CCP Eterne C C P C C P Alliance 3141	Posted - 2014.02.10 10:41:00 - [1] - Quote In February, the hearts of many grow heavy. But love is a battlefield and there are none better equipped to deal with the damage than the mercenaries of DUST 514. And toughest of all of them are the brave men and women who don the heavy suits, acting as a shield and line of defense for their more squishy squad mates. Operation Mauler It's time for the heavies to make their power known on the battlefield! From February 19th to March 5th, players can participate in Operation Mauler, where heavy suit users will be pitted against those who stick to the lighter suits to prove their skills. This event will run across all contract types. Wear a Basic Heavy or Sentinel dropsuit and score kills with heavy weapons to earn bonus SP and extra weapons to continue your destructive rampage! For every kill you make with a HMG or Forge Gun, you'll earn extra 500 SP (up to a cap of 500k SP), plus one Prototype AUR version of the weapon you used (up to a total of 300). Plus, if you kill a vehicle, you'll earn double the WP earned for the kill as bonus SP (up to a cap of 250k SP). That means there's a potential total of 750000 bonus SP to be earned! But life as a heavy isn't all tank kills and bonus SP. Because anyone who scores a kill against a player wearing a Basic Heavy or Sentinel suit will earn bonus 250 bonus SP (up to the same 500k SP cap) plus an ISK bounty based on the tier of the dropsuit (capped at 10 million ISK).

THEAMAZING POTHEAD Nyain San Renegade Alliance 912	Posted - 2014.02.10 11:45:00 - [12] - Quote This is a good event, because the SP reward is very appropriately placed, even if we get 20 kills as a heavy its only 10k SP, and up to 500k, which is 1000 kills, thats alot but those who get them deserve the SP. Consider the average skirm is 4k SP, then cosider thats 8 kills for heavies in the event, which sounds about right for the average blueberry in skirmy. Then considering the difficulty of a tank kill with AV, the 250k (250tank kills) is nearly impossible to reach unless you go tryhard mode and play alot, in which case you deserve the SP. The rewards are also very enticing for heavies for that good SP, so i expect to see a decent amount. That means other suits will have a good chance at killing heavies too.

This means both Standard, Advanced and Prototype (can't remember if there are any LP or other Basic suits, but they would count as well). All Sentinel suits count. This means Militia, Standard, Advanced, Prototype, Aurum, LP (litterally all Sentinel suits). There are no Basic Sentinel suits. Otherwise you should be correct on the other points.

Is it includes only vehicle destroying point(for example:if I killed a tank, I get 1502=300SP as bonus.) or includes killing the driver(it adds 502=100 points)? And can't I get the SP if I use AV grenades, swarms, or so? The other question is about killing heavy suits.Can I get SP as bonus,when I kill the heavys while I use medium or light suits,or using light weapons?

This. XD Disturbingly Bored wrote: Will wearing my Templar Sentinel BPO count as wearing a "basic" Sentinel suit for the purpose of this event? It's classified as "sentinel" so it should qualify. I think what they meant by "basic" are the suits with 1/2, 2/2, and 2/3 slot loadouts that don't get the sentinel bonuses or require the sentinel skill. The "basic frame" suits. I don't think they meant basic in the sense of standard level suits. Basic is a describer of modules BTW (i.e. basic shield extender). Links: List of Most Important Threads I make logistics videos!

lithkul devant Legions of Infinite Dominion Zero-Day 143	Posted - 2014.02.10 16:05:00 - [47] - Quote The forge lightning balls of death are going to be raining...I suggest any dropship or LAV to kiss their ass goodbye now, HAV's you might be cool for a minute or two, but you'll die just as well. Every heavy suit knows that the HMG sucks, except at proto levels really, and if no one plays the heavy suit people will be sad pandas as they don't get those bonus sp and isk. So lets hope for the friendly vehicle armageddon that is sure to come. Though I honestly wish they would have added commando suits onto the list though can understand it...since it is for heavy weapons only.
Quil Evrything Triple Terrors 926	Posted - 2014.02.10 16:24:00 - [48] - Quote Waait... So Militia Heavy doesnt count, for getting kills as a Heavy? Which means Eon BPO doesnt count? :( If militia doesnt count, then a beginner Heavy player would have to drop a freakin boatload of SP into this to make it ISK effective, since "basic heavy" frames cost a boatload, compared to sentinel. yeah, I know for the scout event, "militia" ones didnt count... but light frames didnt count either. In this one, you're letting basic heavy frames count. So how about letting militia count as well? After all, it's really about promoting use of true Heavy Weapons, isnt it?

