We look forward to discussing things that are real possibilities for DUST, and I feel incredibly optimistic with the new direction and guidance the development team has been working under.
It may seem like the same old rhetoric, but I am being genuine and I really hope in time you'll understand where I'm coming from. :) Is this a new, thoughtful, more grounded CCP Shanghai/Dust 514 team? If this is what you guys are planning at Fanfest--discussing real, upcoming and executable changes for Dust--then you can count me in, and I'm sure the rest of us in as well!

I was pretty hyped last year :( that was a terrible idea tbh capture the station i can get behind but capture the titan. well the eve player in me is frightened by it. a titan is a personal asset, a station is a corp/alliance asset. I agree the titan idea is terrible. I really don't think people have any clue just how ridiculously massive they are. It would take a team the size of CCP Shanghai decades to model the interior of just one titan, and there are 4 of them. It would take up terrabytes of disk space for the maps. You could have a 200 player battle and not find an enemy for days. The only realistic way to do this would be to make the map 0.01% of the size of the ship, and really, if you're going to do that, what the hell is the point? See my sig for a much better solution for fighting in space with EVE players. titans are only a kilometer long you'd want a lav too cross one... or a functional tram system. but it wouldn't be too massive. Titans are much longer than a kilometer. A Ragnarok is around 18 km, tied for the longest with the Leviathan. An Erebus is 14.7 km, and an Avatar is the shortest at 13.7 km.

but two years later the installations reminder is still there after preesing right on the d pad.......meh!
Back in the day we had small blaster turrets, which were pretty fun, then Skirmis 2.0 came and took it all away - that's why I fear everything with 2.0 in it now... Why were they taken out? Too much spam? I don't get why CCP doesn't just realize the "sandboxy" idea behind the game and allow for some spam--just make it COST. I mean, they had to go with an artificial limit of 2 tanks on spambush because of tank spam, yet that could easily have been solvable by dramatically increasing the price for tanks.
And consider that if we did have installations we could call in (and pay for). Maybe the answer to a tank wouldn't just be another tank. Maybe it'd be a rail installation or even a small rail turret. There's options there for installations. If everyone remembers the promo trailer CCP played for Dust, everything had a cost. "Ambush OMS?" Nope. Just "Ambus" and we provide the OMS with our wallets. Maybe the connection with our wallet is what's truly missing.
