This would be catastrophic to the game. Currently, the only reason to keep playing is to get more SP and ISK, there is no other reason, the game is boring as **** and there are a lot better options. If you reset the SP, THAT PEOPLE EXPECT TO KEEP SINCE CCP PROMISED IT, then people would lose the one thing that keeps them attached and makes them come back to the game.
Anyone playing the keep is either a hardcore farmer or a masochist, there are 1000 better games to play until this game improves by a lot. Hopefully Uprising will be that improvement. |

The fact is ccp isn't doing anymore resets because the player base is a bunch of babies and cried cause their SP was getting reset.
And as 343 has put into practice in halo 4, resets, however much the minority QQ, does in fact give players incentive to play more, and actually boosts player numbers.
Not resetting SP in dust BETA is doing more harm than good
explain? because ppl complained about newbies not having a chance due to vets stomping them SP isnt gonna change that we will still stomp them because we been here a year now and know exactly where to place our SP and dont have to stumble around figuring out ****
resetting SP means everyone is back to grinding instant battle pubs for a month or 2 along with said newbies who will get worked by the vets and quit whereas currently when the game does officially "release" the vets will NOT be in instant battle but spending all their time in FW and PC which thus leaves the release newbies to be free of punishment and can possibly enjoy the game more
now with me droppin that logic on ppl again do u really think an SP reset does more good than harm? it only takes a month or so to get infantry stuff up to a good lvl then they can join us in FW and PC but if we all stompin the **** outta newbies for that entire month or 2 to get back our **** they will leave cuz in any game when newbies get constantly raped the game is automatically a **** game |

AFK farming is not an exploit and not considered anything catastrophic. Also, CCP made it abundantly clear there will be no more SP resets as if you just started from zero. And as mentioned by others, there will always be new players ten years from now. Will you then want another SP reset after you reached 200 million SP just because a new player with only 500,000 SP came in? |

As I said quite a few times IF CCP does not do a complete wipe that is fine I am not getting creamed and I am in PFB so I am clearly doing quite well for myself on Dust lol. I am already playing with the weakest suit in the game, I play it the way I keep being told NOT to use it. There is absolutely NOTHING they can do to effect me :) It is only uphill for me :) |

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying CCP isn't also at fault. I just find it hilarious how people do these mental gymnastics to try and convince themselves and others that it's somehow legit >_< |

Not resetting SP in dust BETA is doing more harm than good Must feel like a big man talking down to everyone. Oh, but we didn't ask for no more SP resets btw - CCP promised it and we expect it. But I can see how that would confuse you...
Not a big man, I'm a realist. I'm saying what's best for the game overall when most here are saying what's best for them.
And a vocal minority were here complaining about getting reset, but that's how it always is. The small percentage that visit here will always have a larger voice.
When if comes down to it a reset at every build until release would make the game more accessible to possible new players. As it is now, for every 1 player that plays dust once and loves it, there are 5 that don't and every time it's the response "I can't kill anyone but they can kill me"

Omg I would die laughing.
If you think about it, that would actually be a great deterrent for future AFK farming.
We know CCP is working on an idle-detection system, so they can use logged matches to fine tune it and identify past occurrences at the same time.
We also know that the biggest problem with such a system is the arms race between the AFKers and CCP, they create the detector and the AFKer finds a workaround.
But now imagine that workaround is patched and all SP gained from it is removed!
*Poof* All incentive to find the next workaround disappears.
An initial wipe of AFK SP would serve as notice not to even try. |

Vets are frustrated - new berries are frustrated - CCP seems to think there stances in EvE will be effective in a console gaming community. Hope that doesn't blow in there face. We're not as patient as PC players who expect terrible games. |

would no work out cause you just would make your thumbstick stuck so that your char is constantly moving. My opinion is when you havent earned at least 150WP on skirmish then you wont get any SP at all. |

Yeah I do see why vets don't want their SP wiped is because we've been playing the same 10% of the game for over a year. The greatest achievement ccp has made in a year is that we can talk to eve players. So the game people were hoping for is still years away. And ccp making us have to play now for a feature(or features) we won't get for a while is ridiculous, and tiresome. And the way the game market works when dust finally launches there will be better games out.
Ccp is at a very unique point in gaming. They are ahead of everyone else in terms of scope and sheer depth of games, but if we have to wait that long for it better games that are more complete will release, especially with the next gen systems coming out. |

But that's just it, such an action could be detected simply as it is a constant input. Find any occurrence in the logs and pull the SP earned.
The AFKer could then try another hack, but his incentive is diminished because he knows all the time and effort he invests in it could be retroactively wiped out.
Detection and threat of later punishment is a valid security methodology because prevention isn't always possible or cost effective. That's the logic behind security cameras in banks and stores.
I would go so far as to say that a retroactive wipe is the only way CCP can hope to make its detector into a useful deterrent. |

Or and here's an idea, they make it SP=WPx5
And completely remove the x WP per second crap |

A good idea.
But the OP's idea of a full SP reset. A complete none starter to be honest. It would just annoy too many people for not enough benefit. |

I do belive ccp does and is able to track ideling stats wise.
I also know ccp is capable of scripting removal of sp to specific individuals that meets the criteria. |

stat reset is not a option. People who demand that are just angry that other people invested money into SP boosters. Sorry pal but its getting handled like on Eve. The longer you play it, the more SP you are ahead of new players. |

A complete wipe is a non-starter, but a selective wipe of unearned SP is both possible and beneficial for the whole community.
All those claiming to AFK to call attention to the practice would be able to report the effectiveness of the fix so others wouldn't try. Retroactive wipes puts CCP always ahead of the hackers instead of always behind.
We don't let bank robbers get away with a heist just because nobody stopped them in the bank. The real deterrent is the threat of being tracked down and prosecuted later. |

I honestly think a complete wipe would not be a bad thing. It has pros and cons but I think the pros could outweigh the cons. That is just me and my opinion that I get for being in this free country.
I don't have to make up CCP is facing legal issues for not making their beta up to his standards like Sota Pop. I am just speaking what I feel is good not just for ME but for the community as a whole. For those saying they will quit the game if there is a wipe, hasn't there already been like 3 wipes before? This is a beta NOT the final version of Dust514. I think people keep forgetting that. |

I hope your gun game is better then your ability to grasp, think, or comprehend. If you want to live in ignorance of CCP and there doings that's your choice - leave the rest of us out of it. And even if that ONE point can be countered - nothing else you've said means jack to say a reset would be a PRO at anything but giving new berries an extra chance, which they could of gotton months ago if they went to PS home and got a closed beta key like the rest of us. They didn't give a damn - we did - we're now better off for it. GET OVER IT SCRUB.
So now please stfu. |