What if you get a vehicle kill, and there are heavies inside? That could theoretically count towards either reward, depending on what youre wearing at the time. So... what are the answers, CCP?

Militia GÇô 2000 ISK Standard GÇô 10000 ISK Advanced GÇô 25000 ISK Prototype GÇô 50000 ISK So, I have some questions. How much point I can get when I kill a vehicle? Is it includes only vehicle destroying point(for example:if I killed a tank, I get 1502=300SP as bonus.) or includes killing the driver(it adds 502=100 points)? And can't I get the SP if I use AV grenades, swarms, or so? The other question is about killing heavy suits.Can I get SP as bonus,when I kill the heavys while I use medium or light suits,or using light weapons? (Excuse me for my poor English, but many japanese mercs are waiting the answer.) For killing a vehicle in a heavy suit with a Forge Gun you will get double the SP and double the driver kill. We are looking into if counting passenger kill is possible. Only vehicle kills with the Forge Gun count or HMG (on LAV for example) will receive double SP. However, you can use AV grenades or swarm launcher to weaken the vehicles first. Yes on the last question you get the kill heavy suit SP reward. However, if you kill a heavy suit with a HMG then you will get credit for both objectives i.e. kill bonus with HMG and kill bonus for the heavy.

Militia GÇô 2000 ISK Standard GÇô 10000 ISK Advanced GÇô 25000 ISK Prototype GÇô 50000 ISK So, I have some questions. How much point I can get when I kill a vehicle? Is it includes only vehicle destroying point(for example:if I killed a tank, I get 1502=300SP as bonus.) or includes killing the driver(it adds 502=100 points)? And can't I get the SP if I use AV grenades, swarms, or so? The other question is about killing heavy suits.Can I get SP as bonus,when I kill the heavys while I use medium or light suits,or using light weapons? (Excuse me for my poor English, but many japanese mercs are waiting the answer.) For killing a vehicle in a heavy suit with a Forge Gun you will get double the SP and double the driver kill. We are looking into if counting passenger kill is possible. Only vehicle kills with the Forge Gun count or HMG (on LAV for example) will receive double SP. However, you can use AV grenades or swarm launcher to weaken the vehicles first. Yes on the last question you get the kill heavy suit SP reward. However, if you kill a heavy suit with a HMG then you will get credit for both objectives i.e. kill bonus with HMG and kill bonus for the heavy. Thank you very much!

The ISK is a pretty good reward too but I imagine just about 45% of all players will be heavy suits. So this is a message to all players using Low damage per clip but high DPS weapons. (designed for dealing with a few militia or basic at once) You might want to spend some skill points on High damage per clip weapons before the event. RoF is meaningless if you don't have a big enough clip to put those heavies down. On a side note I am certain all of you already know this, but this message was mostly targeted to the newer players.

