Hey guys,

We are currently working on roles for DUST corporations and I wanted to gather some feedback from you guys on the roles we will release with.

Currently we are looking at:

• CEO: There can only be one. Does everything.
• Director: Can do everything the CEO can except assign the director role. Only the CEO can do that. CEO and directors are the only ones to assign any roles at all.
• Accountant: Has full access to the mercenary wallet.
• Personal Director: Can accept applications to the corporation.
• Chief Operations Officer: Deal with all DUST logistics. For now this is planetary conquest, but may later involve other things.
• Squad Leader: Can join corporation battles solo or as squad leader with squad members that do not include corporation members.
• Squad Member: Can join corporation battles solo.

The squad member role is being debated highly, we don't really think it adds a whole lot when everyone will generally be joining in squads anyways.

I would love to hear what you guys think of these roles, their names, and their purposes.

As a CEO of a large corp, THANK YOU FOR EXPANDING ON THE DUST ROLES SYSTEM.

All of my concerns with corp management are addressed with this. Squad member flag is probably not needed.

Would it be possible to create a secondary DUST wallet? I'd like to be able to have a MASTER WALLET that only the CEO and full directors can access (where corp donations and passive income go), and a secondary wallet that the rest of the accountants can access for reimbursements, gen packs, etc. I'd like to not have to hold the ISK on a character, and if an accountant goes rogue it minimizes the damage done.

Squad member should be included.

What happens when a squad member's voice coms bug out in the warbarge and they have to reset?

What happens when a squad member gets stuck on the loading screen and has to reset?

What happens when a reserve needs to join because someone has DC'd?

In each case a squad leader (who has a stack of additional responsibilities) would have to leave and bring them into the battle.

Either you include the squad member role or a lot of corps will resort to giving everyone squad leader roles purely because CCP couldn't be bothered to implement another role.

In regards to Chief Operations Officer, what is the purpose of this role? It would have capabilities to reset timers, change structures, attack districts etc? If buying clone packs it would require wallet access, yes?

I would like to see the ability to assign a combination of roles to a character and have roles specifically for each aspect of management such that if there were an individual who was an accountant they could also be assigned squad leader roles.

I think squad member is a bit unneccessary. almost everyone will be going in in a squad, but it's case of better to have it and not need it so if it's already made I don't see a problem with it. Just put it at the bottom of the list so it doesn't get in the way of the important ****.

It is quite necessary. You need a way to gate off completely new members until they prove themselves worthy. Big corps that own lots of districts have tons of applications and if they want to grow their numbers safely, there needs to be a switch to turn on when they are ready to participate in a PC battle. Yet, we don't want to give people "Squad Leader" because some people are just better soldiers than they are leaders.

Squad leader rights can be given to non-squad leaders so that they can enter PC battles freely. It don't imagine it requires you must actively be squad leader to enter PC.
In practice, I imagine that most corps will use the Squad Leader function much more than the Squad Member as its easier to manage small trusted networks than having widespread PC rights.

Why would I have 300 squad members who can all join battles when I could have 30 bringing others in as needed?
Until there's a kick from warbarge I'd rather keep it simple. Even with a kick option, does anyone want the potential trouble?

...so he can rejoin the battle after an accidental disconnection.

How about an Assets Manager? Their job is to manage corporation-owned vehicles, weapons, dropsuits, etc. and create fittings for them.

In my opinion, the accountant should have viewable access to the wallet but cannot withdraw funds.

This allows people to work on behalf of the corp but not be a risk.

Roles should escalate in terms of their ability to have control over the corp. It should be a tiered system that starts of with being able to view and then being able to interact/control.

That is, generally, how it works in EVE so there is no reason for it to not work that way in DUST.

Accountant: Has full access to the mercenary wallet.

Do you mean Corporation wallet? Because I don't want anybody having any access to my wallet.

Squad member is optional, so is Squad Leader if you don't want to use them and only allow directors to handle battles. It's all about how you can use it and honestly I could use both options based on the way my corporation is ran.

Squad Leaders can pick up from the Reserve if there's any seats left while the Squad members of said squad can go in without the need of the Squad Leader.

It makes things go faster but it also can make things a bit clumsy. I say we keep it and let CEOs decide if they'll want to use them.

Sweet - so can I get my Personnel Director to assign me a Personal Director?

Platoons, yes please.

I'd love to be able to join a squad and (queue up to) join the battle that they are in. Related - why do we have to return to the MQ after each battle? Why can't we just stay in a battle type, like other FPS games (CoD, BF3, etc).

