Kain Spero Imperfects Negative-Feedback 1252	Posted - 2013.05.01 18:00:00 - [1] - Quote Hey guys, I'm still recovering from flying for 25 hours (I don't know how Grideris and the other Aussies are still alive) and getting my bearings. I'm pretty much always going to be available through kain_spero on Skype, so feel free to shoot me question an let's have a conversation. I don't have any illusions about knowing everything and it think it's vital for the CPM to consult field experts in regard to everything from specific weapons, suits, and vehicles to types of gameplay. I think the most valuable feedback will always come from the players. You can also send me a mail in game at Kane Spero (although this gets cluttered pretty fast) and email me at [email protected]. I look forward to hearing from you.

DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 2727	Posted - 2013.05.01 18:08:00 - [5] - Quote Can you possibly shed some light on what the CPM as a whole discussed, as to the future of the CPM and what they currently intend to do / should be doing? Like, is there a clear direction you all will be taking the CPM over the course of this year, or is that all NDA type stuff?

I just got the short end of the stick on a buch of layovers. I miss Atlanta's airport. I lived in Macon when I was a kid and remember that thing being built up. One of my favorites as far as ease of use. I havent been to Buckhead in a long time.

XXfootnoteXX DUST University Ivy League 230	Posted - 2013.05.01 18:13:00 - [10] - Quote I would love to know more about the plasma launcher. Honestly all the video's make that thing look horrible. Am I off base?

crazy space 1 ZionTCD Unclaimed. 1060	Posted - 2013.05.01 18:35:00 - [11] - Quote Hey I'm having an AFK event today with prizes, Are you willing to help kain? The idea is that since there is no reward for going into battle we should just get the same progress by playing other games we make up. LAV racing in the red zone, Hot potato games with gernades, mass nanohive and droplink dropship attack in the MCC. The goal btw is to get enough people to kill the dropship with gernades before the dropship can kill you!! I remember you saying you were interested in this, if you could help run events and gathers names so they can be entered to win I would be really grateful : D The prize is a free merc pack btw
Rynx Sinfar Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 534	Posted - 2013.05.01 18:36:00 - [12] - Quote Was there any talk between you guys about the complete skill / item list we've been begging for? Do you know if we can expect it before update?

I wasn't particularly fond of you being a CPM member but since your from Georgia and I'm incredibly homesick; I'm warming up to the idea of you being on the CPM. Now on topic: Did you by chance notice the reload bug? I would imagine they would have fixed it but since it happens to me so freaking much in the current build I want to make sure it's dead. Also, lists, how much faster do they load? If there is one thing truly op in the current build it's the freaking list loading times.

What steps is CPM taking to ensure they don't become a filter with personal agendas?
GeneralButtNaked ZionTCD Unclaimed. 394	Posted - 2013.05.01 19:47:00 - [15] - Quote The only question that matters to me is: Are you planning to be a CCP ball licker like IWS and Jenza or do you actually want to rep for the players? Time will tell, though I suspect that every CPM member was chosen based on their ability to do CCPs dirty work. Prove me wrong, but I won't hold my breath.

TBH Kain is probably the only person on the CPM that you dont have to worry about doing this.....even if he is the last man standing.

Come to me respectfully with your concerns and input and I'll be happy to listen and convey those concerns. If I see things that I will hurt the health of the game in the long run I will do everything in my power to stop it. Non of the meta game or all of the hard work all the us as testers have put into the game matters if Dust fails.

We need a system in place that ensures people are rewarded for actually fighting on the field (or flying troops to where they need to go). Any system that rewards people for doing nothing needs to be fixed.

What checks and balances are you considering?

I didn't notice the reload bug myself in the new build, but as always report any bugs you find in the tech support forum and be as detailed as you can. The new build feels a lot snappier, but I'd like to see how it performs live.

What checks and balances are you considering? I think the Single Transferable Vote system as used in electing CSM 8 is one way to mitigate dead weight candidates. I think the CPM will need to watch how CSM 8 develops and see how STV and merit -based travel impact the quality of the council. in the end I feel that the community and players should have their voices heard and any processes put into place ensure that everyone's vote counts and isn't tossed out on a whim.

crazy space 1 Krullefor Organization Minmatar Republic 1084	Posted - 2013.05.02 17:16:00 - [29] - Quote There are going to be 24 different proto suits, not counting any new suits they introduce in the next 5 years.each takes 5.5 million sp. That's 6 months. Ok now, that's 144 months or 12 years to max out just the suits with no weapons or support. To put another way , 20440 hours of playing. I've maxxed out all racial frigates , cruisers, battleships, all three weapon sizes , tech 2 frigates and logistic ships. All 4 battle cruisers and a few tech 2 mining ships and haulers. I've got every single tech 2 frigate on the market maxxed out tech 1 or 2. Even have a couple capital ship skills at 3/4. I've been playing eve on and off for a total of 6 years. If I play dust that long I might get one tank, 4 dropsuits, maybe 2 weapons, one fighter jet . And that's it. Why should I stick around so long and put time into dust ? What's your opinion on this subject.....

That's 6 months. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can make about 51K SP a day (without boosters). 5.5M/51K = about 108 days, which equals about 3.5 months.
