It has a few, nothing comapred to build 7 of uprising but a few.Doesnt matter though its fun, thats why I game.
Bf4 has surprised me with how tactical it seems to play, its not run n gun like cod because of all the elements at place. If you love ds or tanks in dust you will love, helis, jets, tanks, apc, gunships in bf4, I do anyway.

The biggest stumbling block I often see with big-name shooters is the fact that each and every one of them has a new release that doesn't carry over what you did in the previous release. Dust may have a myriad of problems right now but it does have something these other shooters don't have. The ability to make your progress stay meaningful so to speak.

Imagine reaching the highest level in Halo 3 only to have to start all over again in Halo 4. Once you have earned Mastery and reach SR130, then what? Halo 5 comes out on Xbox One and then all that goes down the drain because now you start over. The same for Call of Duty where you reached the highest prestige in Black Ops, but then Ghosts comes out and now you have to start over and unlock everything you had before for the upteenth time.

Everything you did in the previous release no longer matters and that is what really drives me away from these big-name games. Yes, Dust is incomplete and it has a long ass way to go. But at least my progress transfers over to the next expansion and I don't have unlock everything for the upteenth time like in CoD for as long the Tranquility server is running. That's what I like to call "game data persistence".

You have no idea how sick and tired I am with games that have me unlock the same thing over and over again with each new release even though I have been a supporter of those games for a long time.

It's funny that a friend of mine showed me this one game called Patapon and she finally finished it. As soon as she got Patapon 2, I was like "look's like she's starting over". Then she found out that you can transfer your progress from the first version to the second version. She was all psyched out and she had tons of fun playing the game. Unfortunately when Patapon 3 came out it didn't have that feature due to the new format of the game which rendered the old game data incompatible. Oh well.

NOTE: Patapon is not a shooter or MMO. It's just a portable game for the PSP.

INFINITE DIVERSITY IDIC Intara Direct Action Caldari State 212	Posted - 2013.12.28 15:47:00 - [1] - Quote Ive lost alot of my enthusiasm for it, Ive been playing BF4 the last few days and its really fun, COD Ghosts sucks, but bf4 with its vehicle selection huge choices of weapons and gear, huge maps with trees and grass, free xp boosts, no isk requirements and graphics, made me lose my log in bonus, first time in months. Im still a DUSTY but the change of pace is nice, you do have health and ttk is about the same, plus you have all of the logi elements, plus AWESOME vehicles you dont have to pay for. The game play of dust just doesnt flow yet, battles arent dynamic, even with all of our choices there are many built in limitations that force scenarios and map play to be repetive both in style and outcome. In conclusion dust is getting better, but if you want a fun break, hit me up and lets roll to bf4.

It's just that this game is no longer fun. It hasn't been for like 2 months now. In fact I don't think I ever actually had fun "playing" this game since 1.4 dropped (AA/Scout stamina nerf) I had fun.. But that was mostly just playing with friends and stuff. The game itself wasn't really doing anything fun. Regardless though yeah this game has improved slightly.

A lot of people have severely mismanaged their expectations with DUST and many react as if every update to the game is the final build. If you can't chill the duck out and play a game that has been stated from the start as a huge work in progress then go play finished retail shooters like BF4.

BF4 will be fine once they release the first big patch. Name one big game that has not had a multitude of issues upon its release.

Sometimes it is refreshing to start over. Besides, it gives new BF players a chance to start out on even ground rather than discourage new folks from ever playing your game. What's the matter? Are you afraid to play a game where everyone has the same level of health and no wuss bag shields to hide behind?

Agreed, plus playing the big shooters can help your Dust game, since on max sensitivity bf4 and cod both turn aim and look much faster than Dust.
