Hi. Im just curios to know what people would like to have as an event. There are two things I would love to have.
1. A vehicle event. If you kill someone being inside a tank or a dropship, you get +1000 sp, for each kill. LAVs count too. No road kill allowed, in other words, only killing with turrets. Now, this might sound way too easy, specially fot those guys who are really good with tanks or dropships, so, for the infantry, for every vehicle they destroy, they get +2500 sp. Too easy? Perhaps, but would be nice to see the great tankers and pilots versus the good AV players.
2. I think there was something similar to this. An event where people can choose sides; choose one, you get certain quantity of a special suit to fight (a good, almost OP suit, pre-fitted). (And maybe there should be a limit to this first side) The reward they get is similar to first event idea; for every kill the get using the special suit, +1000 sp, and for every five kill with the suit, they get an extra suit of this kind at the end of the event. The other side, that didnt choose the special suit, they get to hunt this special suit, and for every kill AND terminate of this suit they get +3000 sp and one of this special suits at the end of the event. Why +3000 sp and a suit for each kill and not +1000 and a suit for every five kills? Because, in theory, should be easy to get more kills with the suit.
Now, this are simple, raw ideas, but I think you do get the point. Is there anything you have in mind that you would love to have? It doesnt have to be something too elaborated, nor "real". I just would like to know what the people would like to see. |

In an average match with my Rail maddie, I already net about three HAV kills and a dozen infantry kills, this would give me an extra 19500 SP per match, with my 3 active boosters this means in addition to the 25000-ish SP I get, I'll also be netting an additional 48,750 SP so 74,750 Sp a match, so in a week-end of ten matches I'd see 747,500 SP on average, three days of that for thirty matches and I'd get 224,2500 SP, or 897000 SP without boosters.
Actually this would be higher since of those dozen infantry kills that usually includes a derpship and 2-4 LAV kills, especially since I combo my HAV with either an IAFG or a crapload of Proxies with a swarm amarr logi suit.
Wouldn't be a bad idea I guess for Sp rewards when we compare what previous events gave us (A bonus million SP base value), hmm...
My only concern is that this alienates those players who don't have a large amount of AV and are not skilled in vehicles (that can kill), though a player without AV is a bit o a dullard.... Then again we have militia HAVs, though those can get expensive fast.

To be honest those events are geared more towards slayers.
IMO events need to be geared towards the entire community including Logis and support people not just skaters.
I find your lack of heaviness... disturbing...

"REVENGE OF THE FALLEN" EVENT, we fight for friends of the game we lost. Both unjustly on the battlefield as well as those who left the game. We must hit 3 things . Save X number of lives, kill X number of people, hit X number of war points. Sorry I tried lol . Pls someone get me off 666 likes, would be appreciated :)

I would like to see an event that actually uses the "other contracts" tab. It would just be a place where ccp could go crazy and change the rules of the game. I imagine it being similar to the labs playlist in the Uncharted games.
Examples: 48 player matches Test an Experimental gamemode No squads Half the gravity Free tanks and no vehicle limit Put the skirmish objectives in ridiculous places on the map
You get the general idea. Cycle something special in once a month or so and maybe give special rewards for playing.

I wouldn't mind a Days of Dust event where a special contract map is enacted, Ambush with vehicles, but the idea is to race LAVs as a team. We (Tritan Industries) used to do this alot back when there was no vehicle cap in Ambush, it was alot of fun. |

I'd prefer something with some "story", too. Barring that, a spinoff of the MCC wherein players receive 1 SP + 5 ISK + .005 Warbarge Components for each clone terminated by the community over the course of the event with no upper cap and 5 keys per mil or some such.
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

I like events when the events themselves are fun, rather than give out good rewards.
For example, I liked the Shinobi Event (event though the rewards were 'okay') more than I did the million clone challenges.
I would like to see an event that caters to all 5 specializations in one big event. Such as:
Hack 100 installations and 25 objectives. (possibly for scouts)
Kill 1000 enemies. (Assaults)
Soak up 50,000 damage near an objective. (Sentinels)
Rack up 500 assists. (Commando, I guess?)
Save 500 lives. (Logi)
This would probably not only help steer newbies in the right direction by telling you what each suits' strong points are, but also allow them to gather a few sweet rewards for doing it right.
However, a lore event > All. |

Something that doesn't require a lot of developer resources. I'd rather they spend their limited time/resources on adding stuff that will be around forever instead of something that's fun for a week or two. I like events that reward players for using militia gear. It mixes up the meta. Maybe one where you have to get a kill using every type of MIL weapon.
Best PvE idea ever!

