I want my grind to have a little meaning and I donGÇÖt want to be permanently stuck 4 days behind everyone else, at least with a more active SP system i have a change to catch up. as it stands playing matchGÇÖs is boring i find that with the slower pace game and lower SP earn IGÇÖve just not having fun or thinking its worth the effort. when black ops coming out next month ill be comparing dust to that and which ones provides the most incentive to play is the one IGÇÖm going with. IGÇÖm not asking for a fully active SP system but increase the ability to earn SP over matchGÇÖs, less decay and larger cap would be nice but i can life with out the cap increase, but lessen the decay.

i want dust to succeed but if its not giving me enough incentive to play think about all the other console gamers out there a passive system is for something you can come back to every now and then, a FPS like this is something you play in short burst or long sessions that means you either max out the cap over a session during the weekend or max it out from a couple of small burst over the week days. if i keep running into SP decay over the week day and it effects my weekend playing IGÇÖm going to switch to a more rewarding game, and other people would agree especially the FPS console crowd your aiming at.

dust has a lot going for it but incentive to play, strong gun mechanics, few sever issue is the most important thing to FPSers. fun mechanics, in depth play and risk/reward is dust strong points but those first 3 are what keeps people playing.

Really Becuase I never got less than 10k a match last week, are you just mad you can't powerlevel past me and other people with a life ?

Personally I don't have a problem with the SP cap, it makes sense because they don't want someone who just started to grind for like a week and be able to have the best skills but no idea what they do. The slow(ish) SP gain primarily means that when you spend those points you actually are concerned as to where you spend them. Not just "I guess I'll spend them cause I have it" but more "I need to be sure this will help me because it took me a while to get this much SP.

it forces people to do research on the skills, to make sure that it will help them in both the short run and the long run :D

Or at least that's how I see it :\

I don't think I follow the logic here.

You powerlevel because you HAVE a life? o_0

no no I can't power level :P I got 700,000 sp last week. Other players got caped at 1 million. Last build people who played longer had a huge advatage over us, becuase they would of gianed 8 million sp allready. I'm not joking, do the math

plus as an added bonus older players have to grind for a whole week just to get a single level, while new players can gain at least 20 new skill levels a week

I was thinking it was kinda odd that I would be better off not playing. Avenger is complaining because the first thing he did was waste SP on useless skills, my thing is it strange that by not playing and coming back tomorrow would be better for me. I dont care about not being able grind my way up all the skills are maxed at lvl 5 so there is a limit to how far you can get behind in a certian skill set, its just different and seems counterintuitive to a company, me not doing anything and getting better is fine with me.

Not playing fills no tear jars nor gains any isk.

Even if skill gains are 0 sp the game still is fun as when forgegunning the same clone over and over and over and over and over in an ambush game.

And I also got hatemail from that clone.

when black ops coming out next month

Sorry, this is as far as I got. It could be that I'm just tired but how can anyone even take a game seriously that's reusing a recycled title already.

Some day they'll just mash them all together and call it Modern Call of Black Ops Battlefield.... HALO4, and just be done with crappy mediocre FPS games.

The SP cap is about the only thing they did RIGHT this build. The SP is a means, not an ends. Your goal should be t be a badass and to help your corp do whatever it is your corp is trying to do, the SP is just there to facilitate that.

1. it's a beta. who cares? none of this counts. you guys need to lighten up on your points and just play the

this isn't feedback

this is whining

"wahhhhhhhhh... not enough cookies for dessrt! wahhhhh i won't eat my dinner! wahhhhh"

so starve then



and i keep saying it but it ain't sinkin in:

this is ACCELERATED beta

the sp gained during retail will probably be smaller.
i don't wanna say definitely but if they make the sp rate as it is now, it'll be the same old race to the middle.
same with isk.

at retail they have to make it even harder for sp/isk gain (at least in high sec, which again, everyone seems to forget, is the mode we are playing right now).

but this ain't feedback, man.
these kids are nuts.

Peace
B

having 250,000 sp at the beginning of the beta is accelerated

same with the isk



i don't believe this rate will be the same in retail
if it is, they have it wrong. or null sec would actually have to be for LESS sp and isk to keep longevity

I only played a few days last week and then decided to grind on my day off and I hit 500sp at the most per match in no time. The current system needs tweaking.
