Okay, before you go flying off the handle, just here me out.
I think that 3-4 days before the tournament, CCP should reset all isk, SP, assets. But, during this reset, go back to the previous diminishing returns over 24 hour SP format (or something similar, NOT what we have now). This will accomplish a few things for both the game and upcoming tournament.
1st- The SP cap as it is now is TERRIBLE!! You wanted people to stay competitive and keep playing, yet, if anyone misses a week of playtime there is no possible way to catch up because you can't just sit down for a long grind session to make up for lost SP. (my opinion, but shared by many others)
2- It solves the isk problem. Instantly erases all the transfers from Eve to Dust that were "unintended" (and yes, i did get home to discover ridiculous amounts of isk in my wallet)
3- Fixes the market/mass purchases situation that is causing the all the recent bugs (if, in fact, that is what is causing those bugs)
4 - This isk situation has already placed a black cloud over the upcoming corp tournament, in the sense that "He who can afford the most good stuff wins" could end up being the case. So the reset would accomplis the following:
-Gives everyone a few days to level into HAVs, Dropships, Forge Guns, HMGs, etc. But only a few, so that everyone actually has to organize as a corp and decide who will specialize in what (and who can afford what).
-Corps could actually have some players in the initial matches, while others are leveling, preparing for later rounds
-Finances and battle planning now become strategy, as opposed to "Cost doesn't matter, call in all the Dropships and HAVs you want"
-Starts everyone on "equal" ground, and removes the inevitable complaint of "they spammed dropships or HAVs" or whatever isk-related complaints that will inevitably be leveled at the winners.
-This also means that as the tournament progresses people can grind for more SP when not in corp battles. Basically starting the tournament with militia/lvl 1 stuff in the early rounds, and finishing in a great climactic Proto vs Proto battle for the championship.
Yes, I do know this is biased towards those who will get to participate in the tournament, but I would still be okay with it even if my corp doesn't get in. Also this is, of course, under the assumption that they can reset only isk, assets, and Sp without erasing our actual corps.
Remember, we've got more wipes coming anyways. Your thoughts?
EDIT: I'd be especially interested in the opinions of corp leaders hoping to get into the tournament. |

Can't believe all the negative feedback you're getting on this. If nothing is done I almost hope we don't make it in the tournament Sake, I don't want to be sitting home all weekend to play in a tournament with nothing but frustrations.
I think you guys are forgetting what it was like in the previous system. I don't know about everyone else but I'm at only 2.1 mil SP right now ( haven't had much time to play lately). I work and go to school full time, I'm plenty busy like the rest of you, but with the last system in place 2.1 mil is nothing. Could be done in about a week or 2.
Also I absolutely loved the idea of the tournament starting out even and kinda wack with low level stuff, but by the end everything will be bananas. Sounds cool as hell to me and will give TONS of incentive to play as much as possible. +1 from me Sake good post. |

Not like anyone is going to keep everything anyways come live release. So why not reset and start with a clean slate for those int he tournament?
Isn't the point of a tournament to display one's skill? Even field would do just that, clean slate before start of tournament and we will be able to watch who can have better organized corp's and who has the skill.
This IS a BETA mind you, so none of this will matter much anyways. We're all here to TEST and find issues. That is exactly what we're doing. This isn't for keeps yet. |

I'm unaffected either way. I only have one point six million in skill points so I do not lose much. What I want is for CCP to release the player market, 'crusader' and 'operator' dropsuits, and finally re-release all three of the MAG tribute dropsuits. Instead of teasing us with the 'Scout' dropsuit. Either way though I am unaffected and so are my wants and needs. I wouldn't mind a wipe, but at the same time if it does not happen that too is fine. |

Yeah no. If they wanted a militia only tourney they would have the power to do it. Instead they gave us time to specialize. You really think you deserve the same SP as those who ground out to 0 every week? (note I'm not one of them, not even close) |

tbh, I'm isk poor, and have very little SP. I'm at a defiinite disadvantage against a lot of players using better gear. But, I'm ok with it. They put in more time, so they earned more SP and isk. I know that in 6months, I'll have more play time under my belt, and it'll be a much more level playing field. |

This would create an unfair advantage in favor of the corps that have huge player counts, giving them more ability to grind a lot of ISK in such a short time to afford things such as expensive skill books and expensive vehicles and expensive not-militia gear.
Give everyone money to use during the tournament if it's such a concern. |

YES! Especially with the recent exploit that allowed players to get money from eve.
Last night, we shot down 3 dropships in 1 game. 3! Good thing they were the worst pilot I've ever seen this build. |

