RTS (real time strategy) is more like Starcraft and Command and Conquer.

I know what a RTS is, thanks.

I mean, that was the aspect that initially got me interested in the game.

Is this a future feature? Like an extra game-mode that they will ad?

The only RTS aspect of Dust was supposed to be the "Commander mode", in which you give orders to teammates and support your team with orbital support (cru's, supply depots, turrets, ect.)

You can expect this feature coming no earlier than 2019.
And yes it will be broken and buggy as hell.

This is what I mean actually.
I remember gameplay footage of spawn points and turrets being dropped from orbit.

So It was scrapped then?.... :/

Well thanks for your help, people.
I won't probably be sticking around.

Ryme Intrinseca The Rainbow Effect 306	Posted - 2013.12.04 09:31:00 - [7] - Quote PC means there technically is an RTS element as attacks (=strategy) are made in real time. It's similar to the strategic level of games like XCOM, where the clock keeps ticking, so it's technically real time, though in practice the time element is not that important. I guess you meant something more like the soonTM commander mode?

There are plans to bring the commander mode back at some point. But that will be EVENTUALLYGäó more likely than SOONGäó. Check back in a year or two, and don't forget the game exists. It will probably be a feature sometime after the game moves onto the PS4.

Looks like Petursson was actually talking about the Eve players as the RTSers. Here's the full quote from Gamespot: 'According to Petursson, the game will be a first-person shooter/real-time strategy hybrid that will take place on the planets within Eve Online. "The primary gameplay features brutal ground combat that takes place on the surface of planets," said Petursson. "Dust 514 is the infantry, and an Eve Online player can contract a Dust team to go in and take control of a planet. The fleet does the flying, the infantry does the dying," he joked, in reference to Paul Verhoeven's 1997 sci-fi film version of Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers'. We already have that, in the limited sense that capsuleers drop OBs (which requires strategy on their part to get safely into orbit). Of course, the stuff about Eve players hiring mercs never really happened. The quote above doesn't seem to be referring to the commander role (the dude dropping spawns and turrets), which is Dust-side as I understand it.
