DUST Search - General Concerns and Issues with DUST/CCP/COMMUNITY

I just want to say that I don't want to see dev responses in General Discussion, but in Feedback and Requests (now Features and Ideas). For example why aren't the devs creating and/or participating in the relevant threads about respecs, vehicle balance and medium suit stats just to name a few examples?

When I say devs I also don't mean the community managers, as it should be the actual devs in charge of the specific stuff that comes in and, for example in the case of medium suit stats, explains what they plan to do with it. They're still being worked on, so they can't give final numbers, but they can tell us what they plan to do. Then we have a place to discuss these ideas with the devs because they should certainly stay in the discussion and reply.

When I look at the forum section now I have to search for a good while to find any dev responses at all, even in the stickied threads there are practically none. That's simply disappointing.

And yeah, Saberwing's response is just the same old stuff we heard 2 years ago.

A Laggy, Glitchy, Crashing, 10 FPS, Unbalanced Lobby shooter on the PS3.n++ but... this has ALWAYS been DUST... this isn't a "at the moment" thing. I've been here since closed beta, and while the game has come a long way, it's still sub par. After all the pipe dreams and big talk nothing much has changed. Frames are still a mess, balance in the game is STILL poor since beta, the game is STILL a lobby shooter, and content is STILL leaking through the cracks slower than people realize. The more things change, the more they stay the same. ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

I made the choice to not spec into dropsuits. 35m SP here.. only 1.6m in DS command. If there is a respec there is going to be hell to pay about Contacts and AUR reimbursement. you obviously didn't see the point. There was only one (1) heavy race for 2 years. If you wanted to play as a heavy, for 2 years you had no choice but to invest in the Amarr heavy suit. So no, there was no choice given to people who wanted to play the heavy. i have no idea how DS command ended up in this or AUR... or even "Contacts" ( ._.) <('.'<) "There there Mr. Heavy, it's not your fault CCP doesn't care about you"

And yeah, Saberwing's response is just the same old stuff we heard 2 years ago. You see where he replied? In a thread basically calling them out. It's a joke, and CCP continues to not care what people have to say... oh, maybe after someone calls them out on it. Countless re spec / sp refund threads, NOT A SINGLE REPLY... but when this OP say a couple things that might hurt some feelings, instant blue tag and a half baked answer at that. Devs don't care what people have to "suggest" about their game. Do people not realize DUST has been CCPs way or no way??? Only thing the community has any say on is nerfs and buffs, and even then it's usually because CCP messed up on a number. DUST has been in a steady state of mess since Uprising, when they decided that feedback wasn't their concern. I hope I get a dev reply to me, because I'm calling them out. In Chromosome they listened... since Uprising they don't care. I don't care what a dev comes and tells me, this is how it looks, and is the reason so many players left DUST, because the game failed, and the devs failed to listen.

The reason people are here is because they are / were passionate about the game, and people that are passionate tend to get angry / disappointed / frustrated when things fail to meet expectations. To be honest, most expectations here aren't even that high. Oh wow we're getting new heavy suits... after 2 years of playing the game they NOW bringing them. Yea congrats CCP, new content. Forgive people for not praising and bowing down to CCP for giving them something they've wanted for a long time. "Satisfaction is the death of desire" When people are satisfied with this game, they'll get bored and move on. In other cases, the lack of content, and the lack of a game that isn't a sub par lobby shooter will chase or already chase the majority of its fans away. So you feel free to give CCP a pat on the back, and a "good job" speech. I don't even play this game anymore, but i want this game to be good when it reaches PS4 2023 (when the PS5 coming out), so I'll continue my cynical tirades.
