Middas Betancore Kirjuun Heiian 26	Posted - 2014.07.05 18:57:00 - [32] - Quote Obviously payouts need to be greater, however this should reflect player performance, the suggestions made by Mina are a good place to start. This is important as fw needs to be competitive, dont just let ppl run mlt gear and milk more LP with no risk. Giving people a bonus LP related to wp encourages more activity in battle, also since losers get significantly less, it won't just be link spamming job done, pay me! What we will (hopefully) have is two teams going at it full throttle, with the overall adjectives being thus; 1. Claiming victory with minimal loss of fittings(raising profitability and ensuring victory payout) 2.Maximum destruction of enemy fittings to maximize loot and wp (also as a long term act of attrition) 3.maximum accumulation of wp to increase bonus LP ( making the battle more profitable) And so hopefully we end with a bridge between pubs and pc, where mercs are happy to run expensive fits with the goal of a well played match which ends in victory. Resulting in plenty of LP for the Merc who actions result in victory, and hardly any for those who lose (sorry frogs). As an afterthought the faction could give the victorious mercs a small random selection of faction gear.in their loot pile. P.S. Please can dust mercs have access somehow to eve fw milita channels, (unlocked at a standing level..??)

Yes, Caldari dont really like Amarr either, but Cal/Amarr are still considered to be allies. The Gallente/Minmatar are allies, but we really arent supposed to hate each other the the Cal/Amarr do.

True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 11643	Posted - 2014.07.06 06:34:00 - [34] - Quote Okay this is my kind of discussion. For those who don't know I have been an avid Factional Warfare player for a very long time and have more recently also taken to EVE as well to fight further for my chosen Faction. Now while I understand this is a discussion purely about what can be done to improve the state of Factional Warfare in Dust with minimalistic changes I have to make one of two comments about perhaps the way things are in EVE, or how they feel in EVE. With this being said I am all for making Factional Warfare a more viable and enticing game mode. Prior inception of Dust side Loyalty points PIE Inc ground forces would regularly see themselves involved in long sessions of pretty bitter fighting against a number of enemy Loyalist corporations. However since the introduction of LP those groups have all but left the mode for PC and or choose public matches over FW ques. This is also partially due to the mode not feeling rewarding. FW as a Rewarding Gamemode To make FW more populated players need to feel like their efforts are rewarded and currently it does not feel like the efforts put into FW are ever truly worth it for the average player, beyond the modes semi organised and semi competitive state. Most players don't truly get to understand their effects of FW, or even what their battles mean for pilots, so while it makes it a primary effort for group like PIE Inc to fight and win their ground battles as well as provide orbital support......it doesn't mean much to other groups. On a regular basis I might commit several HAV and dropsuits. Proto Commando- 200K+ ISK HAV- 500K+ ISK My payout for this game mode is 500LP...... that would buy me 4 + the ISK required Imperial Complex Armour Plates. I use almost 2 per suit. That is not an equal reward for the efforts I and many others put in for their chosen faction. How to Fix the Issue and Possible Concerns To fix the issue the rewards must make players feel like their contributions are worth while, their action are significant, and the rewards they can draw from the battle are worth queuing for. Introducing ISK as a reward will not do this. I feel it will either -Not be enough to entice players into FW -Or be too much and make Public Matches redundant. Neither will aid the game mode at all since no value means no players, and too much value means farmers and AFKers. I would suggest simply increasing the LP pay outs to start with. Find a niche that makes FW worth playing. If 500 isn't enough perhaps you could double the rewards to 1000 LP for the winner and 200 LP for the loosing side (a fair number for the kills they secure in the name of their faction). With boosters that makes 1250 LP for a win and 250 LP for a loss. This means with ISK I can now buy 10 Imperial Complex Armour Plates for that LP cost + ISK. Please feel free to discuss and or critique these values ( I typically am not one for numbers ). Beyond FW and Significance of FW One thing that will draw players into FW is a feeling of significance. Not every corporation can be a part of Planetary Conquest and not all of them are content with being relegated to instanced and unimportant battlefields. In order for players to feel a part of Factional Warfare and to experience the significance of their actions I would suggest that a number of thing be looked at either for future development (unlikely as that is) or for integration in Legion. The first is related FW statistics and Overlay The Overlay would indicate which faction owns the system and reflect the system wide level of contestation as determined by EVE players Plexing efforts as well as when a system is vulnerable or stable, this being something I do not feel is adequately reflected. Additionally the system and district wide contestation values would then be represented below that. In regards to the statistics I feel like players should have access to more information regarding the FW system. Statistics that indicate how we have affected the overall meta game from aiding in deplexing systems to making them vulnerable, not just this but also over all WP gains form the militia's, individual corporations, players, etc. Battles won and Lost, efficiency ratings. Implementation of the Tier System as a LP Modifier In EVE LP gains from plexing are divided in twain. Offensive Plexing- More Risk, in enemy held system, higher pay out. Defensive Plexing- (Arguably) easier, in a friendly system, less pay out. I suggest that when players fight in future or are given the opportunity to engage in an offensive contract they are rewarded more for it, being more aggressive, and trying to win back lost ground. While at the same time defensive plexing results in less LP as a whole but ensures the system is keep stable. Additionally the tier systems in my opinion is a wonderful thing. It allows factions to fortify themselves in systems and garner bonuses by having something to spend their WP on. resulting in what can only be considered an investment both financially and personally in the success of the Militia as a whole. Militia as a Community I personally love the idea of a sign on Miltia. While I suppose its a little restricting the Miltia is a Community, they are your allies and they are people as dedicated to the friendly militia's success. Reinforce the idea Militia as a community a microcosm of the player base with a unified cause and purpose. Let Militia's talk shop about how they plex, when they plex, which system are most important, etc, etc. These are just a number of discussions and suggestions..... and I am always interested in discussion FW and its advancement. *"I watched you.

