So I am wondering, are we at a point yet where we can trust that our hard spent time and ISK/SP are in for the long haul? Or, are we at a point where we will still be wiped clean and left naked in the DUST? Has any kind of special item/symbol been decided fro the Beta testers? I am just wondering what is the Biz CCP. Thanks for your time, and I love the work you guys have done so far. |

Definitely naked for release. But with a truckload of experience and mapknowledge, I still consider that an advantage. |

Map knowledge might be very little depending on how they do the larger "maps" |

This may be the case. But we'll all understand how the skill and weapons work. So we don't have to spend our first few weeks experimenting to find out what works for your particular play style.
We can instantly buy the right equipment and skills. |

rumor is about 2 more wipes before release, maybe more. And just in case anyone was hoping, there won't be any sp/isk carried over between beta and release, the most we can hope for is a beta vanity item. |

Even with semi-random maps, some of it will help. From the way they have described the way the map generator will work, for instance, the entire central complexes from the Communications and Biomass maps will be the same for any map that comes up with that type of complex in the generator. So even though the rest of the map may be different, we will still have some advantages from knowing the layout of these complexes. |

Our rewards are the one-of-a-kind drop-suits like the Dragonfly and Skinweave - those wont be available for post-beta players. |

My guess that there will be multiple models for the different complex types. Say, a mining complex - there will probably be several different layouts and building types for that type of complex, most likely base on things like: what is being mined? what is the surrounding area like? faction? and things of that nature. |

expect that every build between now and launch will come with a wipe, and then when they don't wipe, you'll be happy. |

You can throw that map knowledge away.
Mind you these facilities can 'level' up changing thier apperance as well a lvl 1 biomass reactor will not look anything like a lvl 10 biomass reactor, also its possible to tile set any of the facilities to include random clutter altnerative routes close or opened doors ect ect.
Also they need to add blast doors that people with heavy equipment can blow up but they only open for friendlies.
As somone mentioned earlier faction type of facility as well will change things about but for now no factional symetry, once factional symetry is made there will be so much more things you can mix and match with it be a headache to try to remember and you might as well not bother at that point. |

And even though that's all we're getting, it still has better armour and shields than the Militia Logi suit. |

Current PI command centers have 5 levels so I'd would expect at least 5 different sizes for the command centers, extractor units can have as much as 12 extractor units so they might be quite large.
There are 3 main types of factories which are basic (refineries), advanced and high tech which can only be placed on barren and temperate planets.
Finally you also have a space port and silos for storage.
Though I expect that PI on EVE side gets some major upgrades before we start molesting these installations for real.
I mean if you look at the current way of handling things on macro level there isn't much for DUST. |
