This is not a doom and gloom post though some people might just call it that anyways. The Idea of Dust 514 with it's link to EVE online is a great idea and it's great that CCP decided to go through with this project.
Towards the end days of chromosome, I remembered everyone talking about how the next expansion was going to be great. Especially after we saw some of Uprising at Fanfest, it looked like a completely different game to us at first. And it looked like CCP was going to take the next step, when I say the next step I mean turning this from another lobby shooter into an MMOFPS. After my first PC battle I was disappointed to learn that it was just a very expensive laggy skirmish mode.
But with so many problems this year and the amount of time it takes for CCP to react to the issue, a dedicated community that is certainly running out of patients, incoming MMOs on consoles such as Destiny and the Division, the slow migration for ps3 owners from the ps3 to the ps4 the future seems very uncertain to me right now. Only once fanfest is over will I be able to decide that for myself.
I may not have been here for all the issues but here's how it looked like to me between last fanfest and now.
- Laggy expensive skirmish we call PC
- Heavies were ineffective for awhile
- Caldari Logi became flavor of the month
- Many other flavors of the month
- Forums got filled up with so much hate towards the game and CCP
- Flaylock OP
- Contact nade spam
- CCP needed a new executive producer for Dust
- PC was too laggy for plenty of people
- Constant nerf demands on the forums
- No proper tutorials or test range for new players if there are any
and Grinding that's all there is to do right now is grind your sp till you go f***** crazy
This game is running out of time but with this new executive producer (which pyrex was so happy about) and dedicated players remaining for now, the future of this game is uncertain. Which is why I have never spent money on this game, until I can be sure that this game will succeed I won't throw my money on a ship with a big possibility to sink.
Don't make it easy for them, take a few down with you.
