I find this phenomenon weird... why the need to keep posting about a game that you consider dead? I mean, it's a bit sad to see people go, particularly people who are fun to play both with and against, but I totally understand that people just lose interest, there are "better" (meaning different) games out there, so it's just natural. However, you guys (meaning SyN in particular) have been saying for ages you're done with this game as soon as the next big title comes out (GTA5?), now you are finally, actually done with pc, so why even bother posting in the War Room? Maybe you need to learn to let go? |

Neither have any of us (except me recently) concerning the "dead game" comment take a look at the player counts DUST is barely over 3000 ppl now and keep in mind the online for gta aint even out yet, like i said in my other post if ppl watch me with a straight face and think dust isnt gonna lose more ppl come november then lol
when a game goes from 9K online at launch to 3K in 4 months u know something is terribly wrong with the game. I get ppl like the game but fanbois need to open their eyes and see how fast a dropoff that was.
As for our districts if anyone been paying attention for the past few months they would of seen this coming, hell even said it on twitter that come oct 1st (GTA:O) we'd not be holding land anymore. SyN is a competitive clan and this game is the absolute worst game i have played "competitively" its a fckin joke and if u notice most of the competitive ppl left or will b leaving sooner or later.
This is the only game that i see wanting to be "competitive" that promotes the dumbest ways to win a match that takes away all gungame, skill, strats from the equation and replaces it with spam tactics on top of poor map design.
Personally id love to see alot of these other corps on a real competition worthy game and see what happens when they actually gotta put time in developing strats and skill rather than just use fotm or spam tactics. Most prob wont be good at other games hence the reason ppl cling to something they good at as well, was the same situation with MAG peeps not wanting to accept reality their game was dying back then cuz it was the only game most of that playerbase was decent at.
It's not just Lance, but that's beside the point. Everyone who actually plays the game and has half a brain knows the numbers are bad, that's not the point either. It's just a bit silly when so many people who claim to have moved on and, frankly, make fun of people who haven't (because, clearly, anyone still even occasionally enjoying this game, even with all of its obvious flaws, is just stupid) - -haven't moved on enough to stop posting useless bs on the forums (and, no that's not referring to this post of yours, but to many other posts by many other people, many of them EoN). And just doing it for trolling purposes, well, I find that a bit sad in and of itself, but I never have had much patience or respect for trolls.
Yeah, dust needs a lot of work, duh, CCP had dropped the ball on many occasions, hopefully they will get back on track (and, to be fair, they kind of did, with 1.4). Anyone expecting a miracle quick fix is deluding themselves, but that's been the case since the release of Uprising... I personally got into this game for the long haul, that was part of the appeal to me, but I also know that not everyone is that patient. And it is entirely possible that if CCP fucks around for much longer it will be too late for this game, but, oh well, we're not quite at that point yet.
And of course, with the changes coming so slowly, and new appealing mainstream releases happening, people will move over to other games, that's just the way it works... However, while the last COD release pulled away quite a few people, many of them came back to dust, some after a few weeks, some even months later... And that will probably happen at least to some extent in the future as well, when it comes to other new games. And that's the beauty of a f2p game with the passive SP gain...
But anyway, Mavado, I've had some great times playing both with and against you (and some awful times too LOL), and I hope you and your clan all the best in whichever actually competitive game you end up on next. We probably won't be running into each other there, because, well, we all know how **** I am this game, I'd be useless in a game that takes real skill If you know, I'd ever been even the slightest bit interested in playing games like Battlefield or COD or whatever in the first place...

People need to stfu and take a joke once in a while. If you'd actually read the thread, you'd see that it's not exactly all on topic... You know, what with like 2 pages of people listing what corps they've been in And other things just as relevant to your original post... Be proud, you initiated a lively discussion, what's wrong with that? But I digress, let's get it back on track: EoN sucks/won the game/are all evil/are better than ice cream/are not even decent/are the best/kick puppies and kittens (how can you, Lance, think of the kittens!)/are epic trolls etc. etc. etc.
