Idk if I scrolled past it or not (very easy to do on a cellphone) but has there been a dev blog or anything about new weapons for 1.5? They still changing the range of AR and Ascr? |

Got pushed to 1.6 along with vehicles.
1.6 is gonna be a doozy. 1.5 is squad finder, corp roles, and uh... i forget what else. probably because it's not that memorable. OTOH, I appreciate small fixes ... they accrue over the years and lead to er.... solid gameplay.
patch notes are at the top of General forum. |

At least they are doing **** instead of letting it die really quickly :o Hey, all snarkiness aside, i'm rooting for CCP. It's a love hate relationship. i look at the game today and say "yeh, way cooler than 6 months ago" and 200% better than Uprising 1.0. Each small feature they add is something else that makes the game better. Squad finder and improved corp mechanics will do a lot for NPE. Vehicle balance, new weapons and racial suits ARE coming. It just takes a while.
The thing is, we're in a period of people who had high expectations from CBT leaving due to boredom and burnout and overstrained patience. There is a finite pool of bittervets though, and once that exodus is complete there is really nowhere to go but up for player numbers. Dust is still the most appealing "hmmm, let me search for Free on PSN" game and I think the slow trickle of new players will ultimately result in continual slow and steady growth of the playerbase built on people who don't have grand EvE link expectations and will judge the game for what it is rather than what was promised.
These aren't the bleeding edge hardcore FPS crowd, they aren't the MAG community yearning for perfection in team-based gameplay and balance, and they won't come into the game with a bitter taste in their mouth from months and months of cyclic horribad bugs or nostalgia for Chromosome.
We shall call these players "noobs" but it is they who will carry Dust into the next two years along with a core of hardcore fans. They will fill the pub matches and learn about New Eden and progress into FW and build their own castles of Sand and rage against the walls of the STB empire. As bug fixes continue, the game is more solid, and content is added the appeal slowly but steadily grows and all of a sudden it's 2015 and you don't even recognize the political landscape because a guy who started in Dec 2013 is all of a sudden a 25mil SP killing machine who built a corp you never heard of that rules a region...
That's why the game will live on. CCP can afford the dev costs and I think they are settling in and see the light at the end of the tunnel, though it is a really long tunnel. We CBTers have served our purpose, and maybe one day some will return to the game. |

@_@ I might be calling their jobs too easy(which I'm sorry for) when I say this but I believe 1.6 could come in REAL fast if this update has little to no problems due to lack of stuff. |

yea new vehicles and weapons now slated for 1.7...
rather than the typical SOONGäó they now provide specific times and just push it back.. false sense of security.
personally I prefer the SOONGäó over that |

It's not like the time between patches is predicated on how much fixing is required for it.
It's called a "development cycle". They have a pre-set order of development phases for a scheduled release. Technically, CCP probably has release dates for the next three or four patches. What's in those patches is defined by how much they can get done in time.
So 1.6 won't come earlier because 1.5 works well (if it does, which it probably won't. 1.4 was supposed to be epic.) but 1.6 might have more in it than originally planned. |

But 1.4 had bigger changes in matchmaking. I hope the'll get the squadfinder right away, but i guess the'll need to work on that a little bit |
