as title says, i find this be to be a royal pain. I realize why it is there, but it is quite annoying. In the first few games of the day im getting 80-120k SP, but later in the day, with games that can be even better then those, i am only getting 25k or so. I know they do this so not to allow those who game longer to get an unfair advantage gaining skills; but this also sets up for possibly making people STOP playing the game after an hour.
Ex:
Figure first 3 games (say took, 1 hour) you play you gain 300k SP. THen after since of how SP works, you are only getting 25k per game. That is twelve games (4 hours) u'd need to play to equal the same amount of SP you just received (assume play just as well). At that point, id wait till tomorrow to play so i can get those points faster. (yes i know not playing those other 4hrs will cost me ISK)
All in all, i find there shouldn't be a need to lower SP received the longer you play. I understand not wanting to give and unfair advantage, and have people be super soldiers, but still; cutting the SP you receive almost by 70% from your initial games is nuts; as i know there are people like myself who will do 5-6hr gaming sessions.
CCP, you are known for making things hard for players (gameplay wise); but doing this could negatively affect player counts; as there have been a few times where after ive gotten my max Sp and played a bit more; i went to play something else that would reward me for playing good even during longer seessions.
My only idea for if this would be that your SP gained shouldnt be less then 50% of your first game played (assume played just as well). As i could deal w/ a 50% loss; but as it is, 70% loss of initial SP is rather annoying. |

bare in mind atm were getting 4x the sp as its in beta. so yes the drop is major. but on release you would get 20k before, 7/8k after anti-grind. so it not that much of a drop. |

The reason it feels like such a grind right now is we have a whopping 1 map with 1 mode available to play. Not to mention it's incredibly difficult to sync up and play with friends, meaning you're playing the same thing by yourself (with randoms) over and over and over again.
The drop in earned SP is also so major because the first few games you're at bonus SP rate, then it drops to normal, then it drops to less than normal, which is way less than bonus.
If you need more, you could always buy a booster. I plan on doing that. |

ahh, i didnt realize we were at 4x SP since is a beta; in hearing that; id actually be ok in keeping it as it. Its jsut so annoying seeing a 19-3 score only getting 25k SP; whereas 4-5 games ago it could of gotten 100k+
so yeah; guess id be for keeping it just say is. As figure the first 2-3 games you play will really make u want to try & play good for the possibility for getting bonus SP. |
