking the low-risk option.

deezy dabest cobra connection Dark Taboo 184	Posted - 2014.01.28 13:40:00 - [29] - Quote I have long believed that SP payout for time in battle should be removed completely in exchange for a tiered multiplier of warpoints based on rank and activity. I feel like the way the isk is calculated works great, the only issues being that the protostompers reap the benefit in having their money returned to them while the losing side is stuck shaking their heads. To counter this the payout for time in battle becomes less thanks to the battle being shorter, but that effect needs to be increased. If the payout for the length of the battle grew at more of an exponential rate where a 10 minute battle has significantly less than a 15 minute battle (an example being 1k for first minute, 2k for the second, and so on) the system would further reward the battles which go back and forth while the protostomps and redlines receive a lower payout from the pool but a higher payout from lost equipment if the opposing team keeps fighting. tl;dr drop time in battle SP, raise time in battle isk pool exponentially over the course of the battle = screw afkers, redliners, and protostompers + reward those who fight back against redlines and protostomps to keep the match going and kill expensive suits with freebies

He is referring to passive SP in battle (aka bonus SP) which is an additional 5 per second on top of the 24k per day passive SP. That bonus SP is what keeps AFKers smoking a cig in the MCC and getting paid for it.
