Reposted here since I was an idiot and posted it in the locker room:
Assume that the SP cap is 27.500 (sounds right, I'm just not sure about the exact number.
What I want to suggest is making changes to the cap system. Instead of a daily cap, the cap changes from day to day. Launch date was 8th of January, we're now at 14th of January, and unless you have played every day, you lose out on possible SP. This is going to work AGAINST new people joining Dust. If a new person joins today, I would love to have his SP cap being 27.500SP multiplied by the days since launch. 6 x 27.500SP = 165.000SP, meaning his SP cap today would be 165.000 SP, tomorrow it would be 165.000 + 27.500 - whatever SP already accrued.
This would not only help newbies, but you can now also take a day or two off and live your life without having to log onto Dust every day to get your SPs.
I think this is a rather elegant sollution, I hope you others agree also not least CCP. |

Yes for the nth. time. A rolling SP cap would be the best. |

Yes it it good. And it has been suggested numerous time. But let's face it... CCP knows their main income will come from passive and active boosters..
With such an active cap, people could use one day booster and work like hell to get the max out of it. When now, people that want to max out every single SP need to have an active booster on EVERY day. And CCP likes money. just like any other VG company. Not blaming them, after all they need money to keep building the game. |

to a new user, the cap will be standard and not "seem" excessive.
new users don't (and current users shouldn't) care about SP. It's the on field performance that counts.
CCP has flattened out the suit usage, *want* to implement match making for users of equal skill.
as caz said their main income is from boosters etc, which I have no problem with. There are always going to be new players, and when they are locked into high sec, they won't see that blatant gap from the guys with proto gear.
I know it's going open beta soon, but sadly CCP have put themselves in this corner for the beginning of dust. I would have liked it so "if you are x sp below y sp requirement - you don't get to play in league z unless with someone who is".
when matchmaking is like that, SP isn't as important as everyone is around a similar size. I would also like to see US/EU servers merged - I ALWAYS play on US servers, I prefer it for the player count and the competitiveness. sure I get lag, but not so bad I can't perform. |