I like your suggestion of title for the 'Squad Leader' role: Combat Officer fits nicely.

An update! :D

Personnel Director will remain being named that as it's name matches the EVE name, and it will be the same role between the two games. This goes for accountant as well.

Chief Operations Officer does need a new name, something that makes it more obvious as a DUST specific role. Possibly terrestrial logistics officer.

I would also like to come up with a new name for the squad leader role since there are actual squad leaders for squads. That could be confusing.

We are looking at making it so that if you are in a match and invite someone to your squad it pulls them directly into the match. If we can do this then I believe we can remove the need for the squad members role. Removing the squad member role is really nice because it means having to manage less roles. And when only directors and the CEO can assign/remove them this becomes important. We should try and get all the functionality needed into the other roles. If we have terrestrial logistics officer for managing planetary conquest stuff, what about terrestrial combat officer for squad leader stuff?

Also, as a tid bit, while we are not actually working on it yet we are thinking about a new feature... well not really new just expanding on squads. Platoons. >:)

In land armies, especially US units, a quartermaster is either an individual soldier or a unit who specializes in distributing supplies and provisions to troops. The senior unit, post or base supply officer is customarily referred to as "the quartermaster". Often the quartermaster serves as the S-4 in US Army, US Marine Corps units and NATO units.

In many navies, quartermaster is a non-commissioned officer (petty officer) rank for personnel responsible for their ship's navigation. In the US Navy, the quartermaster is responsible for the ship's navigation and maintenance of nautical charts and maps. Aboard merchant ships, quartermasters are usually the Able Seamen assigned to bridge watches. A naval quartermaster's main task is to steer the ship and apply the helm orders given by the Captain or watch officers.

T_T Please keep Squad Members. If a CEO can't handle assigning this role to a large group of players they'll organize their structure. Like for example:

A corp with 100 mercenaries = 10 Squad Leaders + 0 Squad Members
A corp with 10 mercenaries = 0 Squad Leaders + 10 Squad Members

Of course these^ are only examples and some corporation's have more complex structures than just applying a squad leader to every squad of 10 or making all of it's members squad members.

Of course there are obvious uses of the Squad leader role that you have probably thought of such as picking up alliance players, or mercenaries who are hired for the job so I'd like to talk more about Squad Members.

Squad Member Role Can Aid a Corp by:

1. Allowing a certain group of players to have first response action.
2. Label members as trusted for battles.
3. Cutting down time for adding members to a battle.
4. Allowing only your members to join battles(If you're not using Squad Leader).

That requires the secondary market to be activated, and that's more or less what your Logistics guy does as the COO.

Recruiter - Differs from Personnel Director as Recruiter can only approve apps while a Personnel Director can both approve apps and remove players.

Since Corporate Roles are being worked on, does this mean we will be getting Corporate Assets sooner or later?

Sooner is better than later tbh.

Okay let me re-iterate what I meant on my earlier post.

Each Corporation is their own, they have their own agenda, their own character, their own views. Allow corporations to name their seats to their liking to fit their "mission statement". A lot of current corporations in real life have creative ways of naming positions, especially higher ranking. I think giving us that option would be a fun and even modern day way to address the personnel titles.

We already can name our corporations, alliances and give a description of what the corporation is about and stands for. Let them have the ability to name these titles ourselves!

It won't matter for now, but just a note: somewhere down the line you're going to give us back the ability to spawn private/controlled battle instances (useful for internal corp training, pride matches between corps, arenas for entertainment corps, etc.).
When you give us that feature, I know a lot of corps will want a specific role for who's allowed to spawn those.


Also, some people have mentioned here that they want to give these roles custom names internally. In a related vein, I'd like to see maybe in addition to roles something like a title system. Some important corp positions don't actually need special access to unique tools to fulfill their duties, but it is very nice for them to be specifically designated as filling that position.
Some examples are: diplomat, teacher, communications officer, propaganda officer...
I'm certain many corps would like to give the people who fulfill those positions the metaphorical badge on their jacket showing to everyone who they are and what they do.

Am I to understand that the lack of any mention of an Armoury Officer means that corporation armouries are not even been considered yet?

What if CCP implemented sort of a role "fitting" system. CEOs/directors could create a position with a name of their choosing, and edit it using a checkbox list of permissions, i.e. Can join PC battle, can bring Squad to PC battle, can access corp wallet, etc. This would allow corps to customize roles to their liking, to include custom titles for individuals with roles pertaining more to the metagame.

I'm not sure how the current director/CEO permissions work on the backend, so this may not be practical. I'm just envisioning something like user/group permissions settings on a windows system.