Just to mention a few things: The combat rifle is unplayable (laggs extremely hard on pretty much every map, because pretty much every map laggs). There is no controls setup, that allows you to drive a tank, because if you use the standard controls, you can't shoot for no reason when using any hardener (i lost over 10 standard tanks), and if you use the 'Duty Calls' setup, you can't reload. Sometimes vehicles have the random will to explode, for example when landing a dropship. Sniping is no option for me because on the one side you canGÇÖt climb on any mountain because you lagg and bugg so hard, that it is just impossible, and on the other side most of the time my enemies seem to have an invincibility shield against sniper bullets (unfortunately this item isn't available for me on the market, although everyone else seems to have it). Sometimes I spawn over a hole and die. In my proto suit. Sometimes when I jump out of the MCC I explode. Between me and Dust there is something like a hatelove, although the hate is much bigger than the love. I donGÇÖt want to be unfriendly, I am very thankful for this awesome game, but at the current version of this game (which isnGÇÖt even on early beta-niveau), it is unplayable, and thus I wonGÇÖt play it anymore (until the update comes out in a few decades). I would ask to fix all these problems, but they exist since I started playing this game, months ago, so they donGÇÖt seem to be severe enough to get fixed. I accepted these bugs all these months long, to play an awesome game, but in the last few days I lost so many suits and tanks because of bugs, I just had to leave all my anger out. I wrote this text to show you, that this update is very important for me, it is important for all of us, not only to bring new content, but to fix all those annyoing bugs that make this game unplayable. I postet this text at this section, because i hoped that the update will be released in February, but at this moment I am not sure anymore. I hope that the (very) long-awaited update will come out in the next days and that it brings fixes for those bugs and that it is a part of your "February Events". Yours Zaos Kathar PS: BRING THE UPDATE

For example, I got the suits for the shinobi event but no idea if I got the ISK or how much it was. So, for this event, is the SP/ISK awarded right away, or will it be given all at once later like the weapons? We will put the item rewards in the character redeem queue so you get to decide which character gets them. We are looking into doing the same for ISK rewards. Skill point rewards will be put into your character's skill point pool. We will give out all reward types after the event has concluded.

Maybe you guys could provide the full event information on the start screen? There is already a blurb about Operation Mauler, which is something I guess, but it doesn't include basic info like which actions are rewarded or even when the event starts and ends. It's a bit unreasonable to expect us to check the thread every day just in case you've changed the terms. Your saying you dont check the 'dev posts' tab at the top of the forums every few hours like everyone else? Just this morning there were eight of those.

It's still coming though! And as always, if you see someone boosting, report it! The GMs take great pleasure in squishing people that boost in these events. How do GMs tell, definitively, if someone is or is not boosting? What if someone happens to find a spot where heavies are constantly spawning and just kill them? What if someone queue syncs a FW and they have someone on the other side drop an uplink for them and they camp it? I would appreciate it if you could tell us, exactly, how you go about determining if someone is, in fact, boosting in an event. Cause, I camp uplinks during events and I don't want to be banned for boosting when I wasn't.

At first I thought 'this will be an awful grind'. Then I started using HMG and enjoyed it. But after a while it become an awful grind after all. I am sick of having to run HMGs every game if I want to taste a reasonable amount of the extra SP. (I don't like tower forging in pubs, and FG is not really going to get you many kills if you're on the ground.) I know it's bonus SP, in addition to the usual SP payout. But CCP know and every player knows that SP is the main thing, or at least one of the main things, driving the game. People pay actual money for boosters, so of course they're going to go out of their way to get extra SP. The problem is, it is not fun, AT ALL, to run the same weapon (one I wouldn't usually use) every game. And we're only a few days into the event - how bored is everyone who's doing the event going to be in a week and a half? I play the game most days, but I'm still only getting 500 kills per week, so about 1000 for the duration of the event. That's more than most of the playerbase. But with the 500SP per HMG/FG kill bonus and 750,000SP bonus cap, you need 1,500 kills. So even if I use HMG constantly, I'm not going to hit the cap. The cap should have been set way lower. I thought 400,000 at first, but even that is too high. I think 200,000 or 300,000 would have been better. 400,000SP is 800 kills, so given I'm getting some kills with grenades, SMGs and OBs even when I carry HMG, even a 400,000SP cap would mean I had to carry HMG every game if I'm going to get all the bonus SP. So that's just as grindy as 750,000SP. But with 200,000 or 300,000, you 'only' need 400 or 600 kills. So a player who plays roughly as much as I do would get a little 'wriggle room', and wouldn't need to run HMG every game. Please CCP, for future events, set the 'number of kills with specific weapons (HMG/FG in this case) to exhaust bonus SP' much lower. Setting it as high as 750,000, or even 400,000-500,000, just makes the event ubergrindy. At least with the vanilla trebled SP cap you could play how you wanted. I feel like this event turns players off from the game, by forcing them to choose between SP and enjoyment. Finally, I should say that event stat tracking is also very much needed.

