Fanfest 2014
Fanfest is less than a month away and obviously many of us that were here since closed beta are kinda pissed that we just now are getting the rest of the racial variants suits. Although the new suits.... and the blasted cloaking which has infested this game has made the game fun for awhile it doesn't change how little progress has been made with uprising and the hype around last years fanfest.
But anyways I was wondering, if anyone here is going to fanfest what are you going to be asking CCP? Maybe something like : At fanfest I will say this..
lol maybe but it's probably best not to start raging, but it's best to pretty much explain your anger and tell CCP each one of their mistakes their team in Shanghai did in one whole question when you guys get to ask them.

if you do this while im watching the live stream, i WILL laugh at you.
you may want to refrase it in a manner in wich you will actually get a useful responce.
things like
"how satisfied are you guys with the progress you have made in the development of dust this far"
"what are you guys doing to bring the game closer to the vision presented at the games inception"
ya know things that sound thought out and somewhat intellegent, things that any good marketing team would jump on to answer. |

I'd echo Ghosts Chance's thoughts here and urge you to get your thoughts across in a constructive manner. What I will say is that we do not wish to overextend and overpromise. 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. :)

lol I won't be going to fanfest, but if someone does this I will be laughing and sort of cheering them on. And ya it's probably best to ask questions like the ones you've put.

ya I get it, lol still will be funny to see someone lose cool while trying to ask those questions calmly. But whatever you guys have to show for dust at fanfest might just stop those questions from popping up...... I hope. Cuz after all this time it's really gonna take more than a few suits, and vehicles to restore faith in CCP. And you guys have something more than a few new toys to use right? right?! right?!!!! You see even I'm losing it, but anyways I just hope you guys have something for that MMO side like you guys said in EVE Vegas: more on the MMO less on the FPS.

Just ask them how much of this years fanfest is the same type of empty promises as last years was.

Honestly, I don't understand why they make such sweeping, unkeepable promises at fanfest. We're already playing the game, you don't have to sell it twice. Just give us some realistic projections, maybe a neat little trinket to look at(like you teased with cloaks before the beta ended last year.) and for the most part, we'll be happy.
You don't have to promise crap that you realistically can't get done with your "we need 20 days a month off" schedules because in the end, that hurts you by making us doubt your every move.
If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

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.

How will you improve in these areas:
DEV post: we will consider new ideas on deployable turrets, vehicle av and vehicle balance so please post your ideas.
DEV post: its two days after patch x.00 and we want you to post in this thread what you consider needs a hotfix.
DEV post: we want to improve dropships so post your ideas to improve them.
Sounds good. What about that question that I asked you to identify what CCP Dev did not get the tag they wanted??
Thank you.

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. :) I actually liked things better back in 1.4 when you would post stuff 3 patches ahead so we had some idea of where things were going. Sure things get pushed back and that's annoying, but getting the dialogue going earlier is much better than later. Do you think we'd be stuck with crappy bonuses on Gal/Cal assault suits if we had begun the conversation a week after 1.7 instead of a few weeks before you had to submit 1.8 to Sony for review?
Best PvE idea ever!

I...... agree, first starting off with stations and maybe if CCP gets it figured it out boarding Titans may come along eventually. But in certain situations.

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?

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!

Yes it sounds like the same old rhetoric. :/ And you devs have said before that u b genuine. We're still waiting. on a totally different but relevant note, years ago my friend got excited when his watches, uhh, belt was made from Genuine leather. I want to know what kind of animal is Genuine. I bet it's good grilled.

Real possibilities? As in you want to talk more about what you are planning long term at fanfest?
Seriously, what have you guys been doing the last few months? It better not have been spent working so hard on that cluster of a pooch screwing that was the last patch. If that was hard work, then just cancel the game and retool for 3 years from now.
Given the silence, there needs to be an announcement of something that is finished, or darn near, and ready to go. It needs to be not small, like a single socket, or a new weapon. It needs to be something to move the game forward. And it should be out shortly thereafter.
However, being as this is CCP, I expect some bad screenshots, maybe a teaser video of prerendered trash, and some boring theory talk about where they want Dust to go, with absolutely no discussion about how to get there, or when.
If there isn't a real plan for a transition to PS4 by now, I would have serious questions about the ability of the leadership to handle the title.
Oh well, it is all a big joke anyway right guys? You guys almost got me to spend some cash on some boosters. Thanks for the heads up that the game still isn't going anywhere anytime soon. More to spend on other games that offer a return on investment.

