The real problem is not the tanks or weapons or suits! The real problem is that CCP keeps introducing more and more without fixing the original problems. Scotty is still a freakin mess, for example, why does it keep putting people in a game that has two clicks left, why doesn't it put you on the warbarge anymore before skirmishes and dominations and it sure is hell isn't keeping the playing field even! Once a game is 3/4 over you shouldn't be put in that game unless you get an option in settings or something. I want a fresh game every time! The game still dc's which has cost me soooo many tanks and drop ships and suits that it is rediculous! By now you would also think the game would stop locking up my ps3 and giving people fatal error codes!!!! I just finished a game in amazement as I watched as anyone on my team went to attack the enemy's tank the game went into the worst lag I've ever seen, but only when his tank was attacked. (Best use of lag switch I've ever seen) Why can't this be stopped! I am still watching people just sitting under their MCC or at their base doing nothing the entire game. I thought you were supposed to be kicked. Can they still be point farming (isk or sp)? It used to be murder taxis and now you have guys taking free lavs, free suits, and attaching explosives so when they run into your tank(no matter what kind of tank) you automatically blow up! Which is total B.S.!!! Even in real life if a jeep ran into a tank nothing would happen to the tank fix so you can't put explosive on lav! So please, for god sakes, before you build another suit, make a new vehicle, add another fully covered map, or even think about producing a new weapon, do you think you could fix the mechanics of the game that has been brought to your attention on numerous occasions by multiple people. In fact, the next build should be nothing, but fixing game mechanics. There is nothing worse than shooting at a guy who is in front of you and as the bullet is about to hit him/her, watching your guy fall to the ground because you just took a bullet to the back of the head by that same guy because of a glitch or lag! Thank you for your time. P.S. To all the trolls that won't even pay attention to what was just said. I already know my grammer, punctuation, and sentence structure stinks...thank you very much! I also know I am not perfect and neither are the devs. This is merely my suggestion to get dust back on track because whether anyone wants to admit it or not... it is severely off tracks right now. |

Please make some proper paragraphs!!! And possibly proper punctuation I haven't read far enough so see if the punctuation is bad.

there are 2 issues basically:
1) lack of players: eve-offline.net/?server=dust
solution: release dust on pc, its big brother is on pc, i dare to say 2/3 of eve would play it if it where on pc, and, shooters naturally belong to pc.
2) CCP shanghai doesnt learn from CCP Reykjavik, lots of mistakes that ccp has made on eve, some of them cost them quite much (see incarnageddon), are being comited again on dust, which imho seems so ******* stupid.

Fix Jihad Jeeps? No, not until regular AV is viable. In real life if a jeep ran into a tank nothing would happen? Yeah, well in real life even the best tanks can't stand up to more than 2-3 anti-tank missiles. |

IDK I have had a lot more fun playing console shooters than PC Shooters. Adding A PC version may fix a large number of issues though not the least of which being player count.

Agreed. If you look at what they just did with vehicles, there were many other options open to them, instead they made tanks absolutely the most OP thing ever and instead of adding more different types of modules there are less and more powerful modules. Looking at armor hardeners specifically they *SHOULD* be damage specific, having one hardener cover all types of damage is ridiculous, just looking at Eve modules I know that CCP Shanghai stays well away from anything involving saving themselves programming time. All the tanking modules, damage mods and even PG/CPU mods have baseline modules that could have been used and if not used completely the same, then at least scaled down according to the base attributes of the drop suits. Smoking the Aurum Pipe has got the devs thinking they need to do something completely new, which is absolutely not the case. They are free to port over CCP assets from Eve to use in Dust, no one would complain. Anyone else remember seeing the burning pieces of the Titan on the battlefield?

By the way before you get flooded , with the next patch as well as improvements , it would be nice to have all of the racial fits and gear as well as the vehicles ( which the vehicles should have been dropped with 1.7 but since the ones that were dropped were not all that great and needs fine tuning as well I can't be mad ) and all will be fine .
CCP you would have such a change in how the community approaches this game as well as the influx that is desired that it would seem like a whole different game and one where most are WELL PLEASED .

