I have a theory.................................................................................7 years

I have a feeling you may be right. They should just make all SP gain passive if this is the idea.

you mean like i plan out my progress with timers and just let it go, then go and play battles just for money and glory................. i have heard of this system somewhere........ this place i heard it from had no active experience at all and made the game very boring indeed......... i just can't remember what that game was called

I do remember that because of the experience system I thought it was mind-numbingly boring and i could never dedicate enough time to it so i stopped playing.

Here are the details regarding the skill point reward system change at downtime today. To make comparisons between the old and the new system easier, weGÇÖve included outlines of both below. Old system: GÇó Weekly cycle (reset every Tuesday) GÇó Weekly allowance of 190,400 SP per week (7x 27,200 SP, hard-capped) GÇó Diminishing returns on warpoints and time spent GÇô the more you play, the less you get (until you hit the cap) GÇó No consolation prize GÇô once you hit the cap, you get nothing New system: GÇó Daily cycle (reset at downtime) GÇó Daily allowance of 27,200 SP per day (hard-capped) GÇó Linear returns to warpoints and time spent GÇô the better you play, the more you earn (until you hit the cap) - Warpoints earned are converted into skillpoints (1 WP = 1 SP) - Time spent in battle grants SP (1 second = 5 SP) - Consolation prize of 50 SP per battle once the daily cap has been hit

Meaning that to get 27000 SP in one game you would have to get 27000 WP. Good luck with that.. What i see with this change is just a massive "hey fellow no-lifers, go ahead and grind like f**k everyday as you got nothing else to do". Oh and a nice "What ? you working ? Like real life job ? Well, too bad for you ! You'll get 28k SP late each day you miss !! And when you'll have time ? well, you'll reach cap in 7 games and get bored." Nice CCP. Hope this isnt final design. Weekly was a way better idea. And the worst part ? Daily cap x 7 is now WAY LOWER than the previous weekly cap. Nice job QQers

Worth it to play at weekends and use a booster to get as much Weekly SP in time available.

BUT HEY at least the no-lifers will always be above the people who cannot dedicate time to the game everyday... the whole idea that the community wanted a Daily cap was to get MORE SP not less and to not hit that wall on friday that makes someone not want to play

Yagihige Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 173	Posted - 2013.01.08 10:15:00 - [12] - Quote This daily cap would be almost perfect if it transferred remaining daily SP to the next day up to a higher limit. So, if the daily limit is 27k and at any given day you don't play at all, the next day your daily limit isn't 27k but 54k. And this should be possible to extend to a few days, perhaps make it equal the weekly limit. So, don't play 2 days in a row and your daily limit when you play on the 3rd day would be 81k. Don't play for 6 days and on the 7th your daily limit is 190k. But if you don't play for 2 weeks, your daily limit is still 190k. This would make it so daily hardcore players would always deplete their daily limit but allow for more casual players to use only a part of their daily limit and use their weekend/days off to earn the excess SP that they accumulated during the days they couldn't play much.

(no PS3 in afghanistan, (not online anyhow)) come home in may of 2014 and boot my character back up i would have just as many skill points as you without ever playing the game.... does that seem fair to you?
TEXA5 HiTM4N ROGUE SPADES 49	Posted - 2013.01.08 10:20:00 - [14] - Quote Well if you look at it with the passive sp it comes out to 113,600SP per day assuming you hit the hard cap and stop playing. However i think the passive sp gains one sp every two seconds. this would make it come out to 70,400 per day which is still ok. Im pretty sure my math is right on this.

I think I would find such a system mind numbingly boring too if that is a players experience. No sense of progression etc. CCP do seem determined to make SP last for 7 years......I thought expansions would add new skills to learn so this should never be hit anyway......

W0R51N Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 15	Posted - 2013.01.08 11:37:00 - [18] - Quote Im sure ill be flamed for this but... Personally i hate passive ONLY systems, they cater to the veteran players who have 6 year old accounts and scare away new players. It also prevents a TON of people from even logging into the game because they don't get any reward for doing so...they can advance without even playing the game and still keep up with people that play all day long. To me this isn't fair to the people spending time in game. I personally know probably 20 or more people that play other games while they skill up their EVE character because of this system. I also know a ton of people that would play EVE if it were not for the fact that it either costs 200 bucks to buy a character or a year to get your own character to where you can compete in PvP...and thats just for High Sec...2 years or more probably to compete in low sec. If EVE had a system like this one there would be 10x the players logged in at any 1 time because they would be earning more SP while they PVP or do missions etc. It would also give a new player the chance to "catch up" to an extent and have a viable pilot in a realistic amount of time. Passive only systems create lazy players that are hardly ever logged into the game and i think CCP has realized this and its why they are taking a different route with DUST. If it were not for the huge number of Elitist EVE Junkies with 10 year old accounts they would probably do the same with EVE looking back at it. If you think about it...EVE Is Pay2Win...if you pay for an account for 10 years...you win. With pretty much no effort . Also, forcing every player into a system were everyone earns at the same rate no matter how hard they work reminds me of communism, where as effort based systems that reward based on skill and hard work remind me more of capitalism...just pointing that out
Chao Wolf Imperfects Negative-Feedback 209	Posted - 2013.01.08 11:53:00 - [19] - Quote put on fire proof suit if ccp went with a curve for sp, meaning the more sp you have total the less you make per match. Dust would be fair new players have a chance to catch up and hardcore are always moving forward.
