Whoa, whoa whoa.
Honestly, that sort of language really doesn't make me overly excited about interacting with this thread. BUT, to address and acknowledge some of your points:
- Matchmaking does have it's issues. I've even been in squads with some of you when it's occurred so I know that feel, bro. We're aware of it and working on a fix, but I can't give you an ETA just yet.
- The learning curve is steep, and being thrown in to matches against people who faceroll you isn't fun. We're aware of that and it's something we want to fix.
- No, 1.8 is not coming this month due to the Holidays.
- These are legitimate concerns about the game and I'm hearing you. But, threatening language really doesn't entice Developer interaction. Not everybody has thick skin. :) We play and love our game to death, and want it to be fun and accessible for all kinds of players. I'll do what I can to keep you guys updated.

How do you reconcile this with the Dust's setting, New Eden, home to the most cut throat MMO ever? The learning curve in EVE is much more steep and there is potential to run into people who will faceroll you every time you load a new grid (even a cloak CovOps slowboating into scram range). We're told to HTFU in EVE.
Isn't the fact that matchmaking needs to exist in Dust at all a sign of a failure to integrate with EVE?
This is an interesting question: New Eden is meant to be harsh. But - although they both live in the space place - EVE and DUST are ultimately separate games, with different player bases and needs.
Where HTFU may be an answer to some of EVE's concerns, that doesn't always transcend over in to DUST where the nature of our player demographic (and ultimately our game) should be more accessible - particularly to newer players. That doesn't mean that there won't be situations where HTFU won't be a viable answer in DUST...we just need to make sure it's done appropriately.

It's funny because those threads always get blue tags while decent threads get unanswered, so think about it...what message are you really sending out?

Yeah the dev post supported your argument like woah. My point is that you're ignoring the thousands of critical threads that devs didn't bother interacting with.
Mithridates is right. We do our best to respond to much of the constructive feedback we see - but would you rather I had never responded to this thread at all? We read and patrol our forums on a daily basis - some of us arguably spend more time on here than you lot ;)
New suggestions and bug reports are pulled in to a report which is then presented to both the QA and Development teams for their feedback and analysis. The results are then posted publicly, which can generally be found here: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=34744&p=3
Just to reiterate: it's one thing to be chastised for not responding, but totally another to think that you can elicit a response by using threatening language towards Devs. Not all of us have thick skin, and while some of us may brave it to continue posting, I promise you'll get better results if you play nice.

PvE is something that we've stated numerous times publicly that we'd love to do. CCP Rouge in particular is very keen on this!
But - we don't want to rush and push something out the door if it's not ready. It might take a while, but when we do release it we want to be satisfied with where it's at.
