It's really hard for me to explain things. I never heard of CCP until I became involved in DUST 514. A free FPS that looked like a solid game. I really enjoyed being able to be a part of this from the ground up as a beta player and all. Sure the game had its faults, but they were being fixed and with the players help, my help, we shaped it into something solid. I felt like I was part of a strange family, sure a digital one, but family.

Then I hear about this Fanfest and CCP really pushing DUST players to come up to Iceland and enjoy the party on top of the world. A party with the rest of the family and to meet EVE players as well as other DUST players. I am a family man and really wanted my family to experience the CCP and EVE family. We flew up here to join in on the Fanfest activities. My wife and little boy. Hopefully will try to get him another sibling to pick on later this year! (still trying)

At first things were great. It was interesting to walk around and introduce yourself as a DUST only player and everyone was so friendly. I meet a ton of people. Things were great. Finally, after all the other stuff we get to the DUST presentation. For a moment I felt special. This was a presentation about me and the rest of my friends who play DUST. A presentation for us and to become closer to the rest of this family here at CCP and with EVE. Everyone around me knew I was a DUST only player it seemed.

Never in all my life have I been this utterly embarrassed to be somewhere. To really feel executed on the spot and all eyes on you. I felt like the biggest fool in the universe. My wife just covered her mouth and looked at me with pity. It felt as if everyone was looking at me for a reaction.

Every single moment after that it seemed like my family and I had leprosy. People steered clear and ended conversations as fast as possible and vanished. I just don't know how else to explain it. I have never in all my life felt this betrayed and publicly humiliated.

I wish I never came up here.

Skihids Bullet Cluster Lokun Listamenn 3418	Posted - 2014.05.02 23:10:00 - [61] - Quote What CCP did was unconscionable. Luring players up there for an expensive vacation only to crap on them like that. The DUST keynote was 15 minutes of pain. It was taking your girlfriend on an expensive vacation only to have her break up with you on the second day, leaving you to hang around for two more days wondering what to do and wishing to be anywhere else. How could they not know this beforehand? How could they do it anyway? It boggles the mind.

Shutter Fly Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 361	Posted - 2014.05.02 23:13:00 - [65] - Quote Damn... Forget the time and money I put into this game, I think this is the one aspect of this mess that really makes me legitimately angry, I've got nothing to complain about in comparison. CCP has no right to go humiliating anyone like this, much less some of their most loyal customers.

NewOldMan KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 81	Posted - 2014.05.02 23:14:00 - [67] - Quote Dude, Like some other post said. Turn it into an actual vacation. Screw fanfest. There are other places to visit in Iceland. I feel betrayed as well, but no where near where you are at. If I traveled to fanfest for DUST, and this happened. I'd feel the same. But get drunk, and get back to giving your son that other sibling.
Soraya Xel Abandoned Privilege Top Men. 2362	Posted - 2014.05.02 23:15:00 - [68] - Quote Sorry you had to go through that in person. The whole ordeal has been soul-crushing, but at least i'm only out the cost of a PS3 and a massive pile of AUR. That pales in comparison to flying out to Iceland. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate
