Hi CPMs / Candidates
I was just wondering if you could share some of your views on priorities.
Between core mechanics, new content, PvE, integrated player market and the slew of other things DUST 514 will need, what do you think is important. I would like to hear your honest opinions, good or bad.
Mine would be as follows.
1. Core mechanics.
Bugs, frame drops and general performance need to be smoothed ASAP. The lag in PC at times can be terrible as mentioned by various clones. Fatal errors and instability only add to this, making player retention harder when the game kicks them. Matchmaking is also problematic for NPE, using high/low-sec models from eve would allow players to adjust and learn an ever changing battle field.
2. Content.
Racial variants for all existing assets would help bring the MMO to basic levels. Having a full inventory will keep players busy with exploring fits and play styles for a long time. It would also make the universe feel more alive and productive, because honestly, the Amarr and Minnmatar are slacking. This would include everything from drop suits to warbarges.
3. Integrated Market.
Linking with EVE is what brought me here. Having our economies linked will give EVE pilots a lot more reasons to be interested and supportive of DUST. And vice versa. Allowing us to trade, buy and sell across platforms would allow EVE pilots to sell assets and pay for contracts. This is essential for a robust FW and would pave the way for MMO play.
4. PvE.
The importance of these game modes cannot be underestimated or rushed. This is where alliances, corps, mercs and pilots could truly have a meaningful link. This is probably the most flexible area in the game. Sabatoge, procurement, exploration, defence and attack missions are just the tip of the iceberg. Imagine a linked network where advertisements of corps, available contracts ( DUST and EVE ) and shady deals could be found and made. 'The Worm Hole'. So cliche, so subversive.
Thank you in ADV for sharing.
