You may be on the wrong side of the war, but I agree with you on this.
FW NEEDS to be more than just glorified pubs. Until that happens it will be Fuct Warfare.
1) Defenders should already hold points since they are the DEFENDERS!!!!
2) Attackers should be able to initiate an attack on any enemy faction held District through FW not PC.
These two things need to happen to get FW away from being glorified pubs. In Eve FW, CCP provides plexes in all FW systems, in Dust, these would be Districts. In Eve FW, CCP DOESN'T open plexes for you, you see what plexes are available in the system and choose which one you want to run.
If we decide to attack a particular District, then the enemy faction should be given the option to defend; if they don't, we simply play a one-sided match until the enemy defenses are eradicated.
We also need to be allowed to enlist as Faction Soldiers and not just as pure Mercs. I am not saying that we shouldn't be allowed to be pure Mercs, though the option to be a bonafide Faction Soldier should be there.
I've got a lot more ideas, though I don't really have the time to put them all down here. |

what i think dust really really really needs is a player based ranking system. and then allow EvE players in FW or PC to sponsor attacks where only certain ratings are allowed. as after their might be times you want to send a squad of 0's to their death as a distraction :P
If there is any ranking system in FW, it should be modeled after the FW ranking systems already present in Eve. However, it should also draw a few things from (wait for it......) MAG's leadership model.
(Using Minmatar Ranks for example)
Make it so that you need to be at least a Spike Lieutenant (2nd rank) to be a Squad Leader in FW battles. Any WP gained while being a SL in a FW battle should not only be applied to your lifetime WP stat, it should also be used to create a new stat that works to help you rank up in FW.
Give Venge Captains (4th rank) the ability to function similar to a PL from MAG (only 1 per side though; at least until we get larger battles). Let their orb pool accumulate from everyone on their team. Perhaps give them some added capabilities (that would be available to others in PC too) that allow them to mobilize their teams MCC, maybe deploying some friendly installations.
I know you were probably meaning something more like a metacritic ranking system, but tbh, I think that would be way too easily gamed. As it stands now, we've still got protoscrub losers running about in pubs stroking their ego because they're l337 g0dz with their 27.18074298370929035479509 KDRs and then you've also got guys like me who are willing to stick their free suit wearing dicks in a meatgrinder just to get the SP and whatever ISK we get (I don't give two squirts of **** about KDR and I'm willing to throw mine in the bin if need be, I can find self-worth elsewhere).
Besides, most people already probably rank and judge people based on things as easily gamed as KD and WP, no sense in giving people another stat to game. |
