MotherMoon Huang Yinglong FOUNDATI0N	Posted - 2008.05.15 23:39:00 - [1] Originally by: Ki Tarra Originally by: CCP Hammer Currently the barrier to entry is pretty low. You only need a positive 0.5 standing towards your chosen faction to join their militia. If you play a lot and end up with +10 to Minmatar and -10 to Amarr you should have a bit of trouble switching sides but don't you think that's the way it should be? The problem is that if you hit -5 base standings, there is no way back. I have no problem with a long painful process to recover from -10 standings. But if you can hit -5 by trialling in Faction Warfare out for a month or two, you will effectively cut yourself off from that faction for the rest of your character's life. but you can recover. get a buddy, have him start a mission, share the rewards. plus if its a lvl 5 mission you'll be killing faction ships along the way. However this will end you up with -10 with that faction.

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong FOUNDATI0N	Posted - 2008.05.16 00:05:00 - [3] Originally by: LetsDoThis Yeah lets just create a huge ass PvE barrier of entry FOR PVP. ok then go around shooting the faction you want lower standings for. for instance, you want to work for the ammar but your standings are -10 with ammar. so you run around shooting minmatar players, and BAM your PvPing for your faction standings. best part about eve is your get the standings incease or loss in PvP the second you open fire so you wouldn't have to win jsut attacking everything that moves.

There are some nice things here, but I think this expansion is going to go over poorly. The hardest core players in this game are in alliances and in 0.0 and this offers NOTHING for those players at all. This expansion seems geared towards getting highsec carebears into pvp. Most of them don't want to pvp (at least not yet at this point in their game point), and this won't make them want to. Your existing pvp'ers (out in 0.0) will look at this and say, "meh". This thing should NOT be released until alliances can participate. welcome to the point, 0.0 allaince hated the idea of factional warfare effecting allainces, so CCP listened and made it not effect them.

How about alliances being able to align with the faction of their choice? well they CAN allready, they just can't help with timers and such. nothing is stopping the players form being a thrid wheel in factional warfare.

Because they have nothing bad to be said about it... they cant argue that you need to be able to get out of the -10 hole and such. no no my point about all you have to do is have your friend take a mission, help him with it, and then have him turn the mission in and share rewards... wouldn't that recover you?
MotherMoon Huang Yinglong FOUNDATI0N	Posted - 2008.05.16 03:37:00 - [8] Originally by: LetsDoThis I saw it, and I recognize that its possible. But its still an absurd grind, and a problem that CCP needs to look into regardless. ok that's fair, I just wanted to make sure my information was correct.