I feel like this event turns players off from the game, by forcing them to choose between SP and enjoyment. Finally, I should say that event stat tracking is also very much needed. Thanks for the feedback. The grind element is there for this event partly to encourage players to play more. However, I also understand where you're coming from, to some, this could seem to be excessive. The idea is to give players a big SP bonus, so we set it to 750K. The feeling of it being a grind is in the SP per kill amount. If we set the SP reward to say, 1000 SP per kill for the next event, that would effectively cut down the kills required to reach the cap by half. So, instead of having to make between 1000 to 1500 kills, it would be around 500 to 750 kills. I am open to discussion on this, so let me know your thoughts. We also agree that progression tracking is sorely needed and are negotiating with the development team to up the priority to make this feature.

But with the 500SP per HMG/FG kill bonus and 750,000SP bonus cap, you need 1,500 kills. So even if I use HMG constantly, I'm not going to hit the cap. The cap should have been set way lower. I thought 400,000 at first, but even that is too high. I think 200,000 or 300,000 would have been better. 400,000SP is 800 kills, so given I'm getting some kills with grenades, SMGs and OBs even when I carry HMG, even a 400,000SP cap would mean I had to carry HMG every game if I'm going to get all the bonus SP. So that's just as grindy as 750,000SP. But with 200,000 or 300,000, you 'only' need 400 or 600 kills. So a player who plays roughly as much as I do would get a little 'wriggle room', and wouldn't need to run HMG every game. Please CCP, for future events, set the 'number of kills with specific weapons (HMG/FG in this case) to exhaust bonus SP' much lower. Setting it as high as 750,000, or even 400,000-500,000, just makes the event ubergrindy. At least with the vanilla trebled SP cap you could play how you wanted. I feel like this event turns players off from the game, by forcing them to choose between SP and enjoyment. Finally, I should say that event stat tracking is also very much needed.

However, I also understand where you're coming from, to some, this could seem to be excessive. The idea is to give players a big SP bonus, so we set it to 750K. The feeling of it being a grind is in the SP per kill amount. If we set the SP reward to say, 1000 SP per kill for the next event, that would effectively cut down the kills required to reach the cap by half. So, instead of having to make between 1000 to 1500 kills, it would be around 500 to 750 kills. I am open to discussion on this, so let me know your thoughts. We also agree that progression tracking is sorely needed and are negotiating with the development team to up the priority to make this feature. Are you suggesting cutting the kills needed mid event? First you found a bug you missed after the event started, makign the vehicle kill portion no longer needed, now, unless I'm reading this wrong, you're suggesting you might cut the kills needed in half? I doubt you have efficient stat tracking to track everyone's current kill count and I highly doubt you can just lower the kill count and actually compensate for those that have gone over the new kill count or are still under it. That is, unless I read it wrong. By the way, a dev/GM has yet to answer my question about how you guys are actually able to tell if someone is boosting or not. Have you guys looked at the leader boards lately? I'm pretty sure a lot of those folks are boosting. If you aren't constantly watching the top players, then you people are hypocrites that deserve to have your game fail. Just saying.

