So I never understood that argument.

COD- one of the most successful and beloved FPS series of all time, with millions of fans and large amounts of content

you - "This isn't COD @#$%@#$@"

WTF are you talking about?

here's the conundrum I keep coming back.

if I snipe I will get 20-30 kills a game on average, 200k isk and die once in a blue moon to a red dot with a thale.

if I join a squad and move into the fray i'll get 20-30 kills 150k isk because their will be a logi with uplinks breaking the curve, and die a lot more.


I keep coming back to this conundrum, trying to win costs me a lot more then not trying to win.

I play solo, OP don't you speak on my behave again. I play solo because it is more difficult I don't want to EZ mode in full squads, I get my own orbitals and don't get me started on the NPC Corp numbers.

I've been trying to earn some myself, was wondering how the defend order works, can I throw it on a heavy and rep him or do I have to actively kill while in his vicinity?

We, the solo players of dust, the vast majority of the playerbase, the silent majority, suffer:

1) -20% WP (SP if you don't cap) just because...

2) Placing in half or more finished battles (mostly on the loosing side)

3) death by orbitals, but no orbitals for us

4) Much higher risk/reward

5) Incredibly harder to come by kills (most of the time outnumbered)

6) Way higher stomp ratios

Please CCP make a Solo portion of your game. Look at the numbers of players in your NPC corps (tal-romon for example has 85,000 mercs). We make up the vast majority of your game, we endure impossible odds, we deal having to fight outnumber at all times, we deal with q-synced Nyan San just shitting all over your game.

We also outnumber people in player corporations 100 to 1.

Throw us a bone.

I don't even worry about the order, just kill or rep until you hit 2,500 natively make sure you start a squad before you join the game those.
