Hey guys
With the Rubicon 1.3 release on 2014-03-11 we are aiming to deploy two changes, one to Planetary Conquest and one to Factional Warfare.
Planetary Conquest: Locking a district will now ensure the attacker loses clones and ISK when there is no battle
This means that if no battle takes place, or if a battle is reverted due to it not being completed, the attackers will lose clones as per a normal loss.
Factional Warfare: Adjusted the battle spawning so that factions will need to spend more time defending their districts proportionally to the number of districts they control
What this means is that as a faction controls a higher percentage of districts in the warzone, it will generate more defense contracts for that faction.

So these will come in a hotfix for DUST?
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

can you please remove the "pick all 4" for people who never played FW before, so you have to select the faktions that you want to fight for? one of the big problems for caldari is that we got A LOT of minmatar and also gallente spawning in basic suits

I don't think so, since we usually don't see major Dust and EVE changes on the same day!
I bet on 1-2 more weeks till 1.8 hits...

I guess battle spawning mechanics are not part of Dust. They spawn in Eve, we just connect to them.

Good job CCP.
It only took you 4-5 months since the playerbase warned you about this, but better late than never, I guess.
Now, since you are doing common sense fixes, do you plan on increasing the number of clones in the clone packs, or do you still need another half a year of data? |

Hmm, changes, mmm.
Ok. Great the ball has started rolling again, sort of.
The question is why these particular changes? What arguments do you have to do it that specific way?
Planetary conquest Giving a penalty to people doing the locking mechanic. Ok seems fair. But why just the penalty? How big is the penalty, exactly? Is it big enough to stop making it worth while or will the locker break even?
Factional war More contracts are going to be defensive. Is this a fix for the EVE side? Does one of the factions get such a big disadvantage from attacking contracts constantly being spawned? How does this fix the factional battles being unbalanced and hard to get in on? What does this actually do to the fight? And why have you chosen to implement this particular change? Is there a difference in battles where you are the attacker vs battles where you are the defender?
allround* I'm not saying these changes shouldn't be implemented, but your thought proces isn't very clear. A quick list of questions you might want to answer in your announcements.
What is the context of the problem? What is the problem? Why is it a problem? What are the causes of the problem? How urgent is the problem? What are possible fixes for the problem? Why implement these fixes? How do you implement these fixes?
Now that is just defining the problem and thinking of a fix. Even better would be an approach that includes the current situation, the future situation and the plan to get to the future situation.... Why not share it?

If a match is a no show does the value of the destroyed attacker's clones go to the defender's corp wallet?

I'm curious, if this means that there will be no refund if you stretch the battle over the 40-45 minute mark? Since the battle is still going on and clones are killed, this could still be an issue!? |
