A man who plans for the future is ready for the present.

CPM is young, but that does not mean one cannot or should not plan for the future.

How about wait to see if they even stick around long enough first?

Some of those guys claim to be leaving on PS4 launch if dust doesn't drastically improve and PC stops sucking. Jumping the gun isn't planning a head - it's closer to theorycrafting who'd be the current best choice.

Which I'm all for discussing.

Sha might win the vote of 'white flag waver of the year' but thats about it

Gimble is who?

Cubs is who?

I nominate AlmightyStatius.

cubs belong to team player, which is a corp i love...

P.s. I love team players

Mind you all this is a lot of work.

I CEO of SVER True Blood nominate for the next class of CPM


Mavado V Noriega CEO of SyN - LEader of EoN Alliance

If you view the birth of P/C to its current state this man an his alliance has done more an controls more then any other organization to date.

He has actively been engaged in the first TRUE War of Dust against Cronos. He has played it politically as well as military. He has show diplomatic prowess in his negotiations through P/C .

Consistently he has avoided arguments on the forums but prefers to contact the aggressor directly to properly communicate.

Now let it be know SyN an STB have had a healthy rivalry since closed beta. I have had the privileged of going head to head with MN an his associates multiple times, so my nomination here is based off of work ethic shown an applied knowledge.





ChicaagoeCubs4eVER- Arguably one of the best F/C's to date an capable of unifying large numbers of opinionated personalities.

As the IMPS were Yang an all that was evil an wrong, Cubs an his unit are Ying. He has proven a vast business view on the matter of P/C. He is monopolizing the current format which shows his ability to learn through progression. He has yet to show weakness an continues to improve as a leader on an off the field.




GimbleB from Boots On THe GRound - This man is one of the only people out there that in my opinion truthfully enjoy the full aspect of this game. he has spent countless hours on his show discussing faults plots an accomplishments pre open beta release. An since PC has started he has dedicated an entire portion of his work to the discussion an coverage of P/C



Sha Kharn Clone - Before anyone jumps down my throat read an comprehend

He was the original Dust 514 Genghis Khan, he was napoleon. He had the vision of blue an wished to be the sea that covered PC. Ambition like this is necessary for us as gamers. Dream big an give CCP a chance to amaze us. WIth Sha's ambition an vision, the leadership of CUBS the brains of Madavo an the energy of Gimbett. I feel that they would make a great class for CPM.



I obviously wanted the position an wished I had been chosen, but nominating myself is a conflict of interest. An in my absence I feel that these men would handle the job to the best of there abilities an rival my own.


So even if this is nothing more but a bump to your egos, when nominations are allowed, know that you have my support an the support of my affiants.

lolmavado what a tank scrub

Are you really that buthurt about PC? We're gone now, you can capture stuff again.

Now I am sure this is controversial for some, but I'd nominate The dark cloud. You may not agree with Cloud all the time, but Cloud understands the game.

I vote RegNyM

Mind sharing with us your workload so we can see that fact for ourselves? :)

Mind you all this is a lot of work.

and Last Night I got reminded why my familiarity with Eve Online was important as the discussion with the CSM on a number of subjects concerning the Dust Eve link came into question.

Players leaving everyday because of slow respecs, terrible communication and overall terrible FPS mechanics, and CPM are talking about the Dust - EVE link, I think I just found our problem.

I would suggest you to talk about this later in time once you can constructively review how the current council has done for the DUST community and ultimately have an objective view on what is needed as a council member to be pro active. It is still all new and very recent, so let's give it all a bit more time before even thinking about what's next.

Do you guys have to just look for any reason to ****post on the CPM? Wait, never mind, it must be in the rule book somewhere.

Anyway, there certainly was discussion on the forum about the EVE/Dust link the other day. Strangely, can you imagine, maybe some parts of CCP are looking at future items while other parts are working on current issues. No, can't be.

I really wish some of you numskulls could stop taking it so personally when your own particular hot button topic is not the only thing that other people think about.

It's pitiful to watch.