We also agree that progression tracking is sorely needed and are negotiating with the development team to up the priority to make this feature. To be honest one of the biggest problems with these kind of events is That unles you take a pen and paper and literally write down everyone you kill; there is no way to know when you are done. CCP is tracking this hence The tools are already out there to make a small tab in the end of battle with your progression status of the event. For example in the event tab (which only appears if events of this type are active), you can have; taking this event as an example: Kills with heavy weapon and Heavies you've killed All in all, the grind is made worse because there is a huge uncertainty of just how far along you are in the event. I for example am writing down all the kills I do in a match without including any kill done with any other weapon. But I still dont know how many heavies I killed with my HMG because that would be too much work... Si I have to stick to just trying to hit the fabled 1500 kills in a 2 week period. Now again this is a grind but it's made worse because we as players don't know how many kills we have. BTW this is around 107 kills per day... Thats 10 matches getting at least 10 kills in most and 11 or 12 in some matches. Many poeple might say this is easy but, we also have to take into consideration that the HMG is a short ranged weapon with a very small window of engagement. As far as things are, camping is not always a solution because you are at the mercy of the enemy actually wanting to come to your point after you kill a couple of them. Which if you are good enough they will stop doing so. Then if you are bored you have to travel to another point wasting even more time or resources while still not giving you the security of actually getting kills since, as a heavy most other weapon types will have killed the enemy before you get into your optimal which already has about 50% decrease in damage via spread (at it's optimal; yes you heard right ^^). Also did read the points I just thought that adding a post of the same nature would make it double important? TL;DR Grind is too much for the weapon type (any other weapon type would have been fine with these numbers but the HMG is a handicap in most situations where your enemy has half a brain to kill you from 20 meters and above) No visual way to know where your standing in the event; I.E. summary that tells you how far along you are (kills with HMG/heavies killed) The event is great, don't get me wrong but it's a bit too much for a weapon that is out DPS'ed at ranges above 14 meters and is couple with a slow suit.

This week I had one 39 kill game (with logi support), a couple of other 30-odd kill games, but the majority are below 15. The first game I played with RR+medium for a change I got 41 kills, and it was 20+ every game after that. This is with advanced suit, proto weapon with high proficiency, and M1 grenades - same combination I use with HMG. Basically the HMG is a difficult weapon to run all game, every game because it is so situational. That makes the grind worse than it would be with many weapons.

So, instead of having to make between 1000 to 1500 kills, it would be around 500 to 750 kills. I am open to discussion on this, so let me know your thoughts. We also agree that progression tracking is sorely needed and are negotiating with the development team to up the priority to make this feature. IMO, I personally think the reward per killed should be upped to reduce the grindy feel of this event. It's kinda fun running around mass-murdering with an HMG but it's very difficult to sit through it all when situations change and a slow heavy is no-longer optimal. Reducing the time input necessary would be a big help to get these guys back into their preferred suits. Another thing I want to point out is that, for some players, there's a level of SP investment before hand due to a lack of militia HMGs. 335,800 (out of the 750,000 reward) just to use a standard HMG unless you're using Loyalty Store HMGs (considerable time investment) or Aurum HMGs (requires payment! Which... might not be a bad thing actually.) It's kind of a punch in the gut for some players to have to invest SP to get more in the end, which they aren't forced to but let's be honest it's certainly a hell of a lot easier than grinding out FW matches to pay for the tools you need to participate in the event =P Useful Links //forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=133588 //forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=134182

There have been all kinds of other events, NONE of which REMOTELY catered to a heavy user. who along with scouts have been shunned more than anyone on this game (until soon obviously) Now an event comes out that actually promotes the endangered species of heavy users, and ppl wanna whine even more. Get off it. U want the SP, get lvl 1 hmg and a lvl 1 fat suit and get to work, or better yet sit back and farm fatties and get your bonus SP that way... this is a good event for not only the dedicated heavies, but also good for people to try out a new class, and for people to stop running from us :P You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity - Nietzche

My point is the game is so unfun at this point that events like this do more to showcase how bad things have got than add any enjoyment value. People are not pooping on your event there screaming out that playing dust is not fun. If it was fun we would be seeing lots of heavy sux/ heavys rule threads. Instead a see a very inactive fourm with just the same names poating. Food for thought this game on advarage has had around 3000 players active for well over a year. Now just think for a second that implies that dust has a freaking HUGE drop out rate either at the end game or the npe or both. Even EvE is still growing. Unless dust gets an signifact overhall its going to suffer a death of thounsdand cuts, if thats not happend all ready. Im angry and busy so doubt im very clear, so the sort version is. Dust is unfun end of and their are new games hitting the market that will do what Dust514 does better. Noone gives a about the EvE link because it has no impact on how we actullay shoot at each other. Which is more an exerise in finding someone fighting the controls and then finding out they out gear ypu so your **** anyway.

