Man, I hate to call a Slippery Slope argument but...

Understand your reservations there but when Rattati explained that these suits could be paid for using LP points, rather than just cash, the CPM were supportive of the idea.

It'll help new players giving them an option for a tougher suit and demonstrate the racial philosophies in warfare. It's also a great way to add excitement to FW as we believe it'll cause a lot of players to try and grind the LP variants of the Apex class.

I wouldn't care if we weren't directly connected to Eve Online via FW and PC. Dust 514 is on a closed-off economy with no player based interaction, so I'm not worried about johnny nobody running around in his riskless investment because it's not exactly harming anything.

On the other hand, a bunch of people running around in Pre-fitted Prototype BPOs in FW making a direct impact on the state of FW in Eve Online bothers the ever living **** out of me.

I know plenty of people who'd be happy to have a "Republic Draugr" Assault or a "Republic Einherjar" Logistics. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.

Sequal Rise Les Desanusseurs 192	Posted - 2014.11.11 11:15:00 - [7] - Quote The LP suits we can buy will be consumable ones right? Take out all forms of scans and you'll see how great Dust can be. Scrubs will cry, good players will love it.

This could be huge for logis who want all their equipment slots in a BPO. Templar Logi is cool and all but only 2 equipment suck. Amarr are the good guys Join "PIE Ground Control" for secure Amarr FW syncing and orbital support

Like +1%HP per level as an example. Third, did I mention this is awesome and will more than likely buy when servers are up? Fourth, a bonus to LP payout while in one of the suits on the right side? wink wink nudge nudge SCAN ATTEMPT PREVENTED EvE - 21 Day Trial

No it's a BPO that you can grind LP for and purchase using that LP. It's named differently so you can show you EARNED it rather than paid for it. CPM 1 member CEO of DUST University Vist dustcpm.com

So if you are wondering what is in the suit before you buy it, check out this Google doc for the, (most likely correct) information. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gM03WwHeQd29u7PuwPJw7ETgkvuD9xYkyrufmdC4QZ8/edit#gid=0 O.G.

Liara Kaiba Shadow Broker Wet Squad 3	Posted - 2014.11.11 12:00:00 - [26] - Quote CCP Rattati wrote: The APEX-Series is perfect for the new players of DUST 514. Except they need to grind 10 millions ISK and 100000 LP to get them. Not sure they will pay any attention to such expensive stuff. I won't talk about the 50000 AUR versions as I don't see any sane new player tossing much money in a game he can't play. If I were a new player, I would stick to free Starter Fit BPOs. Also, as already reported, only five APEX suits are released.

CCP Rattati C C P 11128	Posted - 2014.11.11 12:02:00 - [27] - Quote We are releasing a handful now, one to test the waters (and bugs), so one per faction, two for one for a total of 5. The other ones will be out soon enough. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"

Talk about making a big fuss over nothing. So you are bothered about some standard gear fit bpo proto suits but you were not bothered about the billions upon billions of isk generated in PC farming of old that can keep certain individuals in proto for the rest of the time this game is around? Maybe you were bothered. All I am saying is this wont suddenly change the outcome of anything that has not already happened Aeon.
