I'm sad. I have Elite packages on all 3 characters on my account. I'm really starting to regret having my alts on 1 account. I really wanted that BPO on my alts as well as my main, and I put in a dozen wins on each of my characters.
I've dedicated a lot of time and money to my 3 characters, and this time I have been denied the prize for my 2 alts.

That is your own fault really.
It is how the system works, if it requires more SP then it will take more SP.
Why did you get it to 5 anyways before echo?
EDIT: Also i bet it was 1 BPO per PSN account.

I feel tricked... I want those rewards on my alt aswell.
The problem is the way we receive them. It's not through the server like the SP rewards from previous MCC's, it's through an item redeem system that only allows you to apply the rewards to one character on one PSN account.

Well duh, this game favors multiple accounts instead of multiple characters on the same account, ever since passive SP went to a single character per account. Not sure why CCP wants to incentivise account spam, but there it is.
Not even sure why CCP gives you three character slots if they are going to make it plainly better to use multiple accounts. |

I am rather disappointed as well i played on my main and my 2 alts because i read on the 5mcc official page that an active character was described as "any character that wins 3 matches within the event time." I'm paraphrasing that. I remember checking the page yesterday and saw that it said it and when i checked it today it now has the added words "account that has had a character win 3 battles." it does feel like we were tricked or mislead. I do like the rewards and I'm not complaining about them. I just hope they fix the bug with the new damage mod BPO, and hopefully explain about the wording swap on this page.

I was worried they were going to refund the tree so I'd have to rebuy it; being 800k SP in the hole was exactly the outcome I was hoping for.
Means I can have my cake and eat it.

CCP does not support alts (characters) despite natively supporting the option to create three characters and showing that option every time you log on the account.
They do, however, *support making multiple accounts to circumvent their blatant lack of support for alt characters.
*blah blah, actions speak louder than words, blah.
I do hope they change their attitude.

Hey guys.
The event did state in two places that rewards for this will be account-wide. All you had to do was to win 3 battles on any character and then assign rewards to the character of your choice.

This is what makes the ninja edit feel dishonest. I could sense a "hey it said this all along" was coming, makes me wish I took a picture of the original wording.
I didnt get screwed over as bad as ppl that have 3 different players on one account(stay-at-home parents who share their game w/ their kids) but everyone who earned the rewards should have gotten them since its what the event page originally stated. Besides which, even "any character on that account that plays and wins at least 3 matches during the event period" sounds like its by character and not by player I fear the way this has been handled will leave a bad taste in ppls mouths, but overall cool event, cool rewards, sad we couldn't get ppl involved enough to make the original deadline. I had confidence we could do it and we underperformed

Why does it state that, though?
I (or any other player) can create a multiple PSN accounts and receive the BPO/components/keys for as many PSN accounts as we able to ebe created.
In fact, many here have done just that considering that your game ACTIVELY DISCORAGES creating multiple characters on a single account. [See: this event; Passive SP]
Why do you not support alternate characters? Why would giving the rewards to multiple characters per active event character be bad, considering the proliferation of alternant PSN/DUST accounts?
Why does it state that?

Sure, alts would benefit from it too, but I for example don't own any alts so whatevs. People that own them and actively spend money on ALL of them would probably love it, but hey - this way it makes it even more of an exclusive item to my eyes.
Thanks for the great reward anyway - Frame!

to CPP frame: I thought this might be relevant to see where possible misinterpretations came from. (I apologize I wasn't able to find this forum earlier to post this portion here first. guess my search did not bring the thread up. and if posting it here for ease of reading is incorrect please then remove or let me know to remove (though I did check the forum rules to verify so I believe its ok).
Anyway below is the portion that applies to my misinterpretation of the rewards to alts
Blade Vulu wrote:1)Regarding the rewards: I will be honest and I guess I had assumed or misinterpret the details of the challenge. I was under the impression that each character would get the rewards (or at least the a copy of a bpo for themselves). My misinterpretation came from the bottom portion of the challenge, under the " A few notes and conditions:"
Quote: GÇó Active accounts for this event are defined as any character on that account that plays and wins at least 3 matches during the event period.
in relation to the above portion
Quote: During the March 4 11:00 UTC - March 11 11:00 UTC period, should the total number of clones destroyed in New Eden reach 5.000.000, every account that won at least three battles during the event period, shall receive the following items on March 12, 11:00 UTC:
To me, I read this that each character under the main account would be understood as a separate account (seeing that the nature of each character under the player's account is separated and that none could trade or communicate between them and in itself a new character in the dust universe) . -So in ending I was hoping for each character would have been rewarded separately and had the rewards directly seeded into each character's separate inventory. [personally the way I understood it and with the rewards given as the way I mention above would been a great way to promote creating and playing more character in your main account beside the prime character (which in this phrasing will refer to the only character that will receive passive sp) and testing different skill progress or alternate set ups (due to the nature that each character gains their own separate sp, isk, etc.] + possible suggestion for future events: my possible suggestion for future events and rewards is to possibly set up a system to be able to supply the rewards for events into each character directly instead of the main overall account. This way people could, and possible will play each character under the main overall account. This also help avoid any worries about giving multiple rewards to one account to give to each character as they please and the possibility of giving way too much items/power to one character. (I'm unsure if this may prove very difficult but I believe its possible with the awesome things you did including the daily missions [which do run on only a character to character basis since each character has their own daily missions])
Anyways thank you in advance for the announcements in the future about if it is per character or account wide for future events. Also thanks for the fun event I loved it. |

Who cares if hes guilty or not? CCP's policies push people right into this behavior and its the well known reality that people have a ton of psn accounts if they want to have alts. And here I am using the system as intended with one alt on this same account, and Im getting screwed out of passive XP and items for that alt.
Maybe this thread would serve as a good starter to a discussion about making it less onerous to actually use alt character slots on the same account, so that people can actually use them without feeling like the game is screwing them over while their friends rake in BPOs, newsletter rewards, passive SP, and whatever other one per account event/whatever rewards we ever see in the future.