Grand Master Kubo PIanet Express Canis Eliminatus Operatives 40	Posted - 2014.02.24 17:11:00 - [242] - Quote Personally, I have no problem with the grind of events past and present. For me, events are put in place to break up the monotony of the game. After putting so many hours in to Dust, players will find that they are getting bored. When I get bored I try new things. I try flying dropships, I try out commandos, I try the plasma cannon. Of course there are always the players that never switch up their playstyle. The types of players who run the same fit over and over and over again. How do they not get bored? How could they be so mindless? What I want from CCP is more events. It doesn't matter what they are but I need to be given something to do; something to strive towards in game. Also, they don't have to be skill point events. The Black Eagle event was really awesome in my opinion. It gave me the chance to use a sneaky and speedy suit with two light weapons. Plus it gave newer players the chance to try out a halfway decent scout suit without having to skill into scouts. Obviously attaining a 5.0 K/D was nearly impossible, I just said to myself that I may as well try it and it was a blast. Events are a way of pulling players away from the "flavour of the month" fits. During this heavy event I was playing in a game against kaizuka sniper and typically you'll see him in a full proto medium fit with a proto weapon. In this game he was running advanced heavy gear with I think just a basic HMG. He didn't finish the game as high up on the killboard as he normally would but I am sure that he had more fun. Are more players online during events? Probably. CCP, I want more events. It does not matter what they are there just needs to be more.

Are more players online during events? Probably. CCP, I want more events. It does not matter what they are there just needs to be more. As I'm one of the people complaining about the event, let me pitch in here. I like the basic idea of events rewarding people for using a different playstyle, in this case HMG. I played a skirmish today that went right down to the wire - both teams were on their final tick of armour with all points changing hands, and when we won we were down to two or three clones as well. The fight in the city was intense, I was spawning into hopeless situations just to get a couple of kills with HMG and distract the reds from hacking for a few more seconds. I went 40-13, not amazing KDR-wise and very expensive, but it was much, much more enjoyable than the 40+-0 games I've had in a medium suit. The problem is that that is not the usual situation for a game with the HMG. A lot of games you are just stuck waiting for the enemy to come to you. In those situations I want to be able to switch to a different suit and go looking for trouble, but this event penalizes me in SP terms if I do that. If the cap was lower or (as Cmdr Wang has suggested) the SP per kill was higher, that would be less of an issue. TL;DR I agree that events should encourage people to switch up their playstyle. But when the SP cap is very high relative to per kill payout, people are stuck playing only one playstyle for two weeks straight. That's the reverse of what the event should be about - providing a more varied experience.

We also agree that progression tracking is sorely needed and are negotiating with the development team to up the priority to make this feature. From the perspective of a veteran player (whee 6 months!) I'll definitely concur that this feels like a pretty serious grind. If the objective of these events is to encourage more play overall, then objectives that encourage teamwork might work better. e.g. Bonus to squad member who scans the target who is killed by a heavy, or whose teammember/squadmate kills a heavy. Bonus to the Logi who is repping the heavy when doing the kill. Bonus to someone who gets an assist kill on said heavy. Perhaps a bonus to the squad in some way? For the current event you're looking at 200+ matches with ~7-8 kills a match how it is currently over the two week timeframe. And that is assuming I'm just running a heavy, not the style of suit that I typically play ... now ... if there was a 'Community Goal' as part of this event say ...if "The community kills X number of Heavies" and/or "Heavies kill X number of players" then everyone gets (Insert Cool Prize Here). SP is great ... ISK is fine ... but in the end everyone wants to be a winner. At the end of the day, the objective (I would think) is to get more people playing consistently ... and becoming more involved in the game (so they want to bring their friends.) (Much like the Mass Effect Weekend Challenges.) Right now there is very little understanding of how Eve interacts with Dust ... and weekend challenges that allow the community to become more involved with the Eve universe would help push that forward. (e.g. Using the 'Special Contracts' to allow Eve to have more of an effect on Events that are taking place in Dust. If you're looking for an example, refer to the Mass Effect Weekend Challenges from Mass Effect 3.) If a faction is pushing in location X in Eve, a weekend event where Dusties are needed for ground support on that push, or against that push. Instead of just 'Sign in for a faction fight! You'll get lootz!'

