The difference is in EvE it takes Months if not years to develop a spy and infiltrate a corp having to get past API searches and once your in the corp you have to socialize and convince the leadership to give you role to access corp isk and hangers. In dust all you have to do is get your application accepted and then you can sabotage every corp match without ever being detected by pulling the plug on their internet after they que into battle.
That's some meta game..... in depth stuff. |

That's some meta game..... in depth stuff. This is so hilariously wrong. Scamming, infiltration, and spycraft in EVE are easy if you know what you're doing.I know a man who took a corp out in the four hours that CCP gives you to find a plex in your hangar to resubscribe after letting an account lapse. He logged in, didn't find anything worth selling, so he started convoing people. Got someone to pay for his plex, and proceeded to take them for everything they had.
So in EvE if I join a corp in the CFC do I automatically have the ability to ensure 1/3 of the CFC is unable undock form up during a CTA and replace that portion of the fleet with enemy ships?
Cause if thats not the case then I don't think we are talking about the same thing. |

It's a starting point for a sabotage Corp to get their name into the public eye as "the ones who did it first". And they didn't do a great job, so this fuss will die down soon enough, but they've shown people who didn't see it coming (poor fools) what to expect in future, and opened the doors for others to do it right.
I, for one, am looking forward to seeing where this goes. Whole reason why I linked a few propaganda posters too.
lol @ didn't see it coming... their have been posts for months about it. Everyone knew this would be abused at some point. I'm in PC to fight tough matches. Not sit in the enemy MCC and cook grenades on myself to take planets. |

Let's say that you infiltrate, spy, manage to build rank and kick everyone out of the corp and steal ISK. All that you've done is set them back a little. Some people may leave the corp but the people that helped build the corp, the core members will stay and/or rebuild. You can steal all of their ISK but they will just start over and get back to where they were. Meanwhile, you are getting some likes on the forums for outing them.
Scenario 2 could be that you infiltrate them and teamkill them or sabotage their battle. Worst case scenario is that they lose that battle or that district. But if they are better than their opponents, they will launch an attack and reclaim the district. You can always bounce back from an infiltration.
But you want to know what is more damaging than that? Corp A and Corp B talking smack to each other so then they decide to battle it out finally. Corp A beats B...B wants revenge so they battle again and Corp A smacks them again. And a third and 4th time. After awhile, Corp B is going to realize that they are just embarassing themselves because they can not defeat Corp A and they will just stop their campaign. Corp B is now demoralized.
Scenario 2- The corp with the spy can infinitly use the spy to infiltrate ALL of the matches. When you use this tactic the spy is not revealed as all they have to do is DC themselves after they deploy the rogue team. Meaning no matter how good Corp A is as long as the spy is there they will never beat corp B. The only option Corp A has is to kick all of their members and have them all join a holding corp. Which in many corps you are talking about a task involving 300+ members. |
