OK - I've just gone into the system and checked your b*******2@hotmail address shows no activity. It is subscribed, though, which I can only assume means Hotmail/MSN are flagging a false positive and sending our mailings straight to spam. Have you checked your spam/promotions/other folders to check for DUST emails?
Have you tried any other email service provider? I know our Gmail subscribers receive them either directly into their inbox or into the 'Promotions' folder.
Let's get this sorted out

The public battles over 3 levels , basic , advanced, prototype, and for example in the basic can only fight with basic suit and basic weapon, and so respectively , that would come in handy for making the battles more leveled between users.
A maximum of 4 vehicles ( cars , navs , tanks ) per team.
Tanks more expensive and less military life , and the more expensive advanced (I'm also tank).
Some new weapons, including a flamethrower
They improve the combat suits , have the logistical and combat prototype gk.0 use the logistic ck.0 prototype , the prototype ck.0 logistics would have to have 4 modules high , and 3 low and prototype combat ck . 0 would have to be 5 high and 4 low .

:Google Translator
That's a lot of stuff for the game itself and not so much for the newsletter - what I can do for the newsletter is to try and include links to videos when they are released, but beyond that your requests probably belong in another thread. I can't, say, ensure a maximum of 4 vehicles per team in my emails.

Do you have a second email address you can try just to check where the issue is? If you can go to the /user page and change it, then verify and see what happens?
If that works - and it should - you should be able to then just change back to your Gmail account, verify that and be in the system just fine.
I'll work with the back-end crew later this month to try and determine what's up here - seems Hotmail and Gmail users are definitely experiencing some problems. Hopefully this will not be something we can't resolve due to it being on the Hotmail/Gmail side of things.
Any other issues you experience, feel free to post in this thread! |

I wouldn't mind getting some new exclusive suits for subscribers, maybe some special weapons, or even some specially colored vehicles. Maybe you could take a vote on what color to make a new dropsuit by giving options. Most voted gets to be a new exclusive dropsuit.
Also wouldn't mind maybe a contest. Like 'Best Perfectly Timed Picture' or even 'Best Dropsuit Design'. Where players could design a Dust Dropsuit.

I love some of the ideas on how to engage players, whether that's with statistics (I was a part of that) or questionnaires or responses to questions or letting key users write advice articles. I think the newsletter should be used as a more formalized way of engaging the community and delivering community content with a little more polish and presentation than we get on the forums, so we can all feel engaged with the game developers and staff.
I don't think any of the rewards have been particularly underwhelming--I like the idea of distributing a handful of AUR weapons, suits, equipment and such so that we get a chance to try out something we don't usually use. The rewards don't need to be "WOW, I got the most awesome thing evar!!!" Just something that helps us engage in some aspect of the game we might not be familiar with. An alternative if it's feasible would be to occasionally feature a fully-fitted STD dropsuit or vehicle using a fit created by a community member.

So what if we combined a few of the last suggestions and ran a competition where users designed a suit, weapon or what have you, and a few of us here at DUST HQ in Shanghai go over the submissions and pick out the winner.
Then, that person gets to put together a fit or pick out a suit/weapon that is then given out as the freeb in the next newsletter subscriber giveaway?
Just throwing it out there - not promising this can be done at this point, as it would rely on quite a few teams here and thus have a number of moving parts that are beyond my control here in the Shanghai editorial pit (read: broom closet and electric typewriter). |

remember that thing Mint Chip used to due, the week in review, do that as a high level version of that. Link to players more. I bet people will be thrilled to find a surprise mention in the newsletter.

Same thing here. I've posted 3 different support tickets, they say its fixed, and wait till the next month to see if I get the newsletter, no joy so far. Little frustrating when you have gear packages or freebies that go with the newsletter.

This would be insanely great. Maybe a competion to design one of those featured fits, like the wolfman suit etc?

CCP Blowout wrote:Good day DUST 514 newsletter readers,
First off - a happy 2014 to all of you! Now, I'm opening this up to the community:
What would you like to see in the newsletters this year?
Every month the DUST 514 big dogs lock me in a dark, cold room until I've churned out the monthly email newsletter, depriving me of food, water and PlayStation 3 access until the job is done. Since I am enduring these conditions for all of you, I figured I may as well produce the emails you want to read - complete with some unique content, free item giveaways exclusive to verified subscribers, latest event information, new in the marketplace notifications and so on...
But what else would you like to read? Let's discuss it in this awesome forum.
SPECIAL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT INCENTIVE PRIZE: First ten replies get to be the next ten posters in this thread!
CCP Blowout - great thread and interaction with the community. +1
Lot's of really great ideas for the newsletters, let me put my vote in for a few areas:
1) A major theme piece that similar to the dev blog features. All subsequent components or sections of the newsletter should generally touch on something in the piece...might not be a hard and fast rule but gives a nice flavor.
2) A piece or two of theme art of images of New Eden as seen by Dust mercenaries.
3) LORE...definetly some of this. New Eden has a pretty deep and complex well of back ground lore and it would be nice to begin putting some additional bricks in that wall. Even little things such as how Ishakone came to produce many "assault" variant items (perhaps due to Gallente or Minmatar influence) or how their relationship with the Minmatar drew them to producing SMGs for them. Essentially you could expand on some the threads or nuggets in the fluff descriptions for weapons, dropsuits, kit already in Dust.
4) ProTips from the Devs. Highlight a few nuggets of how some equipment or weapons might interact in ways that might not be obvious to players. Players view things from the perspective of how does a given item or action effect things and Devs tend to look from the point of view of how do items interact with things...subtle for distinct difference.
5) Stats are fascinating for many (not necessarily me) but lots fo my buddies that play really dig them so I think having some gratuitous nerdgasms in there would be ok.
6) I really like the dropsuit contest idea. I would further recommend that an operational description with some lore or character fluff be requried for the submission and a description of the "paintjob". The winning set up would be a subsequent newsletter giveaway dropsuit down the road. I do recommend setting parameters for level of suit set up. I recommend proto setup BUT make sure the dropsuit can be used with minimal to no skills. Give out no more than 10 of the suits.
7) A couple trivia questions on Dust, CCP, New Eden, some of our favortie Devs.
8) A give away item (seperate from the aforementioned dropsuit) that is tied to the newsetters theme.
LAST ITEM...i would really like to actually recieve the newsletter! I'm also one of the folks that has a very sketchy time actually recieving the newsletter.

concept art from things being worked on that may or may not be going into the game. keeps us knowing you are still playing around with new ideas and they look good. sparks some conversations
it doesn't even need comments.. just keep us guessing to what it is or its purpose. 1 per month shouldn't be hard to find. i'm sure there is alot of it we have never seen and we get to see some of the ideas that never made it into the game aswell
