The easiest solution:
Would be to require a Director or above in Squad in order to launch a PC battle. If a Director intentionally sabotaged the Corp, then it can be dealt with by the CEO and if the Director invited someone into Squad that tried to sabotage the Corp, then the Director is held responsible by the CEO. Additionally, there could be a timer added to the system, such as that once a Director realized what was happening, he could kick said player from Squad and once the player was out of the squad, then a 10 second timer would start that would automatically remove the player from the match. However, the team as a whole would be short one player for the duration of the match.
The downside is that "clicks" will probably be formed, but lets face it, Corps that are serious about PC are already "clickish" to some degree or another. Dust Uni had no business taking a district to begin with. If you promote yourself as a training Corp, then train new players, but the community shouldn't blame some forward thinking player or corp for sabotaging. Dust Uni leadership should not have had a District and an open recruitment system. As long as Corps openly recruit and as long as there is no means for Corps to be able to determine if a character is an Alt or not, then every Corp runs the risk of being hit like this. It's the nature of the game and only the Corp can be blamed for not better vetting players they recruit. I'm against any system that prevents Corps from being hijacked, scammed, or stolen from, in any way shape form or fashion. EvE Corps run this risk and so too should Dust Corps. |

Nope, I said don't expect to be a big shot without earning it. Don't expect corps to be 100% willing to recruit you without showing loyalty. I said PC the odds areagainst you so make sure you are prepared enough so that your knowledge and skill make up for your lack of SP.
My point is that assholes creating alts have ruined the new player experience in a game that just came out of beta and to not expect everybody to be nice as a result. I'm all for new guys getting into big corps but corps need to be more than just dudes wearing thesame color. They need to be a team willing to worktogether and sacrifice if necessary for the greater good.
Now stop putting words in my mouth and pretending like you know me. I also never said "HTFU" or implied that's what people need to do. If you have that mentality embedded in you that is not my fault. Hate the game if you need to but it is what it is and people in general are horrible creatures.
Ignoring this thead from here on.
I agree corps need to be all those things and they already are. Listen, new players were doomed from the start. Some Corps are going to have an open recruitment policy no matter what. Some corps, mostly elite corps, will never have open recruitment. The reason this type of issue doesn't affect EvE is because there is more to EvE than just the PvP element, there is PvE and an Industrial complex. Until Dust has PvE and/or an Industrial complex, elite corps are going to run PC, bottom line, nothing can be done about it. Mediocre corps like Dust Uni might take a district, but they'll never hold one for a long period of time. PC isn't about the size of the corp, it's about the quality of the players. You only need 16 players and if you have the best 16 players in Dust, then you are top dog. There is no question about it at all. You either consume or be consumed and if you can't take the licks, then you probably shouldn't be in the prize fight. |
