Removing the passive generation of officer gear was one of our biggest goals as newly elected CPM members. We felt it was a bad idea to allow dozens and dozens of weapons to be generated freely by every player and his/her alts.

We argued and pleaded with CCP to change the system, and eventually they agreed. You can contend that it was too little too late, but we got to it as soon as we had the power to do so.

I know. I think you should have gone further though, and wiped everyones officer gear. Assign an ISK value to each item and then compensate players for items removed.

Set things right.

I have 500 nanaki.... Hell it's basically a BPO

But I buy for the sake of collecting... Others buy to just pwn kids... It's annoying.

I only buy officer gear for PC and nothing else.

Makes sense.

...... Wanna buy something?

Nah, I got enough.

i have officer gear. ive got plenty of balac ck.0's and frames and RR's, magsecs, bolt pistols, and sniper rifles, plus other stuff that i just trade or sell cause i dont use it. this isnt a post from a guy who ran out of officer gear. Im posting this because i have more gear than i can use and i know other have more than i do, which is the problem im pointing out.

ive got enough balac' ck.0 to run in pubs and not care, and frames for days. thats a problem, even though i hardly run officer gear out of spite.

It's 2016 and some of us are still here. Overall, things are falling apart. Mass disconnects are becoming more frequent, and Frame rate issues are still plaguing us. Lag of course is still here, but really what im concerned most about is the rampant and borderline common use of Officer gear in pub matches. And also the jump mods.

Officer gear was supposed to be rare. It's not. You can't play one match without someone running Officer gear these days. Can you look into usage data for officer gear?

I'm not sure, but you guys didn't plan game and weapon balance under the assumption that officer gear would become common did you? The gear is by design, op, and now new players are facing vets without access to these items. They can't compete. I was under the assumption that officer gear was for the highest levels of play, such as in a tournament, but stomping noobs in pubs with it? How is officer gear balanced when it's frequent and common?

Please review game design and balance for Dust 514.

I love it when the enemy uses a lot of officer stuff, it helps to pad my paycheck when I stomp them.
