Why are you complaining? Yea, I know all you want to do is farm, so Ambush becomes your "only" option once you've capped, but every game you play after you cap gets you further and further ahead of those of us that simply can't, or don't, play nearly as often as you.

Entitled much?

I'm just not going to bother going into much detail about the reason why option 2 is the only logical and fair choice because it is openly apparent to anyone with a modicum of understanding for new players of how extremely difficult it is for them, even after only 30 days since the wipe.

Don't you realise you're forcing yourself into ambush because of your approach to this game?

Why do you feel the need to show such disrespect to other players? You speak of efficiency as if this game were a job, a task, something that HAD to be done, not just at your leisure.

Is it really that boring for you guys playing this game? All you care about is stats, being on top and farming SP? I enjoy aspects of that to a degree (improving myself as a player and contributor to my corp) but we differ in one aspect; our motivations in playing the game. Like many Imps I assume your motivation is purely centred on your own progression and to prove yourself better than others, going through the motions like a CoD player desperately trying to get that next prestige.

Whereas, I find myself wanting to go on Dust more and more these days for the people I have come call my friends; my corp. In fact, and I know I'm starting to sound like a boring cliche here but our corp acts more like a family than a group of friends. A family that knows when to knuckle up mind you.

How about getting to know your corp mates, chat with them for 10, 15 minutes between matches, have a laugh; who knows, you might actually start having some fun.

Peace.

No one's forcing you to do or play anything. I've played this game every day and I still haven't hit the Cap, If all you care about is playing for more SP and ISK(Which you should have plenty of) Then yes, you are sounding like a spoiled child right now. Most of the community finds the new SP cap very reasonable and definitely better than it was before, it accommodates everyone who as "Other" things to do throughout the week. CCP can't make everybody happy but they will do their best to please the majority. If you do not enjoy Skirmish enough to play it without being rewarded or ISK, then why does it matter? Stop playing alltogether.

Becuase this community is stupid and people thought it would be a good idea. There was a poll... Why force the dedicated players into mindless killing aka TDM with terrible spawns. We are punishing players who want to play skirmish after the cap.

I say we fix the people suddenly whining about Skirmish SP, and just cut the amount of SP you can earn in each ambush game after cap to 500.

1000 is still way too high for 10 minute games

Kind of interesting when you look at the big picture.

People say why bother with skirmish after the cap because they can grind more SP from ambush... but has anybody analyzed that statement? Is the entire point of this game to grind SP? Is that the ONLY reason many of us play? If so, why are we so focused on it? Is it to level up our gear so we can have more fun in the end? Or is it simply a mountain top we relentlessly want to climb just because it's there?

I dunno, I am starting to think 100% passive SP is the only way to go for a game like this. That way players can focus on having fun, honing their skills, and getting as much ISK as possible to pay for our fancy suits so we can do crazy stuff in matches and enjoy ourselves. Rather than having the obligation to log on every day or so just to grind grind grind SP so we don't fall behind.

I think no matter what SP earning system they use, it will always feel like a job and something we do so we can hit that cap and log off. Because when you look at the big picture and wonder why people play, having fun should be #1, but it most certainly is not the norm in Dust.