I don't think it's terrible, it's just not possible with the ps3. Maybe small battles to sabatoge the Titan but eventually if this game comes to the ps4, there will be more players and bigger battles and the possibility to take over the Titan.

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 guess it might just be cuz of the new EP, hopefully they don't throw all their money at trailers like last year.

Which sounds good, I'd also like to see some awesome things they have ready for the next build like........ PVE ,or Player Market or lots of new things to do.

It's not easy to ask for patience, I understand that. But I have complete faith in CCP Rouge, the team and our direction - and I truly hope you'll be along for the ride. :)

I hope you are right. I really do. The lower quality of modeling for the latest suits and the big QA fail in 1.8 really destroyed my confidence. Quality seems to be heading in the wrong direction. I'm holding out for FanFest for both EVE and DUST before I leave New Eden for good.

I complain about Dust quite often. And I beat on CCP, both Mothership and Shanghai. Persistently.
This is because I feel that Dust is not a good game anymore. Previously I felt it was a good game with signs of greatness. Now, its mediocre on a good day. A day that I don't lose an expensive forge gun because it didn't fire actually rounds or a tank for much the same reason. And the signs of the future read pay to win. Good luck to New Belles.
I only play Dust to play online with my friends. Some of them are quite funny when they rage, so there is that.
And so it goes.

I was very excited when this gam first came out. I have almost lost all hope. 2 weeks after 1.8 and the bugs havent been fixed. What makes you think that this game will get better anytime soon? 4 months into 2014 and just 1 update full of bugs that mainly introduced suits that should have been included the game came out of "beta" last year. |

I have to agree with the running feeling in here. Having been here for nearly a year now, and having read and watched videos of earlier Dust versions before I arrived, I wonder myself where Dust is heading.
There's two main things keeping me here yet. The first is all of the guys in my corp group, as they make playing matches fun. The second is all of the money I've sunk into this game. I've already put hundreds of dollars into Dust (probably way over 1m AUR by now) and if I don't start to see more active development ideas that don't take 3/4 a year to put out, I'm going to stop buying stuff.
I seriously hope CCP revitalizes Dust, because as far as I'm concerned, 1.7 (and the majority of Uprising) was a huge disaster and just adding a bunch of extra suits isn't going to fix that.

Do not expect to be wowed ,it is better to go in there with real low expectations so that way you wont be disappointed. And this is coming from a guy who defended this game since 2012 but left. I do hope a ps4 version is confirmed i mean if they dont want a crap ass buggy game they have to upgrade. I honestly believe the ps3 is holding this game back i mean look at bf3 vs bf4. bf3 can hold only 16 vs 16 battles while bf4 can hold 32 vs 32 battles. CCP i do hope you understand trying to keep updating a game on piece of crap hardware is only going to cause more problems.

I was so excited when I got the beta key towards the end of summer 2012. I was disappointed because I saw nothing that connected this game to EVE, I barely played but I started playing more around the chromosme build. I even made an EVE account for awhile. Over time that link has gotten better but barely, Uprising has mostly been a very disappointing build, while we were impressed from their preview at fanfest and it was interesting to play it for the first month. And even through all the updates more problems kept popping up, dust 514 has stayed as a lobby shooter for way too long. No one right now should call this an MMO-FPS.

Ya 1.8 has sort made me wonder if they even thought about releasing the rest of the heavies this year. Not sure if they've been occupied with something else that's awesome or their development team is just that slow which wouldn't be a surprise. It's made me worried even more which isn't good since I've been worried about the games future for a very long already. The communication in CCP Shanghai doesn't seem to be very good, and neither does their programming.

I'm only looking for one thing at Fanfest 2014:
Concrete evidence that changes are being made to the development process to establish the groundwork for faster, more logical changes to the game as a whole (rather than the see-saw motion of buffing/nerfing back and forth). Suffice to say, I'll be incredibly disappointed if I see presentations of a bunch of new content that will only exacerbate the problems we're already having with the content we do have by way of adding more work-load to tackle and potentially break.
As I said on Twitter, Fanfest 2014 is going to be a make-or-break for many of us.

