You must be. Are you trying to kill peoples incentive to play? Who do you think will be earning 5,000 war points a squad? Publics squads made in squad finder?

You just made it even harder for them to compete, not only will they have iffy squads, but they'll all have to preform reasonably well to even get one OB. While the squad of FA and OH will still be dropping roughly 2 a game per squad.

I'm not sure how exactly this will effect FW guys - but i can't imagine the EvE guys, the very very very few who do drop, aren't happy that they'll be dropping with much less frequency. So you've probably just created a larger rift there, but I may be wrong.

3500 WP should of been the new cap, that 1000 WP makes a difference, it might not seem a lot between 6 players, but in PC the frequency you earn WP is decided by the positioning of you versus your enemy - you're not all going to be raking in WP's constantly. You'll notice in most PC score boards most players never pass 2000 WP total, most not even 1000. That means in PC games, where arguably more WP are earned, 5000 WP is unreasonably high, and will make people form special WP farming logi squads to mass drop OB's while they rep and hive everything around them. Why would it be useful to do that now compared to back then when WP's were cheaper? Because 5000 wp makes OB's all the more valuable, they can change a game in PC. You losing those 3 guys meant 1 guy came in and got rid of all your links, pushing you out of that location and into a poor one.

I would really, really love a dev blog explaining the reasoning of 5000 WP being the new cap. I just think it's just your way of saying, "See how little we care?"

So, CCP, what exactly is your reasoning for damaging pub squads and inciting PC players to play even dirtier?

I think you hit the nail on the head, proto squads will be dropping 2 OB's a game instead of 5, this does not hurt newer players.

Where have you been when they were discussing this?

GD runs your Dust 514. Their tears motivate the changes. You gotta start speaking out more.

we have been getting an average of 2 OBs a game now not a big deal.

really? i could get the equivilant of an orbital quite often at 2500WP playing solo.

for your squad not to average 825WP each a game is pretty bad

uhm, yea, that's the point. Thanks for pointing that out, sherlock. Want a cookie now?

I can put down 1000 wp per game without even trying. Thats 20 kills with no hacks, no links, no scans, no vehicle damage, no nanos.... I mean dude if you cant average 1000 per game,, why are you even in Dust?

I have a gun that fires orbital.

CPM privileges 'n all that.

Yea... if you read OP it states proto squads would be earning around that much each, while pub squads get 0 - which is where the problem lays. You're taking content away from the public squads.

Are you guys new to the forums? You're no where near my level. If I wanted to see your whole squad in the red-line I'd put them there hard and enjoy the tears.

I speak for the people who can't do this, who don't have my SP and knowledge of this game, but just want to enjoy this game casually. Now get off your high horse you scrub,.

Lolz youd put me in the redline? ***** please.... Are you new to, Dust? **** the forums. You are ok,, but ive seen you leave matches when you get owned. You might have been good in old Dust, but to me you aint **** in todays Dust. You might have been good back when Eve nerds like Jenza won dust tournaments and that was the level of competition here, noob we are true shooters, from 25 years of fps play, I got 60 mil sp, anything you put on the field ill put down better. Bring that sh11ty sentinel you run so I can make you quit, AGAIN.......

Im in game right now, Sota, msg my main, INFINITE DIVERSITY IDIC. We can 1v1 right now with video capture and have the results up in 15 minutes on youtube.

Oh yay, another scrub on the forums trying to prove his biased opinion has meaning through 1v1's in a team based game.

Am I supposed to accept? Should I go rushing on right now so you can prove yourself? Or, should I not care like I already do? People know I'm good, they don't know you're good, you'll just have to deal with that. :)

SoTa PoP my main - if you ever see me on *LOL* feel free to challenge me again, sure as hell aint logging on so you can let go of your rage of sucking on the forums, lol.

And if you want recordings of me there's tons of them - it's called PC games. There's videos of me rocking house and sucking it up. Good games and bad - because I've been here competing in PC since the first day it dropped and arguably have been in more PC's then most current players.

GOML

Heard it a hundred times, scrub. It has no effect here. Get good enough to get to PC first, then come talk to me.

Your main is banned isnt it?

n-no... >_>;;

Don't give in, its Logibro's alt tryin' to get you to confess!
