DUST Search - Announcement:Celebrating One Year on the Ground!

Is there anything to celebrate, CCP?

You have not achieved anything during this year. DUST is the same as it was year ago, only slightly different. In the worst way it could be.

You'd better leave it as it was in chormosome: modest but playable sci-fi clone of bf.

You are not even competing with other shooters. EVE integration still does not work in any reasonable sense... This feature does not change anything in DUST.

It is just infinite loop of boosts and nerfs... This is not a cause to celebrate something.

BTW DUST is almost TWO years old (remember alpha-test?).

It just seems you do not know what to do to keep audience.

But it is very simple. Just do interesting game which it could be. May be. There is little faith in it, to be honest.

How much should we wait till we can gladly celebrate DUST release dates and be sincereley happy that we are wasting our time in this game? One more year?

You are not even giving any hope on how soon will you fix all the bugs, lags and else. I am shy to tell something about new content... PVE, where are you? Arena-mode, assault-mode, trophy room and corporative lobby...? Nope? Same story as it was with Incarna failure.

I remember what it was when it just started - exciting. Exciting to see how game evolves whith new patches. Now it does not.

And your pressies also do not fix that.

It is a milestone that almost pales in comparison to the many amazing achievements of the game and its incredible community, but it is a testament to the dedication of the team and the devotion of its fans. Together, we introduced the EVE universe to an entirely new group of avid gamers. We connected two games, two genres and two platforms into one eternal struggle for control of a universe.

You're right about what the yule lads brought, it was mostly junk. i think I've pretty much sold or reprocessed everything except the shuttle that I got. And except for the 'flavour' items like that Fedo which you can't sell or reprocess. That said I've got a load of worthless junk from the collectors edition sat in one of my main's hangers that I'm reluctant to get rid of for some reason. When I play as a sniper, I'm more likely to be nearer to the opponents redline than my own.

One of these day these gift should be more generous than receiving what the developers favor. Otherwise this isn't really considered as a gift, but another useless garbage to throw with the other junk pile of crap. In the future. I probably speak for several people that might agree when I say; You should really give us non-Amarr users an optional choice of which suit we'd prefer. Or at the very least just give us the ISK or aurum the suit are worth so that we may choose ourselves
