"Fact is no one represents my playstyle, i main in vehicles and yes you infantry scrubs will always hate vehicles but frankly i dont want a bunch of infantry scrubs completely ******* up my playstyle which frankly has already happened several times over because you dont use vehicles"
I would humbly suggest you do your research on existing candidates and their play styles before making said assumptions.

Yes. Yes, you really can. I'm quite confident in your ability to demonstrate that actually, it's possible to be a lot worse than CPM0. A response on behalf of CPM1 candidate Takahiro Kashuken - Currently banned at this time Currently that is impossible unless CPM1 is told that the game will be ported to Xbox and be called Space Marines and they keep quiet for the next 10months and let CCP push AUR sales and packs, while the CPM plug the game and say 'fanfest will be great' knowing that it wont be for the playerbase just so they can get a free trip to fanfest The Black Jackal wrote:"Fact is no one represents my playstyle, i main in vehicles and yes you infantry scrubs will always hate vehicles but frankly i dont want a bunch of infantry scrubs completely ******* up my playstyle which frankly has already happened several times over because you dont use vehicles"
I would humbly suggest you do your research on existing candidates and their play styles before making said assumptions. But it is true I checked your post, says nothing about vehicles Does mine? yes I even had a hill named after me in closed beta im that well known for using vehicles while ive always used em and have become a hate figure which all AV players burn on a stake I mean do i really feel that you could represent my playstyle better than me? No frankly so i have to run Its a big possibility that we end up with another CPM which are all infantry and vehicles get alot worse yet again most likely after another vehicle rebalance in Legion You could say that i am the anti 'COD Legion in Space 514 Edition' because i want vehicles to remain and become apart of this game Then again CPM is a popularity contest and im already quite hated apart from the current CPM
Listen to most podcasts I've been on. I've been brought in as a Vehicle driver. A lot of my posts and threads have vehicle references.
I'm also a huge advocate for not balancing AV / Vehicles by numbers alone.
If you'd done you research, you'd know, without a doubt, that I'm a Vehicle user.

Once again your CPM post says nothing about vehicles whatsoever where as mine is the main point of my post since i dont want infantry screwing up vehicles anymore than they already have
But if you want to i will challenge you to a debate
I'm not interested in a debate. What I don't want to see is a candidate so bent on being the bitter vet, who will likely be overlooked due to trying to drip poison on the aspects of DUST that we can salvage for the time being. All that will do is put more pressure on the CPM1 members who want to try help, and further ruin the reputation of any future CPM, whether in DUST or Legion.
You may well have insights that could be valuable to the community, and ANOTHER voice for Vehicles is never a bad thing. However, you need to get off your bitter vet binge, get on the wagon, and show some support for CCP. They are a corporation, yes. They want to make money, yes. But there are a lot of games out there that don't get a second lease on life. They fail, the corporation pulls the plug. End of story. At least CCP is giving it another run.
The absolutely LAST thing CPM1 needs is a candidate who has, for recent posting history, said nothing positive about the game and has done little but attack any decision made by CCP. You don't always know the full story behind everything, and your lack of active research shows that you aren't willing to look into these issues to find answers, but are hell bent on judging everyone involved.
The CPM0 could have no more stopped the decision CCP made than they could stop a Road Train with their bare hands. And though certain CPM0 members are exalted for either leaving, or being 'removed' from the CPM by the community, it only makes anyone trying to work for the game, rather than against it, less able to do so.
I really hope you can pull yourself out of your own rage cycle, and offer us something worthwhile. I'm sure you have it in you.