It is the same old rhetoric. It's not our problem as to where you're coming from. You have to understand where we're coming from! Don't bite the hand that feeds you! Constructive manner? LOL I laugh at that! It's all perspective! You Devs deserve EVERY criticism that comes at you! Don't care if you were not here last year. Not our problem. You're wearing the colors of CCP, therefore it does matter to YOU! Stop sweeping crap under the carpet and step up and take responsibility and stop passing the bucket!
Also, what you should be saying is that "We do not wish to overextend and overpromise as BEFORE". Dust is not only a game, it's also a business. I wonder if the stakeholders of CCP ever reads the forum. They should. Don't think much of the devs would be working there if they did. Stakeholders don't want hear excuses. They want results!

Same for me, CCP has to show us that the this terrible wait through Uprising was worth it. And that they didn't decide to throw away all their money for that statue they're making for EVE.

past CCP promises resulted in goof up after goof up after goof up
the only question is will CCP deliver at fanfest? and thus we keep dust 514 as a once in a while game?
or CCP fails at fanfest and its Playstation 4 games only?
the question then is if I and others are busy with Destiny, Doom , The Division, Deep Down , Warframe, Planetside 2, Blacklight, Dying Light, Elder Scrolls, The Witcher 3, et all
Then what reason to play dust 514 ????????
Hey CCP get a PS4 client

I have to agree. Fanfest is going to be a big benchmark for me in this game as to where Dust is going. I like the whole idea behind Dust, and I actually like the game format itself, but it needs to be significantly expanded. If we all keep going with this constant back and forth nerf hammer and super buffing crap like with vehicles and certain guns though, this person will eventually leave as well. I was really fully supportive of Dust until the 1.7 disaster.
I don't have a PS4 as I'm waiting for prices to come down, bugs to be worked out, and more content to come out, but I have more than enough games to keep me occupied until then outside of Dust if necessary.
Always the last person to leave. Always the one cleaning up people's messes.

People forgetting stuff like Paintbucket, Player market, Gun Customization, and the Vita app? lol these things CCP made it sound like they're right there and ready to be released.
Again I say Fanfest is just another platform that CCP can sell people pipedreams on about DUST.
Something as mundane in EVERY shooter... gun customization, adding different sights... 2 years DUST has none of that. Just SMH at the shortcomings of this game.
Call me a hater, call me a bitter vet, IDGAF, I played this game for a long time, invested time and money into it, and CCP delivered next to nothing. Took 2 years to get all the heavy suits... like is that a joke? Not a single new heavy weapon, maybe another 2 years huh?
I'll be watching Fanfest, and eagerly await to see of someone has the balls to ask the real questions. I doubt it though, but I can hope.

Took 2 years to get all the heavy suits... like is that a joke? Not a single new heavy weapon, maybe another 2 years huh? I'll be watching Fanfest, and eagerly await to see of someone has the balls to ask the real questions. I doubt it though, but I can hope.
No one forgot about the player market or the gun Customization, things like the paintbucket, gun customization and the Vita app really aren't going to save the game in it's current state. I've played for nearly two years also, while I didn't buy anything for this game I did make an EVE account and had it for several months. That money for the EVE subscription went to CCP and CCP chose where to use that money and it seems like they chose to use the money from EVE,Dust and investors for all those trailers around last fanfest. Like I've said here in this thread already Fanfest is it for me, after that if it's disappointing (most likely) then this game will be remembered as a failed attempt and it never even got to the point where it could be called an MMO-FPS.
But that's if it fails, right now I have no idea what CCP has to show at fanfest. And neither do you (probably, unless you've been paying a dev to tell you what they have, or if you're somehow monitoring CCP's offices in Shanghai). Until Fanfest of 2014 is over we cannot really say if this game is a complete failure.

LOL
Expecting CCP to be clear on something they themselves don't know.
2 Years and no actual "road map". I'm not talking about an IW super duper special "road map", I'm talking about a comprehensive, holistic, road map, that points out what CCP want to achieve in DUST (REALISTICALLY, not more pipedreams like mechs and jets), and the time frame they expect to get it done.
But anyone here on the forums know that CCP can't do that because they honestly come off like they don't know what they're doing. It looks like they write all their ideas on a board and put a blindfold on to pick what they do next. It's the only reason I can think of why heavy suits took this long to reach.
All I can say is keep your expectations low. We've heard all CCPs excuses / reasons, and we've heard all the unrealistic ideas they put out to build "hype". It back fired because they couldn't deliver, and in some regards they took a step backwards (no clan vs clan system in place). One of the best things in DUST (chromosome era) was playing 8v8's without the need to have districts and all that crap. Just make the contract, and boom!

