What is the direction of this game? I mean seriously, does anyone have any idea?
2 years after playing skirmish 1.0 why don't we have an official road map? It's ok if things get pushed back or canceled. But It feels like the game has no direction. The reason we don't have racial drop suits seems be more that the teams aren't focusing as there are no dead lines!
I don't want to believe that CCP is developing dust without an internal roadmap... Why don't we have an estimate on when we are going to see all racial content? Like just a simple roadmap since we know most of the art is supposedly done...
The point is right now each patch feels random and direction is being changed monthly... And maybe that's just the impressive I'm getting but hope it's not... I hope CCP has it's only internal road map and isn't just randomly changing direction...
I'm sorry someone help restore my faith. |

That's not a roadmap. What does fi the core mean we've been fixing the core for a year and a half of no progress. I mean the game needs all the suits or at least place holders ASAP. Whats in the world you can't balance the game without all the content where is tat on the roadmap? It's all wasted time and effort fixing the core when half of the content is missing. For instance what in the world is up with all the different ARs? I get they are placehodlers but why not guve them different skills then? Make them all gallente skills but have one for each. Then later replace them with the rcaial name and art.
isn't that simple?
Same with havey suits and such I'm sorry but this game doesn't seem to have a real 6month 1 year plan laid out it feels very... fuild... And the goals of a patch change so fast. I understand I'e been here the whole time. At the start there was a patch where people said, CCp, this isn't a good fps, it's intresting, but it needs a lot of work. And they have put a lot of work into it.
But it missing some really basica stuff and I feel it's due to lack of direction or vision of the game. Whats coming up? What can we expect in 6 months? 1 year?
Just something so we can know CCP will follow a plan. Or something.
I really hope this game isn't going to go nowhere when it could be so much. rebalancing the same things over and over again without even consider the future effect of all skills, *training times* all weapons *balance between races, making lasers the only ammo less weapons, ect* All dropsuits *give us a place to put skill points into the Ammar Heavy Thukker Suit. And the Caldari model.
We don't need all weapons I suppose... But slipting up the ARs wud be a nice start. Also adding one more grenade and then makng them all racial as well. Also the fact they still having fixed the issue where they can't give suits different bonuses. Why are we overbalancing tanks? Why add the AA tank? what is it shooting down? what was the scout LAV? Why not a new Minatar LAV the same model for now. So confused. |

Have you been honestly keeping up with the scoreboard?
Or are you just ranting to be ranting?
I'll go with the latter....
The game never had a 1 year plan. It has a 10 year plan...stop crying so hard...
Are you kidding? Why wouldn't you want the core of the game to be worked on first? See that's the point I would argue the core of the game is being ignored. I'm not just whing I'm serious. Did you see the CPM post about placeholder suits? It had more posts than anything on the forum. So we agree, the core needs to be in place. It's being ignored. The problem is what you and me agree on being the core of this game.

Then work on agency of the game and characters afterwards. Sorry to question this, but it's been two years now. I mean, two freaking years since the closed beta, they still do "core fixing"? This game was released a half a year ago and they are still "fixing the core"? I'm sorry if I don't understand something here, but what is it that I don't understand? And I swear to god, don't ******* answer me with "be course it's free". CCP got a leap of faith from us, and some money, but now it feels like the are toying and they abuse our belief and credit that we gave them. Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm alone with this mindset? So the balancing of weapons and suits that are available wasnt doing any thing?
yes that's my point real effective different in balance between weapons has been minimal at best and without the core of suits and skills to put points into , the game is really missing it's core to have any balance based around it. All balance right now is point less when all 4 races don'e have tanks, Lavs, Drop suits because it's not future proof. Just put in placeholders.
My point is they plan to remove the burst AR when the minmatar gun goes in the game, so why not just make an minmatar skill right now that lets you use the burst AR? That way the weapon can be balance with it's on skills and upgrades, and when the art is finished all you have to do is swap the model.
Without the core whats the point of all this balance? It hasn't really changed anything it's wasted time and effort. I mean even if the new tank balance works, Once two more tanks and tank weapons are introduced what happens to all that balance? |

but the core is having placeholders for everything can be balanced. Not balancining wrk that will be worth nothing in 2 years when they finally get around to it then and everything is unbalanced again. Just due to the intrduction of 3 more heavy suits for instance... why so many passes to heavy balance why not just have 4 heavy suits now? |
