I bet I'm over-reacting but I figure, better cut my losses while I can and join another gaming community:
So Dust 514 was my first fps I really enjoyed. I never got into Halo (except for reach for a little bit because of character customization) or COD or BF or any other games. Dust however was amazing. I can't tell you how much I loved this game, and how, in the last month I was able to convince two of my other friends to start playing with me (one even bought a ps3 just for dust). We were going to start a corporation and try to free the Minmatar from Amarr rule...
but I'm not so sure anymore. While I have no doubt that Dust will continue for another couple of years, it won't grow; not in any meaningful way anyways. So while I do plan on playing Dust here and there for fun, I'm looking for another game that can fill it's niche role.
I'm looking for a first person shooter that allows me full customization (gender, color schemes, clothes, guns) etc, with a large online community. I was thinking of Defiance, but I don't know much about it. Has anyone here played it yet? is there a ps4 version of defiance?
Anyways, thank you for the awesome memories and the funny threads. You guys were my first.

Haven't played Defiance but I do know it is going free to play in June, so may as well just wait for that. However, Defiance has received fairly poor reviews and is only for previous gen systems.
Destiny has the level of customization you seek but its combat is supposed to be very reminiscent of Halo (it is developed by Bungie). If you preorder it at certain retailers (Amazon, gamestop, etc.) you'll receive a beta code that will let you try out the game in june or july ahead of the September release. If you don't like it, just cancel your preorder.
I don't know of any other FPS that have that much customization though (normally FPS players are only concerned with how tricked out their gun is).

that's what they said on Kotaku. It's happening in June, and I would definitely love to join a Dust Exile clan.

I'm trying out Defiance right now. It's kind of fun, but I bought the game used (don't know if the new copy had a manual) and I'm completely lost with the system. It has a huge learning curve.
What's funny is I kept comparing a lot of the controls and shooting mechanics to dust because dust is all I know when it comes to shooters. Dust actually has some pretty tight controls, and I would have preferred Dust's gun game, but I'm having fun.
It probably helps that until now, Dust 514 was the only online game I had every played that involved a community of like-minded players. The next closest one is miiverse, if that gives you an idea of how much of an online noob I am.

That's cool, what's your PSN ID? I would like to add you and play with you when the game goes f2p this july.

well, I'm still on the fence about it. I still have Armored Core to try out and there's the destiny beta too. But I'll let you know if I decide to stick with defiance. I'm on there as Claire Eclair, but I don't know how to respond to anyone so any messages will probably go unanswered for awhile.

Armour Core Verdict Day is great with friends, really opens up a whole range of activity. Competitve online is really hardcore.

If you have a PC the game Battlefield 2142 is pretty much what inspired much of Dust's gameplay. It even has a skirmish mode with MCCs you can attack from inside and blow up. 64 player matches even. Only downside is it's from 2006, but that also means most PCs should be able to run it and it is cheap. |

I been playing Defiance for a while now in between Dust burn-outs. I will create a Dust Exiles Clan (PS3) Next time I'm on if it doesn't exist already.
There are some advantages to having the pay version:
http://www.defiance.com/en/game/overview/free-to-play/
And Amazon has it for 3 bucks right now:
http://www.amazon.com/Defiance-Playstation-3/dp/B00576U7W8/
It not a perfect game by any means and it has an even more toxic forum than this one buts it's definitely worth trying out. The show is pretty good too season 2 is coming out in June.

I have played a bit of Defiance on the xbox 360 and it is OK but some of the players in the game make our blueberries look like master tacticians. Might give it a try on the PS3.
Pre-ordered Destiny on the PS4 so should get the beta in Summer and will tryout PS2 when it appears.
You do not have to be crazy to play here but we are willing to train you.
