CCP needs to understand that such rules are incentives. I guarantee AFKing will become an epidemic: if you don't have time to play today, might as well fire up the old PS3 and go AFKing in while you cook and watch TV and go to gym and go to bed. Since the SP cap is daily, there is a further incentive to do this every frigging day you don't reach the cap by playing. |

CCP Frame wrote:Hi guys, Here is further clarification to the Skill Points gain system changes: - If you get the active booster the cap is raised to 40.800 SP per day.
- The numbers are only for the active skill gains.
- Passive gain will still be at 24.000 SP per day, or 36.000 SP per day if you're running a booster.
Thank you for your feedback.
So that's a double-incentive for booster use: not only do you get a boost in XP, but you also get a boost in overall XP you can gain.
I'm sure it sounds great to someone with an MBA in marketing but poor understanding of FPS gamers. |

I'm sure it sounds great to someone with an MBA in marketing but poor understanding of FPS gamers. They have to make money somehow and with the prices of the Aurum cost for those boosters it's about the same as a subscription to Eve Online. Only, yanno, the game you're playing is free so... Whatever.
I have nothing against them making money. But there is a great thread where someone did the math, and running a Dust merc goes into tens of euros a month even for casual playing, even if you don't run in AUR gear. No MMO does that, and no F2P game does that. It is not a reasonable expectation.
And I paid for a Mercenary pack (which I can't use thanks to CCP but that's another matter). |
