Vyzion Eyri wrote: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.
We will most likely be having plenty more public lectures from varying topics but it all depends on how this one goes :) |

Forum trolling is a form of Meta Gaming. People take the time to say anything negative they can to get a rise out of people and provoke a response. It can be used in many ways. Most people do it just for the laughs, some have alternative motives. Either way it is a promotion of what this class is about.
Meta Gaming is such a broad subject. So many aspects can be use to manipulate the game we play. I honestly don't feel it is something CCP hoped would allow them to slack, but leave things open. Allow the player to create their own universe in which they can become almost anything they want.
Yes, the game is still a long way from complete. I couldn't agree more. We as players should take the time to constructively come together and help CCP understand the biggest issues at this moment. Which I think we do already on some levels. Think about what you are saying as well. Are your ideas based on absolute fact, or just random encounters in which you did not benefit from? We as players have more control over the progression of this games development then any other game in history. Dust & Eve. Be thankful for that.
This post was a product of Meta Gaming. Every action has a reaction. Last line....newtons 2nd law.....or was it 3rd? |
