TechMechMeds Swamp Marines Kleenex Inc. 1476	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:13:00 - [32] - Quote SHROOM Headshot wrote: The games potential. However, the potency of this draw fades with every second the game doesn't get closer to that potential. An example of this is Dark Souls. The games depth, complexity and potential is high, along with it's learning curve. The game has done wonderfully with balance and updates (IMO) and still has potential to be even greater. It's frustrating to play and deeply rewarding. We'll definitely be seeing more of this with DS2. If Dust can live up to it's potential, provide fun and reasonably balanced gameplay it will (again, IMO) stand out in the pack of FPS games. That's incredible considering the graphics it's up against and the sheer size of player base of other FPS games. Hell, I still play Megaman X-2 for the SNES every couple of years. Why? because that game is fun! That's really the goal afterall. With all due respect fun is relative, people spot trains lol. My idea of fun with dust would make a casual player cry but bring a smile to the hardcore and eve players. My ideas for pc for example would mean only hardcore, eve and dusters in the know about eve would even want to play pc and the casuals would do pubs or corp battles where nothing matters. I don't know why I felt the urge to put that comment, don't ask lol, Level 1 forum warrior. Minmatar and Gallente fw. Fix PC lag please CCP.
Kalisi Marada Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 27	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:14:00 - [33] - Quote I don't play anymore. It is just not fun playing on the same 5 maps all the time. I know where and when to aim and where and when to hide on every map. I even know if I am on the winning or loosing team by looking at the mini mapmap and counting snipers. I am playing Warframe and I am actually happy now. New content every month 7 different types of battles not just 2. Better selection of weapons. A lot more variety in playing. match making actually works. I still log into Dust every day to get my daily bonus. Maybe I will come back in a year or so and see what has happened.

Now just the thought of turning my ps3 on twists my stomach. I'm sitting here looking at it now. I feel sick...... I just wanna sell it and buy some WORKING/COMPLETED ps4 games. Even if this is the answer it's a valid response. If a game doesn't motivate you to play you aren't going to fire it up. In all honesty, I LOVE/d dust! I am just sick of all the broken promises, broken mechanics, messing with things that should have NEVER been touched "drop ship view". What pisses me off more then anything...........Delivery ships. I have lost so many million $ ships cause they get crashed into the side of a building and dropped. Losing a mill+ just fks up the rest of your day. I want nothing to do with a company I can't TRUST. "No bpo's are being removed from player accounts". To me, they are just liar's now. I have almost 30mill sp. I have unlocked everything I wanted. There's nothing left for me in game. 1.7 the BIGGEST patch since release. LMAO Year and a half later 4 boring maps. I could give you a whole list of things that are wrong with dust but you already know them all. After the tenth I probably will never log in again. A Shitstorm is coming...........
Maximus Stryker Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 697	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:18:00 - [36] - Quote Similar Thread 1. Even though the "meaning" and "impact" is limited in its current state, to my knowledge, it is still more than other FPS 2. I like the skill tree and development aspect of the game 3. I like that I have not bought another game and don't have to keep getting a new FOTM game. I play and play and them pay a little then play and play then pay a little. It's not necessarily the costs associated with new games, its the hassle of jumping to FOTM. I like sticking with a game and going along for the ride, even if it is not the "best" ride. 4. My expectations are not as extreme as others and the evolution of the game is currently fine with me 5. I like feeling like I can have an impact within the game (read meta) and also in the actual development of the game *Faction Channels for FW Staging* PIE Ground Control \| Caldari Hierarchy \| Turalyon \| Chosen Matari

Very common problem, open up your ps3, take out screws and open disc drive, apply alcohol to a cotton bud stick and wipe the lens, the problem is caused by the disc shoving dust into the drive every time you put a disc in, check it out as its a certain kind of alcohol, rubbing alcohol i think? But check to make sure. Edit: very gently wipe the lens, very fking gently Level 1 forum warrior. Minmatar and Gallente fw. Fix PC lag please CCP.
IceShifter Childhaspawn DUST University Ivy League 433	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:23:00 - [40] - Quote My hope that one day this game will be the FPS subdivision of EvE. Where our actions will actually have an impact on Highsec and Nullsec policies and politics. Where we can be feared as much from the ground as the goo babies in space. Where an EvE pilot can talk to a ground pounder and think 'This is an ally and a useful partner', instead of 'wtf does this thing want of me?' Hope.

DJINN Marauder Ancient Exiles. Renegade Alliance 3107	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:24:00 - [41] - Quote To be completely honest, the game itself doesn't motivate me in the slightest to play anymore. It's been like this since 1.6 dropped. Only reason I ever get on is to talk and play with friends / corp mates. So my answer is the people that play the game, motivate me to at least log on.

