GTA V has worked for me since day one.
You must be THE lucky one ... since EVERYONE I know has lost modded cars out of their garages AND I guess you must be one of the tards with an iphone since their app isn't available on any other device and I believe is STILL buggy as hell on ios.
Didn't think you'd still be trying to claim GTA was so great after all the problems it's had since launch. |

The connection to Eve is what sets it aside ... and always will.
The metagaming we've already seen on a small scale of corporations being infiltrated and robbed and disbanded, imagine when that happens to one of the major corps ... it might not make news headlines like Eve does, but it'll certainly make legends new players will hear about in conversations for years to come. The new corp roles coming tomorrow are opening up more of this side of the gameplay.
How about the 'future roadmap' stuff related to skyfire cannons and the ability to shoot down Eve ships ... how many other games do you expect will be able to connect 2 different genres of game on 2 different platforms (not just different consoles, which I don't imagine Rockstar is even contemplating with GTA ... PS3 and Xbox are completely isolated) ... DUST already does this with Eve players currently able to fire Orbital support down onto the DUST battlefield in real time !
There's also the whole different ways to play side of things ... I know most will scoff at these since they just want to PVP in an FPS (lets face it that's all they're doing in GTA online ! ) ... but there are many people in Eve who never leave Jita 4.4 and spend all their time buying and selling stuff on the market for profit ... people who do nothing but manufacture stuff to sell to the people who go getting themselves blown up using it ... or the people who sit in asteroid belts cycling lazers onto asteroids ... or people who simply make copies of their researched BPOs and sell them in contracts ... the list goes on ... but there will be different 'ways to play' DUST when we have manufacture and secondary market and PVE and command dropsuits (which are the ones ment to control the MCC and strategise placement of vehicles n turrets etc.)...(not sure if this one is still planned or abandonded).
Ohh and not forgetting the most important one ... as someone else has already touched on ... DUST is a persistent game ... there will NEVER be a DUST 2 or a DUST 515 ... there will only ever be DUST 514 ... and as someone mentioned your character will still be here when DUST begins it's second decade and T3 HAVs are roaming round with customizable slot loadouts and ewar setups and who knows what else, maybe even transformer style vehicles that can fly and drive and enter siege mode costing hundreds of million isk and 50 mil sp just to operate.
DUST will persist while there are people who want more depth to their gaming than just shoot everything that moves ... and there are lots of those people waiting for it's foundations to set. |

You fanbois crack me up.
Hows that DUST Vita app coming along?
Pffff please!
BTW sorry all your frinds are tards, you know everyone you know and all.
DUST Vita app is being developed ... by a small development company with little experience with consoles.
GTA V's ios app was developed by people who clearly have something going on with apple ... I'd imagine (knowing how apple operate) an expensive lawsuit pending for use of a phone that "looks like" the iphone ... which they're holding off providing they don't release the app on any other device for a month or more.
Yet GTA V's ios app is still buggy as hell. People still can't get the license plates they've ordered, and peoples dogs are dead (or whatever) from not being able to use the app.
and the last part just makes me laugh ... school yard retorts ... "well if I'm one then you must be one", "it takes one to know one", "my dads bigger than your dad" ... Grow up ! |

Yeah I agree ... a lot of this integration can't even be considered until DUST is in a stable position with very little imbalance and a solid PVE setup to generate it's own wealth and it's own stable player run economy ... it's like the 'set foundation' metaphor I used ... you can't build on wet concrete and if you try to start building bridges across to phase 1 you'll only be tearing chunks off that structure if your new building isn't stable.
Yes some of it does depend on the 2 games being relevant to each other, the seeds for this have been sown with Eve pilots getting bonuses to structures orbiting planets controlled by their corp in PC ... second to that will be integration of contracts allowing Eve corps to contract DUST corps, or viceversa, to take control of planets on their behalf ... this will provide the incentive for the Eve corp to support the attack, while the defending corp, be it DUST or Eve, can hire pilots or mercs to help fend off the attack to maintain control for their, either Eve or DUST, bonuses.
Hope that makes sense, there's too many possibilities I'm trying to include ... maybe a DUST corp owns a planet and is getting bonuses to clone count in neighbouring PC battles (for example) but an Eve corp wants to control this planet to bonus their moon harvesting nearby, so the DUST corp hires an Eve corp to defend from the attack in space and the Eve corp hires a DUST corp to launch the ground attack. But then (metagaming) the defending DUST corp pays a few billion isk to the hired attacking DUST corp not to complete their contract ... or the attacking Eve corp pays the hired defending Eve corp to warp away and void their contract ... AND in both cases ... they could double bluff taking the isk AND completing the contract, thus fulfilling their role as a true Mercenary corp or griefing Eve corp.
But the bonuses need to be worthwhile, and the contracts need to be integrated, and PC needs to be opened New Eden wide ... then we have a worthwhile connection. |

GTA-V FTW wrote:LOL whatever fanboi.
Keep telling yourself whatever you need to.
Just like the game you defend you are boring so I am done with you.
So run along now little fanboi run along and play your lol lobby FPS.
Hahaha ... kids make me laugh.
I haven't played DUST in ... let's see now ... about 2 weeks ! ... before that I hadn't played nearly as often as I used to.
Funny that ... 2 weeks ago is about the time another game released ... what was it now !?
I've played GTA V ... I bought it on release day ... I hadn't planned to, but I impulse bought it cos I liked GTA 3 ... 4 was utter rubbish but someone told me on release day 5 was more like 3 so I went n got it. I was already getting bored of my AV being unchallenging so I'd not been DUSTing so much n GTA V put an end to it.
It made me laugh when day 1 people were losing cars and properties and there was no android app and the ios app didn't work at all while Rockstar were counting their billion profits, but hey, I enjoyed the offline game.
Then the online started ... for a select few ... while the majority couldn't log in due to "a PlayStation Network server issue" "that was limiting the amount of possible concurrent users." ... yeah I'm sure it was an issue with the servers ... not an issue with how you were trying to use them ... I'm sure Sony jumped out of bed to sort that problem out for you !!
It's all here on their website in the last 2 news pages.
The latest one being a list of fixes ... temp characters overwriting main characters, money and property disappearing, removal of the autosave cos it was corrupting GTA V save files and "improving overall stability" ... lol, yet it still takes ages to load anything and still fails to connect and still doesn't show either of the characters I've created and played to level 5ish.
You seriously think GTA V isn't a lobby shooter ... have you read ANY of this thread, or even watched the video in the OP ... perhaps you didn't understand the big words ... or maybe you got bored after the intro music ... but there's been a discussion here about the FACT that GTA V is just the same as a lobby game in that you are instanced with around 20 other players and in order to interact with others you have to leave one session and join another ... there's NOTHING different about that than joining a different battle in DUST ... they've just taken the 'lobby list' and hidden it away in the menu / online / players submenu.
If you can't handle a proper, reasoned, adult argument then I can understand your boredom and reluctance to continue ... I used to do the same when I was immature, thankfully I grew out of it like most people do when you start big school. |
