CCP can't keep up with today's demands and stay competitive with other titles. DUST is a cool game, but it will never be right, or in proper working order. By the time the mechanics of the game will be fixed, the content of the title will have been long since eclipsed.

CCP, you are burning the candle from both ends and there is no sign that you can ever catch up to the competition. Its not your fault, as your resources are limited and you are attempting to stretch them as far as you are capable, all the while still learning as you go.

I have no doubt that DUST has generated you revenue, maybe even profit has been seen, or will be seen in the near future. However, the way I see it, you are trying to shovel out a hole, but twice the dirt keeps falling back in with every shovel full.

I would love to see DUST 514 in working order and have the depth that has been promoted, but with new consoles on the way, newer and better engines being built, the CCP DUST 514 Project will never chase down the deficit there competition has started them in. The gaming market is very hard to compete into, and attempting to build a AAA Title from scratch may have not been a good idea.

So, I ask you to just scrap DUST 514. Your playerbase will move on, as most of them have been doing anyway, and will do so more when the next Battlefield, Call of Duty, and Destiny titles become available. This is not to say that you should never attempt this type of project ever again, but perhaps more emphasis on "learning the ropes" should be releasing content into a public audience.

Yeah I think that you guys should just, you know, scrap this massive investment.
I like your other game, sure, but not this one. You guys should get it out of my face. I'm sick of looking at it.

Right guys? This game sucks! Add me XBL xXx_420sniperHAXX3r_xXx
Who's excited for Destiny on XBONE!!!

I can't say that it is. But comparing CoD to DUST is worse than comparing apple & oranges. You have to compare DUST to Planside or Blacklight Retribution for a fair comparison. And quite frankly, its not even close to those 2 games. DUST started out in last place and will be left in the dust by the time the next round of major shooters get released. Does ps2 have a price per fitting? When you kill someone with an end game weapon do you scream "oh **** that cost him some $$" its like in an rpg such as elona or mabinogi: you spent 2 weeks getting this weapon, and because you wanted to steal someone's dagger you were stabbed in the throat and lost that weapon. Does ps2 have this sort of play? No? Then stfu. When i'm afraid to bum rush someone in halo reach with a gravity hammer because of isk, then i'll take that back. Edit: think i quoted the wrong person, but that goes to op

Because i'm not scared shitless about losing ingamcreds. If halo had a cost of 200reachpoints or wutever, then i'll stop using guest accounts.
