DUST Search - What do you really want from dust

I think for me what I want is a fun game where I have a chance at killing people.

Hate to say this but for the NPE CCP should probably take away our passive HP and DPS boosts and bring the HP values of suits closer together. The alternative would be to bring in extremely powerful weapons that can kill anything in 2 shots.

Yes this would make Dust more like BF4 and other similar games and there are many players who are very much against this but if people do not have a real chance of killing people in an FPS game then it will die.

I think that is why there is so much hate for the cloaked scout shotgunner as they hate the fact the someone in a STD suit with a STD shotgun now has a genuine chance at killing a Protosuit.

The fact is I like having the extra HP and DPS that being a vet affords but it is not helping the game grow. It is probably one of the few things I like about other FPS games such as BF4 etc is that even new players have a real chance of taking anyone out given luck, positioning and optimum ranges because in terms of HP everyone is equal.

Yet, they always come out of nowhere with some ridiculously off-target patches that just make things worse. We plea for a moment of sensibility and clarity in hopes that someday they'll listen to the quality members and ideas of the community and learn to rely on our decades of experience in a genre they've only begun experimentation with.

Hansei Kaizen The Jackson Five 153	Posted - 2014.04.18 15:39:00 - [9] - Quote Nice thread. I think different people want very different things from dust, and I think it would pay off to clarify what the different motivations are. 20mio SP one year player here: I primary want more players in dust, so CCP can make more coin out of it and has the opportunity to deliver more and more content for years to come. Love the designs, lore and generally new stuff. I love balanced matches. Its fun to have a challenge and still have a chance. I want to have the opportunity to jump in and out of dust at any given time, play a bit and not need to hardcore around to take part. Finally, I want to play with my friends. But I cant get them into the game, because its too punishing / no fun at low levels. The answer to your complaint is PvE. Always. NPE status: (Gò»°Gûí°n+ëGò»n+¦ Gö+GöüGö+ Casual solo

If CCP Shangai is crying over this forum's criticisms now, wait until they're cashing those severance checks and moving boxes out the door. WoD 514 indeed. Lol, World of Darkness. How prophetic. Lol, the ban hammer got me!

They told us we had no chance, that we were fools to even try( " You're crazy!!! they have the Imperfects protecting that planet and you're an idiot for even thinking about trying to take that planet from them "). But I'm a Mercenary I don't judge your ambitions, I only judge what you can afford. Pay my price and I'll strike down the heavens, I fought your wars a thousand times and I won them all and I know this is the moment that will change everything. On this day the blood I spill will bring down an empire and the world will burn before your very eyes. They will remember us and they'll remember what happened here, on this battlefield one shot will change the course of history and your going to be the one who takes it. Rage at Fanfest??

BFT CDWIII Ultramarine Corp 0	Posted - 2014.04.18 21:06:00 - [16] - Quote PVE it will allow dust to grow a powerbase so we are not stuck fighting the same people every other match. PVE will get the new player experience from what it is right now to something somewhat playable. This game is completly about your total lifetime SP and where you put it if you put your sp in the right skills you can be viable at 5 million. But you will not be competitive till you have at least 15 million. To be competitive against the 40-60 million sp bitter vets you need at least 25-30 million sp depending on what you are going to use. The new player with 500 thousand sp dose not stand a chance after academy. Mlita gear for the win Cheaper gear for the win Fitting/Skill advisor any questions please ask

Or they could just make the academy much much longer, put a decent tutorial in the game and make a mode where people can play practice matches against enemy drones and mortal or immortal troops controlled by an AI. And keep proto weapons + suits out of pub matches for now. Rage at Fanfest??