You know what is pitiful to watch? This game DIE.

wait a minute, can we elect people to this thing? I was pretty sure it was going to remain "as is" until someone resigned or something :P

...But in that case, I hereby nominate Arron Rift to become a member of CPM, simply because he's awesome :D

:P

Lol future items... that's all this game runs on. Dreams of what can be done 2-3 years from now.

lol...DUST / EVE link...

yea that's the problem with the game guys! Connecting them would save DUST and stop people from leaving

To be frank, the majority of DUST players don't care about EVE at this point. People just want the game to play at 30fps, to be able to hit what you're aiming at, and not play a slide show of a game cuz you didn't reset.

Are we gonna get an update on those issues mr CPM?

presentation meant more to CCP than actually gettin the right ppl the 1st time.
only good ppl on there atm is Kain and Caz

Funny thing is though I get to see all the problems not just one or two or few full, the entire damn picture and you are looking at this problem the entirely wrong way, to bring things closer to context lets use a favorite tool the developers love using.

Player story.

"I feel nothing significant or when I participate in Planetary Conquest"
-Dust 514 player.

Is a very terrible story I would not like to be true but it is currently.

Here is another story

"Dust 514? What's that? Why should I care?"
-Eve Player

is another terrible story that needs rectifying.

So how do we fix that? We write a better story than currently and pursue that though various means.

"I feel I am apart of something bigger than myself and this game when I participate in Planetary Conquest. That my efforts means something for myself, my friends, my allies, and my enemies and they have a lasting impact beyond the borders of this game."

While a fantasy it's a dream worth pursuing, after all Eve has done this countless of times.

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/07/arts/07eve.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

Is one example. As it stands now there is no reason to do factional warfare and no reason to do planetary conquest as a Dust 514 player and furthermore there is probably not any reason to continue playing beyond SP cap and the newer story I am getting now a days people are no longer hitting their caps. Fixing controls is not going to make this game fun or worth continue playing, there have been dozens of shooters that had controls just right and never got anywhere worth of mention.

I also cannot worry about the core at the moment because CCP is very committed to that and that the CPM, are not game designers. We cannot fix that for them or for you. CCP will have to do the fixing and the most we, the community, can do is remind them it is still broken or less than stellar. In other words why waste so much time beating CCP with a dead horse? There are afterall, there quite a few fish to fry though many are not particularly bigger.

Either way its one of the many things and issues facing Dust and CPM has to tackle all aspects of the game and the CPM cannot just simply twiddle its thumbs while CCP fixes one part of the game at a time so like a hydra we have to branch out an attack every issues on every front when possible.

As you put it, nobody in Dust cares about Eve. A counter story to tell you back is nobody cares about Dust carries a far heavier weight. The link needs to start being built in some form or fashion quicker, the earlier you guys start getting hired by Eve players the quicker eve players can start affording to do our logistics the better your lives are all going to get.

They went to the IRC and picked all the suckups, with the exceptions you mentioned.

I'd vote for you, Mavado/Numberz, any day of the week.

I disagree with the separation clause and I am trying to get CCP to see as well.

Now couple sad facts I know in my heart to be true.

1. If Dust dies and well who gives a damn right?

2. If Eve dies somehow, Dust in itself is effectively dead to that end.

This is why the link should be pursued and not be that feared and I think Team Gridlock is beginning to take bolder steps based on what I have seen. Quite a few options are on the table and the thing we must be careful about is not to kill eve. It doesn't take much to destroy the economy over there.

If DUST dies, it has no effect on EVE. If EVE dies, then why bother with DUST... but EVE is nowhere near to dying though.

I don't know if you're implying that connecting the 2 games will save DUST somehow, but if that's what you're saying, I disagree.

It won't hurt DUST, but it's not gonna be the saving grace of it. Not by a long shot. If people don't wanna play the game, what difference is connecting them going to make.

I sense this is going to be a conversation that will end in circles.

I'm just gonna say that long term goals is well and good, but at this point, right now, nobody cares what's coming 2-3 years from now man. People wanna know when the rest of the suits coming, will the aiming ever be fixed, are dropships gonna be fixed, when are proto tanks coming, when are other racial weapons coming.

