DUST Search - [suggestion] FW event

True Adamance wrote:

I think something like the most recent Sleeper Research event would be good. Something that directly displays a players dedication to a faction and willingness to sacrifice or do service for that faction.

My suggestion is a LP turn in Event. Not something that directly pits one faction against another but instead would indicate to players and CCP the amount of support each faction has from its membership.

During the 2 week course of this event players have the option to turn in their LP to their chosen Factions LP store. This goes into a total tally for eachs FW faction which is updated after the first down tim, then on the subsequent Fridays until the end of the event. During this time players are free to donate their LP.

Each person who donates 1000 -3000 LP will receive a faction pack containing a set number of racial resources at advanced and prototype level. This pack is so that anyone who participates and contributes receives something.

Higher thresholds are then opened up for more generous donations, each pack compounding for a total reward.

Finally an overall reward is then awarded for the following

1.) The Faction that receives the most support gets a special commemorative reward
2.) The highest donating player/corporation from each faction receives a commemorative reward pack.

Lore wise this could even tie into the Sleeper rewards as this is a representation of each Navies armed forces fighting for districts in which research can take place.

Players can only receive rewards for one faction (the highest LP donated) thus making there no point to donate to other factions.

I don't really need the ISK but they haven't had an ISK event while I've been playing and newbs might get into it which is good for the game. Can't really stomach friendly fire griefers, though. Edit: maybe 20% to make it worth it? Wisdom is what you gain after you need it.

How about something akin to a loyalty bonus? Fight a certain number of battles exclusively for a faction and your levels go up 2 tiers. Jump ship during the event and you don't receive as high of a tier increase. Try the new Planetary Conquest Mode!

Not sure what to do for rewards though? maybe award a moderate/large value of standing per goal completed? Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.

Middas Betancore Kirjuun Heiian 66	Posted - 2014.10.14 07:39:00 - [10] - Quote Hmmm something like, get stuff for winning/killing with a single faction Your highest number of victories/kills in a single faction counts as your score Base it over a month, whoever makes the most starmap progress in each war (GvsC--MvsA) Gets a boost to their rewards Caldari wins 9999 districts, Gallente wins 56 So anyone with their score registered as caldari gets double rewards or a higher tier of rewards Same in the other war... So, the objective: Play Fw, get as many kills/wins for the side that u wish to support as u can. All players who take part get something yet there should still be a winner in each war. I think doing it in just wins instead of kills is better, encourages more organisation/teamwork, however it means players could just stomp and stop any more casual players claiming a reward. But if it's based on kills, even if they get stomped they can still get some rewards, but I can see too much foul play if it's based on kills. Maybe two rewards, something small for kills, something better for wins Rewards...Lets have some of the suits from the racial packs, state peacekeeper, fed marines etc, Faction specialist weapons Standings, LP is a bit moot as we will be playing a lot of Fw...I just think isk/sp is a bit lame...faction boosters I'll leave it there for now, hope it helps someone, il follow this and see if I can refine this or another idea Caldari Scout/Sent/Asst/Logi/Cmdo- Closed Beta Player Born, raised and trained under the shadow of Kaalakiota Corp HQ

deezy dabest IMPERIAL SPECIAL FORCES GROUP 1008	Posted - 2014.10.14 09:41:00 - [14] - Quote I think you should do an officer weapon give away for the hardcore FW players once the new weapons are out. Many of us have switched to running factional more than 90% of the time and would like a chance to try them out. Something like 1 of each new officer weapon for every 10 victories with a single faction would be simple and encourage people to squad up and get out there in the FW arena. No matter what the prize I would recommend doing X reward per X number of victories for each faction. To combat guys like us Q-Sync steam rolling all day just set the cap per faction to a point where you can not cap out unless you run at least 2 different factions. Just whatever you do DO NOT make it based on kills or WP. Doing this would send the boosters in with full force and really break the entire game mode while they fluff their way to victory. Also basing on star map progression or district conquering would not work. The current contract generation system gives out FAR too many defense contracts once district ownership reaches a certain point. We figured this out the hard way over on the Amarr side and well, if that was not the case Gal would have probably just gone ahead and shut down the Caldari.
