The players who regularly play the game prefer:
- events over stagnation and silence
- fixes over events
- updates over fixes
- port announcement over updates
- a playable port right now over a port announcement
I've realized long ago that the community - the 'regular players' - will never be happy. They want it all, they want it now. We do what we can with what we have when we can.
But please, boycott the game. I'm sure it will be a much more pleasurable experience without the constant complaining being around any longer.

I'm pretty sure that WP earned using a repair tool can be tracked. If kills with certain weapons can be tracked, which from what I'm aware there have been events like this, certainly it shouldn't be too much different to figure out WP gain from your repair tool.
And yeah, I agree. An event with a focus for logis, even if it's not something only a logi can do, is damn great, in my book.
It can probably be manually tracked but to actually have it tracked with the Daily Mission system is wholly different. Basically the current Daily Mission system only keeps tabs on one variable at a time. So, kills, for instance. Assists, WP, etc. It can't keep track of Kills > Rail Rifle. WP Gained > from Needle.
Hence why the events we can run are quite limited because otherwise CCP would have to sit there and look over a spreadsheet of every single player who gained the alloted amount of WP, how they got it, and then manually dish out rewards (basically speaking. There's more to it than that but I'm paraphrasing for example). This is how events -used- to be run and it's insanely time consuming. Time that could be better spent working on 1.3.

I should try it We are waiting over a year for basic changes, damn right players will complain and be right to do so. As I said in the last event.. - Event brings players back online - Playing Dust reminds them not to I don't support the boycott, it's moronic.. the boy band reference should have pointed that out. I get what position you are in.. but don't reply acting like you were any different from the current posters. If CCP want me (and many others) to stop complaining, they could start by sorting their game out
Never once did I complain about an event being too easy. I complained about the systematic destruction of core game mechanics and principles through the introduction of items that brought power creep (APEX BPOs, Krin's Damage Mod, etc).

But when the playerbase is at a pretty low number (because of the state of the game)
I am not going to applaud it, when any and ALL work should be directed at fixing the problems keeping players away. It probably took 15 mins to make the splash screen and another 15 to enter values for missions.. If that. And the asset probably got done at home and brought in next morning. Get off it man.... jebus
I wish it were that simple. Would make everyone's lives a lot easier.

Just pointing out how a screen, some missions, and a reskinned (hopefully) tool are HARDLY draining resources.
Highly doubt it'll be reskinned. Just warning you now.

I am astonished how I managed not to candidate myself for CPM 2. Once again. Half an hour listening to CPM1 discussion and I felt like I was sh..tstormed. Listening to CPM2 changed that a lot. Sarcasm right there.
Works with me. I'll shut up for the rest of the day, just for you.

That doesn't even dignify a response... just Mortedeamor wrote:cpm aeon amadi already said the reason this event is set tup this way is because itsa handout to new players it has absolutely nothing to do with this being the best format for a logi event He said it was meant to be easier than the prior event, but you have seen a post I haven't please link it. he said it was made easier for the new players and why doesnt 5000 wp in one match not dignify a response i hit that twice today casually playing with a couple good hellstorm heavies as far as i know most any logi can do that..
I said it was made easier based on feedback of the event prior to include everyone using a relatively easy objective to complete given that it was taking place over the holidays.
EDIT: FFS it's thankgiving, why is there so much effort to downplay this?

Ask Kevall Longstride and Aeon Amadi if you don't believe me. Being twats and boycotting the game only pushes back any progress #PortDust514 made with CCP. Can't repeat this enough. You guys are undoing any progress we might have been making by doing this.
Guarantee that they're not undoing anything apart from their own daily login bonus and SP progression, lol.

Why do you think that the boycott is in direct opposition to the #portDust514 campaign? How would your campaign lose ground? Where is the logical connection? EDIT: Both actions indicate that the remaining player base cares enough about what happens to Dust to organize themselves and demonstrate a message. The message is clear to CCP either way. Anybody left around playing Dust wants it ported off of PS3 by any means. The point of the social media campaign is to show solidarity and support for whatever their plan might be in the hopes of encouraging them to open up more. Doing these "boycotts" comes across as trying to strong-arm them into giving us info which likely only make them more reticent.
Lol, not really. I can't speak for CCP but I'm pretty sure the majority of the CPM are looking at this as a grain of salt. We're more interested in the #PortDust514 movement :3
This strike is basically them saying, "Well, they're not talking so I'm not talking! We won't talk together! THAT'LL SHOW 'EM"

ANON Cerberus wrote:GM Archduke wrote:TheD1CK wrote:But it shows CCP will skip over their player feedback and go ahead with it anyway I know you don't see the support tickets asking for an event not focused on the number of kills, but you can check the player feedback on the previous events. On every single one of those threads you will see a high number of posts asking for an event more fitting for logis, and complaints about the kill-count-grind. No exceptions. So...here it is. But apparently adding something the majority of the player-base wants is somehow 'skipping over player feedback'... I was against the low WP limit, and suggested a higher goal, but I was convinced that this is right by one simple sentence - "We just want to be nice and give them something they wanted". Because this, we can give you right here and right now. Doesn't mean that we'd not be working on other stuff. There really is no way to make Dusties happy, is there? Classic, tugging on the old heartstrings. The time for kind words is over! PORT NAO OR OBLIVION FOR ALL!

Well here is the oppurtunity that we were waiting for.
Lets boycott this event to further put pressure on ccp. Not a ******* chance Only been waiting for a logi event since the dawn of Dust How do you feel now that you've got it ?? Does it bother you I will complete it faster in a Min Scout?? Beat me to it. How is a 10k WP goal a logi event ????? Put uplinks on assault suits, play smart and kill people -> 2000+ WP per battle. Being a logi makes things so easy you won't even notice the "event".
The reward is Logi-oriented, thusly a Logi event. The objective is low so that everyone has an opportunity to complete it -over the Thanksgiving holidays-.
Chill out.

-Shrug-. We had the option of a) Work on 1.3 b) Put a boatload of resources into this event.
We chose A.

A lot of players seem to forget that even if a port were announced it'd still just be an announcement and not something that they could even play.