Short term goals CCP needs to communicate with people cuz guess what, PS4 is right around the corner. Thousands of people are absent cuz they playing TLoU... imagine when next gen games come out.

From a business perspective, you can't entice a rabbit without a carrot on a string. What do you think a rabbit will go for? The carrot a mile down the road, or the one that's dangling right there.

my thoughts exactly.
when i watch some of the current CPM 2 questions pop in my head and i know im not the only 1 to ask themselves these same 2 questions

1. Who are u?
2. What have u contributed to helping this game grow?

nova helps but he's also been on the suckup side alot

Mavado would be great because he's a vehicle user. CPM needs a vehicle rep.

Wish more people could see this. Right now CCP has to fix the short term picture because if they do not, there won't be a long term.

And I am not too worried about the right now picture, its entirely on CCP's table and front stove and you and I should be both content on what is cooking because it does reflect everyone's complaints about the game. CCP does know its a problem and they're doing their best to resolve it to the point that many features I was expecting by end of the year may have been written off because of the shift in gears.

I know the NDA is killing my own argument but lets say I knew about 1.2 specific features for a long while a code lock was some time back and CCP has been working on the whatever the next patch ever since then to which I will say may or may not be Uprising 1.3 or the next 'expansion'.

While it may seem appropriate to blame Sony, CCP and Sony are working together to improve the entire process because unlike any other game current on the PS3, we are the only one providing the MMO environment needed for the many games planning to be on the PS4 so Sony is learning much about how MMO and F2P games work on consoles just as much as CCP is learning on how to make a shooter.

It's posts like these that remind me that you know more than I do. Mavado or Lance going off here is simply unacceptable because we are not here to judge you. We may be frustrated with this game, and may have our own ideas about how to run it, but that doesn't mean we should abandon respect and goodwill for others. I respect them both a lot, they both have made great contributions to the game, but slamming the CPM regardless of its truthfulness should be avoided here on the forums. I say this and hope I'm in the right to defend you, I know you and Kane trawl through posts especially now that I can see your names liking the 2 threads I put a lot of work into with these shiny new notifications and that helps. You must know it's frustrating to be so oblivious to your schedule and efficacy.

Should just nominate me.

I hate everyone on the forums, think the current CPM are suckups, and I'm fairly convinced that the majority of CCP Shanghai have absolutely no clue what the hell they are doing.

Burning bridges for a better tomorrow. Vote Himiko.

tbh I have made a couple jabs at the CPM in the past, but I didn't in any of my posts in this thread. I'm not disrespecting anyone on a personal lvl.

My opinions are always based on honesty and some insight into what I'm talking about. My whole point was the communication about short term goals is **** poor from CCP, and cuz the CPM is suppose to be the link between us and them, poor IWS is the recipient of my reply.

IWS told me all the work the CPM does, and I told him I never said I was ungrateful, but being part of the CPM is being part of the community, and unfortunately that involves getting down and dirty with us normal folk.

As long as I don't get personal with people, there's no reason to get offended. I'm an honest, frank, cynical individual, so my opinions come across harsh sometimes. I'm always respectful to people that offer the same courtesy.

I rescind and apologize. I respect your integrity, and called you out prematurely. I think it got a bit passionate in here and that's all good. Mavado should be the next CPM though, and I'd hate to see him damage his chances by losing even a smidgeon of the diplomacy/tact I know he has. I can't remember the last time a CPM lost it and attacked another person on the forums, or said something like what Mavado said about the CPM0 getting the wrong people. Like I'd tell Nikia, you can and should be able to say those things, but be nice about it. Much like when you're best friend wraps his arms around your shoulder and calls you an *******, you know he just basically just called you an *******, but he said it in such a respectful way it didn't lose any of its efficacy.

wel I leave for work for a few hours an BAM this thread blow sup.. Good

I further nominate that Russian dude who keeps coming the the English forums asking CCP to read the Russian forums.

Love that guy.

Mavado is a tanker, and a good one at that, so he gets my vote, and likely, the vote of every pilot in the game.

unfortunately I haven't gone up against him

Where did i disrespect the cpm?
