everyone who played yesterday gets punished, punishing players for playing your game is stupid, if people played more then others good for them.
I got about 50k sp yesterday just from casually playing and i'm being punished as much as anyone else.
I don't really care what happens I just want it fixed immediately. |

As for being unable to log into DUST, that was an issue due to a firewall configuration issue. EVE players also were unable to log in. We've fixed it and now everyone can log in as normal.
what?
how do you plan to track the sp earned by the players already at the cap?
what if today was the only day some players had to play and thus get sp?
sucks to be them? |

Not going to happen and by demanding it be fixed immediately you sound like an ass. It was a mistake and it can't be undone. You're not being 'punished', so don't start that garbage. You know exactly where you can stick that nonsense so go ahead and cram it on in there.
**** off
I hate entitled ass holes like you.
if the devs say something they should follow through, plain and simple. it's not hard to brign the server down for an hour or two, and set the sp cap too X amount they do it every wednesday systems are in place.
what will take time and have people miss days of this event is trying to calculate so nobody gets any extra sp, and of course because of that we will all miss out on days of said event. |

the bug is here because the multiplied our remaining instead of adding the total.
if it was Wednesday our total would of been at max and the problem would not of occurred.

Source?
logic....
our caps were tripled, everyone has stated as much and it's obvious.
the devs stated in multiple threads it was intended to be additional.
if the devs say they are giving an apple, but instead give a banana, it's obvious to see what the problem is.
now if you apply the problem to when every player would of had full sp after the reset we would get an ideal result and no problems would of occured. since it was applied previously directly after the reset, it's likely why we didn't have a problem last time. |

funny thing is today was indeed the last day of my booster by pure coincidence, I'll just start another but it's funny I guess, I 'd be pissed if I wasn't planning to get another one. |

There is no reason to create the confusion that this event caused and the potential for bugs which drains your resources that could be better spent on other items by just thinking ahead. Lesson learned.... right?

Altina McAlterson wrote:Here's how I see the situation and I'm curious to understand exactly where the disconnect is what I'm thinking and what everyone else has been thinking because every time I tried to understand what people thought was going on the more confused I got.
So as I see it the weekly cap is 190,400 SP. On Wednesday if earned that much SP you would hit the soft cap and earn 1 SP per WP up to 1,000 SP. On Thursday the weekly cap would be increased from 190,400 to 571,200 SP. At this point there is no "remainder" or anything else. There's simply more SP to be earned before you hit the cap. Same as if you don't cap out in a single day and come back the next day. You continue earning SP until you hit the cap, it's just that simple. So no matter what day you earned the SP, how much you got this day vs that day or whether or not the rate has been tripled yet or not makes absolutely no difference. The absolute maximum every player will earn before hitting the soft cap is 571,200 SP. So would someone explain how you could possibly "lose" SP by playing on Wednesday?
And as for the "multiplying" or "adding" thing I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about at all. The only thing being multiplied is the amount of SP you get per WP (maybe time in match as well, don't know and doesn't matter). For example after hitting the soft cap you have to earn at least 1,000 WP to earn the full 1,000 SP. During the triple SP event you would only have to earn 334 WP to earn 1,000 SP since 334 x 3 = 1,002.
And I'm assuming that it wouldn't make a difference whether they started on Wednesday or Thursday is because all they were doing is changing those two values. However, those values most likely occur several times in the game's code and interact with multiple aspects of the software. One of those interactions was overlooked or entered incorrectly or already contained an unnoticed bug that is causing the behavior we're seeing. Or maybe each instance on those values needed to be changed manually and one got missed or entered incorrectly.
So anyway, that's just how I see this whole situation and the reason I feel like I'm on a different page than a lot of players.
i'll try to explain it again then.
As mentioned by you the standard weekly cap is 190,400 sp. with this event the target cap for the week is to be set at 571,200. This is exactly triple the standard weekly cap
So let's say I earned 90400 sp on Wednesday bringing my remaining sp to earn for the week down to 100k sp.
what should of occured as per the devs comments is as follows 380800 sp should of been added to our caps. bringing the total sp remaining to 480800sp
instead the 100k was tripled bringing the remaining sp total to 300k.
hopefully you can follow this logic so far.
so now let's step back to immediately after Wednesdays reset.
I now have 190,400 sp cap remaining
multiplied by 3 which is what occured
190400 x 3 = 571,200sp which is the weekly target
additive results is as follows
190400 + 380800 = 571,200sp which again is the weekly target.
as you can see if done after the patch their is no chance for the problem to occur, and we can look at the previous triple sp event to see that no problem occurred during that event, when applied immediately after down time. |

it doesn't increase the post game results.
it does in fact make it easier to get 1500sp though.
if you get 500wp you will still get 1500sp post game. |

Its BS and u know it. " Triple SP Event Starting on July 4 and ending on July 10, we will be hosting a Triple Skill Point Event for all players who log in to play. During the event period your skill point cap will be tripled and your skill booster bonuses are stacked with the triple skill point reward. DonGÇÖt miss out on this great opportunity to earn extra skill points and get that level 5 skill that youGÇÖve been training for. Here's some details on the Triple SP event that you will want to know: The weekly SP cap will reset on Wednesday, July 3rd as usual after DT. If you hit your weekly in the first day then you will still be eligible for the extended SP cap for the event on Thursday."
I'm just telling you how it operated last time we had this event, and it's not a bug it's intentional.
the weekly cap is increased by 3x, not each individual games cap.
past that we do in fact still earn triple sp in the games, but only up to our caps. |

You nerf everything, then people btich and complain so you buff it back. You promise 3x so and didn't come through as promised. Yes you are working on it but, myself, as a gamer that had such high hopes for the game feel as if you have had enough time and going to step back from the game until you get your shti figured out.
meh I'm upset at it, but I'm not that mad.
seriously it's just a simple mistake that will be resolved tomorrow(( maybe..... )), it could and should of been resolved as soon as the mistake was noticed, and this is honestly going to screw some people over, but really it's just another small annoyance. |

If you have 90,400 SP and the cap is 571,400 that leaves 481,000 SP left before you hit the cap. Could you explain exactly why you think it isn't that?
I've got nothing else to do at the moment and I really do enjoy a good debate but honestly trying to sort out what you meant with the arithmetic and multiplication is just too much for volunteer work so I'll just leave it here.
because the total weekly cap is 571200sp not 571400sp |
