Pyrex video about nerk/buff culture

I've been away from this game save a week here and there, and I have to agree with Pyrex. In the time I have been gone very little has been accomplished. Watch this video and consider what he says.

What we need is new content, enough with the "Nerf this/Buff that" whining. I want more vehicles, more weapons, more suits, more maps, more game modes (For the sake of all that is ISK get rid of the neutral maps). I want to raid regions of null sec PI for my EVE side alliance, I want an orbital cannon to shoot Capital Ships, I want to be part of SOV. I want new things, not buffing this and nerfing that.

HTFU guys, unlock the devs from having to spend time catering to whatever you're whining about. In a few weeks I will be making a return to this game, and I wanna see more out of it.

I stopped taking Pyrex seriously when he suggesting buffing the flaylock during its prime.

Also, if you were okay with TAR Callogis, I'm not quite sure what to say.

Pyrex is so full of sh-t and himself.

He has been serious about buffing flaylocks for forever, but now that it doesn't fit in with what he is saying, it was all a troll... yeah right. He is one of those internet dummies who instead of owning up to a wrong/bad opinion, claims troll.

Also, only now is he ok with balance, now that ADSes are damn near invincible in the skies, tanks are still broken, and scouts >>> all. The only reason he is ok with it is because those are his playstyles.

Just stop listening to that madman.

Fair point, I grant you that. But i've been gone since August... what more do we really have since then? Yeah some new maps, which are nice. Yeah, new guns, which are nice. Yeah, new suits, which are nice. But what about the EVE link? What about being a mercenary for the Capsuleers? What about affecting SOV, Planetary Interaction, Player Owned Stations, heck even Titans? What about that stuff, the stuff they promised? What about fighters? The Enforcers and Surya/Sagaris? Gunships? Infantry Fighting Vehicles? Hover bikes? Orbital Cannons (The ones that shot at the Moros in "A Future Vision" and the one that punched a hole through a Nyx in "Origins")? When can I say "Ok Fleet Commander, the ground station is taken, call a target", which at that point I am given a target in EVE, say a Revelation, to shoot at from the orbital cannon on the ground, and the thing is one shotted out of the sky? What about that stuff, the real depth that is missing? I want that stuff. I wanna burn a region's planets in EVE to the ground. The promise is there, but my point is, wasting Dev time on nerfs and buffs is taking a lot from what this game could be. Broken things should be fixed yes, but honestly, if it isn't really broken, why complain about it?

I just wanna effect EVE, I just wanna be a mercenary

Considering that's still a pipe dream, we're asking for a working version of what seems to be the product offered.

I'd rather have half a dozen new maps honestly, or attacking Planetary Interaction colonies in EVE. Doesn't that sound fun?

I'd rather have a balanced and major bug free game. New stuff brings back old players for a short while after a patch until they get too annoyed by how unbalanced and buggy the game is but a balanced and major bug free game will keep them playing in between patches. Though with that said we need all the racial suits (commander and pilot suits), vehicles (Amarr and Minmatar DS's, Lav's & tanks, Mavs, L & H Aircraft, and weapons (AV, Heavy weapons, and turrets) to achieve that. Basically we need the base game and it needs to be balanced and major bug free before we worry about new stuff.

If you want to have some effect in Eve then go play Eve.

I do

Then again, what use is "THIS IS OP, NERF IT" to the same thing a month later "THIS THING IS BAD, BUFF IT", over and over again. The pieces are falling into place, but if ALL the Devs are doing is this nerfing and buffing, what real progress are we making? I'd rather have an OP Gun and the ability to be a massive pain in the butt to capsuleers than the same gun instead being nerfed, then buffed.

Then go play Eve instead of playing Dust because it will be a long time before Dust makes any kind of impact in Eve, if ever!

Hi, Im CEO Pyrex and I am loving this thread

Yes the flaylock buff has always been a troll, sorry for those who are new to 'eve culture' that didn't get it.

Love me or hate me, it doesnt matter, we all want this game to succeed and i fear the endless nerf buff culture is stalling new content and fun things / new player catching modes, items, game modes and concepts.

Frankly (and i do expect to be trolled for this) the future of Dust 514 is not about you, me or us, its got to be about the new players and how the game grows and expands.

Much love

*EDIT* Yes I know Pyrex is normally full of... never-mind. But I believe he has a point. I want to be effect EVE, burn colonies, shoot dreadnaughts on Infrastructure Hubs in Null Sec from an orbital cannon. That is the content we are missing.

Also Pyrex is my only real way to keep up with Dust at the moment...