1.8 is a blast, i love what you guys have managed to balance out since 1.7. Wish you guys would work a bit more on processing information to the community though.
The bugs in 1.8 are vast but proportional to the content you guys provided. Im glad that the patch was released in due time before dust was bleeding out. I really enjoy the new approach in 1.8 even though i was dead scared how cloaking mechanism will alter the game play. The cloaking mechanics have made the game much more challenging and once balanced out, a really great addition. You did an amazing thing there with the Commando, i never thought they would actually ever be useful in game. Hope exploits will be dealt a bit quicker in future. Some exploits like lag bombs have been around for far too long.
Cant wait for PCQ 2.0 and more integration to the EVE universe. And i wishPCQ battles will run smoothly again for players all over the world whereever they are located. Hope the EVE part will soon have a greater impact on Dust, start producing suits for the dust mercs and ripe a benefit from PCQ and feel more encouraged to interact with dust players. Cant wait to watch alliance and corp eve ships battling each other in orbit while we are waiting for deployment in the war barge. Hope the ps4 will soon make things happen we barely dreamed of for dust.
Make sure to party hard on fan fest and celebrate what you have accomplished so far. I have to find a way to grap me a ticket to celebrate along with you folks and with the gallente chicks. Been a long way since beta, but i have a feeling we cant fully grasp the great things that still lies ahead.

I had hopes for DUST. It was a chance to explore different aspect of New Eden. I was being patient while CCP found its way but quality is declining and communication is still bad. The concept for DUST has been scaled down to a lobby shooter that still hasn't delivered very much.
I love the New Eden IP but CCP has a history of failing to deliver. The reason EVE hasn't had a failed release lately is that they have scaled back their plans so far that they are polished but boring.
What am I waiting for at FanFest? EVE may be presenting their big stargate building project. I doubt I'll be playing it much though but I'll still watch all the presentations. I'll be surprised if DUST actually presents anything decent and if they do I have low confidence that they can implement it properly. I hope they show PVE and multistage battles. They need long running battles that interact more with EVE but we'll not be seeing that on PS3. Basically, I'm shopping around for a replacement world but Star Citizen is probably 2 years away and nothing else seems interesting.

Don't blame the players over incarna. We wanted walking in stations. Not 70$ monocles and a bunch of microtransactions.
Ccp screwed up incarna and now we don't get ambulation because ccp apparently can't tell the difference between walking in stations and nickel & dime'ing people.

This is what I expect from ccp:
-may13th 2014
DUST 514 Reborn Includes: Player to player trading And a fully functional stock market with massive selling buying and trading.
June-December 2014 Includes : Small core features 1new game mode Allaincd control feature for making and joining alliances for dust mercs 1new map 1-2 pve type game modes not including the first game mode I mentioned.
I'm only asking for 5-6 things in the next year I don't think that's to much to ask and if it is then that's reall disappointing

1.7 was released with two day one OP weapons, combat and rail rifles both dramatically changed the balance of the battlefield in Dust.

AUR and LP allow one to access gear that you have neither the time nor the skills for.
1.8 nerfed them both (and many other items as well) while introducing two day one OP items. The strongest scout suits Dust has ever seen along with the cloak. Guess what it takes to gain early access to them? Hint, see the above paragraph. At least this time the SP was available for some, assuming they gave up on their original suits as they would be rendered useless or at least less effective once the invisi-scout took to the battlefield.
I have a record of ISK paid out from last year. The results are clear to one that has been playing since the very first of closed beta. The ISK rewards are dwindling, steadily, consistently, persistently and have been since ~1.6. It used to be that one could find a fit that let you earn some ISK by grinding with a fit that was cheap enough, let you kill enough (or earn WP your way) while not having you die a dozen or more times per match. You still can, but you had better finish in the top four.
Those combinations are now reduced. The day one OP gear requires a response. The easiest will be AUR. Gaining LP requires spending AUR or ISK to buy gear that will get destroyed seeking LP. Although it does balance the need for AUR by those without cash the reality of losing ISK means it is more expensive in relationship to time. However, many new items are not in the loyalty store.
Each new drop means that those with SP/AUR to burn can use the OP gear on the first day. They will maximize their return. And further CCP/Shanghai's commitment to their path. While Dust seems like F2P, and it was, now the reality of day one OP means that is being left behind. Whether that is on purpose or just a side effect of the standard operating procedures at CCP only time will tell.
@HVH, Sorry for the delay in my response, I had not checked in for a bit. KR
And so it goes.

