Personally I do not think there is a real fix aside from locking entry to PC to only alliance members who have been in the alliance for at least 3 days.

As long as ringers are allowed to enter PC they will be used to farm PC. It is going to be even worse once the new update comes out and passive rewards for districts return.

Lag and modded controller's keep alot of players out of PC, and playing this game in general. They go hand in hand, and guys would just rather not deal with nerds who can't take an L, just avoid playing PC.

Alot of guys (who use them) hate for me to say it, but it gives them a clear cut advantage in the game, because while your just praying for the match, and the lag, to end. They're having a field day kicking the handicap kids that can't defend themselves lol!

I'm sure they'll all come running saying that the modded pads aren't the problem, but CCP Rattati and co. have run themselves ragged fixing everything they come across. The game still suffers from unexplained lag.

Just saying

I saw a guy in local asking for 10 mil to run in any corp for a month lol! That's what we like to call prototype gear addiction. With what's being suggested in the PC think tank, alot of corp hoppers can see there easy isk days dwindling. They will be required to be in corp or alliance, and some of them have such bad reps that they won't get excepted into corps.

So many are joining alliances and corps already that it's hilarious lol! Hopefully CCP Rattati realizes that he's on the right path by cracking down on exploitation. It's the only way to grow the playerbase, and really make money on this game. If nothing changes this game will die. Why these guys don't see that is beyond me.

So what you're saying is I should pick up PE,OH and Cap into our alliance? All 3..sounds good to me I'd rather Fight for than against friends..and since only alliance ringers will work =ƒÿç

I'd like to see the price of clone packs go down, and the number of clones in the pack raised.

If a new corp wants to get into PC currently they have to join an alliance, and pray someone wants to spare a district.

If the prices varied:

10 mil for 150 clones
20 mil for 200 clones
50 mil for 350 clones

Something to that effect would let mercs without districts go for their's without having to tax their corps' member-less.

I gaurantee, even if they got obliterated, you'd see more effort out of corps, and this would mean more battles! Ringers aren't necessarily the problem so much as the lack of fights available.

Also, instead of 3 and out on battles to take a district. Make it more of a campaign with the factional warfare "move the chains" type of setup. Forcing corps to win a large number of battles over time, or win a smaller amount by epic proportion! You have to take control of the district. The map would show owned areas, and contested areas being fought over. Corps, like negative-feedback, could then sign up to fight for the side that pays the most, but would have to pledge temporary loyalty. A small number of ringers per battle would be allowed, 4 to 5 at the most, and that corp who paid for ringers would still have to actually be there to fight.

The fact that mercs aren't always online to help because "life and sh*t" eww, wouldn't hinder their ability to hold an area. Where they may lose ground on a tuesday, they can make a comeback on a wednesday. While this could help them hold, sustained attacks could weaken their ability to gain passive resources significantly, since you should have to have a 65-100% control to receive resources. So there's no "we'll just field outer heaven every saturday" bs?!

On the flipside, for the attacking corps, weakening resources produced weakens control over all, and the chains move faster in your corps favor! This also works for raiding! You could send lower level players in the corp on raids in different areas, while the vets fight larger scale battles elsewhere. Making it worth the time invested in rookies when it comes to tactics training.

On this alone so much fun could be had, but noooo! We wanna spend all our time beating the same guys..... with the same guys?!

Let's give CCP our best ideas, and make the game we love better. To the ringers! You're not losing much either way this ends up regardless.

Why don't we take each of our corps and attack all of PE' s districts at the same Time? Then there own members will have to fight for once

What a magnificent idea. All Corps in Dust launch a full 24/7 none stop attack on Panda Express 14 districts. We'll see how long they last. >:)

Hey its PC right so lets bring some justice. No More Districts to the Isk Hungry PE Corporations.

If you see that weakling Kubos in Gal FW = Kill him along with his miserable brandon the idiot.

So apparently we're negating all efforts to improve PC for neckbearding and forum thugging? Lag wins PC currently. That's not an opinion, but a fact that we can all agree on. So why are we spending so much time arguing over kills that we're not 100% sure we even made, again?

Enlighten me! What would fix the current situation? Skins lol? Passive isk? I mean I'm all for making it better so i'm, unlike most, willing to hear out literally all ideas.

The current system sucks!

Earned. We beat SS

For the record, DUST USER, there's literally the smallest group of players that care about PC. IT'S CRAP, and we're trying our d*mned best to help! We started playing it because YOU bunch of crybabies complained that no one played! Well no f*cking wonder! Look around! Look at you! F*cking laughable! Proud to be a troll lmao!

I've been in PCs where the entire enemy team was not from that corp. honestly I don't really care