Why not just make the kills 1000 / 500 instead of the 500/250. Your already counting the kills and such, and it's not like anything has been rewarded as of yet. No matter what choice you make, people are going to complain about it so why make it where the skilled people make all the SP + ISK when the new people you are encouraging are the ones that need it more just to be able to have fun? At least this way it's more of an even playful where everyone has the opportunity to max out if they play at least a decent amount. Some people have lives outside of gaming and don't have the kind of time that people living in their parent's houses or people that own their own businesses do, etc. (no disrespect to any of them, as I own my own business so I'm speaking in favor of others). I might seem like I'm complaining and want easier points to some people who look for the worse in a post to complain about, but I am getting over 150-300 (10-15 kills per game) kills a day easily, as I try to max out ASAP since I don't know what I will end up doing in the course of the week. I think people often forget that this game is not MANDATORY to be played, as there is no obligation. I can understand people voicing their opinions, but I wish it was done moreso in a professional manner than people whining all the damn time. I mean wow... if this game disgust you THAT much... quit playing it. You can easily UNINSTALL it just as easy as you INSTALLED it. Join the revolution... change the future.

My question is do the people that die in the vehicle count? and if so when I blow up something with people inside and they show as "'randomname' killed by death" or something amazing like that, does the count still kill? I'm not expecting any dropship kills to count though as they're mostly "'randomguy' commited suicide" as he jumps from his burning piece of metal. Thanks in advance...

XxGhazbaranxX The New Age Outlaws WINMATAR. 1075	Posted - 2014.03.04 08:35:00 - [279] - Quote VIDEO!!!! Hello guys, I finished the event yesterday officially. After 2 days of winging it, I decided to start taking notes of my kills and recording most of them. I was going to do a montage of my last 500 kills but only managed to get about 400 on footage. After talking with the peeps I was told that a video with my last 500 kills might be a bit too much so I just made a summary of my event. Overall apart from what is written in the score cards I have about 200 to 300 surplus kills. SCORE CARD: After starting to make the score card it was super sloppy. So I started to make them less sloppy. In all I had to make 3 but, the first and last where only used up till half. Plasma Cannon Advocate

We will post all the info and details about March events early next week once they are finalized, but here are the big changes that you can expect: We will double the SP payout in our next kill event from 500SP per kill to 1000SP and in some cases up to 2000SP so that the grind is much reduced. We will be hosting an event based on community goals so that all DUST players will need to pitch in, but not have to grind. We are glad to see that many of you are enjoying the in-game events in recent months and are serious about taking your feedback and comments on improving them. One thing to keep in mind is that new features will be required to support more sophisticated events and also UI improvements such as a progression tracker and we are really pushing the development team on creating those so that future events will be even more fun to play. So thanks again for your time and efforts and we'll see you on the battlefield again soon!

So thanks again for your time and efforts and we'll see you on the battlefield again soon! Dear Wang, Please consider, separately, my request as stated elsewhere on this forum and in-game with CCP Saberwing, to give us access to aggregate battle-data via CREST in order to allow us to host our own Events, and/or to track Event status outside of DUST514 and your website. This would allow e.g. Corps to host internal Events, for tracking such things as training sessions and goal ("get x kills with MagSec first 2 weeks after the release of it"), without your further involvement, and for 3rd Party Sites to utilize your Events for various means ("List current top-10 for Mauler-event"). Note: This shouldn't, naturally, take away from the effort going towards in-game presentation of Events, as a significant number of players will likely not engage external parties during their gameplay.

