Fortunately we are working out plans for Planetary Conquest 2.0 which has some new mechanics to make location more relevant. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1388504#post1388504 Again, you are making a quote about PC 2.0 while I'm talking about hotfixes to PC 1.0. I think I must have just imagined that meeting with CCP that the CPM had recently where PC 1.0 hotfixes were the specific topic. Isn't that a little bit disingenuous, Kain? After all, the ISK isn't going to disappear, afaik.
So while the implementation of the blue donut is good for PC mechanics in the long run(we hope), any improvements there are being bought at the cost of an ISK imbalance that is ultimately having a negative impact on the other game modes, and will continue to have a negative impact into the forseeable future.
I think, egos/epeen aside, that is the underlying concern of the majority of DUST players who are aware of the issue. If DNS was a class act, it would put the isk aside until it could be put back into the community in a meaningful way, or be destroyed.
Imo the extreme polarization of wealth generated by DNS's donut is yet another opportunity for us to fix game design. When integration with EVE happens DUST's game design must such that it can accomodate huge disparities in wealth without breaking gameplay. That's a tough order for a lobby shooter and is going to take hard work and tears to iron out.
I support SP rollover.

I think you have missed a few thousand years of human history. You did make me lol, thanks for that.
But still, we do remember the rare class acts from history, and they go on on to inspire peeps for millenia.
This is a single shard virtual universe and peeps have a long memory. Classy or trashy, it'll be an interesting legacy/reputation for the peeps who are a part of DNS.
