How would removing the soft cap fix the SP gap?

Poor shooting mechanics, boring repetitive gameplay, absolutely zero incentive to play corp battles (which are basically going to be nonexistent next build), rubber banding that has gotten so bad that nobody plays, a lack of sensible progression that has made newbies so crushed they cant even dare to compete even when we do AFK(for the record those who were here before AFK know exactly how many complaint threads there were about unbalanced teams and getting stomped every match), a dwindling level of player interest.


Sorry we are not the ones who ruined Skirmish or Dust for that matter, Without the AFKers grinding for SP this game would already be dead, we've been helping it limp along simply because we believe in its potential.(don't beleive me; todays a tuesday game is dead barely can get a full match anywhere and most of the time its throwing me into european servers which never happens thats how low the player count is). Tomorrow you will see a massive influx of players and tanks that will proceed to farm you to death if they decide not to AFK. By Saturday it will be dead again.

So don't blame me because you are either

1. "Still improving"
2. New to the game
3. Grinding for your SP
4. Sadomasochist.

Id rather mark you as a fool that doesn't know a good FPS game if it hit you upside the head.

Ummm... After you hit the cap AFK farming doesn't work. So as it is used to hit the cap it cannot be used to get the soft cap.

To get the 1000 sp soft cap (or any sp for that matter) one has to get wp to get sp. It is a 1-1 ratio once cap has been hit. So you can afk farm to hit the cap but can't use it to get soft cap, once you get to soft cap only wp's get you sp so people can't use it to get way ahead.

Lulz, man you are dense, you sure you've been playing eve since the beginning, you must not be that good.

What do you think the soft cap is that it would result in hitting the cap each week with greater ease?

There is simple thing that would reduce AFK - increase SP gains like it was in former weekly SP system.

I don't mind that someone will make weekly cap in one day instead one and half and spend time grinding sp. Good for them. Normal people just can't play in average for 2 hours every day just to get the SP cap. (2 skirmish match per hour / 7K SP per match)

If ever SP rollover will came, AFK will be even bigger thing than now.

Do you think that the removal of the soft cap would result in SP gains increasing or that changing post-cap behaviour would somehow otherwise affect pre-cap gains?

I don't understand why you think the 190k cap would be easier to reach.

join a corp and we will set up a 1v1 corp battle. I would love for someone to whoop Gunners butt here. Your forum pvp is strong

The cap is reached equally as easily.

Okay, I get where you're coming from.
Unfortunately everyone would advance at the same pace, then, maintaining the current SP gap... except that a bunch of players would stop playing after the first couple days, which I'm pretty sure CCP doesn't want.
