Go to a psychiatrist. Stop being such a violent person. |

-CCP needs to be able to expand the ability to beachhead with gen packs not remove them. All that would do is benefit the blue donut to force trench warfare on the front lines so they can farm isk behind it.
I'm am really starting to think most of you don't want to actually fight you just want to earn isk. PC is a failure in design because it rewards farming over fighting.
smh @ girls who just want to play Farmville on ps3 Well, noone is asking to farm ISK. I'm asking to promote more fights with more corps involved. Smaller and/or less skilled corps are trying to fight and get into PC but they cant because all that are left are bigger corps/organizations and better talented corps. It's easy to ask for fights and call other corps cowards when you're the top corp in the game with allstar shooters. A corp with an average of 0.89KDR knows that they cant compete with a corp that has a 5KDR. They would rather fight a battle where they feel they have a chance of winning. But the way things are now with limited districts, that won't happen. Hey imps support small corps to join PC all the time. We have no interest in attacking the small/less skilled/noob corps and we sell our districts to them to try and get them involved. Maybe if you ACTUALLY cared about these corp you could take some districts and offer it to them yourself. Just like imps have. As bad as the mechanics are you can still easily transfer districts and we have done it many of times so far. What is the issue is that very few corps actually want to fight in PC. The problem is there are 3 main groups cronos/unclaimed/rofl and they have no issue picking on the new/little guy because they aren't going to fight each other. So soon as the new guy joins in they have only big power blocks to fight against. This is the product of ccp bad PC design and unless they drastically change it there is absolutely nothing you or anyone can do about it.
Well, I actually think that it's cool what you (Imp) do if is it true. Sell district. But even if you do that, there is big alliances that would jump over the new neighbors and **** them. And that's not that cool.
I mean, besides Planetary Conquest, What kind of activites does a Corporation have? ( I have not idea if I write it right ). There is not much to do. And then, players, after learn the game, get some skill, etc, they want to get into the "end game" of Dust. And let be honest, Planetary Conquest is not that easy to play. You need a "good" corp to get successful, and that's not easy.
So, have can a new corp keep their players if it can't offer anaything but Ambush/Skirmish. Players won't stay there so much longer if they can't play what their want. Besides, some players, are faster than others to learn and get better, so people will see that they got good in the game while their corp mates are still learning, and that makes you think, "Do I need to stay here? "Or do I have an oportunity to apply for Imperfects?"
You can join to an alliance, but there is not so much place for "little/new corps" in the "big alliances". I mean... At least Negative Feedback is taking the new corps, which I don't think so.
So, developing a new corp, it's not that easy and funny.
Particullary, I think CCP needs to work more in this aspect (after fix the bag of bugs that the game has) if they want to call Dust a fps/MMO instead call him just a FPS.

I'm sure as the player population grows, CCP will add more planets/districts. Then maybe other corps will have a chance for a piece of the pie.
My one suggestion to CCP would be to change the timers to a range, not just a hard time.
As jump said: right now all you have to do is sequence your timers properly and you can hold a very large number of districts with just a small group of players. (assuming they're good enough to keep winning)
If you change the timers to a range. Maybe something like a 3-hour window. This leaves a district vulnerable for longer, meaning that it would take more players to defend the same number of districts, since players cant just log-in just in time for a scheduled match. They would be on-the-fly. Somebody decides to attack at any point during the window. Your corp gets a 10min warning. You have 10min to get a group together. This probably wouldn't be problem if you only have one or two districts. However if you have 10 districsts, all with a 3-hour window, it takes a lot of manpower to defend those.
"Corps/Clans can still participate in Dust. They can group up and do pubs"
Come on men, you're not talking serious.
"I'm sure as the player population grows, CCP will add more planets/districts"
They said the same about matchmaking since the first build of the closed beta. Do you see any kind of one? Because I don't.
The game is cool, very cool. But you can't say that participate in Dust as a corp, is play pub matches against some groups plus randoms. It's ok if people start to admit that Dust is a "MMO" just for a few of players, and the rest, just playing a monotone FPS trying to unblock some skill.
