 THE GOOD
 With cooperative teammates, it's occasionally a reasonable facsimile of better shooters
 Weapons are imaginative sci-fi spins on the usual suspects
 
 THE BAD
 Low frame rate and muddy textures hamper gameplay and aesthetics
 Poorly designed maps with little attention to scale, flow, or originality
 Cumbersome menus and customization systems
 Link to EVE Online and its lore is mostly theoretical

 That is by far the best review of dust iv seen yet and sums up exactly why 1.7 was the final straw for me this needs to be shoved into the face of the designs so dust can go under a radical rethink if not a complete reworking

 It is a realistic score. Very good OBJECTIVE review.

 He has some good points, but glossed over a fair amount.
 
 Eve integration is very real. We have pilots on comms for FW regularly. They are even fighting to hold grid and keep red strikers off us.
 
 He makes noise about Eve's success but no mention of all the badposting and doomsaying reviews for the first few years of Eve's development.
 
 I don't think he played for long, and I really doubt he enlisted in a corp at all.

 EDIT: I don-Št understand why the CCP DEVs were calling this game AAA during the beta. Its not up to the DEVs to say that before they have delivered and gotten reviews saying AAA from decent reviewers...
 And this is why Team Kong, the team responsible for hands-on mechanics and controls, need to be given more support/resources/tools by CCP - it's their work that drives the ability of DUST to get good reviews and for the game to be sustainable in the long-term.
 
 Anything that is currently on Team Kong's plate that is getting in the way of this and the NPE should be split off to a new team. There's really no hope of DUST overcoming the negative reputation it's earned without Team Kong masterfully executing on core mechanics. The longer this is delated the deeper the hole DUST will have to dig itself out of.

 I keep seeing people say "but I bet they didn't join a corp" But I've been here since closed beta and never joined a corp.

I'm not talking about the miniscule 1.7 one. I mean the one that happened around 1.2 or so. They're showing readers months old footage along with the article as if it where the current state of the game. That's because it's not that different.
 
 The only noticeable part really is that they changed the WP "+50" messages, and the ragdolls.

 the tutorial in dust sucks. even eve uses bots for combat tutorial. people wouldnt have these issues if they had controlled environments where they didnt have to worry about being shot at just to learn the game.
 
 the biggest noob in all of dust is CCP

 My impression is that they were stating a goal/intent, not describing the game as it is/was.
 
 RDVs are a failed experiment - can't we just remove them from the game? |

 My impression is that CCP are cocky at presentations and then they deliver a 4/10 game patch after patch.
 When will dust get guuuud?

 He makes some excellent points in that review. I don't agree with the incredibly low score though. That is generally a score reserved for buggy, unplayable messes. Dust is very playable right now as long as you are in a Tank or enjoy medium suits.
 
 Overall the score seems to be typical of bitter eve overlord hatred of Dust. He is spot on about the map design though. I've never once felt like a Dust map was well designed. But this is a company that, until now, created nothing but empty space with a couple planetary bodies to warp to. The newer maps show a bit more thought to flow and three dimensional battle space, but they still feel like someone just randomly dropped objectives around the map.
