Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 988	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:21:00 - [1] - Quote What thing could CCP add that would increase average player count by several thousand? I think: MTACs or Fighters.
Kasote Denzara A Vulture 90	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:23:00 - [2] - Quote Proper core mechanics. ;_;
Lorhak Gannarsein DUST University Ivy League 108	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:24:00 - [3] - Quote I don't think it's about pulling in new players so much as retaining the ones it already has :/
Protocake JR Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 372	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:25:00 - [4] - Quote PVE It will probably be the safest place for newbies to learn how to play the game and still make progress. But even that probably won't be enough.

Madagascan Eagle 3dge of D4rkness SoulWing Alliance 28	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:26:00 - [6] - Quote a decent tutorial. a better academy system. a 2 million sp respec.

Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 989	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:29:00 - [8] - Quote Kasote Denzara wrote: Proper core mechanics. ;_; content =/= gameplay I think. Sort of evades the question. Get the point but they're already working on that and I'm not sure how much better you can expect it to get.

steadyhand amarr Foxhound Corporation General Tso's Alliance 1027	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:31:00 - [10] - Quote PvE that should have been in from the startonce that's in their I will proabaly log in again

Knightshade Belladonna Mannar Focused Warfare Gallente Federation 805	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:31:00 - [11] - Quote PVE with a proper tutorial/training mode for new players.
Vyzion Eyri The Southern Legion 1125	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:31:00 - [12] - Quote Nguruthos IX wrote: You're saying CCP has only grinding to offer? No fun in the game? And here is the core dilemma. What is DUST 514? MMORPG? MMOFPS? FPSRPG? RPGMMOFPS? No one knows. Don't even think CCP does. What is the use of a roadmap if there is no destination?
XeroTheBigBoss TeamPlayers EoN. 815	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:33:00 - [13] - Quote Chromosome like shooting mechanics.
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 989	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:33:00 - [14] - Quote Protocake JR wrote: PVE It will probably be the safest place for newbies to learn how to play the game and still make progress. But even that probably won't be enough. That's a pretty big under taking.

Michael Arck sephiroth clones D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 476	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:38:00 - [17] - Quote The community. That's where it starts. They could give all the content you guys has been asking for since God knows when, and still wouldn't help if the community is bad mouthing every step of the way. And you know what? I like that Dust is not appealing to the masses. It's a niche game and it requires people who understand that. To gain more players would more than likely pull in hardcore BF and COD fans who play this game like they do those two. Who would complain even more and make threads/threats about leaving. Plus, the full scope is not even realized yet for this game. The forum needs a class in decorum and tact when dealing with the devs. The game as a whole needs work and implementations that will take time. It also needs a dedicated community who can judge it objectively and suggest ideas that would better it. In other words, we got plenty of in house things to do before we worry about bringing in a influx of players. I've met some cool folks on these boards but nothing compares to the players in game. It's like night and day. On the forums, the majority sounds like whining brats. In game, the majority are excited and dedicated to the game. Heck, I'm starting to see familiar faces in the Caldari chat that I know play the game at least every day if not every other, like me. I've said this numerous times, but I'm betting on the fact on how they pulled off EVE is how they will pull off Dust. In other words, we gotta let this baby simmer and raise it right.
sammus420 Goonfeet Top Men. 247	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:40:00 - [18] - Quote Rolling back to Chromosome, but keeping the new gear and skills.
Aikuchi Tomaru Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 175	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:42:00 - [19] - Quote I'll go with PvE / Coop. It would get people into the game who don't like PvP at all.
Den-tredje Baron ParagonX 182	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:43:00 - [20] - Quote Mtacs are like still so far out that it's still on the level of "uuhh this would be niiice to have in" and when it comes to fighters the maps are not big enough to have someone fly around in a fighter yet. I think that having all dropsuits and especially all the heavies in will grab some people back. Probably not 1000 of players but maybe some hundreds. After this aiming fixes and hit detection fixes would also bring some people back and have them stay. As soon as CCP get dropships rebalanced and get all the dropsuits into the game i think we'll begin to see a big influx of new players. Though it's all about how fast they can do it before DUST hits rock bottom.

Arkena Wyrnspire Turalyon 514 2372	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:44:00 - [21] - Quote PvE. If only to get the newbies away from the pubstomping madness.
Protocake JR Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 375	Posted - 2013.08.06 12:50:00 - [22] - Quote KingBabar wrote: Kasote Denzara wrote: Proper core mechanics. ;_; And stop this PVE nonsense. PVE is for story based AAA titles. Why would anyone play Dust and shoot at bots? Its only useable for the EVE carebear peeps that are tired of getting stomped in a game that actually require some playerskill. This is not a point and click in space game, its an competitive shooter. Dust has serious playerbase issues, taking even more players away is not a good idea. Dust is F2P and needs as many carebears as it can get; large numbers of casuals who are willing to spend time playing the game and eventually maybe spend some money. Dust can still be a competitive shooter and still have a separate area (pve) for people to safely learn how to play the game.

Dust can still be a competitive shooter and still have a separate area (pve) for people to safely learn how to play the game. Pretty sure PvE would bring more people in than anything else. I am actually playing like once a month now, to check on the new patches. PvE would certainly make me pplay more than that. I see nothing serious right now. Everytime I play, I am laughing so hard at how the game became, it's actually not fun. I am not in for just core mechanics tweeking, since I was bored to play 1 game mode after the launch uprising, without any outcome to make me want to stick playing. Isk isn't a valuable outcome right now, since no one know what to do with it after they get even billions. Give me some PvE, some new game modes, some stuff to waste my SP on, a real interaction with EVE.
Moonracer2000 Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 624	Posted - 2013.08.06 13:27:00 - [24] - Quote I agree with others that PVE would help bring in (and keep) newer players. To keep older players, I would say a real random map mechanic (or at least a lot more maps) should be top priority.
Leither Yiltron KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 633	Posted - 2013.08.06 13:33:00 - [25] - Quote **** pics On a serious note though: It's nothing less than reckless to say that any one piece of content would have the effect of grabbing thousands of players within a very short span of time. Dust, like Eve, is a game whose player base will come in at the tortoise's pace. Guaranteed that, despite the classic parable, people will still be shocked when the tortoise wins the race and not the hare.
CommanderBolt A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. 140	Posted - 2013.08.06 13:34:00 - [26] - Quote Open up the MCC`s and allow us to get onto them / inside them so we can attack / defend he MCC. Just like Titan mode in Battlefield 2142. You guys are nearly there it wouldn't take much to make this happen and I honestly think people will love it!
KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf Brutor Vanguard Minmatar Republic 5268	Posted - 2013.08.06 13:36:00 - [27] - Quote It doesn't matter what they add, it won't attract anyone if no one hears about it; if they add such a piece of content, then they would need to actually advertise it to get the word out. As for the actual content, it would have to be PVE.
Bethhy Resheph Interstellar Strategy Gallente Federation 48	Posted - 2013.08.06 13:39:00 - [28] - Quote I Would say a ranking and matchmaking system, but seeing how CCP is running on fumes for customer base... its almost to little to late for that. Would stop the K/D/R hero's from caring so much and give the noobs stable competition not uber gods they can only kill with gernades and forge guns Edit* If you think PVE will make an online shooter better... you are the people who are responsible for so much wasted dev time. These nerf's where for you ;)