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.

I was also wondering if getting installations would sort of help with the tank spam, making installations and tanks expensive would help with the spamming of those two also.

Ahem, we're talking Titans here, not Battleships.
That doesn't mean they're just hollow 10mile long football stadiums. They have a doomsday weapon, basically have to be their own jumpgate, all that has to be run through systems. Engines to push the thing along and then it has to have all the modules.
An Erebus only has a 16,000 cubic meter cargo bay which isn't alot. An imicus takes up 21,000 We can only estimate how wide titans are and they're length isn't the entirety of a map. it could easily be down to a map we have now made 2/3 times larger. Only real problem is making an accurate layout and texturing a labrinth of corridors. idk how accurate it is on eve wiki or wear they got the figure from but it says there a Titan crew minimum is 6000-10000 That's around aircraft carrier size. Only were gonna hollow more of it out overhead for tanks if they're allowed and we aren't going to be exploring every inch of the ship room by room.
Realistically it'd be infantry only unless the common areas were large enough for vehicles which would be funny seeing tanks fight in giant mess halls which I don't think would be wise. It's entirely possible though to make happen. 200 vs 200 would be really cluttered for a 2000 meter long narrow map. It'd be more like 64 vs 64 cqc

@ Auris Lionesse Ah yes something the ps4 will only be able to do, maybe a bit more than 64 vs 64 though. Not sure how much more but I think there should still be more than 64 on each team if we're fighting inside a Titan.

If people can jack our HAVs and other vehicles (I.e "personal assets"), then Eve players should be in danger of getting their ships jacked. It would only be fair.
This is why I look forward to potential boarding actions in Dust. I want to be able to board the ships of Eve pilots by means of boarding torpedo and fight my way to the bridge and assasinate the clone in it's pod.

Exactly, when they bring out a ship for battle they risk losing it. Just like when we take out any drop suit for battle, expensive or not it's a risk.

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. :) No more "capture the Titan" thing? 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. So? If people can jack our HAVs and other vehicles (I.e "personal assets"), then Eve players should be in danger of getting their ships jacked. It would only be fair.

Don't forget that some of our dropsuit fittings and vehicles are more expensive than some of the ships used in Eve.
There is no viable argument against us being able to board Eve ships and kill the clone piloting them. It doesn't really matter if a ship is lost to enemy fire or dust mercs boarding it. A ship lost is a ship lost regardless. |

I'm pretty sure that a Velator costs more than our most expensive dropsuits. 500K is absolutely nothing in EVE. That's like 2 blocks of un-refined high sec ice, which can be mined in about 2 minutes.
Now, as for boarding Titan's and killing the capsuleer from the inside I say YES PLEASE!

Sure, but what's to stop ccp from releasing something in Dust that would cost as much as a Velator?
My point here is: anytime you take something out to play, be it a ship in EVE or a dropsuit in DUST you admit the risk of losing it. This is New Eden after all.
I argue this because you can bet that quite a few Eve-pilots would protest loudly against any ideas of boarding their precious ships and assassinating their clones. They suffer from some kind of delusion that they are "better" than Dust mercs and feel that their carebear ways should place them above risk. |

Completely agree, especially on the part where they think they shouldn't be at risk with us dusties around. Just because I'm on a console and this is a fps they think that they are above us.

Nothing stopping them from doing it t all, I just read your statement as a "currently now" kind of thing.
I play(ed) EVE for 7 ish years and I'd be all for Dust mercs being able to board ships and do damage from the inside. I think it would have to be limited to titans and supercaps (at least for a long while). Also, I don't see this happening ANY time soon as we still don't have thing's that would need to be in place to accomplish this feat |

They are above you...... Miles and miles above you. :)
Oh, I would love the tears if someone lost a titan because someone managed to jack the pod from the inside without a shot ever being fired on the outside.
Just imagine:
Black Ops ship jumps into system with Titan and cloaks. Approaches the Titan which just so happens to be outside POS Shields. Black Ops decloaks, launches a single probe and cloaks. Only, that probe isn't what it appears to be on scanner and quickly disappears. It disappeared from scan because it's attached itself to the hull and is currently cutting a hole for Mercs to enter through. The Titan quickly (ha, quickly) tries to get back inside shields but it's too late. 6 merc's have managed to get on board. Nanohives and Droplinks, and a new version of the MCRU all appear and suddenly, there's no longer 6 mercs, but 36 mercs on board.
The titan pilot realises what is happening and calls go out on all comms for help. At this point, the titan's friendly mercs start popping on board (after suiciding from the fight they were involved in, leaving that district open for the taking) and a new fight emerges on board.

