I still dont get how the WP limit is a good idea. I joined a match that was almost over killed a Min Commando , hacked a CRU and got killed and game over, no WP gained. I have a booster activated and gained no SP. Boosters are time based and not per match. I believe using boosters with a WP limit is a waste of money

Wp limit is set for vets only. And it's set at 150wp. If veteran can't make 150wp then how has he became a vet?
Ps. You would get less than 600sp for almost ended battle

The problem is being dropped into battle when it's almost over. Please fix CCP

This fix was not needed, AFK farmers tended to be on "dead" servers. |

If CCP can fix match making then this wont be a problem. I was in the match for barely 2 mins and it was over

Nice contribution. How much sp would you like to get for blueberry work.

Started an oms today where on first spawn we were immediately being spawn wrecked. There was no escape. No way to get uplinks out. Lost 40 clones almost instantly. I have yet to not get sp from not getting 150wp but i have definitely had a few games where it was difficult.
The queing into almost over games thing has not been fixed either. I have gone into games where im still on the loading screen and i hear "clone reserves depleted..". Then sit and wait for it to send me back to merc quarters.

all this bull about 'get good' blah blah blah is just that bulls**t. there are times that even if you're on the side doing the stomping you can end up without points because everyone else does all the killing lol i've been in an ambush match and its been over so quick you don't have chance to put anything down.
the wp limit hasn't reduced AFK'in. my alts doign it right now on the asian server as i'm playing on my main. i do think it needs to be removed from ambush matches though. they're so quick and fast paced i've seen games where 11 players wouldn't receive sp.
also the 'Vet Limit' is quite low. a corpmate ran his alt which has 5.6m sp and he's classed as a vet, its quite a low amount tbh theres not much you can achieve with 5.6m sp. a proto suit is bout 3.5m sp from start to finish
Never argue with an idiot. they bring you down to their level and beat you through experience

GǪ In spite of the extensive use of forums and established comm/feedback with the devs in this game, there is still a lot of things that are not explained to us, and we are quickly tempted to draw our own conclusions. In that vein:
--I'm not at all convinced that the "WP-minimum" was created with combatting the AFK players in mind.
--I'm also not convinced that we are defining "Vet Player" the same way CCP is defining "Veteran players". Some may think it's got to do with how many SP you've accumulated. But when you have various alt characters, does it really make sense that CCP would try to base it on this factor?
I'm classified by the mechanic as a Veteran player. My most-used character has about 23 million SP (GǪand I don't think that matters at all). I'd like to think that the "WP-minumum" is extended to discourage "Vets" (giving them just a little slap on the wrist with the teacher's ruler) "Vets" like me from being in a match, and not contributing at all to the team's efforts when by now I should have lots of combat know-how to contribute, and know good and well I SHOULD be getting in there and helping to win each and every match. That IS what CCP has said is the core aim of Dust combat, and very recently the devs are campaigning to drive this core concept into our heads. "You're good at this game if you try to achieve a 'Victory' at the end of every match, and you are willing to replace personal pursuits with pursuits that will help your team".
Newberrys are waived from the WP-minimum because they hardly have the experience to or survival skill to consistently manage 3 simple actions that instantly help your side, (they're too busy learning how not to get shot for the 35th time), and their's no shame in that. But I'm experienced enough to know a half a dozen actions in every match that can help my team, so shame on me if I don't even contribute 3 of them to help.
Even though I'm at the stage where I don't need SP from very match, I think the WP-minimum is an appropriate "shame on you, Celeste!--get in there and help us!"
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

Haha nice post but like I said, it takes almost 5 minutes these days to get into a match and then you enter at the end and cant even earn any SP from your booster. There was a match that I got like 145 or 149 haha. I was experimenting with scanners to see if my team will play better if I scanned all the suits but mot players seem to be playing as snipers after getting killed once

Not true. I still find AFKers on the American server.
Anyways, assuming you're not put into a match that's almost over, all the player has to do is drop a single militia uplink on a good spot and then passively earn the WPs needed.

I was affected by WP limit when I had 2.5 million lifetime SP. I see people say "it's for vets only", but that's not true. 2.5 M makes you a vet? |

That might need to be adjusted. I would say make it at least 7 million SP. That should be enough to max out some core skills and maybe get into a proto suit.

The problem with this solution is that if I "try" during a stomp I am much more likely to get 0 WP then if I run around doing useless things to farm WP.
Because, that's why.

The limit is fine... if Scotty just stopped putting us in matches that are about to end. I know there's changes made but they are still not doing the trick imo.

Thats not my problem. My problem is that boosters are wasted. I personally will not buy any boosters in the future but boosters are time based for every match that you leave you are wasting your boosters