As a CEO of a large corp, THANK YOU FOR EXPANDING ON THE DUST ROLES SYSTEM.

All of my concerns with corp management are addressed with this. Squad member flag is probably not needed.

Would it be possible to create a secondary DUST wallet? I'd like to be able to have a MASTER WALLET that only the CEO and full directors can access (where corp donations and passive income go), and a secondary wallet that the rest of the accountants can access for reimbursements, gen packs, etc. I'd like to not have to hold the ISK on a character, and if an accountant goes rogue it minimizes the damage done.

Yeah this was something I was thinking about too. Permissions would allow corps to custom build the roles they want. Giving corps more control in this space is probably a good thing.
Plus, it'd solve the issue regarding the "Squad Member" role. Corps that want it can build it; those that don't, don't.


I'd like to echo the sentiment that there needs to be fine grain control over the accountant role, and/or a way to allow corps to have multiple wallets going ("Primary Funds","Petty Cash", etc). Without this, expect to see corps making holding-corps again so they can have the security and control they desire.

Sorry I DON'T agree I DON'T want to take on a director from another Corp when his directorship role has been totally different to the way my director runs things. And if you gave every role a different name how would other Corp CEO's know what your member roles are. Sorry but that would be a mistake.

While some of these ideas are over-complicated, most of this thread is clamoring for some amount of customization. Why would two directors running things differently affect you? Why would other corp CEOs care what individual members in another corp do? Why did you need 3 posts to write all that out?

For my two cents, the squad member role should be kept in; its a simple way to remove the need for all these holding corps everyone is using to prevent AWOXing. Being able to re-name stock roles would probably be enough to keep most of those asking for customization happy, even if they can't fine tune their attributes.

Perhaps taking the pre-defined roles in the OP and assigning a meta-level to each, (CEO=10, Director=9, squad member=1, no position=0) then allow the corp to copy and rename each to assign out to its players. CCPs servers (and people like Teddy Tough Guy) can just look at the Meta-level to know what someones actual role/abilities are, while the corp can come up with whatever crazy misspelled titles it wants. A corp that wants separate titles for "recruiter" and "training officer," but doesn't care if they have the same abilities, could have both just be re-named "personnel directors." All would be the same Meta-level, so to the system it doesn't get too complex.

@FoxFour



Is this something you can answer?

Thanks for the reply.

It is not something under active development, it is on our backlog but has not been put on our roadmap.

Will we have ranks for individual squad members as well? like private first class ect ect ? Sorry if this has been addressed haven't actually read all of the post tiered.

Why would you need military ranks within squad roles? Why would you use military ranks for a corporation? I've got news for all you 14 year old military-wannabe's out there: mercenaries don't care about stripes on your arm or shiny things on your collar.

Of course, if we get to rename positions as been suggested by a few people in this thread, you can base your role titles off of your JROTC unit and real world veterans will roll their eyes at you.

can we have a role without the corp and alliance mail spam?

Depends on the role and the spam you are talking about...

How about just a ******* delete all button lol in the mail system i can give you the c# code for it if you like.....

Depends on the role and the spam you are talking about...

If you would be so kind as to post that on PasteBin I will be sure to copy and paste it right into our code base for you.

Multiple roles can be assigned.

is it possible this coming in Uprising 1.2? Im really excited for this. Being a CEO of a new corp that has grown considerably in the last few weeks I would love a more detailed ranking system. Right now Im using this very system but its more ghost ranks than anything, I would love to actually grant the title to people so they can feel like they are somebody and not just a fake director haha. Thanks Fox for reading

No, not in 1.2 sorry. Later this year though.

The squad member role is being debated highly, we don't really think it adds a whole lot when everyone will generally be joining in squads anyways.

I would love to hear what you guys think of these roles, their names, and their purposes.

Depends on the role and the spam you are talking about...

I would like to see the ability to assign a combination of roles to a character and have roles specifically for each aspect of management such that if there were an individual who was an accountant they could also be assigned squad leader roles.

As a CEO of a large corp, THANK YOU FOR EXPANDING ON THE DUST ROLES SYSTEM.

All of my concerns with corp management are addressed with this. Squad member flag is probably not needed.

Would it be possible to create a secondary DUST wallet? I'd like to be able to have a MASTER WALLET that only the CEO and full directors can access (where corp donations and passive income go), and a secondary wallet that the rest of the accountants can access for reimbursements, gen packs, etc. I'd like to not have to hold the ISK on a character, and if an accountant goes rogue it minimizes the damage done.
