If you have questions before you vote, ask. I'll answer.
I'd say serious questions only, but this is the DUST forum. I'd be offended if there were no sh*tposts thrown in my face.

Cross is my top spot.

And when feeling like a sir, scotch or brandy?
It's amazing how much information you can get despite the NDA without actually having someone break it while speaking to you.
Skirting the line hard isn't likely to be something I do a whole lot. There are ways to dig out the answers without carving them out of people.

I think I can actually do a bit more officially than I can as a random numbers nerd from the sidelines.
It's really hard to articulate. But since the game won't die, might as well help shore it up. When things work you can SEE where the game COULD go.

Are you more interested in representing the idea's of others, or is this more about pushing your own agenda and idea's over those who you are supposed to represent? Edit: Oops forgot this And this .l. Back at you.
My agendas are done for now until the meta significantly changes. Ive submitted the stuff and am now in a holding pattern, mostly watching to see if anyone proposes anything that hasn't been presented before dozens of times.
If they can survive me dissecting their ideas and present counterarguments, and more importantly, solutions to obvious issues brought up I'm more inclined to push for them.
I view it as a process.
And I believe I can best serve by working with cross to push for/assist with a port, communication and helping refine processes so that game balance isn't a bloody guessing game.
As far as balance crap goes I've put my agendas on the back burner because repeating myself till I'm blue in the face at the devs helps no one. Especially when they probably heard me the first time.

The fact that you can have a opinion put it out thoroughly with little to no holes is a strength. Your absolutely tactless and tactful both at the same time. Next question: Does your affiliation with CFC affect your decisions?
Hardly anyone in the CFC plays the game that I'm aware of.
If that changes, maybe. Believe it or not goons are phenomenal at spotting things that are completely out of whack.

I'm not joking when I say the ONLY thing I'm actually good at in DUST is AV.
For everything, else there's BPOs.

Will you help push Uplink backpacks or are you more interested in heavy weapon parity?
Yes.
What is the 1st thing you will try to accomplish should you be elected CPM?
Learn what's expected and how the feedback process works. Past that, depends on what the restrictions and openings for stuff are.
I'm a realist. I'm going into this process with both eyes open, and hopefully no preconceptions.

I'm a realist. I'm going into this process with both eyes open, and hopefully no preconceptions. Honestly, I am struggling. You, Kain, Kirk, and Cross I believe would ALL be amazing candidates.
Transferable vote means you pick your top 7 and let the chips fall.

(rough parity with infantry in terms of isk costs, less invincibility, more general utility / an ACTUAL role, easier/faster method of getting them out without the RDV, potential vehicle locks)?
I know you're a little bit biased towards the AV role, but with that considered would you be willing to set aside some of that bias to get to a place where everyone is (mostly) happy? I really want vehicles to come to a healthy place though as we've not had them be in a healthy spot for well forever.
Already done and submitted. I don't need to be a CPM to do that. It's why I'm not pushing the AV/tank agenda.
Depending on If/how much gets adopted and where the meta chips fall will determine how much I push to deflate vehicle costs.
But until word comes on a balance change I'm waiting to see where the chips fall. I'm not married to my proposal, which was bluntly based on the sagaris vs forge gun meta and adjusted to include all AV weapons and expanding to include a few more theoretical.
But it's more about the method of setting a benchmark for solid defenses that was the point of the proposal.
The concept was based on a solid (not maximized at cost of all else) fits. Then balance the AV guns on how long the devs intend it to take to kill an HAV with the hardeners up solo.
The TTK can be pushed up or down at will that way. But I feel that setting a balance PROCESS is more useful than "nerf X, buff Y, and tweak Z.

Well. More specifically I'm done with the initial part of the thing. That part is balancing AV to HAV.
Have to do dropships too.
Dropships are going to be a lot harder.

DeathwindRising wrote: 1 caldari/gallente assault bonuses,
2 marauder tanks
3 LP store parity
4 weapon variant parity
will there be any effort on your part to see these things completed within your year of service on CPM?
caldari/gallente bonuses are IMHO held back by other things being a priority.
Maruders in their original iteration were just tanks, only better. There was no real role expansion. It's why I liked the DHAV/UHAV model idea at least in theory. Making specialist tanks instead of steroidal gunnlogi/madrugar that we have to rebalance AV for... AGAIN. Dropships need love as much as HAVs. LAVs are too costly for cheap transport and fast attack.
LP store is actually Cross' baby. I intend to support his efforts there rather than stepping on his d*ck.
There's more than 4 weapons that need parity.
There's heavy weapons missing two full racials. Rifles are all over the map for what is missing where. Light AV has what, two serious options like heavy. And there's a lack of racially themed support weapons.
Will there be effort? Absolutely. But my priority will be communication and a port.

Processes. I forgot processes. To continue my last post helping rattati set up a balance METHOD, and clear methods for setup, refinement and execution (I'm willing to do scutwork to help things like his HP/SPEED ratios work when applied to other things) are hella important.
If you have a method for adjusting balance then when you find an issue you turn the knob, dial the numbers up or down and let the results come out.
Balance should be simplified, not dragged out into a godawful ordeal. And if balance parameters are solidly established? Adding new things becomes potentially less torturous.

I am going to work on convincing people that the core function of the game is worth the dev time investment. More core stability = less buggy crap in theory.
I think a single platform port would be shortsighted. So I'm looking to get both a PC and PS4 port going.
Microsoft can go to hell because (to my knowledge) they refuse to have an xbone game not on their own servers and they want full access to TQ and EVE to allow DUST on their X-whatever. I may be wrong on the details but that's my basic understanding.
If I am correct, I'm with CCP in saying "screw em."
PS4 and PC have my full and undivided support. I want both, not just one.
You will have to define "stooge." The odds of me allowing anyone else to dictate my opinions is about as likely to happen as rattati is likely to put up with me making ultimatums. I.E. nil.
So if I have a positive opinion of something it means I feel it stands up on its own merits. If someone were to tell me "your public opinion will be X" I would tell them where they can put it rather cheerfully.
The fact that you imply that people including Kevall and Cross might be "stooges," however, strikes me as unwarranted.
Cross has about my tolerance level for B.S. Kevall probably wouldn't be wasting time with this if that was the case. I've interacted with most of the CPM In comms and squad. Expectations of stoogehood would realisticallbe met with EXTREME hostility by the majority of CPM1 and the candidates I'm talking to regularly to see if we are capable of working together.
The only reason I'm subjecting myself to this is I don't believe Rattati expects me to be Johnny McYesMan. If he did I'd have been eliminated entirely from the running by the CCP community team and you wouldn't be able to vote for me.
