Wait closed beta tourney had awesome rewards?

250 million ISK to the corp - fair enough, this was kind of big back then I would guess, although from what I heard when we finally got it they placed it in our EVE side wallet, and we didn't get it back after the next reset.

Black Ops LAV BPO - yes, this was maybe the biggest reward, except that we did not get a BO BPO, but a standard tiered LAV BPO instead.

50 copies of unique Officer Assault suits, ARs, SMGs and Snipers - fair enough, a good reward. We got the 50 unique suits, SMGs and Snipers. The Snipers were barely better than the Prototype though and did almost 100 less damage than the Thale's. The ARs were the Balac's, so not really unique.

I don't think there were any other rewards.

Oh wait, there was a match against the devs which we haven't received yet.

Is that where the Balacs SMG came from? I remember seeing Alldin running one once.

Yeah, the three weapons were Balac's. The SMG was slightly worse than the Cala's I think, but they were still okay.

Black ops LAV BPO by itself is better than the booster or the 40 crap tanks.

The 50x of all dfiferent officer weapons and officer suits is ungodly, i've never gotten 50 balac's total in my merc career.

i'd rather see 70m isk go to each player than 250m isk go to the corp wallet, so at least they did ONE thing right.

Yeah but we didn't get a Black Ops LAV BPO, but a standard tiered Angel Cartel Saga BPO instead.

The 50 Officer snipers were crap doing almost 100 less damage than the Thale's. Back then we also got batches of 10 Officer weapons at a time as salvage, so 50 back then were less than what it would be today.

Teabagging is a DQ lol!

lol start a match and have all the team start singing "dip dip potato chip" and see if you all get booted instantly.

Even if damage is lower, you can't deny that it's great to show it off on the killfeed and get constant mails sent to you.

The naming a planet is actually a big deal..

Name a planet in a dead game! Whoooooo

Eve is not dying, where the hell do you think that planet will be? Even if Dust514 was scrapped, your legacy would live on in that planet for years to come

Isk will be spent, guns will be lost.. the planet will forever remain

Please see my prior post for how this will truly work out...I will quote it here.....


Oh and the whole "naming a planet" thing...there is no way CCP will allow you to name it whatever you want. They will have to review and "approve" the name. I imagine even names like "Planet of the Imperfect" as an example would be refused. Instead they would basically give you a list of names that are similar to what Eve already has and then tell you to either make something like those names or pick from there list.

No, the winner will get final say in it. They are not going to force you to name it from a list, but i'm sure they will filter it and make sure it is not obscene

Not sure if you guys are aware, but some players in this game aren't in the biggest alliances nor as rich as some of you.

you're right, those guys will DEFINITELY win the tournament, right?

then you won't win the tournament anyway. Sorry, but that's how it is in DUST.

So, therefore the loot should only benefit the rich and powerful?

The loot isn't even worthwhile to a no name scrub...40 AUR tanks that are going to be one-shotted by breach forge guns and a seven day booster.......wow great stuff 20/10 thx ccp

So, therefore the loot should only benefit the rich and powerful?

So don't compete if it's not worth your clearly invaluable time.

You could complain about plenty off other things in this tourney, but no you complain because you wont get your new shinny toy

Just goes to show, as it always has. .. you can't satisfy everyone


and to the guy who said I must be new here... lols

Well you sound like you don't know CCP... you must be new...

If that's your general opinion, ok fine. Willing to be I know them more, and that's my opinion.

What else is there to complain about? The scheduling looks fine, the set up looks fine...it's just the rewards that are crap, and the silly "no teabagging" rule when this game was built on that kind of stuff.

The rewards suck, they should take away all the Tanks (that not everyone can even use!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF)
Take away the boostersL
ANd give some type of BPO. Maybe an LAV with the Corps name (or desired colors) on them.

alrighty then.. how about this. Don't like the prizes? Don't play, problem solved

CCP does not HAVE to give you anything, they do not HAVE to set up these tourneys for you.

yea... way to solve a problem. Just walk away from it and not say a thing. If you're happy with the mediocre prizes then that's you. Thankfully not everyone is a fanboy

I like how people just toss fanboy around as an end to argument like it really proves something. Am I a fan off CCP, indeed. Do I agree with everything they do, NO. Do I give them my opinion and hate on them for things , YES. Do I give them my money, yes.. so I believe I can have an opinion regardless of fanboism or not. Your sharing yours, I'm sharing mine.. only difference is I am not attcking you with insults

you pretty much confirmed you're a CCP fanboy, so I don't see how i insulted you when i just mention the vibe you're giving everyone. You're defending CCP's prize structure when the vast majority of people in this thread are not.

You don't think that comes across as fanboyish? no?...kthen,

What is this garbage, 40 AUR tanks that nobody cares about? The ISK is about right for each player, but there needs to be some better items being handed out. Oh yeah, and a SEVEN day booster for a tournament that's going to take over a MONTH to complete.....lol

Naming a planet is no big deal.

Where's the awesome BPOs? Items you can only get from this tournament?

The last closed beta tourney had VASTLY better rewards than this.

Oh yeah, it also says in the rules if you're caught teabagging anyone, you'll be disqualified? LOL, welcome to new eden, rite gias?

alrighty then.. how about this. Don't like the prizes? Don't play, problem solved

You are right, Kane Spero should setup another player run tourney and use PFC as the staging ground and everyone go play in there. Unfortunately i dont think there is even enough player enthusiasm to generate the fun and awesome prizes they had for that tourney.


Unfortunately as a CPM i doubt Kane would go against CCP and create his own tourney.

wow.....seriously....

there is a rule against teabagging......?????

I dont even teabag and I think this is stupid. To me teabagging proves that player is better then you because he made you upset enough to actually attempt to "humiliate" him further. So i go by the rule..."Act like you have been there before"...its no biggy (which it truly isnt anyway). So when i win a massive battle vs 4-5 guys...I just walk out...why? Well to me...been there done that...and did it again.

That all being said......this is ret@rdedness taken to a whole new lvl... LOL!!!!! Not in in the competitive gaming leagues I was in was there a "no teabagging rule" we just didnt do it out of respect for the other players.


Oh and the whole "naming a planet" thing...there is no way CCP will allow you to name it whatever you want. They will have to review and "approve" the name.

This game really doesn't need any more BPO's.
