Welcome, pal.

Your post is much like all other CCP Dev posts. Vague, dodging critical questions and up selling Dust 514 Aurum sales. Granted it's only an introduction thread, yet it's still very disappointing. All of this "soon" nonsense needs to go.

Critical questions;

1.) Will we get new maps, ever? (not new sockets)
2.) Will we ever see a player market? Ya know, the thing MANY players have been waiting for for months.
3.) Is the overhaul to PC cancelled?
4.) Why continue developing Dust only server side? When the game needs more client side updates if anything.

Is this due to;
A.) Lack of talent on the development team?
B.) Lack of care on CCPs part?
C.) Satisfying your agreement with Sony by giving minimal updates so you do not have to pay back refunds?
D.) All of the above.

I'll check back from time to time to see if you bothered to answer any of these questions. I know the life of a CCP Dev must be very difficult, so I'll expect your answers Soon(tm).

1) No new maps on horizon, theoretically possible
2) No
3) No
4) Server side fixes are low hanging fruit, I also believe hardly used content that becomes viable counts as "semi-new" content. See the balancing video I posted in the Dev Spotlight for insight.

2) Ok how about letting us just trade items among each other ie I cant use the proto forge guns but I have a big honking pile of them and I'd like to give them to the player in my corp who can?

I'd honestly prefer a way to just sell all the stuff we don't use and pass on the ISK gained to other players so they can just buy it themselves. Trading is wonky and generally requires you find to find someone that wants the stuff you're trying to offload. Selling the stuff to an NPC, on the other hand, effectively removes -ALL- the unnecessary assets you don't want and you get ISK for it.... which, as stated, is a more effective trade material than the item itself.

I am impressed - seriously. @ CCP Rouge - putting CCP Rattati in the Dust driver seat is a very solid move. Well played. @ CCP Rattati - I am extremely glad you've taken this on in stead of new face. You've been here with us for a while and you are definitely one of the "Player's Dev" guys. Your transparency and positive well thought-out responses in this discussion are incredibly welcome. Some questions for you... 1) What areas are you specifically looking forward to engaging the CPM on? 2) Based on your play experience - what would do YOU most want addressed if you were in OUR position? 3) Lastly, would you be interested in doing an interview with us on the Biomassed Podcast to speak about what you would like to see happen in Dust and the player community as we continue to support Dust and build towards Legion together? Again, great move by CCP. +1 (and then some) "Endless money forms the sinews of War." - Cicero Skype: jaysyn.larrisen Twitter: @JaysynLarrisen

If Project Legion is green lit, we intend to migrate your character over if you wish and our goal is to preserve as much of your emotional, financial and time investment as possible. This is the subject I wanted clarification on, this, for me is the biggest issue beyond anything else. I was excited about the announcement, I was excited about some real clarification on the only issue i really cared about. And I got a vague explanation, words and phrases like like "intend" and "as much as possible" don't fill me with confidence. I am also an eve player and I couldn't imagine the fallout from the eve community if CCP told us "hey we are making the next step in eve, but aren't sure if you are going to get to keep all your skill points, we intend to let you keep as many applicable points as possible but we aren't sure yet. It wouldn't be OK in EVE and it shouldn't be OK in DUST The other thing that really gets me is this CCP Blowout wrote: Well, SPECTROLL, I welcome our new Icelandic overlord. Spectral Clone made a good point in his post and for a dev to flame him kinda rubs me the wrong way, he made a good point and he deserved more than what you guys gave him. Anyway, I am disappointed in the "announcement" and will continue to sit on t he sidelines of one of my favorite shooters until I get more clarification on the only issue that is important to me, SP. inb4: We dont need you Stay on the sidelines crybaby ect. ect. Only the insane have the strength enough to prosper. Only those who prosper may truly judge what is sane.

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 5558	Posted - 2014.05.19 11:16:00 - [189] - Quote There are a few things I consider necessary for DUST to have a future. A handful of those things are very, VERY unlikely to be possible with the limitation of server side updates. -PvE. Just a simple single-squad survival mode against Rogue Drones. It doesn't need to be any more than the most basic of setups, but it's something DUST needs if it's going to hold onto the bitter players we still have left. -Custom controls. There are a few key options missing. LAVs have a semi-competent controller layout option, but that option is unavailable to HAVs, and the only option available is terrible. The controller layout options for normal operation are extremely limited and having custom remapping options would solve all the problems. -Player Market. Even something as simple as adding a "give item" option so players can work out our own market system by one side giving an item and the other giving ISK. Actually adding a proper trading system would be better though. Even if you couldn't trade BPOs, it would be a step in the right direction. Obviously, I know I don't have any real authority over the decisions being made, but I've been here since closed beta, and I've been waiting for a LOT of things to happen in DUST, many of which were totally reasonable and within the capabilities of the PS3 to deliver. The above requests are things I know the PS3 can handle, because they've been done - and in some cases done on a larger scale - in other games before DUST.