I think because a lot of the recent events have been rewarded through the daily missions people have gotten used to it being on a per character basis, that and the last mcc was per character, rather than the old style per account

I checked the Dust sub on reddit and it has the original wording that may have suggested that it would be for each character

I will state that the 1 per account when we have 3 characters is pretty silly. Reason being is that PSN accounts are free. From the start CCP has encouraged playing 1 character per account and the method of limiting it to one is just really an inconvenience more than anything. If you want multiple? own multiple PSNs. Several of your past CPMs and most likely your current ones own a couple PSN accounts for this reason.

I will say that if that was the original wording then my interpretation would have been correct. (though I always like to have proof and decided to go back to event page;Which I did not know they actually changed any text).
Thank you for letting us know about the original text. I guess I will have to chalk this up to miscommunications and misinterpretations.

Link Thank you. I was pretty sure it originally said "each character" but I didn't reread everything. Everything is remembered on the internet. Th why I called ninja edit. Because there was a ninja edit. Rattata said he'd talk to frame about it and frame came back and apologized. I really feel for ya bc I run alts on the same psn account but we won't be getting our rewards it seems. Please dont take ut personally, no harm was meant by it. Honestly, we didn't even make the deadline so we all should be grateful we even got 1 set of rewards per account

I mean, if you use that recruiter link it gives you bpo's.
I mean just get into battle and jump around so I can shoot you.
With my new Brutor commando M -1 bpo. Pairs nicely with my old quafe combat rifle muhahahahah So.... You use the recruiter link to farm BPOs with alts that you play? I let friends set up accounts on my system and then invite them over/drag them over/pay them/give them free drinks to come play. Which effectively means that my recruits only play when there's a party at Greivs house. But at least its better than reward farming alts for BPOs. Whiiiich is a bannable offense as stated in the recruiter page. You wanna rethink that admission of guilt? Who cares if hes guilty or not? CCP's policies push people right into this behavior and its the well known reality that people have a ton of psn accounts if they want to have alts. And here I am using the system as intended with one alt on this same account, and Im getting screwed out of passive XP and items for that alt. Maybe this thread would serve as a good starter to a discussion about making it less onerous to actually use alt character slots on the same account, so that people can actually use them without feeling like the game is screwing them over while their friends rake in BPOs, newsletter rewards, passive SP, and whatever other one per account event/whatever rewards we ever see in the future. I care because I not only run alts on one account I also participate in the recruiter program and it has always been clearly stated that reward farming the program is an exploit and a bannable offense. Its one thing to have multiple accounts in separate PSNs, unfortunately CCP really does push players in that direction. Its another to do something that's clearly stated as an exploit and then come brag about it. I agree this should become a platform from which to discuss why legitimate alts are punished and 1 per PSN alts are rewarded. This system is backwards.
I don't want to take this in the wrong direction and wind up with accounts tracked by IP address or something equally crazy because 1) my partner won't play dust on her own ps3 bc she's seen dust destroy a couple of mine and laughs that I keep buying new ps3s to play it on even including the charron(I named my last ps3 that bc its a dust dedicated ps3 and came with the guristas saga code. Which didn't even work) and I can't get her to play dust on any ps3 except the charron. Also, my recruits never have had enough interest in the game to spend a day downloading it partly bc its all protostomp and no pve. So any time my recruits play, it comes from my IP address and I wouldn't want to be accused of cheating.
That said, without going to an extreme and banning people for encouraging new players to try out the game, what can we do to encourage people that use alts in the intended way and discourage using multiple PSN accounts? It seems to me the best solution is something that rewards people who run alts for doing so on a single psn account, as that would give people less reason to feel they need to use multiple PSNs.
All of that said, I think people who come out bragging that they cheat and exploit the game in ways that are stated by CCP as ban fodder should get banned. Or else CCP is a toothless dragon making threats they won't keep. As it stands, the situation is that someone here made the claim that they use an exploit to farm rewards and made fun of people like you and I who use alts in the intended way. And a number of people chimed in to agree. I feel like that is a problem that should be addressed

Yeah, I'm glad they sort of gave away the reward, and I'm not too worried about my alts either because they are both min logi-commando anyway.
I just thought it would be nice if my alts were not treated like second-class New Edeners.

My alt development came from the old SP cap. I would cap out my main and then start capping my alts. After a while I'd decide that a few blueprints would be nice, and the AUR was used mostly for my main, so it has worked out fine. I have so far purchased 7 Dren sets, with 5 copies on Luk. Many of the SP events were a huge boon for N1GHTMAR3S and Lucia Manag, and the BPOs have always been useful for farming ISK. I didn't want to train up sidearms for them anyway.
The new damage mod is a huge boon for the Assault class, and I love it so much that I'm strongly considering another Elite pack so I can buy some of those Passive Omega Boosters.

My alts have logi/commando skills, and I was considering the assault suits next, but I don't think I will because they will never have a damage mod with both weapons buffed.

Yep BS I was wondering why I got shafted. My alt got the prize not even my main. And it was everything I could do to win 6 games because this game is so broken for me I have about a 90% disconnection rate.
It's really stupid you can't utilize your character slots and have to make a new psn account to have an alt that's worth anything. I've wasted so much time with 2 slots filled. Why even have 3slots for characters if they are so worthless.
So disappointed |
