I am guessing a good 50 to 75 percent of my hits did not register. Can't say for sure because of the flurry of action, but there were certainly a couple times where I smacked a standing target and it didn't seem to register. I did have some pretty sweet kills though. Also managed a nice PLC kill from maybe 100m or more away.

As a fellow rider- I found out from a lot of cairnites that.. is Cairnites right?... anyway, that motorbikes and tickets go hand in hand in Cairns. Unless you have no problem riding the speed limit.. which means I'd know all the cops on a first name basis, have a revolving license suspension rolling, and have to get a 2nd and 3rd job to pay the fines. but it would be totally worth it.

Or the juxtaposition of people getting left out? I'm not sure if you saw my earlier posts but for the entire time I've been playing Dust up until now I've successfully managed to hit the 6kSP daily bonus a grand total of 4 times since it was implemented (IIRC), with a record stretch of 8 days being the longest. (edit: as in logging in the first time on day one, last time on day eight). This was because my job demanded frequent travel for a few days at a time. But when I was home I'd have marathon sessions, sitting down and knocking out the weekly SP cap over the weekend every week for months at a time (not any more obviously). Am I less of a player or customer than the guy who logs in, plays a few games and leaves, even though our total hours played over the week may be the same? Now I'm no longer in that job and while I know it's not exactly normal, if I was still in that job the requirement to log in every day or couple of days in order to keep my warbarge functioning would frustrate me. I would only be getting a fraction out of it compared to others. I know it's hard to cater to everybody's lifestyle as we're all different, but I was surprised by this as my understanding is you were trying to help out the "casual, have job and kids and can only get a few hours in on the weekend" player. Any player with a job must be infinitely more valuable as a customer than the unemployed "poop sock" squad. Note: This is a repost as it was missed. We'll bang, OK?

This is very important. I have a few friends who are on the fence about playing Dust and I was really excited to tell them about the new content before I realized I had to tell them "Well, the thing is now you kind of have to log on every day or so..." Yeah, they're definitely not gonna listen to me now. A higher (base?) cap on the amount of warbarge produce that can be held at one time would go miles towards helping Dust not feel like Farmville in space.

Well the way the 1 and 3 day active boosters work already works towards helping the heavy weekend players, so there's that. And it's more the Warbarge/Loot stuff that's more of a concern for me. Pseudogenesis wrote: Farmville in space. Boom, perfectly put, this is exactly what I'm concerned about. The suggestion of slowly increasing rewards as the day goes on may be good. Would also pair well with boosters. This is the point where I go a little off track: Or something that could act like a subscription. It doesn't have to be much, just dollar or two a week that does something for you over time. There could be increasing rewards for keeping it going continuously (like at the end of each month get a bunch of war-barge parts and each consecutive month increases by 10%). I say a couple of dollars a week as you may also be buying boosters and things on top of that and if you're on a $15-20 dollar subscription, having extra things to pay for may frustrate you. If we do decide to introduce an optional subscription thing. Let's say it's $10 a month. But for that $10 you get like $20 worth of things you'd normally have to purchase plus some random loot, but it's a grab bag of things so there's no real telling what you might get (like strongboxes!). But there's at least a guarantee you'll get your moneys worth in Boosters and Aurum. Does that make sense? So proposal: $10 a month gets: $10 worth of SP Boosters (Standard and Omega, Active and Passive) and maybe a bit of Aurum. $10 worth of random Aurum gear (you may or may not be able to use) A few random items, maybe a couple of officer weapons, or warbarge parts. Basically a couple of days playtime worth of loot drops. Every consecutive month the random items drops get bigger (up to a certain point of course). Worst case scenario: you get your monies worth. Best case you get a freaken sweet deal for what you paid. Here's the sad part though. If we were talking Legion or if Dust was on PS4 I'd be signing up for $10 a month no problem... but where we are currently... We'll bang, OK?

Also, I would love a subscription system that grows its rewards.the longer you are.subscribed, similar to PS2. Sounds familiar. Then again, the response was mostly negative due to extreme tungsten foil hattery. As much as I would love to just subscribe and not have to log in and deal with the excruciating wait time for the Aurum store to load up, I seriously doubt that the general community wants anything to do with the subscription moniker for... Well. I genuinely have no idea. Something about having an unfair advantage of non-paying players or something. Have a suggestion for the Planetary Services Department? *Founder of AIV*

I would only be getting a fraction out of it compared to others. I know it's hard to cater to everybody's lifestyle as we're all different, but I was surprised by this as my understanding is you were trying to help out the "casual, have job and kids and can only get a few hours in on the weekend" player. Any player with a job must be infinitely more valuable as a customer than the unemployed "poop sock" squad. Note: This is a re-post as it was missed. Ugh, I would love to tie rewards to "played" minutes, rather than logons. Let me think about this, and no, I don't feel that you are less of a player/customer at all. Feel free to help me with non-exploitable fixes to rewarding crunch players that don't make the others feel that they don't need to log in regularly. Problem is that everytime you leave for work, I don't know if you are ever coming back :), maybe a subscription system might say "I am dedicated, reward me". Some people don't come back... It's weird that you should say such a thing. There's actually been a death in our dust community

Or the juxtaposition of people getting left out? I'm not sure if you saw my earlier posts but for the entire time I've been playing Dust up until now I've successfully managed to hit the 6kSP daily bonus a grand total of 4 times since it was implemented (IIRC), with a record stretch of 8 days being the longest. (edit: as in logging in the first time on day one, last time on day eight). This was because my job demanded frequent travel for a few days at a time. But when I was home I'd have marathon sessions, sitting down and knocking out the weekly SP cap over the weekend every week for months at a time (not any more obviously). Am I less of a player or customer than the guy who logs in, plays a few games and leaves, even though our total hours played over the week may be the same? Now I'm no longer in that job and while I know it's not exactly normal, if I was still in that job the requirement to log in every day or couple of days in order to keep my warbarge functioning would frustrate me.

Well, adding Components to post-match Salvage would do it (well, a bit at the mercy of the RNG gods, but still). A player who grinds 50 matches over the weekend and a player who fights 50 matches across the week would have the same (statistically averaged) Component pull. Relatedly, how about increasing the Subsystems' Capacity so that it's maxed at seven days instead of two?
