Anyone think the ISK gains we got yesterday really motivated people to play better and harder since WP were going to net them so much ISK?
I had tons of great games yesterday, tough matches where people going 20/4 weren't even in the top 10. And yet - if you AFK farmed, you'd still just got 1-200,000 ISK. I thought this was intentional at first, and praised CCP. Yes, it was a bit too much, but I thought if it was lowered by a few hundred thousand somehow, it would revive a lot of this game for several reasons:
A) Reaching proto to new players won't feel like a waste just because they can't afford to use it
B) Revives PC as corps can more easily afford the ISK sink it has become. |

I'm a vet, probably longer then most here, and can safely say they aren't having much fun in this game in it's state. PC is care bear land and Pubs are filled with half-ass games. If higher ISK gains for WP motives players to fight harder, they'll appreciate it. |

That said, I've long been a proponent that the risk/reward system in Dust rewards players too much for taking virtually no risk, and payouts for players that actually do something should be increased relative to those that don't contribute as much.
But it sure was nice to have payouts in the 5m isk range. I even pulled out the Gal Logi last night to cash in on the windfall as I strongly suspected it would be fixed this morning.
To this I will say:
BPO being STD and throwing on a proto weapon has made the Risk vs Reward system broke as it is. Especially considering the Sentinel BPO's being able to compete with proto anything, even another proto heavy.
My Templar suit will go for around 10k, and can take anyone one 1v1 with a decent chance at winning. I can summon free LAV's if you want to get distance on me, throw on a cheap scanner. It's not a working system as it stands, and it looks like CCP wants to make the BPO situation worse.
So add in more ISK through effort. 5mil is way too high, but 1.5-2mil is perfect for players going 2500k WP in game. |