How quickly people forget.... The US lost tons of tanks to Datsun pickup trucks driving in circles with guys using shoulder fired AV back when Carter was president. Never has it been wise to run around in a real tank when there is only enemy infantry around...the tank will get destroyed eventually. Jihad Jeeps make me laugh....saw one get a dropship last night :) |

I work as an underpaid nurses' aide myself, but I can still afford to use the "enter" button at least once while writing.
Take an honest look at your wall of text and maybe you'll see why so few care to read it.
As for your argument, I'll play devil's advocate: imagine first that the elements of the game are perfectly balanced, and the game is a masterpiece with what it has now. Then, the devs add some new content. Wouldn't that upset the balance? Wouldn't everything have to be readjusted to accommodate the new features, bugs, and exploits that come with new content? Why should the devs go balls to the wall just fixing everything if they're going to have to re-fix a lot of it later with new content?
Another relevant question: how long are you willing to play with the same old **** until everything gets fixed? I've played for a year and I've had to stop playing repeatedly out of sheer boredom.
Yes, things need fixed. We need new stuff too. It shouldn't be all one or the other, because then we lose somehow either way. |

Listen up people. If I chose to write this as a text, then that is my prerogative... not yours. If you don't like it, well in short, up yours! Now, back to the intelligent part of the post( in text form...deal with it!) I have been playing longer than most of you and I understand the want(not the need) for new equipment, but the issues listed have been the same problems since the first build! If you fix these issues, then when you incorporate new equipment and new issues occur it is much easier to center in on the issues at hand and what is causing them. Left alone, the issues and bugs actually compile and they are harder to fix. It would be like you trying to be a nurse without taking biology 101, but getting new equipment and being told to just do your job. You couldn't because you were missing the basic building blocks. By the way this is an opinion of a much larger group than just myself. I am not stating a fact. This is an educated opinion of a group of people(some programmers of other games) and i am just trying to be the voice. Happy killing! |

If I was guaranteed not to be sued, then yes, I would try to be a nurse without taking biology 101. lol.
All kidding aside, CCP is in a very difficult situation right now. On one hand they really need to hurry up in implementing the promised new material. Pilot Suits have been sitting empty for far too long. But on the other, there are so many things wrong right now, that if they focused on everything they have to fix then we would probably not see anything new for a really long time.
I don't envy any of the people working for CCP... well, except maybe the artists. I bet they have fun visualizing new suits/guns/ worlds etc. |

I respond at the risk that you'll think I'm simply attacking you. I'm not, and I hope that you'll read to the end of my post, but I'll go ahead in any case.
Let's start near the end.
DJINN Axeman wrote:By the way, when you argue someone's post for anything other than its content...you are trolling!
Sometimes, trolling will argue with content as well. Although I was sharp about it, I thought I was trying to impart an item of wisdom about how you might better persuade people with your writing. That was the point of your creating this post... to persuade people of your opinion?
Simply put: place a paragraph between each sentence, as long as they might be a bit unrelated. This isn't too hard, even on a smartphone (where I typed this), but it *will* help others read what you have to say.
DJINN Axeman wrote:You couldn't because you were missing the basic building blocks. By the way this is an opinion of a much larger group than just myself. I am not stating a fact. This is an educated opinion of a group of people(some programmers of other games) and i am just trying to be the voice.
I agree, but the DUST devs have had their day in the sun. They've had every opportunity to create a AAA shooter for well over a year now, and while I understand their difficulty in doing so, you'll see (should you see some of my other posts) that I am also not very forgiving of their shortcomings.
At the moment, their problem is twofold: they need to fix the game they've created, and they need to maintain some interest in it so as many old players will stay as possible, and so new players will be excited enough to stick around despite their disadvantages, thinking there's something new on the horizon which they can exploit as well as older players as there is in EVE, where less than a months' training can fly specialized ships like the rest of them.
I have seen many of the same problems for most of the same time, but if this game is to survive past 2015, then it has the dual challenge of keeping both older and newer players, and for that, the best course in my opinion is to split the difference between creating new content and fixing old problems.
Let's remember that their business model relies on people volunteering to give their money to DUST in as large numbers as possible, and that requires making you (veteran player) and I (somewhat-less-veteran player) and any other player- new or old- that they possibly can as excited about the future as this game as possible that most will choose to fork over some dollars to further the cause.
I would like to see this as much as you. I just happen to see that it requires more than simply single-minded consolidation of the pieces of which DUST is already comprised.
DJINN Axeman wrote: Left alone, the issues and bugs actually compile and they are harder to fix. It would be like you trying to be a nurse without taking biology 101, but getting new equipment and being told to just do your job.
You'd be shocked how many nurses would fail bio 101 if they were tested about it today. If you respect educated opinions as you suggest, then I offer this one as someone who certainly would not fail bio 101, and although while nurses stick you with needles and give you meds, all I've done is wipe asses and hold hands.
I'll admit that I took something from your post personally: you don't have to be ignorant to enjoy "menial" or "blue collar" work, and menial work is no excuse for ignorance. I am indeed a very highly-educated person, but if you ever found me in my normal workplace, then I'd feel sad for you for being so stricken with cancer, and you'd thank your lucky stars because I'd make up for the things in life that you take entirely for granted. There's nothing that makes me- Mr. Northeastern-Liberal-College-Educated- happier than helping with pooping and standing and feeling like you have any hope for tomorrow.
If I can lay myself to waste to help anyone who's happened to appear in front of my face, then I really don't think I'm asking too much for you to press "enter" after you press "period," since it makes it easier for me to read what you're trying to say.
In case you hadn't noticed, I am still going out of my way to understand your post. I'd be grateful if you seemed a little less dismissive of mine.

