Hello True, I couldn't stay the entire time for the last one brother wanted to watch a movie but I am curious to see what you will be teaching to our players.

I hate this corp. The highest concentration of fan boys per square inch. Full of pretentious BS too. Thanks for the awesome OP - the usual pretentious self-promotion.

I fully agree and +1.

These hypocrites should be kicked out of Dust and never come back again ... whole Dust University.
Never had a good experience with those guys, when they were in my team or my opponents.

Bad play, lack of teamplay, won't even let you join their half full squads and they cry like babies in forums.

Read your name the first time as "True Xerox" as in the copy machine and I thought to myself this person must have a hard on for copy machines or something.

You...... have.......to......be......kidding..................................me.

So now Dust University teaches people how to create their own stories, so CCP don't have to ?

Sorry to say this... but Meta Gaming is a disease in Dust 514, not something that people should be encourage to do.

You giving CCP the perfect excuse to sell you an Empty Book, and then make you write it yourself....

Leave the Meta Gaming in EvE, where it bellows... I want a complete game, thank you very much.

Like it or not, DUST is as much EVE as EVE is as much DUST. They're set in the same universe, tied together on the same server. The connection might not be there yet... but in a few years EVE Corporations will be looking to exploit DUST players for their own personal gains and vice versa.

And in few years i may even enjoy Meta Gaming...but RIGHT now, the game is not even properly finish yet. Lets finish the game first... yes ? Stop giving CCP excuses to skip game features, because the Meta Gaming is covering them.

And... what exactly are you talking about? "Skipping features because the meta-game covers it." The meta-game has absolutely nothing to do with the developers at all, considering it's the only content in DUST and EVE that is completely player driven. The entire FEC vs EoN war /was/ meta-game, played out by the players themselves. Not with the help of Devs...



Really, come out Wednesday to the lecture at least to gain a better understanding of meta-gaming.

I would like to request further lectures on the following topics:

-History behind each race (have like 10 minutes brief summary, followed by 40-50 minutes more in detail for those who'd listen, like me) <- so roughly an hour. PER RACE, mind you. I don't want no wishy-washy talk rushed because all races were crammed into one.

-What happens in EVE. What you guys put into this I leave up to you. As a 99% DUST player (played EVE trial and am thinking about getting serious about it next year) I am mostly clueless about EVE. For example, for weeks after PC was introduced, I thought 'plexing' meant the act of trading PLEX, those in-game time cards. Confused the shiet out of me. I thought, what the hell is FW doing influencing that? I only realised it was short for complexing, and what that meant, after some research. Maybe 30-40 minutes for general explanations about EVE with 1-hour sessions specifically on a certain topic within EVE.

Would love Q&A sessions for these too. HOWEVER if EVE Uni does these lectures and they can be accessed from DUST, point them out. I was thinking though, EVE lectures may contain terminology foreign to the average DUST bunny. Referencing hotkeys, for example.

-Technology behind weapons. Perhaps some of your teachers may understand how lasers, plasma, snipers work? How they should work? How they SHOULDN'T? Would be interesting to know some of these logical flaws and the gaping holes where realism clashes with good gameplay. Short or long, depending on the interest of the lecturer. Maybe no Q&A as it could get controversial.

-Even just talking about forum threads of interesting topics, and getting people to express their opinions. I'm sure that it is the vocal minority on this place constantly; I'd love to see you guys report back on the community's views on an idea expressed in a forum thread.

Additionally:

-Streaming? I don't know, this may be a bit of a stretch, but DUST offers gameplay that will captivate audiences far more than EVE could. Perhaps streaming a game and describing what you're doing, etc.

-

Anyways, good luck with this lecture. I won't be attending personally but I hope you don't get too many mic trolls.

I know everything about Meta Gaming... and how it can be ABUSE by Developers. Look at Dust 514 ...and you'll see how meta-gaming is affecting CCP decisions, the evidence are all over the place.

As far as they make money, and you do most of the work for them...is not need for them to try to hard.

You guys are just like Drones programmed by CCP to do their job.

Appreciate the suggestions as to future lectures.

I'll inform our Director of Education to look over this post and see if he can't figure out how to go about it. As far as E-UNI is concerned, I believe they do some of these specific lectures, I'm not 100% sure as I'm not in E-UNI on my eve character. However, I do know that they have a public mumble channel, and that most - if not all - of their lectures are open to the public.

Though, anything DUST related will more than likely come out from DUST University.

EDIT: Goro's link should help a bit more.



Pretty absurd and baseless accusation you've got going there... mind elaborating on what exactly you mean, with evidence of the 'meta-game' affecting CCP's decisions?

I... don't think you realize that Dust University has over a thousand something members, and that most of them are new to the game, thus still learning how to play the game. You can't expect everyone to be instantly good the moment they start DUST 514... so this 'lack of team play' and 'bad play' style you're apparently talking about should improve with time.

As for the 'won't even let you join their half full squads' comment.. that's laughable at best. As I keep telling people, if you do not join Squad comms when you join a D-UNI squad, you're more than likely to be removed by discretion of the Squad Leader. Otherwise you're just taking up a space that was being saved for a corp mate.

How our members run their squads is completely up to them... especially considering the fact that they almost always ask if a random non-corp member has squad comms active.
