No, we got a star map and we fight for planets to own them. But we haven't done it yet

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".

daniel philp Algintal Core Gallente Federation 158	Posted - 2013.01.12 13:02:00 - [11] - Quote I think what hes asking for is the power to see the planets change hands and more so a better UI that shows what were fighting over. right now there is no UI doing this which is rely silly because all I see in dust is a lobby system that makes us fight random things and we get payed for it.
Alan-Ibn-Xuan Al-Alasabe Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 96	Posted - 2013.01.12 13:09:00 - [12] - Quote That's because you're doing instant battles. Join a corp and get in on corp battles. Those are the ones controlling planets.

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?

DON RODIE II Deep Space Republic 168	Posted - 2013.01.13 00:30:00 - [19] - Quote I think they trolling because I been playing this beta since july 2012. We are not fighting for control over planets yet. If we was I'm sure everyone would know who owns a planet or not. Corporation battle dont mean fight for a planet. It just means corporation battle lol wtf

Ok I'm guessing corp battles are testing the way how battling for a planet will be at release.

Ok I'm guessing corp battles are testing the way how battling for a planet will be at release. Lazy troll is lazy. But since you have probably confused people, I ought to go over it for innocent bystanders (basically, Virex Staz is right, at the moment). ^_^ From the DUST 514 "blurb": http://www.dust514.com/game/faq/ Quote: What are the objectives? Mercenary teams in DUST 514 wage battles, acquire territory, amass wealth, and build empires. By battling with and against other players, players can control specific areas of the EVE Universe. Once they gain control of a territory on a planet, they will have control of its resources and can build upon it; the more resources players have, the more powerful they become. What CCP says is happening now: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/EVE-DUST_514_Link_FAQ Quote: What are these corporation battles about? The four Empires have all begun to construct installations on the surface of temperate planets within factional warfare space that allow them to affect the system control to a limited but noticeable degree. Holding districts containing these installations is of high importance to the factions, so they utilize mercenaries to attack and capture districts from the opposing faction. The NPC Faction Warfare militias issue attack and defence contracts that Dust directors/CEOs in player corporations can accept. If the attacking corporation wins the resulting battle the ownership of the district is flipped over to the attacking faction. Faction Warfare lol wut? http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Factional_Warfare Basic idea: The giant Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, and Minmatar factions are starting to use DUST 514 mercs to affect planets. Where? In the Factional Warfare systems of low sec. Low sec lol wut? http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Security_status Spce is divided into "high sec" or "Empire space" (security rating 0.5 to 1.0 space controlled and patrolled by the Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, or Minmatar NPC factions), "low sec" (security rating below 0.5 and above 0.0 space mostly controlled by the same four NPC factions -- Faction Warfare happens here, and players can do more things to shoot each other with not as many consequences), and "null sec" (security rating 0.0 and below space -- some of it is NPC pirate or other NPC controlled, most is player controlled). But CCP said I can own planets! Soon(tm). Here, in the unaligned places in null sec: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/0.0 That's space, CCP said planets! Ah, OK. Here, planets! http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Planet http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Planets Bright side: We are starting on the Temperate planets, and there are only 714 planets in low sec -- and Faction Warfare only takes up part of low sec. More planets than you have fingers and toes... I think... but a good start! Anyhow, lotta places above to find CCP's words. lol wut? Er, have a good day.

" rodie there are already corps fighting for control of districts(more than one district win required for planetary control) on eve planets. i am currently negotiating contracts with eve corps for the planets they want my corp to flip..... it is already happening and as an example ZION already controls a few planets which most certainly has had an effect eve side.... the initial corp battle contracts are NPC but the effect to the system control for Faction Warfare eve players is the same the more planets we dust corps flip/own the easier it is for the eve players in that faction warfare alliance to flip occupancy and make more isk in eve... right now the ui in dust is not so great so you as a player in dust dont see the effect so easily but that will be fixed SOON tm hopefully this helps
