Wait! Do you think those three examples out of many were made up just to be cynical??
Sadly those three examples all are real.
Thousands asking for new guns, maps, weapons, game modes, suits, vehicles, etc. Folks asking about increasing the per game numbers from 24 V 24 to 32 V 32
1 single post , ONE single post, ONE!! SINGLE!!! post!!!! asked about better VISUALS!!! i.e. make the game LOOK BETTER!!
And what did CCP do???
The good:
They made it look better in the E3 build.
The BAD: They dropped 24 versus 24 players and delayed or broke most other things since a boost to graphics created a hit to performance in most other areas.
The UGLY: Folks starting to get tired of 16 versus 16.

Partly because of 1.7, mostly because of 1.8, and again partly because all of the new games like Ghosts and Battlefield 4 are finally starting to get old/boring for some people, while Dust is an everchanging always expanding game.
1.MAG died so theres a good probability that Dust is seeing an influx of players from that defunct game??
Dust expanding??
Numbers baseline: Ps3 at 70 million equals 4000 peak dust numbers.
Ps3 at 80 million equals 15% growth in PS3 numbers sold.
4000 plus 15% (600) needs to equal 4600 for Dust baseline of 4000 at 70m to equal 80m PS3.
So if Dust were a constant 4600 peak then its stable.
Dust growth means a constant rise above 4600 from 5000 or more.
So is Dust growing, stable or dropping player counts??

That includes eve players.
Dust players are steady at about 4k players a day average. Zero growth.

We all hope this game prospers, but we must stay forum vgilante as we've seen, with 1.7, that CCP can **** up!
what a positive outlook you have...

This is silly. As far as battlefield being finished, sure, it's battlefield alright. I could play that game for about 2 weeks before I got so bored I had to log back into dust, and I was division 1 in tanks. It was a lot of shiny, horribly stupid players, and very lacking game play.
Curious that you would say having a lot of sp is a crutch, considering a rookie out of the academy can get into a decent role that can still kill 21mil sp players. Max scrabler operation is max scrambler operation. He can be an effective soldier. In battlefield you have the typical keep playing and leveling till you get the best stuff. I hate that. Oh boy I hope I get a good gun this level, oh crap....its a piece of sh!t, awesome now grind until next level. Then again, there is less meaning in battlefield, you don't have to worry about if you die or not, you don't have to worry about loosing your tank or helicopter, you don't have to worry about winning or loosing or anything really. That's fun for some people, I find it boring. too much shiny, not enough content.
Oh also why are they having player appreciation month again? Its not cause they fu*ked up right?
Seriously though, this isn't about "the patch that will save dust" stop being an idiot. This is a patch that's taking dust in the right direction. When dust is much better in the coming months and years I hope players like you don't return, I hope you stay with your shiny until they release bf5 and bf6 while we are launching massive land and space campaigns across nullsec blowing up space ships and actually doing something. |

I just met a new player a few days ago, actually, and she said she's enjoying speccing as a Logistics player. It was reaching 4k because of the SP event and there are new players everyday meeting one now doesn't mean much. It most likely got 4.5k because it a little after the SP event and it is a weekend, if the pop reaches 4.5 k the next week and the following week then it might be experience growth.
2 months ago 3500 was a peak. now it's an off-time. i'm happy about that. |

trust me, dust is heading the same way bf is going. ie basic gear is decent enough to win 1 v 1's and sp/shiny unlocks don't give much power. btw let me know when you make it top 10 for division 3(state). just accept it, you can't improve without base set down and dust just doesn't have it. maybe after that 10 year plan, and even after 10 years i still don't like EVE one bit, so don't get your hopes up for a large player base or things that require it, IE match maker. my personal favorite game for a few years running was urban terror but times change and things get better and worse.
i love how talking about a different game stirs you guys up, like there is nothing but dust when dust has taken other games to make up its design. fanboys will be fanboys till they are the only ones left.

this game is not really new or innovative. It is a next Gen version of battle front. Without all the content. Its fun and addictive, but that's about it. All we really have is glitches bugs exploits and promises.

This may or may not be of interest but I use the Eve client a lot to manage DUST University which gives me options like you cant do in the Dust client.
Such as Employment History and date of Birth of a Merc plus a couple of other things.
The number of fresh new clones joining the Uni within 48hrs, is steadily increasing. I'm seeing a lot of long dormant Mercs returning to the game and joining us.
And following a fairly intensive information blitz via corp mail from the Eve client to all new members over the last three weeks, I'm happy to report that my monthly inactivity cull of players from the corp has returned its lowest percentage of kicked players in nearly a year.
And while I think talk of dominance is slightly premature I've been noticing an upward trend since 1.7.

And we had a large influx of MAG players since MAG is now DEAD....duh!! Sorry but in past three months theres only that single peak of 4500 due to the 3X SP event and other than that its 4000 or below.
Past six months? sorry but still no improvement versus the numbers from six months ago.
Past year same story.
