DUST hit 15k player peaks on Singularity server in Open Beta. and would hold onto 10k players all 23 hours a day.
Then Uprising hit... The worse Aiming mechanics and Hit detection I have ever seen in a shooter. Missing items... Extremely imbalanced implementation of new content.
Over 20 promises made directly to the community not present. PC, an absolute joke with no forward thought of how a land grabs would work... Let alone make it a giant free for all directly at a certain time frame. Making huge player splinters in the community and dividing player groups into timezones. PC was laggy to all hell ruining the experience of competitive DUST.
It's been disappointment after disappointment with DUST 514 from CCP Shanghai. Even when they where getting population jumps unseen of since beta on the lead up to 1.8 patch and then fanfest excitement... They decided to unzip their pants and **** all over the hopes and dreams of their fans.
Destiny seems like they all sat together in a room, rolled a joint and actually discussed how the entire game is gonna work and how everything will work together. CCP Shanghai has been wondering through the dark trying to figure it out as they go.
You are one of the most spot on members of the forum , your comments are rare to disappoint .
You would think that CCP would have given the infantry refund that should have been in 1.8.

That part is the one that really, really makes you shake your head.
It's hard to believe how bad they screwed up at Fan Fest.
I really can't see that from a business standpoint , they were thinking that they would hit a home run with that announcement , was it right .?. no , you had people who traveled and don't get treated with too much respect already especially if they just play Dust , they will be told the whole time about how their missing out on the full experience of New Eden because they are only console players and what they did was no different .
Who dominate the Dust forums .?. Eve players , no knock to them because without EVE there would be no Dust so I understand completely but from a business standpoint , they just gave their fan base what they were looking for .. you know , the majority of the people that were there .
It's a good move for them and it get's rid of the headache ( The community and company .. their words , not mine's . ) of dealing with Sony and now they have the freedom to do what they want and with the bulk of their current fan base that will now become their full bulk .
No more console .
Or at least , for now ?
But they are catering to their consumers , the ones who still played Dust and still dominated their forums and that game .
If those who have a console , spend to get a PC to play legion , then that's a plus for them because they know that they will have the money to spend on the actual game .
No more sharing with Sony so they believe that will be even more of a bonus for them .
Good luck with that , wonder if you came back to consoles .. would people invest .?. prob would , with the short term selective memory of this generation .
I was but I can't be mad , I only felt bad for those who went to FF not knowing at all what was in store , not even from gossip during the event .
That had to be sad but they were the minority in their eyes and that seems to happen to the minority a lot these days .
I just started playing like 6 months before FF , now getting close to my year .