Lol not sure about surprises like that with the capsuleer not being able to get dust players to defend the inside of the titan. But if they are near the POS and there is a CRU in the titan then he or she can get dust players to transfer to the bodies in the CRU in the titan.

An internal titan battle would be a multi-staged fight, starting with the entry point. Winning the entrance battle opens two new titan 'districts' for battle. The attacking force then picks one of the new opened districts and attacks, making their way deeper into the vessel.
Losing pushes the attackers further back to their staging point, and winning allows them deeper access to the titan. A titan should have around x districts from entry to victory. While battles are raging inside the titan, the titan remains in space, cannot perform emergency warp. It can warp, unless the warp-drive district has been captured by the attacking mercenaries. The pilot can eject. The pilot can jump, unless the jump-drive district has been captured or is contested by attacking mercenaries. The pilot can activate modules, unless that individual module's district has been captured or is being contested by enemy mercenaries.
A titan should have a district created for each module fitted, a district for its drone bay, a district for each of its hangars. The number of district battles is equal to the number of MCCs attacking the titan.
Our glorious MCC engages a titan, launching its phased cru at the titan. As long as the MCC is cycling its boarding party module, the battle can continue inside the titan. If the mcc is destroyed, the battle ends in a loss.
example: The First MCC engages, activating its boarding parties. Bzzzzooomp, the titan sees that boarding parties are active in his ship, he tells his people to primary the mcc, then, boom, mcc engaged. However, the mcc is telling his friends to give him reps, so he is maintaining his link to the Titan. Ewar engages, breaking the link to the mcc.
The battle still continues inside the titan, however, the invaders inside cannot spawn in after their death. Suddenly, the ewar has been destroyed, and the mcc regains his lock on the titan and reactivates his boarding party module. The invaders can spawn in again, hurrah!
More and more MCCs engage, up to 36, creating 36 battles inside of the titan, moving closer to the core. Suddenly, no longer able to control the ship, his guns have gone offline, his hi-slots, mid slots, and low slots are all offline, his various bays are locked and he can no longer warp or jump, his capacitor is no longer charging, the pilot finds himself having been forcibly ejected from his ship.

What they were showing in 2009 was gameplay on a different engine, it's called the Carbon Engine. And when CCP figured out that the ps3 could hardly run the carbon engine they started over with the Unreal Engine which is what we play on right now. So it's going to take along to for CCP to make as much progress on the Unreal Engine as the amount of progress that was done on the carbon engine .

Got Planetside 2 on the PC not too long ago and it was alright, problem with it is that it's mainly just a shooter. It's not a bad thing though, it's just not a replacement for Dust 514. Games like The Dvivision and Destiny I can consider replacements for Dust 514.

Exactly the problem all through Uprising, what's suppose to be it's biggest strength/ what's suppose to make it stand out (MMO-FPS+Sandbox+its link to EVE online) is its biggest weakness.

Yup I'm not interested that much in the new suits and weapons, it's still ambush, skirmish and domination over and over again with a few new toys. Sort of seems like 1.8 was rushed cuz of some of the texture on the new heavies. At least it seems like they are trying, but it won't matter at all if they don't have anything close to THIS!! before Destinys release and before everyone reaches their limit with Dust 514.

once 1.8 hit I just concentrated on clearing my PS3 backlog of games. May is going to be FFX HD/ Kingdom Hearts and June/ July is probably PS4 Planetside 2, Warframe, Watch Dogs, Infamous so its going to be a case of hardly any time for Dust 514. August its PS4 Diablo 3, probably Dying Light.
Toss in the September Destiny Beta/ full release right after and its looking a bit grim as far as finding time for Dust 514. Real burn out on ambush, domination and skirmish. So burn out on Dust 514 that I am just waiting on Fanfest to sample whatever they have but probably will just sample the build for a few days before no longer playing until it maybe? jumps to PS4?
Problem then if its April 2015 and its play Dust 514 or play The Witcher 3, The Division, Destiny and other PS4 games. Probably going to say sorry CCP?? no time for an underdeveloped game any more.
Hey CCP get a PS4 client

Too much nerfing and buffing for a whole year, while there will always need to be some adjusting to new weapons,suits, and vehicles it really shouldn't take this long to do such things. But how many programmers and how long does it take to change the stats on one weapon, dropsuit or vehicle? I don't know how big their dev team for Dust is but cmon are their programmers really that bad? I've been told or heard plenty of times in squads I've been in that CCP's programmers are so ******* terrible.