Haerr Molon Labe PC RISE of LEGION 103	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:28:00 - [43] - Quote Motivates me to play? Not sure really... Would I be completly out of line to say that I still believe that at least some of the things that have teased us will be implemented in the game? Also enjoying the corp and the people in it. ... BTW do you think we'll get a decent 1st person view for the dropships any time SoonTM? I prefer not to think of the answers to such questions, maybe that is the key to enjoying this game? Not looking at how good the game could be but rather how fun it is to kill Proto suits with OHKs from plasma cannons! :) But seriously though could you decouple the turret from the view in 1st person view for dropships? Would really make it a lot easier to enjoy the game if at least CCP Devs would say something YES/NO/MAYBE/EVENTUALLY and put up a list where they answer to ideas put up on the forums by the player base. Bitter, butthurt and trying to HTFU.

There are no right or wrong answers. Simply, what motivates you to play Dust? Beginning to wonder that myself I guess I still play because I hope that 1.7 will give us a respec .. if not then all hope will be lost and I'll move on to a different game .. DUST 514 has had a whole year and their are just as many things missing and just as many problems now as there were in BETA ... progress is way too slow and without a respec I have little interest in continuing to put up with it .. life is too short to wait around for something to get good ...

David Spd Caldari State 94	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:31:00 - [46] - Quote I spend more time reading CCP & CPM posts on the forums than I do playing. After big patches I play for a couple hours then don't touch the game untl the next one. Recent TTK actually made the gam more fun for me, since skll and map awareness plays a bigger role, and proto gear isn't an effectve crutch anymore. Overall on my best days Dust is infriating. Even if I'm going 25/0 the game and the people in it ** me off until I'm red with anger and frustration. No other game does this to me. As a result I simply can't stomach playing this game for more than a couple hours a week. It's pretty common for me to refuse to touch Dust for a month, then only play a couple matches before I'm just done. Only thing that motivates me anymore is substantial changes or new content. Dust and CCP have let me down in ways I can't even describe.

Kushmir Nadian Valor Coalition 323	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:48:00 - [49] - Quote Easy answer. The prospect of a quality MMOFPS that truly mattered based in a persistent environment with the history of EVE motivated me. I brought as many people as I could to enjoy the ride...but sadly, it appears it will take a significant amount of time for Dust to deliver on its promise. I don't play anymore (obviously, given the state of the game) but will be among the first to return when its a quality title with the variety, depth and quality we all anticipated. Not a bitter vet, but i'll be back when we have 10 game modes, jets, all racial suits/wpns and EVE has a reason to care.
Pvt Numnutz Ikomari-Onu Enforcement Caldari State 281	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:51:00 - [50] - Quote I've had some of the most intense edge of my seat moments in dust. Some worthy of being in a sci fi action film. I come back to play because few games do dropships and even fewer do them well. While we still have a way to go with dropships the epic moments I've had keep bringing me back for more. The universe is also incredibly rich in interesting stories, every merc has had moments like mine, but with completely different equipment and play styles. Every battle is different and tactics change constantly, you can't just go into a game and expect it to play out the same way every time. Keeps mercs on their toes and pushes their skill in battle. Being a dedicated pilot has been a very hard road. I took a break lately because of my frustration. Mastering a skyshark is an art, like painting while riding a bull, sometimes you just want to give up. However flying is what i do in dust and i love it, no other game gives me the thrill i get when im flying my python in dust. The main reason that I log on and keep my flying skills up is that I have a dream. Every role in dust has had its day in the sun, except the lonely skyshark. one golden day, maps will be vast and the terrain will be difficult to navigate. The dust bunnies will look to the skies asking for a better way, and I will be there to carry them above the carnage. I will be there to return faith to the dropship, to use it for its true intention and make glorious stories I can share. The day that my fellow mercs recognize the usefulness of a true pilot and recognize the hard work so many have struggled with during the uprising. The day when all the months of being blown out of the sky pay off, all the suffering to the hands of those who called dropships a waste of time or flying coffins becomes a thing of the past. The day when a squad of random blueberries jumps at the chance to get in my dropships and knows how to use it. So I log in and keep flying, keep training, for the day that us lucky few, we veteran pilots, can fully shine on that golden day.