No to the SP reset. What they should do is that each team enters with only their SP levels as they are. ALL ISK and assets to be removed for the duration of the tournament game. Each team will be allocated a set amount of ISK by CCP for the match from which they can fit their loadout. This would allow some balance to be returned yet keep peoples personal SP tree as it is. It would make it interesting to see what areas each corp decides to gamble their ISK allotment. I'm not sure how easy or hard this would be, but if CCP's intention is just a basic tournament rather than the collection of bitter tears from teams low in funds, then this is what I see as the best solution. |

Of course im going to follow my corp mates on this one, i mean honestly you wanna see who the best is right? the best is gonna be who has the best gear. So the proto guys win. If we reset everything and go back to the 24hr cap then we can see who the best is in the tournament by starting on even ground. I hold my own in a type 1 suit if im not just messin around like have the past couple of days. but up against anyone in a proto suit im a sittin duck.
I understand not wanting to let go of the ever so precious SP we've been grinding to get. But its gonna be reset anyways. Im like sake i'd give all my sp away just to go back to the sp we were getting before codex. I hate the fact i get one or two matches of 20k sp and then slowly decline to 2k a game just over three days.
This would clear up alot of complaints before they even got started....
"they won cuz they all have proto gear" "they won because they tanked out the field" "they won because they had **** ton of dropships" "they won because they all had billions of isk to fund everything" "they won because blah blah blah blah...." |

If ISK sharing is that much of a bother well go for that solution. But you can be sure HAV users already stacked 100 of fully fitted HAVs. I wont lie, we did it. Our corp on EVE had a substantial amount of ISK and i didnt have to exploit anything to transfer it apart from clicking "transfer ISK" in singularity.
Yet, we didnt start spamming HAV all around but it was a welcome help for new players buying skillbook and such. |

"Yes. Yes I do"
LOOOOOOOOOOL
boy are you in for a shock!
that right there is the mentality that is killing the console gaming community.
no actually, you don't. you deserve what you earn. you do not deserve what everyone else earns. you're not a democrat... you're a communist.
there is no such thing as "fair". that's one of your main flaws. in life. you think things are going to be/have to be/supposed to be fair. there is no such thing as "fair" after you graduate from kindergarten.
this game will not be fair. your idea is a bad one simply because you want other people to slow down and play at your level, because you are incapable of playing at theirs.

Actually, i play to the cap every week, you probably should have checked into that before assuming this post was about people getting too far ahead of me. What i said wad that it was a possibility, and if someone had to take a week off It would be impossible for them to catch up.
As for Mo, I'm sure he was being smart a**.
PS. Some advice: dont troll around forums pretending to know more about real life than anyone else. We are playing fictional characters in a digital world, you dont know any of us. Makes you come across pathetic and spiteful, when in real life im sure you are most likely a decent person. |

"there would be an unfair advantage for the larger corps."
that is the nature of the game you are playing. it will not change. it is static.
you guys are complaining now... beta tourney.
next comes the complaints on week one about how you aren't making enough in high sec and null sec is making more then comes the null sec nerd then you complain about the weapons being op this or buff that then comes the nerfs and buffs again
the armor is too weak the vehicles are too strong the vehicles armor is too weak or too strong...
never ends.
this is the game you bought into. this is 514. it will never be fair. most of you will go unnoticed. that is the way this game is. adjust to it. don't expect the game ot adjust to you. every other game on the market is there for that.
quit trying to do the same damn things you do EVERY friggin year with EVERY friggin game. quit lowering it to your standards.
join a corp or sit and watch. but quit trying to do this constraints thing that you do every single game release. you keep hobbling clans because they are clans. you keep trying to dial down the speed limit because your car won't go faster then 55. you don't want anyone else speeding because you can't. that's the long and short of it. if you were in one of those "big clans" no way in hell you would be asking for this kinda crap.
just stop. grow a pair and play or don't.

Not only are you reading too far into these "complaints" (actually a well laid out argument but that's another story for another day) but half of them have not even been mentioned here. You're taking generic complaints from this community and fitting them on us because we're here endorsing a reset. Not a one of us asked for this because it would be fair. In fact, the guy arguing against us used that... Please go take a debate class or a troll class because you're failing at both and I can't figure out which one you're going for here. |

I'll try and dumb myself down to speak your language, just this once, then you can troll back all you want cause i wont be returning to this thread, as I have gotten the general consensus about my suggestion for as reset. Which was "No", and that's cool. I mostly wanted the SP cap to revert back to the way it was in the last build anyway.
Man, actually read the posts above your reply before you reply. Please. I'm not leanning on stats, I checked to see if you have any, and you don't. You have 0 kills, 0 deaths, 0 WP, and 0 W/L, which means one of two things, either you haven't ever actually played the beta this build (then why are you here?) or you are too big of a vag to let us know who you really are. (in which case, you opinions mean nothing) |