Ya right now I like the way the gameplay is right now , with fanfest close I'd like to get some new things to do other than amb,skirm, and domination over and over again.

LEHON Xeon wrote:I have to agree with the running feeling in here. Having been here for nearly a year now, and having read and watched videos of earlier Dust versions before I arrived, I wonder myself where Dust is heading.
There's two main things keeping me here yet. The first is all of the guys in my corp group, as they make playing matches fun. The second is all of the money I've sunk into this game. I've already put hundreds of dollars into Dust (probably way over 1m AUR by now) and if I don't start to see more active development ideas that don't take 3/4 a year to put out, I'm going to stop buying stuff.
I seriously hope CCP revitalizes Dust, because as far as I'm concerned, 1.7 (and the majority of Uprising) was a huge disaster and just adding a bunch of extra suits isn't going to fix that. We need more interfacing with EVE to make us actually relevant to the EVE universe. There should be an implementation of where our fights on the ground actually change things EVE-side. I've always been for something like from Star Wars Battlefront 2 where you could fight in space in ships or installations on foot, and also on the ground on planets. Something like that combined with the player market could be a huge boost for Dust.
+1 completely agree, while Uprising was impressive at last fanfest and for the first few days of having it.....there's been nothing to do but play the same modes we've been stuck with for too damn long. There is no " This is New Eden " feeling, there is MMO or Sandbox part in this FPS. CCP needs something like the Dust Keynote in 2009, where they first showed Dust players requesting an orbital strike and the EVE ship firing down onto the planets surface. It was sort of "evolutionary ", it's really gonna have to be that great at this point.

And to continue on that last comment + explaining what I meant towards the end of that comment. More on that link between EVE and Dust needs to be seen in between both games. A simple example: contracts that EVE players can offer us and contracts that Dust players can offer to EVE players. Other ideas have already been discussed and/or could be thought of easily. I've got enough Dropsuits and everyone knows that new vehicles shouldn't be primary on CCP Shanghais list of "things long overdue for Dust 514"

Although a ps4 version sounds great CCP has yet to get the ps3 version right. I think it's gonna be at least two years till CCP has a playable ps4 version.

I'd imagine Titan battles would be sequential events, first the boarding aspect, and if the attackers win, it would continue onto the next area, maybe the engine room or the bridge depending on the tactics of the attackers. Just because a Titan is huge doesn't mean that the battle has to encompass the entire ship for the entire fight.

Setting up in Shanghai kind of makes me ask a few questions, why set up in Shanghai for Dust 514? Is it cheaper to get office space in Shanghai than it is in Iceland? Are you able to pay some people you hire from Shanghai or any other economic free zone in China so much less than you can pay people from any where else in the world? Not saying that you don't have people that aren't from China though( I don't know though so I can't be sure at all ) How much attention does CCP give the development of Dust 514? I ask that last question because Shanghai is really damn far away from Reykjavik. Kind of looks like they put that development team in the corner of the world lolz.

Right now, it's just not worth the frustration. It feels completely divorced from EVE an entirely devoid of direction, and until I feel like CCP is taking the game seriously, I will not waste any more time and energy on it.
The ball is in CCP's court, now we can only wait.

Ah so that's why I haven't seen you upload any new vids for Dust, right now talking about the possibilities is the only thing that keep some people interested. But that's a problem, there are better things to say about its possible future than its current state.

Completely correct, the game hasn't evolved and has remained a lobby shooter with a very poor link to EVE online.

After reading the rest of this thread I see why CCP keeps this farce going.
How is it that people who have been here for more than a year are STILL giving CCP money? Do you people not understand that rewarding them for bad behaviour does not motivate them to good results?
I pretty much shut my wallet to SHanghai after Uprising dropped. It was just too much BS for all the hype they built up.
I just reactivated some of my Eve accounts, and I very quickly realized that playing Dust as it is now is just a huge pain in my ass.
I log on for PCs, and I AFK my fatty alt until they fix the skill bug.
More than likely I will biomass my toons after fanfest if the announcement is bad. Which I fully expect.
I might jump the gun though if the alleged hotfix to the skills bug doesn't show up.

