CCP just needs to take a hard stance on this kind of behavior and start handing out public bans... These players are maliciously trying to cheat the entire game at the expense of a new to DUST player starting with a measly 250k.
Taking advantage of terrible game mechanics is on CCP head for blame... Turbo Controllers, Sprint, Melee, Sprint.. Equipment spam... etc...
But taking advantage of the character creation process and the new player creation process is straight up with malicious intent. |

An easy fix is to not give new players 250,000 ISK. They get cash when they graduate from the battle academy instead. But then they wouldn't be able to experiment with the MLT items whilist inside the Battle Academy. The practical approach, would be to make the 250k ISK non-transferable.
Market credit only... Would be cool. And more then enough of a fix... Would need a separate currency rating probably for that however. |

They won't need the starter ISK if all they have to do to buy militia gear is to grind 2-3 matches in starter suits.
They do need the ISK... For skills... 250k in skills is gone before you even have 1/4 of what you would need... 250k for a new player is really absolutely nothing... And that 250k makes the new player experience that much better...
Really they need a comprehensive new player learning Academy....
Where you have a quest to put down a nanohive and have 2 team mates take ammo from it.
Put down an Uplink and have 2 spawn from it.
Call in a MLT Tank, Dropship, LAV...
And reward players with ISK for completing these tasks...
They actually get to learn a big chunk of the game before leaving the academy.. Which most don't get to experience on beginner level... its MLT AR 514 in the Battle academy and they get out.... And there are tanks everywhere... dropships shooting them.. LAV's running them over...Magical pads spawning 6 red enemies out of it... Can't find ammo.. Kinda sad and funny at the same time. |

But taking advantage of the character creation process and the new player creation process is straight up with malicious intent. This character recycling can only be done because of the way CCP designed the character creation process so why isn't this also on their head? Conversely, why isn't all of this **** on the head of the person who is perpetrating it? I just think it is funny that it is apparently perfectly alright to use Turbo controllers, Sprint/Melee/Sprint etc, though someone who is doing something to create profit for themselves without directly harming anyone else is "malicious intent". Oh, you, double standards, you'll never cease to amaze me. IMHO, Biomass Isk farms and Molden Heath Farmville are no different than one another. Actually, IMHO, MH Farmville is worse if you ask me since they are actively denying portions of the playerbase from participating in their little circlejerk. Anyone can biomass Isk farm without kissing ass or fellating some tin god, the same cannot be said of PC Farmville.
Maybe you missed directly where it says this is against the game rules. It states this clearly.
All those other things where never mentioned or even understood that they where around by CCP until players mentioned.
CCP knew this could happen and clearly wrote down a set of rules about it.
Ignorance isn't an excuse. |
