1. Time for another extended break away from Dust - in General Discussions [original thread]
Long and regular breaks seem to be the way with Dust - we all get sick and tired of reporting the same tired old faults, so we take a break, increasingly long breaks as frustration mounts. But we really want to see Dust be all it should be. So we ...

2. hit detection problems please help fix it CCP - in General Discussions [original thread]
This has always been the problem killing Dust, and I'm pretty sure it's a network effect that's causing it. And much as I agree with you, that is desperately needs to be fixed, I think if CCP wanted to save Dust they would have investigated it by ...

3. Announcement:Dev Blog: Introducing Project Legion - in Announcement and Events [original thread]
There's a lot of people feeling let down here, and I guess that's understandable. I've been testing Dust since the closed beta in early-to-mid 2012, even got a PS3 for the privilege. I've given lots of feedback, and seen it mostly ignored, and see...

4. Please, for the love of all that is holy, fix hit detection CCP - in General Discussions [original thread]
Although none of us (that's *none* of us) can state definitively how hit detection is working (or rather, not working) until CCP publish some details, there's some evidence that it's both client and server side. You shoot at an enemy, their shi...

7. Announcement:Dev Blog: Equipment balancing in Uprising 1.8 - in Announcement and Events [original thread]
Well, we've all known for some time that the cloaking field was on its way - it opens enormous avenues for both creative gameplay and abuse. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to it or dreading it, but based on typical player actions... The chan...

8. Announcement:Dev Blog: Heavy and Light Reinforcement: Dropsuits of Upri... - in Announcement and Events [original thread]
I know this'll make a lot of people very happy, and while it's certainly nowhere near the top of my wishlist (not while performance and lag compensation are in such a sorry state), I'll certainly enjoy using a full suite of racial suits - and th...

9. Announcement:Dev Blog: Expanding The Arsenal With Uprising 1.8 - in Announcement and Events [original thread]
Always great to see new options added, and the artwork is great - looking forward to trying them out. Glad to see the Rail Rifle and Combat Rifle being dialled back - especially the Combat Rifle (who'd have thought it? A new Minmatard weapon whic...

10. Do we have a Lag Compensation issue? - in Feedback/Requests [original thread]
Wow - just wow. Last weekend I had pretty much all playable games. I can't remember the last time... I won't say I didn't feel like I was fighting the game engine (as opposed to the enemy), because frequently I did. The difference was that this t...

And for what it's worth, here's what I'd like to see... as a programmer (but not a game programmer) and network Engineer, may I suggest "Cal's top tips for easing this mess". If lag "compensation" is too favourable, dial back the effect so a h...

14. Do we have a Lag Compensation issue? - in Feedback/Requests [original thread]
Hi guys. There's been an elephant in the room for quite some time, and I really don't think we should ignore it any longer. I'm going to be blunt and say it right out. You get a better game experience with a worse network connection. I sho...

16. [POLL] What is the best option for tank balance? - in General Discussions [original thread]
Errr, I never thought I'd say this.... Here's my perspective for some months... I've been pretty sick of OP tanks, clearly set up with rapid-fire weapons to harvest infantry kills with minimal danger, and usually ending the game 20/0. As soon as ...

I can't help but notice that Dust is in trouble. That troubles *me*, because Dust is a noble project which deserves to do very well. The Dust Devs have certainly noticed that their charge is in trouble, as well. The problem is, those same Devs don...

I managed to get into 2 games today. Natch I quit both of them because they were unplayable, but that's by the by - absolutely par for the course. The thing I'd like to mention here is screen shake - for a year or so I've been reporting the every...

20. Faction -Standings- - in Feedback/Requests [original thread]
You're dead right - it's a similar problem to that in the EvE FW system, only in Dust it's even more broken (since in Dust you can change your "loyalty"on a battle-by-battle basis)... To fight in Faction Warfare, the "smart" way is to show zero...