So thanks again for your time and efforts and we'll see you on the battlefield again soon! I have been saying since closed beta that I'll try out the HMG "someday". Well this event was "someday" and I'd like to thank you. I've tested on many frames (everything except the commando actually) in the days since I started playing Dust and running an HMG is the most fun I've had as a pure "slayer" role on the field. The structure of the event was a great step up, not only in fun but also in showing a direct response to the input of the community and I'd like to thank the events team for both of those aspects. Also, thank you for posting the info and keeping us in the loop, I know it takes extra time and effort to do so but it's a great asset to players having this kind of engagement from the Dev team Looking forward to the upcoming events and their details. Cheers, Cross SupportSP Rollover & an improved Recruting System

When I started using the forge gun you didn't even have to aim the bloody thing, just shoot near someone and watch 4 of them die, we don't need that back when you can still 1 hit kill people with a well aimed shot.

I really overdid it just in case some weren't measured, which is my fear since the game sometimes mistakes weapon types.

They couldn't run the script for our rewards until after they went to every planet and set the clocks ahead one hour ... or its a Chinese Holiday ... You mean another holiday? Yeah .. that' a thing, isn't it? ... The Chinese take a week off for Daylight Savings ...? nothing to see here ... move along

I logged in today to find a single forge gun waiting for me to assign, about 150k SP, and 7 mil ISK. I killed over 1500 people with an HMG, plus a lot of heavies. I should have maxed out the 750k SP reward. And it seems I was not alone. A lot of people I've talked to are reporting the same issue. I used a 'Templar' Sentinal BPO, and a Republic Heavy Machine Gun for all my HMG kills.

This was a fun event but by my count I got a little short changed. Now I suppose it's possible I wasn't keeping track correctly but then again we have no way to keep track properly. At some point there was talk of a "progression meter" for events. I realize y'all have a lot on your plate but I think this is a necessity.

The weapons I received make no sense whatsoever. CCP, I appreciate the event and the bonuses, but I think your reward script is really screwy.

I'm pretty sure I didn't get that many FG kills and definitely got many 100s more kills with an HMG, enough to hit the 300 cap. I got about 580k SP. I feel like I hit the 750k cap, as my weekly kills for both weeks were over 1,000, and I didn't resort to my sidearm much at all. Without my individual stats, I have no way of knowing.

Reallusion GrimSleeper Need Permission to Die LLC 7	Posted - 2014.03.13 20:32:00 - [329] - Quote I received: SP = 217,000 FG = 1x 'TorchFlare' Kaalakiota Forge Gun (which is cool cause it's not in the Market. ;-p) HMG = 269x 'Steelmine' Boundless Heavy Machine Guns (sounds about right, but could've sworn I capped) ISK = One kill for me was equal in ISK value to me losing 10 or 15 suits with the setup I had, so 1 or 2 kills a game put me in profit regarldess. It would seem that I killed much more than that, as I had some days playing ALL DAY (morning to night and beyond), but I'm not so concerned about it, I got 'something' that I didn't have to get for my participation. BUT... what I AM a bit concerned with is the accuracy of the scripts for future events where I might actually wear REAL suits of value instead of all the militia crap I was running just for the event, lol. The progress tracker really needs to be incorporated before the next event starts to negate all issues, and we can always screenshot the records and have our own log of what we should be getting as well as know how soon we can go back to our normal play style after completing the task, etc. Or maybe even make weekly / daily events that people can participate in. I would like a few more Forgre Guns though considering there was one game where I got like 9 kills in a row within 2 minutes with it. Either way, I'm still going to continue playing so it's whatever.

I managed to record 330 kills with heavy weapons, though I didn't track specific weapons used. In other words, 330 kills done by some form of HMG or forge gun. The forge gun number sounds correct, but I started the event using Republic HMGs before switching over to normal ones. I'm guessing those were the kills that didn't get counted.

With regards to boosters and SP bonus for the Mauler event: The boosters do not give extra SP on the 750K SP from the event. We apologize if there was confusion on this point and we will make the language clearer next time. With regards to not getting the right amount of item rewards: There's been an issue with the heavy weapons list used for the reward script. The LP store weapons were not included, so if you used a LP store only heavy weapon then it was not counted. We will deploy another script next week to include those weapons so you will receive the reward items. Again, we apologize for this and want you to know that we are working on fixing this issue. Thank you for your patience.
