If you had a real life outside of the game you wouldn't be wanting them to shut down for a holiday. Wanting this means you care a little bit too much I think. Not every country or person has the same holidays or on the same day either. |

I don't want to have to start from square 0 just because I have a life and you don't. That's all this is about. You can be set back to square 0 overnight if you don't treat it like a job. Not cool. |

And this is why I can't get too serious into any of CCP's games. I want a game to be a game sometimes, and not a full time job. |

Then maybe you should stick to the parts of Dust that aren't PC, and thus don't require such dedication.
I, myself, don't participate in PC because my corp isn't big enough. There are going to be parts of the game that don't fit your lifestyle. PC seems to be such part. |

Hence, you're a casual gamer. PC isn't intended for the casual crowd. |

No, that's called someone who has a life and relationships in the real world... Hardcore gamers can have those too.... |

you will be surprised at just how many people play games on their holidays. it is called holidays for a reason.
if you cant be on on those days then that is your choice. your not being forced to play, if you loose ground in dust/eve then that was your choice. these games are a 23/7 sandbox where your choices have consiquences. if you cant be on then get people in the corp who can be on .at the end of the day you can just try and take it back.
if you are struggling with the choice of RL commitments or playing a game then i would seek help from your doctor because something is wrong. |

Not really. Take the original Grand Marshall/High Warlord grind in WoW (sorry for bringing it up, but it's relevant). Unless you cheated you had to actually be incredibly dedicated to get it done. Back then, I unplugged my phone, moved a fridge and microwave within reach of the computer, slept for no more than half an hour at a time (on a couch next to the computer) and took bathroom breaks only when I was queued. Took about 4 days. That's the standard I hold hardcore players to, anything else is just casual. These days I'm a casual (plus what I did was stupid and dangerous). |

I honestly wouldn't care for a cease fire on christmas. The only problem i see with that is that other countries have different holidays.
HQ on both sides were not happy about that either. The solution was to order artillery bombardments to prevent repeats.
Planetary Conquest of today is nothing like the Planetary Conquest of tomorrow. Watch the Fanfest videos, they're talking about having an Eve pilot actually fly the MCC to battle. Full integration of Dust 514 into Eve Online is going to mean a persistent universe. Players organizing into groups and social networking is going to become more important.
No opinion on restricting the timer. Mainly because the game is not set up to even encourage me to play Planetary Conquest at this time. |

No... I never said that hardcore gamers didn't have a life or real world relationships.
If you want to make a decision between the game and your family and friends, then fine, make it. As in real life, with everything, you have to compromise. Don't try to make things a win-win scenario solely for the benefit of a minority, when the majority will either have no holiday that day due to being in a different country, or are on because they have no other plans. |