Amadi is right, as much as I don't normallyi like agreeing with him :P Well, I appreciate that, but player trading does have it's pros as well as it's cons. The pros of a liquidation system is that I can crudely "trade" items by giving you the ISK from the stuff I can't use, being sold to an NPC. This effectively clears the hanger of unnecessary assets, potentially improves the performance and accessibility of the fitting screen, allows for easier fitting (since having only one module on a fit where everything else is at zero leaves causes unnecessary expenditure when restocking the entire fitting). EDIT: It also caters to those of us with excruciating cases of OCD who buy in excess just to see even numbers The cons, however, are that I can't give you things like Aurum, Faction, and Officer gear; something that the player base has been desperately wanting for as long as anyone can remember. That would be effectively solved with a player trading system, but there are problems associated with it: It potentially could require more dev resources to design/develop, there are unintended consequences (one dude with a lot of expendable income buying everyone a bunch of aurum gear), and there's no guarantee that you'll find someone to barter the item to. Just saying, good luck finding someone to give all those myrofibral stimulants to. Another consideration is that there are some items that aren't on the salvage table. For some strange reason, I've never once gotten a laser rifle from salvage. -Shrug- Players that use those missing items would be exempt from any actual benefit of a player trading system. All-in-all, I think the NPC Market + Liquidation of Assets is the best way to go as it applies to the most amount of the player-base in the most efficient way, but I'm open to suggestions and am optimistic about being proved wrong.

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 15141	Posted - 2014.05.21 07:13:00 - [198] - Quote I doubt a functional NPC market is even feasible at this point and ultimately by function Liquidation will fulfill the same purpose. It may be possible to be able to liquidate but that would likely require some gimmickry that really deserves a full UI overhaul (even if it is just one word or popup) to accommodate it. Overall it is something to explore with the changes we are restricted to as we move forward and maybe something we can add to the list of 'wants' if the gloves ever come off and we're allowed to take a look under the hood.

I think liquidation should defiantly be on the "wanted list", even if it is the last client update we get. A complete UI overhaul seems overkill, but a simple menu option somewhere in the inventory with "sell item" would suffice. AUR gear and BPOs can be tricky, but I would be fine to exclude those all together from the sell option.

They can also wear armor plates and stack armor as high as 700 while still running 8 mps?! How is that fair to other players? Scouts, like heavies, should have weapon types. Heavy suits or actual sentinel suits should not be able to use light weapons in heavy slots. Logis and scouts should only use side arms and scout weapons since their skill in battles reside elsewhere. Scouts should only be able to wear ferro scale plates as their small frame is built for speed. Where on that suit would you put a plate that a heavy wears, and still run at that speed while the heavy can not do the same? My only true complaint since playing this game is the imbalance. 1.7 strengthened tanks, but left ground troops practically defenseless?! 1.8 unleashed the racial fits for all races in scout and heavy frame! That was awesome! However, with this the scouts became assault players?! They don't snipe, hack, or hide like scouts. They are in the thick of battle trading blows with heavies and assaults, and winning! Bring back the advantage of team tactics! Sure scouts can drop remotes and decimate an entire squad, but now their actually attacking whole squads with rifles head on?! Is that balance? Now imagine a whole squad of them, and you can see why the whole map is red in skirmish. Whole teams refusing to fight because they can't even spawn into the game without being attacked by cloaked scouts?! A scout can the same armor and shield as an assault player, kill you at delta, and meet you at charlie?! Why run anything else when the scout with a cloak and combat rifle is the answer to all your problems? Advantage, disadvantage! Advantage, disadvantage! Why do blaster tanks get to rep their shields and/or armor so fast while having the fire rate of an assault rifle with the range of a sniper rifle? Some can rep all their armor/shield before I can charge my forge gun or lock on with swarms?! The missile and rail tanks are actually built for tank on tank combat. They aren't built to take on troops, but the blaster is just easy mode for the player who has no ground game. I now have a militia rail setup just for fighting tanks. Tired of being camped at my ever so intelligent smart deploy by multiple blaster tanks in ambush?! Just want everything to have a downside, and tanks and scouts don't right now. Can it be fixed? "Anybody order chaos?"

Then I'd be a very happy dust bunny.

It may be possible to be able to liquidate but that would likely require some gimmickry that really deserves a full UI overhaul (even if it is just one word or popup) to accommodate it. Overall it is something to explore with the changes we are restricted to as we move forward and maybe something we can add to the list of 'wants' if the gloves ever come off and we're allowed to take a look under the hood. We don't WANT a functional NPC market. We want a basic, kittened up semblance of a player market. We want a "give item" option alongside "give money" so we can make something for ourselves that functions at least sort of like a player market. No need for NPCs, no need for more than our current system of purchases. Just a single new option in one menu. And (extremely limited) PvE. I know we're going to be told this is also "not feasible", but it SHOULD BE. There was NO valid reason why PvE never made it into DUST before it was "released". There is NO valid reason why it took this long to NOT be added. There will NEVER be a valid reason why there's no PvE in DUST.
