Serious question - at 20m SP and loving life/death in DUST, what are the best reasons for playing the other modes?
Factional Warfare... Planetary Conquest... Should I even bother?
Am I a scrub? A try hard? A noob/desperado/gg/qq etc etc....
GÇ£All that I know most surely about morality and obligations I owe to football.GÇ¥

Thanks for the link. Fascinating chart. I didn't even know these massive corps had alliances. That's actually pretty scary looking...

PC is tough to get into. Many players don't like the idea of having to stick with a role or stay in a spot based upon the strategy being used for that battle. They also don't like waiting around before the battles only to not be selected for the match. They also don't like being asked to skill into areas in order to be utilized more often. They HATE it when they are told that certain things just simply are not viable in the PC setting. But fighting in PC is in my opinion the most rewarding thing in Dust. At the same time it is by far the most discouraging thing, although much less the case now that passive ISK has been removed.
Thank you for the info. So if I am not a member of one of the big corps - am I still going to be able to get into PC? It's a corporation thing only?

Soraya Xel wrote:The biggest thing is that FacWar and PC have a more direct effect on the game. FacWar affects FacWar in EVE, and you'll see real EVE pilots providing orbital strikes. You queue for a particular faction you support, so there's a lore aspect too. PC has really no meaning for EVE, but is the high tier ability to "own" land in DUST.
I think there's a lot more we can do to make FacWar appealing to players.
The lack of isk puts me off it I think. I remember trying it a while back and being into the idea of factional weapons - but I lost too much isk and found myself reluctant to go back.

PC is just a mode for people to suck their own dicks in but I'll be damned if they aren't good at it. Seriously though, the only reason to play it is for bragging rights. Awwww, point to the area on the doll where PC touched you. Someone is a little sensitive. You can't tell me the only point of PC now isn't to be able to brag about one's corp having districts or otherwise kicking some corp's **** in during a PC match.
It would be interesting if small corps could make a big difference with ninja-ish scouty tactics or something like that.
Definitely I would like to see a way that those not in big corporations can get involved in the different game modes..
