Uhh... Coeus? You get 1 point added to your "jumps" stat every time you jump. That gives you 0.1 prestige, yes, but that's not what he said.

Stats are split evenly among all members of the group... so if you have 5 members, and someone jumps, everyone get's 0.2 (1 / 5) Jumps added to their profile.
We also apply a small bonus to all stat gains for now.. subject to change by developers.

I'm talking about the Jump's stat, not prestige.. 1/5th of 1 is 0.2.

This also works in reverse as well, if you die in combat from say losing a MD (120 pres loss). Everyone in the group will lose 40 pres for the death. Same with mass scraping of a planet, the scrapper will lose full pres, and everyone else 1/3rd.

this makes me not want to group with anyone. i'm perfectly capable of losing pres all by myself.

I like the grouping idea simply because now there is some nominal gain to being the interdictor or the extractor. Even though they do not have baseline stats of their own they are valuable services. Now someone who fills those roles can get some pres for doing it.

I don't care, i'm still not grouping with others if their screwups makes me lose pres.
Besides what this does is effectively shutting out low rank players from grouping with high rank players because while the shared pres loss might not be that bad for us, its effectively a BIG chunk of a complete rank for a new player...
And people can power rank now already, you tried playing a suppy on a new character lately? hitting captain or more in less then a day is completely possible.

Will kills/deaths/planet collisions remain purely on personal performance?
Just clarifying, as it makes sense for prestige to be affected, but on some individual stats...not so much.

No, every single stat will be shared (excepting time played and games played, I believe..) But I saw even kills being transfered through groups.

i like the grouping idea but if it does happen with the whole kill thing being transfered between char i don't like that part. i like the fact that you can have 3 or 4 ships frighting with the rest support but and eng ship building hiding in the back of a planet while there group getting kills i don't think the eng should get the kill cause someone else got it.

Complicated concept, I know.
You people DO realize that grouping is VOLUNTARY, right?

It's not like kills give you prestige or anything, and it's not like people can't massively inflate their scores by killing lots of AI.

Prestige will be shared per statistic, for each full statistic earned, 1/3rd of that statistic is applied to each member of the group.

I'm pretty sure that should read "1/n plus a small bonus is applied to each member of the group, where n is the number of players"

Pot calling the kettle black.
Back to topic, I'm totally against badge points being shared. Like I said in the Beta thread, it should only be prestige that's shared in the form of bonus prestige. People should still have to earn their badges themselves, not have someone else earn them for them.
