You might not have, but others are fighting right now to change control of planets.
Dust mercs don't capture planets directly at this stage. We take districts on planets, which helps to make the system that the planet is in more vulnerable; when the system is vulnerable enough Eve players can flip the occupancy of the system (and hence the planets in it). |

So are u a eve player? Lol So u saying eve players own planets and we are fighting for them but we just don't know it yet? Please let me know when we start to directly capture planets.
No, that's not what I'm saying.
Dust mercs are fighting right now to change control of star systems and the planets they contain. They can't do it without Eve players, but that doesn't mean they aren't making a significant contribution. Significant enough to be getting paid hundreds of millions of isk for it anyway.
Instant battles in Dust don't affect planetary control though, and if that is what is bothering you, join (or start) a corp that is fighting for control of planets.
If what you want is for Dust players to be able to control planets without any involvement from Eve players, I suspect you'll find that isn't even on the roadmap for CCP. |

Not quite.
Dust mercs complete a contract for Gallente NPCs to capture a district on the planet, and that reduces the effort that the Gallente faction need to put in to capture the system.
Its not (and probably never will be) a simple case "win a single battle to control an entire planet". |

You couldn't affect planets from Dust before the reset and move to Tranquillity. Now you can.
I'll repeat (again) that corporations don't own planets.
NPC factions/empires own star systems, as do some alliances of player corporations in nullsec. Those star systems contain planets.
You need to be a corp CEO to see the UI for faction warfare battle contracts (which districts on which planets to fight for).
Also, any chance you could be a little more polite when asking for assistance?

Ok I'm guessing corp battles are testing the way how battling for a planet will be at release.
Can't be bothered to talk to you any more. Feel free to keep on moaning incoherently though.
