DUST Search - Thanks for saving me money CCP

First I'd like to genuinely say thank you for what is actually pretty decent for a F2P.

But since I started playing a year ago I've spent $140 on various in game items. We all understand that it's players like myself and lots of others spending our hard earned cash voluntarily that keeps this game F2P. I've been hearing a lot more people lately saying they're done spending a dime on DUST, and finally, I must say the same.

When you willingly leave in broken mechanics to be exploited, and weapons and tactics that are obviously OP, you say very clearly that anyone who doesn't use them is not worth the effort to retain as a player. I understand you have finite resources and time with which to make the changes you intend to. But this does not excuse the haphazard way in which you have "balanced" this game. You seem to be behaving like backyard hobbyists, tinkering and experimenting instead of thoroughly planning and designing. If this is all that has been allowed by CCP management, shame on them for stifling the potential of this game. If this is poor conception and execution on the part of the Devs, shame on them for wasting that same potential.

Bottom line is, I no longer enjoy this game enough to invest in it, and for that, I am truly dissapointed in you. I will no longer purchase boosters, Aurum or vehicle packs. I do not suggest others cease their support, I just cannot continue to give you that tacit approval.

Let the rounds of "GTFO" commence.

Stop asking for tiercide , your killing variety and the fun of this game at the same dam time .

Ripley Riley Incorruptibles 1850	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:18:00 - [12] - Quote I have only been purchasing boosters since CCP retired BPO's... and even then I'm not purchasing many of them these days. Without a hint of PvE in sight and PC a massive broken mess I can't in good faith help fund Dust 514. ... that being said, when I see PvE is on the horizon and PC has been fixed I will happily buy AUR. He imposes order on the chaos of organic evolution...

Orin the Freak The Solecism of Limitation 808	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:21:00 - [14] - Quote All are legitimate arguments. I feel the DUST514 team is just too small. CCP should find some way to hire more people on, if for nothing other than to hammer out hotfixes DAYS (not WEEKS) after bugs are discovered. Why not charge us $100,000 AUR for a one-time only respec? (as in, you can only ever get one) that would rake in plenty of cash. Also, I would pay a decent fee (say maybe at most $5) for the ability to paint my dropsuits/vehicles. Other microtransactions. But the ONLY way I would condone these expenditures is if I saw a near-instant increase to development time. This game could/should be great, but in it's current state, it is dreary, stagnant, and next to a chore. You guys/gals at CCP have done so much to bring us what we currently have, but it just seems you're understaffed. I personally would be refreshed to see more scenic maps. that would probably turn the game around for me. seeing trees, lush alien forests, actual snowy maps, fighting amidst a large city, or inside a huge warehouse-like facility, maybe even underground? all these things would be amazing! but at the rate we've been getting significant updates, these things all seem several years off, if ever, and that is depressing.
Obodiah Garro Tech guard RISE of LEGION 963	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:22:00 - [15] - Quote Ive spanked as much into Dust as another man might put into a semi respectable games collection, am also at the point where the aurum store can kiss my ass. The turnout of new content is beyond painful, problems last forever, no game modes, a 'high end' PC that is basically first come first served everybody else can watch us farm isk, lackluster CCP representation on the forums, a CPM that is both unneeded and useless (they should get a psn trophy for that feat), and many other reasons. Not gonna give away isk and certainly not giving up anymore cash. Nemo me impune lacessit

Seeth Mensch Capital Acquisitions LLC Dirt Nap Squad. 218	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:31:00 - [17] - Quote I've spent around $200 bucks as well...but all I got were BPOs and boosters. I get that BPOs are a thing that they are trying to lose, but.... Why spend money? I like this game a lot, but I find myself suffering from Dust Fatigue. Too much, too long, too tired. I bought my first new game since, I dunno, october, last night, and was excited at the idea of playing something new. I want Dust to work...but CCP needs to look closely at what is working for other successful games. Replicate them here. Game modes that offer variety is important to keep people playing. NPE that gets people hooked is important. Choices in the store for items that make people feel special (Quafe Heavy Suit! :) are important for the day-to-day cash influx. GIVE people availability, and and your players will make it (CCP's monetary needs) happen. /fades away

Onesimus Tarsus 703rd Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 1928	Posted - 2014.04.22 20:41:00 - [19] - Quote I bought a merc pack and about $15 worth of AUR back in Feb/March of '13. I quickly saw where that was going and haven't spent one red cent since. I bought Battlefield 1943 back in 2009 for $15 (US). As a FPS, it still to this day vastly outshines DUST 514 in every way except in the limited and mostly imagined customizations that DUST 514 offers. If you want paper dolls and weapons with weird names, by all means, play DUST 514. If you want great online FPS action on the cheap, well... 1.9 forum warrior. SMG wielder. Mama's boy. I'm right, you're wrong. Adjust.

I myself have made the same statement but the AUR keeps rolling. Me too, but I'm done for real this time. I've got enough SP to have 3 suits proto, several weapons the same, and my cores just about maxed. I don't need more boosters, nothing else its worth buying, and CCP is not delivering on what they advertised Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
