I ran a commando suit with DUAL SIDEARMS to guarantee I would cap, still keeping track of each kill. I got my combined total of 406 Commando suits (which is correct) but I only got about 400k of the 750k sp I should have received. I ran my commando suit with Dual sidearms so I can assure you that I wasn't paid out in full.. What is going on?? I feel like you only gave me 1000sp for a sidearm kill with a commando suit, rather than the correct 2000sp (1k for sidearm kill +1k for kill in commando suit) I'm beyond frustrated with this situation and want answers Yep same here. I should have received way more SP for this event. Otherwise I would not have run a caldari commando with just sidearms. edit. I have submitted a ticket.

Really you are going to create an event too "complex" for you to track correctly. You awarded me 306 aur commando suits so you know I got 306 kills with a commando suit. You have awarded others who did not use a commando suit but did use a sidearm to get kills so you are capable of tracking side arm kills. So put the 2 together and voila an accurate SP payout.

Doesn't sound like I am the one who is confused or unsure. As far as I am concerned you get 1000 SP for getting a kill in a commando suit and 1000 SP for getting a kill using a sidearm. I only used a commando suit and a sidearm to get my 300 + kills, bar 2-3 kills, and only received 300K SP approx for the event i.e. I only received 50% of the SP award. This is getting annoying and lessens my opinion and trust in the actions of CCP going into the future.

Well if they do not reply to the email I just sent them (copy below) then I doubt they actually care enough to investigate at all or even show they have learnt anything from previous events. What you will find below is me venting to CCP about how I feel about how I and others have been treated. Dear Sir, Really that's it. 2 copy and paste replies that you sent out to everyone. Did you bother even looking into my specific case? or did you just not bother and just hit the auto reply. The next is not meant to be taken as a threat but an expression of how I feel about your treatment so far. On Eve Online and Dust 514 a favoured expression is that "your actions have consequences". This also applies to CCP and for the following reasons: 1. BPO removal. You were removing the specific skill so removing the BPO was fine. However, it was your approach that affected my future decisions. You could have removed the BPO's early, given the Aur refund, and allowed players the opportunity to use that aurum to purchase other BPO's or not. You could have replaced the BPO's with the nearest new skill alternative. Instead you chose to remove our BPO's at the same time as you removed all the other BPO's from the market only leaving depleatable items for purchase. This action on your part meant that I was unwilling to buy any product with a BPO item in it e.g. your veteran pack or your anniversary pack. 2. Your removal of the merc pack which gave me BPO's and a 30 day active booster and enough aurum to purchase a 30 day passive booster and still have enough to buy other BPO's and replacing it with, in my opinion, a far less value for money alternative. This action has stopped me buying any of your packs or boosters. Once the aurum on my account has been used up that will be it as far as aurum is concerned. This result may have been great in terms of your in game "economy" but has negative consequences for your profit and loss account since I am no longer willing to buy stuff with real money. All that draws me back to your game are the following: 1. One day you may create the game that people see the potential in. However, this is not enough to get me to actively play what is currently a lobby shooter. What does make me an active player is: 2. When you bring in significant new content. This does not happen often and the gap between times is long enough that I stop actively playing. However, what covers the periods between the introduction of new content is: 3. The events you put on. Not all events as I pretty much ignored the heavy event but at least some of them. However, with your actions of actively ignoring players who raise the issue of incorrect rewards, and specifically theirs, and generating cookie cutter answers and not bothering to look at their specific complaint you are basically saying don't bother playing in these slightly more complex events because we can not even track them correctly. I do not understand why you wish to discourage people from playing your game by ignoring legitimate issues. What is SP worth in the real world? Nothing. But to the player who plays the game the SP reward was a reflection of the effort they made and to be told that 50% of the reward you were expecting won't be handed out just reduces the value of future events, my enjoyment, the game and CCP as a whole in my eyes. Just handing out 750K SP to every player, or at least, those who raised a ticket concerning this issue would not have been game breaking but ignoring your player base is. One event or even 2 may not be a big thing but all the actions are cumulative and are having an affect. I hope you do make an effort to solve this problem amicably for all those involved as I believe doing so will have a positive impact on your player base. Regards
