Kevall Longstride Dust University Ivy League 2017	Posted - 2014.11.17 19:17:00 - [1] - Quote Hello to one and all, As anyone that has run a corporation in Dust will tell you, the UI for such an undertaking in the game is minimal to say the very least. For a game universe such as New Eden, where corp is king, the omission of such tools has severely hampered the games progress, so far as greater social cohesion is concerned. While not as sexy as a new map or a new weapon, this UI is equally important. The last piece of corp ordinated UI or content was in Uprising 1.5 back in October 2013 when the roles made it to the game, followed a month later by 1.6 bringing us 'Mark as Read' and 'Delete All' a month later. Since then nothing else has joined them. This month 1.9 arrived, bringing with it several new UI changes. It also heralded the increasing possibility of further updates, which could also include more UI changes. As the resident corp UI fanboy on the CPM, I've already spoken to CCP a great deal on this matter but now I want to open it to you good people. I know many of you have expressed to me wishes that you hope the come to pass about this subject but I want to now collate all that in one thread so as to point out to CCP how much support such changes would have. I've already told them what I want in a corp UI but now I want you do so too so we can make the case for more improvements in the games back office so to speak. Thanks for any ideas you can give.

Kevall Longstride Dust University Ivy League 2020	Posted - 2014.11.17 20:48:00 - [2] - Quote The list I've given them is as you'd expect rather extensive. I'll give you some of the highlights and if there are any you'd like to expand on, please do. Corporation Mail Archive Corporation Mailing lists (with subscriptions) User created mail folders All lists sortable by name, date, subject, sent, received etc etc Multiple selection of mails for deletion Chat admin including, muting, kicking blocking by Individual, corp or alliance Granting of titles Granting and creation of permanent medals Automation of welcome mails Corporation wallet overall. With divisions, automatic payment of bills and full transaction history, sortable by time, amount, kind, payee, recipient. Shared corp fittings Ability to fund and store militia & standard grade fits in hangers for newer players to use Corp dividend and Corp Tax cap for players who pay a lot of it One concept I'd like to explore if at all possible is a new Corp Skill Tree, incorporating Corp wide skill bonuses paid for by the generation of a new Corp LP system. Similar to the FW LP system but banked into a separate pool by the actions of a corps members, squading up, donating money to other players, earning ranks and titles. The corp CEO would then be able to spend these Corp LP on a bonused skill tree. For example, a corp wide armour regen skill granting an extra 1% regen to all members per level. Or a salvage skill, enabling a similar increase per level in members loot drop percentage. Increasing the bling in a members quarters.... These are some of the ideas I've already proposed in various emails, essays and Trello boards. CPM 1 member CEO of DUST University Vist dustcpm.com

Kevall Longstride DUST University Ivy League 2024	Posted - 2014.11.18 14:58:00 - [4] - Quote There is actually a lot wrong with the Eve UI, it's just that its still better than Dust's. Quite a lot of it can be safely ditched and isn't needed for a Dust Corp. It's just a matter of finding what to dump. CPM 1 member CEO of DUST University Vist dustcpm.com

Kevall Longstride DUST University Ivy League 2086	Posted - 2014.11.29 19:14:00 - [6] - Quote Breakin Stuff wrote: Would love to contribute but IMHO we need a larger playerbase, and more battlefield upgrades to gameplay itself along with missing content before this should become a priority. Does the corp interface suck? Yes. Will it improve the quality of gameplay for most players? No. I feel we have bigger fish to fry. Perfectly valid point. However........ now how do I put this? If any new content were to arrive in the game that would require that corporations in Dust be able to administrate themelves in the ways that their Eve cousins enjoy now, there would be a need to ask other players what is it they're looking for that the current UI lacks. Given that possibility would it not be best to get feedback on that need at the earliest opportunity? It's not sexy, shiny or as glowing as new weapons might be, but it would be a shame would it not, if new content came with UI not fit for it? CPM 1 member CEO of DUST University Vist dustcpm.com

You'll now see why I started the thread in the first place. CPM 1 member CEO of DUST University Vist dustcpm.com