Do you understand what might very well be the need for a player who is newer (much less, different) than you?
The fixing and rebalancing of this game will be ongoing as it is for EVE; remember that EVE only started tiericide last fall, more than 10 years after the game started, and that balancing this game as well is likely to be a walk up the down escalator. Nowadays, the Omen has a niche as much as a Maller, and an Augoror has any at all. I can hold the faith if you can. |

To you, too. The same is true whether we meet as friendly or foe.
I hope you take my posts in the spirit that they are given: one of camaraderie and collegiality and intellectual honesty.
The simple truth is that not everyone agrees with you as you see it. We- and others such as I- agree on much, though.
I like what you say, but I just don't think it's the whole answer to what CCP needs to do.

Allow me to explain what has transpired here. I had told my programming friends about this game and this forum. I explained that most, not all, of the people that reply on these forums usually don't acknowledge the content of the posts, but instead, usually attack the author for minor things such as grammer, punctuation, sentence structure and so forth. While the opinion in this post is my own, it was used to show them exactly what I had meant.
Firstly, I owe everyone on here a great apology. The last reply on this post was that of my friend while I was in my shower. She is not very tactful and couldn't believe how fast someone derailed off topic just to "teach" someone else an English lesson. I never would have attacked anyone or told anyone up theirs! I am an ordained Reverend and it is not in my nature. So please omit that entry.
Second, to the nurse, I never meant to degrade you, your occupation, or your education. I, myself, have had quite a few years of college including one year at Ursuline College. It is a highly renowned college for nursing. I came to the realization that I could not do what you do for a living because it bothered me too much to see people in pain. I think that what you do is highly commendable and I thank you for your service to the public. Also, my sister is a nurse. So, I get it. :)
Now I would like to offer a little bit of information about myself to those of you that feel that I am unqualified to write a forum post. I write reviews for many products and establishments in my area and on the internet. Yes, people pay me. Therefore, I know exactly what I am doing, but thank you for your unwanted criticism anyway. I only state it that way because I did state I knew it was incorrect and i did ask that people not respond negatively because of this issue. Yet, people felt the urge to do so anyway, if out of spite. If I was writing a book, music, a letter or review, then I would use proper English and structure.
The fact of the matter is that this is a forum with posts that are written by people of all ages. This includes children and I find it amusing that people are quick to judge and criticize someone that they know nothing about aside from a screen name. A post can be written in any form as it is someone's thoughts and opinions. It would be quite different if the criticisms were about the ideas or content, but it usually is not.
It also kills me how fast people derail off topic and switch topics. They should just start there own topic i.e. proper grammer instead of ruining someone else's post and then harassing them about a completely different subject.
Back to the post, I have been around to watch every build and have watched many a great player come and go because of these issues. For example, they spent quite a bit of money on the game to watch their vehicles, weapons, suits, and modules(bought with said money) lost with every dc or freeze. While I understand the need to keep people enthusiastic about the game, we deserve a game that functions correctly. If you are telling me that you would quit if they took one build to fix these issues and equipment would come one build later, then I would call you a liar. You would stay for one more build because they keep putting off then pilot suits, yet here you are anyways. We have put up with these issues far too long and it does nobody any good when you get a new pilot suit, spec into it, pay for it and they take it away because it is making the old glitches worse. They have pretty much done this to me build after build. So I do understand. I want new things too, but I want them to work.
I realize that not everyone will agree with me. This post is for the people that do agree. As for the people that don't agree with me. This is a chance for them to make an educated rebuttle and possibly help by coming up with a better solution. Just telling someone that their "opinion" is wrong is very judgemental and hurtful. Especially if your rebuttle is vague, has no information, or has no research to back it.
While this is a game about killing it is not too far fetched to request that we respect other people's opinions, how they do things and respond tactfully to their posts. For all you know you are degrading a six year old on a forum.
Anyway, I hope I have explained myself and meant no harm in this process. As my friend said, "Happy Killing!" and let's all make a point to just be nicer to one another. |

Imagine a dropship just making a strafing run (1 run) and being able to shred a tank? Nevermind the damage a RPG and bazooka or a jtag will do. Most tanks can't take more than 1 round without poping. I think the US and Britan are the only countries that build tanks tough enough to withstand such a hit.