I will be hones with you, as much as a higher payout n FW would help (more LP and possibly some isk too?) fr me personally is the rare / 'upgraded' weapons and equipment that draws me in t FW. Personally Iove the Minmatar proto rep tool in the FW market. The one that reps at 90 instead of the regular 70 of proto) wit dual channels. Its the best repper in my opinion. Yes it reps a little less than the core focused but it has 2 channels and has much better range. I propose more 'slightly better than proto' bits of equipment and weaponry in the FW store.

I'd also suggest that you don't make payouts linear per level, meaning that as you gain standings it's not just another +X increment in LP payout. Having high standing with one of the factions should be rewarded exponentially to encourage loyalty. Amarr are the good guys Their way of the Commando seems right and noble
Middas Betancore Kirjuun Heiian 27	Posted - 2014.07.06 15:23:00 - [39] - Quote This is all great, we need to work together to try and draw up then hone a numerical framework of what we would like to see from an LP payout hotfix. Then we can have a tangible point to debate. We all know we want more, lets put it into numbers and discuss, hopefully we can reach a feasible solution and get this in the game quick sticks. 1. Altered LP payout scale 2. Bonus LP to reflect performance of players,(not just winners if u fight hard, you should be recognised, even if losers get less), I put forth mina longstrike's suggestion of wp=+%LP 3.I like the standings system, I don't think it needs a tweek, but perhaps a victory for caldari means a small standing increase for ammar to encourage more allied fw action Let's get number crunching, stay focused purely on the LP/standings/loot system Work together share your thoughts and let's get this fixed For the glory of The State and Her Allies P.s.

True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 11655	Posted - 2014.07.06 20:57:00 - [40] - Quote An increase to LP pay outs will help...... But as several people as said above LP means nothing to players if there is nothing of worth to buy. So giving players something different stat wise or visually might be a successful way to encourage more people to join. However another issue arises when one Factions loyalty store is simply better than its counter part so I would say fleshing them out as much will their appropriate content is a must. *"I watched you.

Middas Betancore Kirjuun Heiian 27	Posted - 2014.07.06 21:10:00 - [41] - Quote I agree whole heartedly, a more fleshed out store would help fuel interest, that part of the equation is relatively simple. First I would like to focus on payout structure. Maybe a separate thread can be made on adding items to the store that are already in the market and specialist items can be proposed and balance debated.

True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 11656	Posted - 2014.07.06 22:17:00 - [42] - Quote I personally have 80,000LP. All of that was saved for the express purpose of LP Amarr HAV. This won't occur within Dust 514 ever....... thus I should have no incentive to fight for the Amarr as I am throwing materials at something that gives me no reward. I do however fight out of a sense of loyalty to the Amarr....... but all in all I am throwing my ISK, somehow remaining ISK stable, at a gamemode that provides me with absolutely no reward. If a Khanid Tank (alt colour Caldari hull HAV with a focus on Armour) were implemented I'd have a reason to spend my LP. Another huge issue I see is the inherent imbalance between Caldari/Gallente Warzone and the Amarr/Minmatar. Vehicles users are almost actively punished for using vehicles in the latter warzone as there is no way to recoup the losses in the LP stores.....nor will there be. *"I watched you.

