After playing a lot, it appears as though CCP lowered the old weekly cap and put in a daily cap.
My first impression is that:
Weekly cap is possibly 300,000 to 400,000 SP Daily cap is possibly 25,000 to 50,000 SP
Rough estimates, as only one day of testing :p.
But hopefully it will help some players and alleviate some worries from others.
Yesterday morning I was getting well over 20k SP/match, now I'm hitting around 5k-ish. I haven't been able to completely fix the difference between today and yesterday as match results/WP were fairly different. I'm attempting to get my SP gain under 1k, and I'll compare the difference between that and what I gain the next day.
I noticed that a dev/gm combined threads into this one, so I won't make a new thread for it, but it'd be nice if people could help in testing. If we get a bunch of peeps writing down the difference in totals between resets it will help pinpoint the cap.
EDIT: There is no daily cap. It's still weekly, but it feels like they lowered how much you can earn per week. |

Also, in support of the new changes, the old system was terrible for new players. The older players would always have an advantage that could never be matched/overcome. All you had to do was log on to battles with your corp for two days and you'd be set.
The daily cap is not meant to be hit every day by every player. This allows newer players to devote more time to become closer to the older players, and the weekly cap will make it so older players do not have to play every day to keep up with the newer ones.
On average, someone who plays a game all the time will be better at that game than someone who does not. You'd don't "generate" skill by not playing a game. I don't see the new system as too unfair and IMBA if there is a large weekly cap with a smaller daily one. It just means less alts :>. |

Yah, no daily cap. It feels kind of like they actually lowered the weekly cap too. |