No debate? how do i expect you to stand up to CCP if and when they bring out some bad ideas or just decide to ignore you altogether like they did the last lot if you cant even debate me?
Its true i am a bittermerc and have a right to be but frankly i would rarther be a bittermerc than a yes man like you and the rest of the 'candidates' because you are all the same, same buzzwords with standard replies, nothing to seperate from each other or the current CPM, more of the same is what we dont need because the 'reputation' of the CPM is already as low as it possibly can be and did nothing but drop through the ******* floor since it began, currently the only reputation it has is a bad reputation
Another voice for vehicles? vehicles never had a voice, we have less vehicles, less skills, less useful skills, less skills with passive bonuses, less modules, less variety, the whole point of vehicles has dissappered and after 2 overhauls its got worse and it is supposed to be a playstyle something that you can main into if you dont want to be infantry
So it seems im the only one who is going to hold CCP/CPM to account for the massive clusterfuck that took place? Thats not a bad thing reminding them what happened and what the outcome was because if someone doesnt whats to stop them from doing it again? The confidence in CPM is already non existant and in CCP isnt much better espc if you are a console player so replacing the current yes man group with another yes man group wont work if you continue to let CCP **** up time and time again because if they dont learn from there mistakes and are told about there mistakes then the same problems will come up time and time again
My corp RS* is basically dead, fanfest killed it stone cold and many have dropped the game and refuse to believe CCP, a few may continue to play it if on PC but many of the main players have stopped altogether and moved on, i only stick around because its okay and 1 of the few games i can play with ppl online but no one i know will put anymore money in this and already regret putting in as much as they did and felt conned because of lines like 'laser focused' doesnt help while pushing AUR packs and boosters on players knowing that its getting canned
CPM0 had no intrest in stopping the road train, they knew by all accounts 8months ago or so, Caz was the only one who decided to take a stand while the rest just waited for tickets to fanfest with the '**** you i got mine attitude, it seems that your currently trying to defend them which makes me think you would do the same thing as they did in the same situation
You keep calling it rage if it makes you happy, its passion for a playstyle that keeps getting put further and further back and without vehicles COD legion in space 514 edition here we come, as well as holding CPM/CCP to account for there actions because if no one else does it who will?
No interest in a debate with you, does not equal can't have a debate. I've been debating for, and against bittervets since before CPM0 was even formed.
Showing support for a company like CCP is not being a yes man. A yes man would have said, well CCP handled the whole Legion affair great! I agree they completely boned the thing, but I also know a bit more about the 'behind the scenes' that went on and assign blame where blame is due. The Development Team had little to do with 'how' the news was diseminated, that was a publicity thing, cooked up by the organisers of Fanfest (targetted at their PC players to illicit a cheer from their primary money maker playerbase), and probably marketting.
Development Team also has nothing to do with AURUM Sales, Bundle Sales, etc. They put the packages together, but marketting determines where, how, and for what things get sold. So when you start 'blaming' people, don't think of CCP as a monolithic single hivemind, because it's not. Each compartment should be held accountable for it's own actions.
List me a games publisher that doesn't have black marks on their record. Or for that matter, a development company. Sure, you may pull out a couple here and there, but most large companies end up having some bad turns. If they were held accountable as you state CCP should be, they may well not have sold another game afterwards. They instead, picked themselves up and redesigned something that brought their customers back.
As also stated, CCP is still committed to the diea. How many 'good concepts' have fallen by the wayside with other game companies due to bad press, or bad reviews, bugs, or even lack of interest. They simply let them drop, shut down any online servers, and rolled out a new game. CCP is giving the FPS genre another crack, on a platform that is both more forgiving, and more capable of giving us the expereince they want to bring to us. Not many other games get a second lease on life like that.
Next up! I state another voice for vehicles as a future reference. I want you to pull your head out of your own arse and present us with something other than bittervet dribble. You're entire post reeks of a simply dislike for CCP, an unwillingness to debate, or even to do your research. All of which are required of CPM Members. CCP wont listen to people who walk in, scream "BUFF TANKS" and walk out.. because you didn't present them anything to justify it, debate with them about other consequences.