Seymour KrelbornX Holdfast Syndicate Amarr Empire 366	Posted - 2014.07.07 14:56:00 - [43] - Quote I know it's been said already but I will add my voice... fw needs an isk payout along wth lp. now if we had a player market to sell salvage and lp gear this would be less of an issue, but we are not getting a market, so without an isk payout there is no incentive to play fw. the alternative to isk would be lp items ONLY costing lp without isk, but we would still need higher lp payouts.

This might be beyond what can be done in a hotfix, but I'd like to see a Loyalty Point bonus for actually using dropsuits of the side you are fighting for. The game currently tracks your most used dropsuit for each battle and reports this to the player with the rest of the stats. Could this already collected data be used to give a small LP boost if, for example, a merc fighting for Gal has a Gal suit equipped for most of the battle? Currently FW has us facing a random spread of fits just like in Pub matches... which takes away any real feeling of it being, well, factional. This would also give more meaningful weapon choice since if you are entering a battle vs the Cal, you're more likely to encounter Cal dropsuits and can thus fit weapons with bonus damage vs shields.

With the ISK rewards you can buy between 05.91-33.76 full fits of the STD ISK fitting. With the ISK rewards you can buy between 00.45-02.57 full fits of the PRO ISK fitting. LP rewards of FW contracts on average range from 326-659 LP depending on your standing. This is based on these numbers released by CCP. With the LP rewards you can buy between 01.63-03.30 full fits (depending on standing) of the PRO LP fitting. With the LP rewards you can buy between 00.41-00.82 full fits (depending on standing) of the PRO LP fitting. See any problem with that? ISK rewards let you buy 6-33 standard fits, or 1/2-2 prototype. LP rewards even for a victory with level 10 standing can only buy you 3 equivalent standard, or less than 1 equivalent prototype fits. The very best FW rewards are still awful compared to the very worst public Skirmish reward. LP rewards comparatively suck for buying low tier stuff, and sucks for buying high tier stuff as well. No player market will eve be coming for Dust, so the whole "you will be able to profit from FW by selling LP items" argument is completely dead. Even if you could sell LP items you bought, items bought with a level 10 standing victory LP reward would have to be priced around 6 that of ISK-bought equivalents just to match the rewards of an average Skirmish (I covered why 6x it in the original thread I linked). [Solution] FW is high risk: practically no pay for losses, no standings gain for losses, and friendly fire. High risk should come with high reward. If a loss is worth close to nothing, a victory should be almost equivalent to twice the average Skirmish payout. This could be done by A) Increase both victory and defeat LP rewards by 5x. This would mean that a victory with 0 standing to buy 8 STD fits (for comparison, ISK rewards buy 6-33 STD fits), this would make it at least better than AFK farming in a public Skirmish. With a level 10 standings victory, you could buy around 4 PRO fits (for comparison, ISK rewards buy over 2 PRO fits). B) add the same (or reduced) public battle ISK rewards to FW in addition to LP rewards. Why should high risk come with lower rewards? [Somewhat related] LP store is lacking a ton of stuff: Caldari scout, Cal sentinel, Cal commando, magsec, bolt pistol. Minmatar scout, Min sentinel, Min commando, standard and advanced combat rifles. Gallente sentinel, Gal commando, ion pistol. Amarr scout. Some weapons have both a PRO specialist and less expensive non-specialist variants (SCR), while others only have the expensive specialist variant as an option (AR); all PRO LP weapons should have both a specialist and a non-specialist version. Imperial commando AK.0 still has a sidearm in addition to the 2 light weapon slots. No other prototype LP suit has this extra advantage over regular ISK proto, so I assume this is unintentional. Thank you for reading. On point as usual, +1 Risk vs Reward is key to game wide balance, maintaining this within payouts then, is all the more vital as disparities here can more readily have a ripple effect into other aspects of the game. 0.02 ISK Cross Vote Cross Atu for CPM1- An emergent candidate

The original poster forgot to account for something that "might" happen later on down the road to make this small amount of LP reward worth 10 times or more than it is now. If the game stays as it is now without any sort of open market for players to buy/sell/trade items (to include the FW variants of the items), then yes I would agree that the current FW payouts are a joke. However IF we open up a player driven open market where the only source for FW equipment is from LP payouts in FW matches... Then the value of LPs will become 10 times or more what they are now. So please be very VERY careful of changing the FW payout now if you only intend to later implement an open market also. You could end up killing the market before it ever opens.

Hmmm you make a fair point. I think the current exchange of LP for ISK is something like 1000 ISK to 1 24th Imperial Crusade LP.

AFKing has nothing to do with LP payouts. Combating AFKing is its own issue......
