DUST Search - Lobby Shooter

Like how pretty much any fps game , MOBAS , and some other games is operated . You load up the game then in a menu you queue for a playlist/gamemode and usually( not always) a matchmaking system decides the best optimal match for you and you fight in that match.

The matches are closed environments with equal number of players on both sides to provide a decent experience. After the battle you go back either to your menu or another lobby of any kind.

I really hope they fix that. I want more then a lobby shooter for Dust514.

Going from a strictly lobby based game to an game experience like in Eve would technically be near impossible , and would require a lot resources from CCP or pretty much any company . It would most likely take a few years of dedicated work to fully achieve if not more I think . The most realistic way is to have a big map that is generated and instanced filled with stuff like AI and what not, but that can take a long time to do as well I think.

I have been seeing the term being used to describe DUST514 more and more. From what I understood, DUST514 was NOT supposed to be another Lobby Shooter. It was supposed to be an additional extension in the thinking of "emersion' of Dust and EVE. The 2 games to be merged as it were. To Fill out one another. To Turn New Eden into a Place, (game), no one has ever experienced before. I really do not understand what people are meaning by a "Lobby Shooter".

Dust is not supposed to be one, there should be no limits on how many players are on a team and you should be able to go into a match at any time but dust is broken atm.

They already have the full-sized maps, they just need the AI. AI takes longer than anything else in a game. (I know, I studied video game design.) I don't need luck, I have ammo.

CommanderBolt ACME SPECIAL FORCES Legacy Rising 586	Posted - 2014.02.10 18:35:00 - [9] - Quote I guess every FPS game (At least that I have ever played) is a 'lobby shooter'. The only way I could see it not being a lobby shooter is if we all roamed a free world, kinda like you do in EVE or in say a game like Skyrim. Could you imagine running around a planet randomly wandering into battles and stuff. That could be cool. I doubt it is possible on the PS3 though.
