Why is this a good thing? How would they test the game if it reset every week? It would cause an increase in highly unlikely scenarios which the feedback would become based upon giving bad foundation to build the rest of the game off of. Hundreds of people would just use accumulated SP to become monstrous creations foregoing SP that they probably would've invested elsewhere to further survive but instead, because they'd have lots of SP, they'd skip them and go straight to ultimate glass cannons or tanks and cause "Skipped Feedback" |

If they "have lots of SP" I imagine they understand the system better than they did than while they were spending that AP the first time. Therefore they would be creating a better build given the chance. Like I said, I would consider this a temporary game feature. There is precedent for it, and in very successful games I might add. But hey, I don't have a problem destroying glass tanks, sounds fun.
Yeah but you see, having a lot of SP doesn't correlate to understanding SP, it relates to hitting caps and boosters. But the problem with having people getting Proto gear in all areas is that the scenarios that will be created with be like a Proto-purist which wouldn't help in the feedback. Every week for weeks on end it would be proto vs proto which would cause false feedback for when the resets stopped. So now all of the sudden, you have a game that launched that is broken due to testing the beta unlike playing the actual game. |

Truth in these words
They bend the matter to their will, rather than their mind around the matter. |

Personally I don't see this as being anywhere near as bad as people are making it out to be. Instead of discussing this and iterating on it to maybe make a small gem of an idea, we get responses like: "Heyul naw!!!"

This idea is great when considered like this as CCP will get more diverse feedback on many things
This was a solid discussion, did you not read Cross' posts?
The problem with the feedback, diverse as you see it, as I will iterate again, will enact scenarios that on the grandscale would occur next to zilch in the finished game. These kinds of scenarios if tested through, will generate the feedback that I've been talking about, the feedback that misleads the developers.
It's like basing a monster defense system on the one time Godzilla has the Flu, the runs, and a hangover.
We must test the beta like the finished product would be played. |