I prefer vehicles to kill vehicles with consistency, and intelligent AV nets to restrict their movement while killing the bad vehicles who play too aggressively.
What I don't prefer is 2/3rds of a team switching to their free AV suit and chasing around a single tank like stupid sheep as someone hacks all the undefended points.
When a proper AV net is set up, a tank doesn't always need to be killed to be made worthless. But for AV spamtards, that's not enough. Absolutely every person on the team must have some form of AV out and willing to chase that tank into the very fires of Mount Doom until he is destroyed. That's pub mentality and it is ridiculous. Killing the tank becomes more important than the game itself.
And don't act like you haven't seen it.

I would like to see an event catered to logis. X armor repaired in a week. Or x amount of people revived. Soemthing other than "Let's kill all the things" with simple gimmicks like "kill X with Y" Why not reward the logis with an officer needle BPO of some sort?

lol. That's easy data to collect.
Step 1: Call in tank, LAV, or dropship. Step 2: Hit it with AV, chart how long it takes to destroy vehicle. Step 3 repeat steps 1 & 2 using different module combinations...
But that's counting on the fact that you could test that yourself, and we all know your in-game testing is intensively non-existant

Problem with AV is that you don't recive WP with hardened vehicles.
This is still big disadventage that AV dedicated player (not vehicle user) don't take revard compared to rest both vehicle and infantry.

I'd just like to see and event like The Battle for Caldari Prime again.
There was a goal (save/kill the titan) EVE players were involved, Dust players were involved. There was a great planetary backdrop, especially at the end. It felt like something important.
The events now..... well, they are blah. I don't care about the rewards. The feeling of excitement, the feeling that we had a part in the universe, that's all gone and that's what I miss most. I understand CCP tailors these events for data gathering, but can we have one [Just one] a year that isn't data gathering and actually feels important?

I would still like maps where DSs/ADSs would be crucial like having hack points at the top of spires. I would like if some of the old, more open maps could be put back into rotation for greater tank battles. In short, maybe something vehicle related. Something FW based would be good too.

Whatever it is, it would be nice to use the Special Contracts tab in the Battle Finder at least once in all the time I've been playing DUST. Doubt it will happen but just saying.
*UPDATE: Maybe they could use Special Contracts for an event where all players queuing are locked to using only Starter or Max Level gear (either end of the gear spectrum). Would be a great chance to try out meta-level lockout that was discussed a while back while also directly seeing the pros and cons of meta-level locking (and seeing if anyone can find a way around it).

Screw that what happened to all those players who remember Caldari Prime, the Titan Skybox, the recorded number of wins that saw the Caldari claim the Ground War over the Gallente and the drama unfolding up in space and a small force of the Caldari Navy held out against rather overwhelming odds forcing the FDU to put their entire wing of Solteur class Iaptian Titan's on stand by.
More of this with unique rewards not this repetitive WP grind of 3 battles for 50x Neo Dropsuits.

I was saddened...I couldn't lend my support to the Caldari during the Battle of Caldari Prime...had several Phoenixes...Phoenixi? What is the Plural of "Phoenix" anyway? Ready to go to support the Titan there...
More Events like Cladari Prime would be awesome...particularly if there was something having to do with "Emergant Threats" from Drifsters and Sleepers...something having to do with those truly massive (Even in EVE Terms) Sensor towers would be awesome...Mercenary Actions on Platforms near them...etc etc

These could also conincide with any new game modes that are released, maps, or moods/sjkyboxes.
PvE against Rogue Drones? Did Deep Core Mining stir up trouble in the Cloud Ring region and uncover massive Drone hives? Do we need to go and save them to prevent their holdings from being destroyed? Are these Drones perhaps the vanguard of Drifter ground forces?
Etc, Etc,Etc
As long as the plot is good the event and its rewards will be memorable. Especially if our efforts actually achieve something that in turn affects EVE pilots somehow.

How about an event where we can fight with or against pirates like the Guristas pillaging a space station? If it's possible, we can actually fight with or against NPCs. |

Isn't that what you AV people should want? More AV backup to kill tanks with? Or do you intend on soloing everything? I think he's more under the view that they shouldn't be wasting their time running into tanks with swarms dying repeatedly.

