I have found a use for it.

Not getting any passive training on an alt, this is just a slower way of training some skills on it.
But still, its uninteresting feature, and I would log in regardless, to make my PI facilities keep up producing.

My magic ball predicts huge grow in PCU which will make CCP report great success.
At the same time player interaction level will stay the same.

Marketing victory! Lol

I'm not so sure it will move the PCU much, but will move the overall login numbers. So going to be interesting to see how the stats play out. Hopefully CCP Quant makes something public in a few weeks.

But its always about the effects one needs to achieve, not the effects that are showing, because, do they think that even 0,5% rise would be a success? Its a matter of perception, if glass is half empty or half full, or is it completely irrelevant because your water is polluted and undrinkable.

Most will still drink the Kool-aid. Even if it's glowing in the dark, smells like Victorian age sewer and produces toxic fumes.

In the end we will see what will happen, like most of us always do. And then adapt and shrug it of.

Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

Why don't CCP get some players to test things before they are released? What ever method they use for testing at the moment seems to miss a lot of bugs.

I wanna join up. I think I got what it takes to be a Citizen.

The goal is to test if this new system encourages people to log on... How else could you test this, other than releasing it to the masses?

CCP needs only one effect: something to declare success. For it they need more accounts, bigger PCU, bigger login numbers, etc...

Now, now, no need to bring my special home brew into all this!


I'm not completely against this, but it would be nice to be able to 'group up' the kills on a weekly basis or so. A daily login requirement can bring on burnout. Ask the WoW team!

One question for CCP, I notice this topic is not in the Information forum. It's a new feature, so I'm surprised it's relegated to General?

This is exactly how I was thinking of using it. However, so far have just been killing belt rats with my main.
