DNS Black's plan for DUST 514 is complete and utter garbage that could be supplemented with the return of Corp Battles. You think everyone not in DNS is the minority. God I can't believe I'm going to say "we are the 99% and you are the 1% who controls the districts/wealth."

I rep over 2,000 players, believe me, it's not just WTF saying **** you, it's a lot more.

CCP ROUGE, be the messiah that the CPM0 prophesized.

The return of corp battles is not really going to happen anytime soon. And as far as I saw, PFC was a completely garbage system that needed purging anyway.

Don't believe me? Build a time machine, go back about six months, apply to a corp you know will police it, then police it. You'll soon see why I, and many others in DNS wanted PFC gone. It was a load of bureaucratic bull spit. No one on PFC got any better for being there. Heck, when TPF were the last to go down, from what I heard, they sucked royally (no offense). But in the three or four days since they stood their ground, I had heard that they had gotten miles better than any corp on PFC could have hoped for.

Time to get a little RP in here, because I can't resist.

Besides, the armies of our bio-mechanical warriors grows with each passing day, as each of your brothers fall. You will all be assimilated or you will be Deleted.
Delete, delete, delete, delete.

I only played off and on over the last year, but every time someone says "PFC was garbage" I don't ever see any explanation other than "it was a joke." If someone can link me to a thread explaining why PFC was bad I would appreciate it, but that's beside the point. PFC wasn't a complete waste as far as I saw it, it helped some corps get better, at the very least The Phoenix Federation. Having access to the structured matches that are PC battles without having to worry about grinding for ISK 24/7 for them is an invaluable asset to corporations who want to step into competitive waters. Just as in EVE, there is the potential for DUST corps to abuse their positions, in which case you kick off the corps who are purely farming PFC for ISK, which wouldn't be an issue given that they aren't even playing the PCs with more than 1-2 toons. FW queue syncing is a decent alternative to PC matches, but the lack of reliability of who you are fighting and on what map means there is essentially no time to talk strategy for specific maps without having separate corporate meetings since you are just thrust straight into a random map after the black loading screen. I've seen TPF grow in potential over the last few months with their time on PFC and I am disappointed that this infrastructure for developing similar talent is being removed under the guise of "needing" 100% of a regional income to support an -internal- tournament scene idea that is being forced onto the community as a whole. Aside from how poorly this "Dirt Nap League.", whatever it's called, is being sold to us, trying to emulate premade matches by having team members join a specific corp/alliance JUST to participate in a tournament is not helpful, it will fracture the corporations they came from and remove their own internal dialogue just to play "serious mode." This not only fractures communities, but the crisis management will be abysmal WHEN, not if, real life gets in the way of some tournament participants and they need some people from their corp/alliance (that they are no longer technically a part of in game) to fill in the missing slots. We need ACTUAL GAME MECHANICS to foster non-PC corp vs corp battles if you want to keep those corps/alliances intact through the tournament process. As with EVE, this game is not really about the game but who you play with. When you start breaking apart communities in return for game mechanics you start breaking apart the game and whatever future it might have. Edit: I just saw what Kane posted, which is better news than what I had anticipated, but I'm still going to leave this post as is.