Same for me but don't waste your time waiting nine hours to bio-mass your character lol just delete dust from your ps3 and trade it in to cover some of the cost of the ps4. I'm hoping for something great at fanfest, not vehicles or new guns but new things to do, more of that game evolving/ better link to EVE/ creating items, Player Market, PVE.

Im glad that the patch was released in due time before dust was bleeding out. I really enjoy the new approach in 1.8 even though i was dead scared how cloaking mechanism will alter the game play. The cloaking mechanics have made the game much more challenging and once balanced out, a really great addition. You did an amazing thing there with the Commando, i never thought they would actually ever be useful in game. Hope exploits will be dealt a bit quicker in future. Some exploits like lag bombs have been around for far too long. Cant wait for PCQ 2.0 and more integration to the EVE universe. And i wishPCQ battles will run smoothly again for players all over the world whereever they are located. Hope the EVE part will soon have a greater impact on Dust, start producing suits for the dust mercs and ripe a benefit from PCQ and feel more encouraged to interact with dust players. Cant wait to watch alliance and corp eve ships battling each other in orbit while we are waiting for deployment in the war barge. Hope the ps4 will soon make things happen we barely dreamed of for dust. Make sure to party hard on fan fest and celebrate what you have accomplished so far. I have to find a way to grap me a ticket to celebrate along with you folks and with the gallente chicks. Been a long way since beta, but i have a feeling we cant fully grasp the great things that still lies ahead.
I take it all back! Thank you for spitting into our face.

Words cant express how deeply ashamed i feel to have supported CCP, the plans that our alliance made to put more effort into dust, into making the experience of everyone enjoyable, to tackle foes, plan for the future, all done and said for absulutely nothing!

If the actual meat and potatoes of the Fanfest build doesn't blow me away, I will likely lose what little faith I have left in this project, which makes me really sad to say. couldnt agree more, your not alone. im sticking around the forums till fanfest and when im inevitably dissapointed im done for good. at least for a decade until the game is remotely playable lol a decade?

Just give us some realistic projections, maybe a neat little trinket to look at(like you teased with cloaks before the beta ended last year.) and for the most part, we'll be happy.
You don't have to promise crap that you realistically can't get done with your "we need 20 days a month off" schedules because in the end, that hurts you by making us doubt your every move. because its pretty depressing what they can realistically get done if they dont try and add the hype lol But hey, at least the gun fires.

Maybe not, if our characters stats are gonna be transferred and maybe the isk you've got right now. It's Dust 514 still but better and seems like it'll develop so much faster. I think they said they've only been working on Legion for a few months, if that's true we might just get a beta sometime this year.
Rage at Fanfest??

I was just reading through this thread and the answers were there for us. No special items for ordering the stream, no chest thumping from Dev's like last year beforehand. It was ALL written for us but we couldn't see it LOL
While you're at it CCP, suck the middle of my dick!

I dont care how much faster its developed, if they had used their resources for dust rather than for another project they could have made dust even better, and with the development on the console generations even greater.
The pc is an entirely different target group of players. My Corp and my alliance are made of mostly Console players. I kissed my PC good bye just because of the privacy invasion, hacking, exploitation, cheats, driver problems/ceasing support. I was glad that dust was released on a console. Now all this will come back to Legion. People who can cope and afford time and money into PC gaming might enjoy the transition of dust. But then there are much more entertaining alternatives on the PC FPS and MMO market. I would even consider spekking into a new PC hardware, if i wasnt directing a corp and alliance of players being part of a community that have been shitted upon ruthlessly.

Nope, even though we were among the first entering PCQ and capturing the first districts, being given a dev blog on the dust side, CCP never tryed to convey any information to representatives of the larger alliances. Even by now we dont know who was "representing" the "dust community" and managed to screw up this game and its future perspective so bad that it came this far.
Everyone is in shock.

That really sucks, I suppose those mainly in Dust that are able and willing to get a PC for Legion are gonna leave that alliance. But really CCP should've started off with a PC Version anyways, not sure if a PS4 version of Legion is gonna be an option for CCP.

I know, it was a poor troll. Your corp is Rise of Legion, games name is Legion. Trying to make light of a serious situation. It doesn't come off well in print.

AHH I GOT - NEW DIRECTION! There has been a management shift. Canceled itdeas and a new direction. But who ever this is has not carried the players with him. We are not employees = you should not be clearing house! WE are your player base. You should be wining us over ASAP.
This new direction was already poorly implemented. |