Okay, good point. I will try and rebute what you are saying so bear with me. In your own statement you just claimed the USA and Britain have tanks to handle this. I would hope that in the future, where there is space travel and clones, we could build a tank to handle a small explosive jihad lav. Just saying. To be honest, this was the weakest point on my post. The most important part is stopping the game from dc's and freezing up all of the time. So we stop losing equipment! Oh and fixing my biggest nemesis...Scotty! If they concentrated on fixing those three things this game would be sweet! Again, just my opinion. |

When i speak about shooters, i mean quake2, quake3, unreal tournament, enemy territory, oldschool counter strike, maybe even call of duty 1 and battlefield 1, not these call of dutys and battlefields of today xD they are so............. i understand that you might have played counter strike 1.6 sometimes but as a newbie, you wouldnt have had much fun on those games where most of the people is old school and know all the tricks, and jumping techniques, etc. it might be frustrating, but let me assure you, counter strike has the best hitdetection ever, you knew when you shot a gun where each bullet was going, where was it hitting, it was even the expression on the cs slang that "this server smoke bullets", the level of skill one could achieve was so high that one could instinctively learn how the recoil worked on each weapon that you could rectify it with your own skill, see this video to see what i mean, the first spray shows where the bullets go without rectifying it, the second is with rectifying, this is one of the best 1.6 players, not to say the best, you wont see this on any other game, and its just because the old school shooters where not only about the graphics, but to make players become real experts.

If you look at what they just did with vehicles, there were many other options open to them, instead they made tanks absolutely the most OP thing ever and instead of adding more different types of modules there are less and more powerful modules. Looking at armor hardeners specifically they *SHOULD* be damage specific, having one hardener cover all types of damage is ridiculous, just looking at Eve modules I know that CCP Shanghai stays well away from anything involving saving themselves programming time. All the tanking modules, damage mods and even PG/CPU mods have baseline modules that could have been used and if not used completely the same, then at least scaled down according to the base attributes of the drop suits. Smoking the Aurum Pipe has got the devs thinking they need to do something completely new, which is absolutely not the case. They are free to port over CCP assets from Eve to use in Dust, no one would complain. Anyone else remember seeing the burning pieces of the Titan on the battlefield?
Well, i see what youre saying about damage types, it would be more lore friendly and it would be more consistent between eve and dust right? but the vehicles have less slots than frigates so i dont see how one could fit two invuls, 1 em resistance amplifier and 1 thermal rig on a caldari tank, a shield extender to give more hp pool and a shield booster, and of course an afterburner (overdrive in this case), i just dont see how it could, because they just dont have enough slots...
One thing that really amuses me about CCP Shanghai from the last patchnotes is that super "We have improved evhicle phisics"......... WTF armor tanks, wich weight tons can jump like if they where motocross bikes... xD LAV's they dont have springs, you get a lil' pump of the road and well... it just becomes a rolling car... but hey, it only takes 40% of its shields, and on the 1st roll, the 4 other rolls dont do camage... same happens when you go at max speed and hit a wall, from the front, what would wreck any vehicle, it again only loses 40% of its shields, but instead, if i just slightly scratch a HAV, i explode... its so stupid, its so barely programmed that makes me wonder if the devs have played their game at least one time...
See you from orbit

But from a few years now, aaaaall games have no recoil, starting at battlefield 2, and call of duty 2, they dont have any kind of jump tricks, i can understand that games don't have jump tricks, one cannot really change direction on the air, its just phisics, but recoil? cmon, there are some beretta shotguns that have almost no recoil, but they are designed to do so, get a steyr aug, get a g36, those weapons are modern weapons and they have recoil, but not on games... And games dont need to be simulators like ARMA or Red Orchestra, when i mean recoil, those are combat simulators, but a lil bit of recoil, where you must stop shooting to be accurate after 3 or 4 bullets would increase the TTK and require more skill, and well, Aim Assistance is another issue, that and Rail Rifle its just a bad joke. While I agree that the old games were on PC (old Wolfenstein player not 3D, quake, some Rainbow Six) I feel the power of immersion with a DS3 controller is significantly better. It puts feedback in your hands and allows your direct movements to influence the outcome of a battle rather than a bunch of keyboard button pushes. Maybe I am just deluding myself.

Have you ever played NFS Most Wanted? The statement made by CCP is relevant and true only if this was their plan, so to them it is improved. On the other hand there are certain improvements that should be made but haven't been because tanks are so expensive and tankers would cry or something similar, for instance I like the thought about a dropship being able to strafe and kill a tank. I like seeing tanks exploding, they should be situationally useful not the I don't want to die so I'll drive a Sica solution.