Killar-12 The Corporate Raiders Top Men. 1778	Posted - 2013.11.22 21:52:00 - [51] - Quote The Game- PC matches, Hanging out with corpmates, politics, It's free... Forums- You see how many likes I have you should understand... it's also free... Level 1 Forum Warrior I'm a bittervet, if I seem like a douche it's because of your stupidity
Solomon Malcolm BurgezzE.T.F Public Disorder. 53	Posted - 2013.11.22 22:00:00 - [52] - Quote I joined dust because it was free around the time they were giving out codes in July 2012. but as of now, i have lost my motivation. I ONLY get on to play with my corp/squad mates because i can't stand blueberries, and the fact that the same modes get boring. I still love dust no doubt about it, but everyonce in awhile you need to take a one week break to get Motivated again. But the fact that this is the only FPS i have played and stayed with, is something i guess. "You Have Been Scanned" i don't talk much.
Tebu Gan Dem Durrty Boyz 219	Posted - 2013.11.22 22:00:00 - [53] - Quote SP, character development. But what motivates me to play on a given day. I think a lot about dust throughout the day. Yet I typically end up only playing for an hour or so. Maybe just for one game. Before I play I get kinda hyped up, excited you know. But Here lately I get excited, then start reasoning it all out. What am I going to do, what fit, what game mode, ect. Thats when my will to play begins to decline. I start thinking about tanking, and get kinda bummed. It isn't as fun as it was when I started. As in, I don't get that thrill from it I used to. It feels empty. So I play a game (From yesterday) and pull out my speed fit ultra glass cannon gunnlogi and rack up around 800 points off turrets right at the start. AV was light, kept to the corners, shot some infantry with my rail (always sweeeet). End of match, 5-0 over 1000 WP. Next I take a long break, another beer, step out for a smoke, **, then back to dust. In which I sit and ponder if I should play another game. I really really don't. But I think I might, so I say ok, one more. Same thing in this match, kill turrets, kill infantry with my rails. Run from swarms, heal, approach from different angle, attack, repeat. 5-0 and over 1000 WP. Both very good games. Yet I am bored, and uninterested. For as much as I think about dust throughout the day ( checking forums, checking twitter,ect.) you would think I play all the time. But dust has grown stale. I can recall, when I first started back in May, always capping out. I played 4 to 5 hours on the weekdays, and many more on the weekends. But over time, as my character and my skills improved, I grew disinterested. I'm bored. It's the same thing, over and over and over. As I browesed through the fourms, I come to understand dust and it's progress. There is soo much potential here, and honestly, I feel the game is very lacking. The fact that you can kinda consider this beta really puts me off. When I first heard about dust 514, I thought holy **, eve and dust connected. One being a shooter the other a sandbox mmo. So much potential. Then I learn my Eve char, really doesn't interact with the dust bunnies. No P2P market, or a market between dust and eve. No way to support my dust char with my eve char. Eve and Dust 514 might as well be separate games. But in the beginning, I was excited. I saw a bright future ahead for the game. Then the months drag on, and progress has been slow. Patches were small, and never added "content" to the game. Bug fixes, improvements to aiming, blah blah blah. Since release to now, everything has been minor. Your game, CCP is boring. It has been the same thing, every patch. 1.7 is a major Content update, so we shall see. But, again I'm tired of beta testing. The new patch will bring balance problems, bugs, blah blah blah, that will all require another month to fix. So the content, that I feel should have been part of the game from the start, will be many months down the road. I'm really thinking about getting into a new game, but I haven't given up hope. Btw, what motivates me to play, right at this moment, is PC. Which I might be late for! Nuff Said
Mossellia Delt Militaires Sans Jeux 655	Posted - 2013.11.22 22:03:00 - [54] - Quote nothing anymore. I only play because I have an addition.

xLuca Brasi DUST University Ivy League 1	Posted - 2013.11.22 22:48:00 - [55] - Quote nothing since they banned my main for posting about bpo removal.... the fact they cheat us so blatantly make me no longer care about new eden anymore. first it was the nerf to contact nades and aur cal logi suits w/out ANY compensation and now they are removing items I paid real money for AFTER they said they wouldn't. I hope ccp (not just dust) crashes and burns. as soon as I get my ps4 for destiny and TESO im done with dust and im canceling my eve sub.... why wait? nothing else but ff14 to play right now....

Starfire Revo DUST University Ivy League 158	Posted - 2013.11.23 00:44:00 - [57] - Quote I'm motivated to play by wanting to create content around the game. I enjoy making videos for Dust/EVE and want to make more videos of better quality. This includes making guides to help newer players, montage videos, comedy videos and soon, tournament videos. Also motivated to help out friends I've made through both games. I run mostly Gallente FW matches these days to help out the friends I have there. I also like to just chill out sometimes and play with people I know. Dust isn't really a game I can just sit down and play, I need goals or won't even be motivated to even turn my PS3 on. I make videos of EVE and Dust http://www.youtube.com/mrgimbleb I write about EVE and Dust http://mrgimbleb.blogspot.com
The Terminator T-1000 The Praetorian Legionary 60	Posted - 2013.11.23 01:19:00 - [58] - Quote I like the customization, but the game feels very incomplete right now. The hope that the game will eventually get better keeps me motivated to play.
