I wonder what CCP would do if we organized a concerted "Nobody play this week" week and they actually saw their player numbers dive into the shitter?

OMFG, the Dust numbers are down to 27 players, and that was the daily high.

I guess we done ****** up.

If your going to stage such an event , it should be about the bugs and content issues also matchmaking and incomplete stats on suits among other things .

Not because they want you to play and buy things , this isn't a problem any other time so why now ?

Why are players talking about A.V. imbalance ..??.. when I see PM's , RE's , Swarms and FG's in the kill feed every game that I play and numerous times during the game , unless there are no vehicles .

Just play and get your SP's or don't play but if your going to stand for something , I hope it has some substance and is worth it .

I'm still playing , seeing as how we didn't get a full infantry refund and I have needs .

For every infantry kill we are getting 5.000 ISK and 50SP. The reward cap is set at 10million ISK and 500.000 SP. So in order to achieve the bonus SP cap from this event you need to get 10.000 kills within 7 days. This is way over the top even for the addicted basement kids. In my opinion it should be 500SP per kill not 50SP to make this actually achievable for the normal players (1.000 kills instead of 10.000). Oh yeah forgot the best part about this event is when you use a "origin AUR suit" then the rewards per kill is doubled (still same cap). source: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=157867 Head of public relations from The Rainbow Effect.

We complained about the 250WP per kill with heavy being too grindy 2. CCP listened (!) and made the next event (sidearm) 500WP per kill. A new dawn in player-developer relations? 3. Lolno.

So if you can get lots of WP's you shouldn't have a problem getting the bonus SP. There's two kinds of bonus SP- they're doubling the cap (around 400k SP), and doing a separate SP event for 500k like the commando/sidearm event but with 1/10th of the SP gain per kill.

Even with aurum suits you'd be looking at 5000 kills... and god knows how many aurum suits you'd lose.... Hmm... well, let's try to figure it out. 40 suits per pack, 20 Assault C-1 and 20 Logistics M-1. Assuming you're decently good at the game and cherry-pick your matches pretty hard (i.e. leaving whenever you see an organized enemy squad), let's say you can put up a consistent 3.0 K/D, since you're in STD gear using whatever shitfit CCP came up with. 5000 kills / 3.0 K/D = 1,667 deaths (rounded up). 1667 deaths / 40 suits/pack = 42 packs (rounded up). 42 packs * $4.99 per pack = $209.58 On a scale from 1 to nope... noooooooope. Not doing that. Bad event is bad. Transparently milking us for all we're worth. If you want SP, you're infinitely better off spending your money on passive/active boosters. Nerdier than thou