On the fact of holding them accountable. That is a full community affair, and the community, and the CPM0, are not letting them forget. The current position caused by CCP can only benefit us if we use it to 'open' discussions... and not yell and scream at CCP. That will only make this window of opportunity close all that much faster. If you want to retain influence, whether as a CPM1 Member, or not, then drop the attitude, come to the table with reason, and willingness to compromise, listen to others, and actually think about other ramifications behind your ideas.
Your corporation died. So did a lot of others. It happens. Corporations and Alliances come and go, even without such things as fan fest. there are also a lot of corporations still going. More power to them. If you walk into this election with the 'DUST is Dead' attitude, the community that you're appealing to (the one's who've left and rage quit) aren't likely to be the voters, or at least not a majority.
Revisiting the point that you are the only one holding them accountable, i think you need to start reading a bit., the forums is overflowing with people calling CCP up on what they did. You are not the only one. But there is more than one way to call someone on something. Some are plain wrong, and some are right. CCP developers ARE people (contrary to popular urban legend) and they will listen to REASON, but like anyone, they generally tend to ignore, or not listen to the asshats who yell and scream at them. No one wants to hear that.
And how do you know CPM0 had no interest in stopping the road train? You applaud Caz for stepping down, putting even more pressure on the remaining members of CPM0. Hurting any future influence the CPM may have because, hey, they can't articulate an argument against what CCP is doing, so they'll leave. That's the impression it gave.
I will call it rage. The thing that outs it as 'rage' over passion... is the continual references in your posts to DUST being 'dead'. And if that is you attitude, then why bother running? To paraphrase, "DUST is dead, so why should any of us bother?"
Takahiro Kashuken wrote:Atiim wrote:Black Jackal didn't mention things pertaining to vehicles simply because its irrelevant to the CPM. They have no power over things involving game development, nor do they have the power to change the game as they see fit. I could understand trolling in General Discussions, but the fact that you've decided to be inflammatory in your own campaign thread makes me question if your serious about running for CPM1. You clearly have no idea on the tasks and responsibility of the CPM, so I would suggest reading the CPM While Paper, and the revised Open Letter Towards CPM1 Candidates; then making the decision of whether or not you want to continue running. A response on behalf of CPM1 candidate Takahiro Kashuken - Currently banned at this time I disagree How can you plan for the future of the game if you don't see what's happening now? If its inflammatory then so what? someone has to hold CPM/CCP actions to account and i don't see anyone else doing it All talk and no actions links there, if that's how it works then its clearly broken because if it was working then I doubt the clusterfuck at fan fest would have happened and we would have heard about a possible look to PC for the game a lot earlier so the ps3 players could have decided to quit there and then and save money by not buying packs I don't think you actually understood what Atiim was saying here. He was merely stating that your own 'play style' and a wish to represent it doesn't matter in a run for CPM.
The CPM has input from a community standpoint. If tanks are broken, their voice is added to that of the community, they take valid suggestions, or ideas, and present them to CCP. Being a Vehicle Driver, doesn't impact on how much you HAVE to do as a member of the CPM, where you also have to speak about infantry, gameplay, mechanics, PC, ISK rewards, risk Vs. rewards and dozens of other topics that relate nothing to Vehicles at all.
Takahiro Kashuken wrote:Patrick57 wrote:I'm very sure that Takahiro has insightful ideas about vehicles and how they could/should work, but I really have to agree with Jackal here. Your posts mostly flame CCP, and that's not something I would be looking for in a candidate.
As I said, I'm 100% sure you have some good ideas, and I wish you the best of luck in running for CPM. I hold CCP to account for there actions, i don't see anyone else doing this and the worst case scenario is that we get another group of yes men in who carry on the status quo and more mistakes and screw ups happen and effect the game further and harms the player base more Luck doesn't play a part, its a popularity contest at best
As stated above, open your eyes and you'll see an entire community holding them accountable. The difference is, the one's who are still here have come to terms with what happened, and are now trying to make the best of it, rather than continuing to rage, slander, and slam CCP for the actions of a few in their ranks.

Another group of 'yes' men, as you put it, the current Candidates are not. Even after being told that we aren't slated for a trip to Iceland, and being told that our input into Legion will be minimal at this time, we are still running. Trips to Iceland, or anywhere else, don't matter a whit. We've each called CCP out on many things. After the FF debacle, I was in contact with CPM0 members who were just as blindsided as the rest of us (due to Rouge's keynote follow-up being cut off).
As a final note. I believe anyone can make a decent candidate, and I want as many candidates on the table for the coming elections as we can, but you need to remove the gripe stick from your arse, get over the bad, and look at the future, because that is where the CPM will be looking.