Mikel Arias wrote:Hi. Im just curios to know what people would like to have as an event. There are two things I would love to have.
1. A vehicle event. If you kill someone being inside a tank or a dropship, you get +1000 sp, for each kill. LAVs count too. No road kill allowed, in other words, only killing with turrets. Now, this might sound way too easy, specially fot those guys who are really good with tanks or dropships, so, for the infantry, for every vehicle they destroy, they get +2500 sp. Too easy? Perhaps, but would be nice to see the great tankers and pilots versus the good AV players.
2. I think there was something similar to this. An event where people can choose sides; choose one, you get certain quantity of a special suit to fight (a good, almost OP suit, pre-fitted). (And maybe there should be a limit to this first side) The reward they get is similar to first event idea; for every kill the get using the special suit, +1000 sp, and for every five kill with the suit, they get an extra suit of this kind at the end of the event. The other side, that didnt choose the special suit, they get to hunt this special suit, and for every kill AND terminate of this suit they get +3000 sp and one of this special suits at the end of the event. Why +3000 sp and a suit for each kill and not +1000 and a suit for every five kills? Because, in theory, should be easy to get more kills with the suit.
Now, this are simple, raw ideas, but I think you do get the point. Is there anything you have in mind that you would love to have? It doesnt have to be something too elaborated, nor "real". I just would like to know what the people would like to see.
#2 has been done before (Caldari Prime, still the best event). and We're about to get #1. sweet.

And it was still the best event CCP held for us hands down.

One problem with this is that for vehicles, it only reward the gunners and pilots that can use a turret (tanks and assault dropships); LAV drivers and regular dropship pilots would get nothing.

You are absolutely right. However, before thinking an event for those guys, there should be a way to make their roles more important. For example, I have seen ideas about implementing a system in wich a mercenary could "make a call", so a sign or a message or something appears in a way that pilots can see it, so it would appear where the guy who is calling for a ride is (point a) and the place where he wants to go, his destination (point b). This message would be for all the pilots (and maybe guys in lavs?), so they could confirm or deny the call; if they accept and do the job (take the guy to where he wants to go) they get wp.
Now, I want to make clear that this is not my idea, it was someone else who proposed this, but saddly I dont know his name nor found the video he made while he explained this idea, wich I find amazing because its solid (I dont know if I explained it right) and its completely related to the role of dropships. I do think that LAVs should be included in this to make them more valuable, as well as I think they should get an armor and shield increase.
I also believe that there should be a map in skirmish where, as others have proposed, a certain objective (A,B,C, D, any of this) can only be accesed with a dropship, however this could be a reason for people to say "thats not fair!". So... a solution would be that this point could be accesible for everyone and not just dropships, but that those who dont use or take a dropship had to take stairs or ladders... a lot of ladders. Also, I propose this in skirmish because even if a team cant get a hold of this objective, there would be others they could control to win the match.
This are just ideas that I like and think could give a new style to the game, I understand if people dont like it or if they do, that they can improve them and also propose what they think could really help with the role of dropships and LAVs.

Since the last event was not well received all around, I thought I'd bump this.
I'd like to see a lore based (make up a decent story) event again with 2 separate objectives for two separate prizes (pick between which). Whichever objective is completed first is what you get (should be difficult where you cannot complete both). Possible objectives could be so many kills with specific faction weapons (as can be tracked) or so many completed (not won) FW matches. Prizes could be so much ISK, LP, and/or maybe a fancy new SKIN.
I don't troll; I tell the truth.
I'm also known as "The ANTI-Propaganda Machine".

Can't wait for the minmatar HAV, should make my hit-and-run-before-AV-can-respond playstyle much easier to do.

So, over on the EVE side, the Sleepers/ Drifters seem to be collecting corpses of pilots from space.
The Scope released a video about the autopsy of one of the Drifter pilots bodies, and from that we know they're genetically similar to the Jove.
How about we get those drones we've all wanted (I know, I know, PS3 resources) to start scanning/collecting our corpses from the field, the SAME TIME we're fighting in FC/PC/Pubs.
Imagine, you and the reds are fighting over a point when the drones arrive and start scanning and taking bodies from the field. Now both teams have a choice, keep fighting each other, team up and fight the drones, or free for all and kill anything that moves.
