When a gaming company pitches a new concept for a game and one of the things their most proud of is:
-Being able to backstab people that trust you

And encourage this kind of behavior by rewarding it (loot).




Does this sound familiar?

It sounds like the game I thought I was going to play when I started my closed beta profile over a year ago now. Instead we got lvl1 rat grinds with no standings to move up. It will be awesome when real politics start happening with Legion comes out. I know I don't stand alone in saying this... despite some of the bull I've been put through, that I still have faith in CCP now please don't wod oculus or legion no holds barred mmorpg needs to stay alive.

It's what EVE is about...... isn't the intrigue one of the reasons you came to Dust 514?

Nope,i came to Dust because i was bored and it was free.

And unlike all these "bonkers for Dust" people,i couldn't care less if the game shut down within the next 12 hours.

I'd never heard of EVE before Dust,and since there are methods installed by the game creators themselves to backstab with 0 penalty,i'll never play it.


And all the reasonings behind these "buffs & nerfs" is beyond baffeling.
It's as if they intentionally want Dust to fail.


Seriously,the recon unit out killing the killing unit?
The support unit being paper thin,slow,and less effective in combat?

Never in the history of gaming should you have a unit that only accels at "carrying stuff" without giving it some form of defense,whether it be speed,armor or weapons.

And instakills are insane too,600 damage in a single shot from the fastest unit? That's freaking crazy.
They shouldn't be able to have that much power and that much speed. (see also:Heavy + HMG + LAV)


And those "lolspecialities" where some weapons are supposed to be good vs a certain defense,yet RRs can annihilate shields at long ranges.

And shotguns can obliterate armor.


Unless CCP makes their effectiveness more extreme all weapons are equal,just using different models and firing speeds.

EG RR vs shields 50% vs armor 90%
Shotgun vs shield 110% vs armor 55 %

Perhaps then New Eden is not a place that will suit your.......fragile sensibilities......

A game about human nature in its most raw form? An example of nearly pure capitalism in a highly unregulated economy?

Yes, that is New Eden.

Faith is the perfect word for it: belief without evidence, or in spite of evidence to the contrary.

Well said chunky... Now isn't insanity repeating the same mistakes expecting different results? Think we've all been there at some time like I dunno when we last picked up an tankbush sans squad.

This game type is stupid beyond belief. If you are a believer, then I say your a stupid evetard. No hardcore shooter fan will play it. FPS players like Dust, because it necessitates teamwork not bullshit back stabbing-if CCP Kickaginger thinks it will work well that is fuktarded.

PVE should be a squad measuring tool that produces aggregate and grainular scores, based on-highest lvl, isk efficiency, death count, accuracy vs explosives damage etc. This data would then be CEO and Contract useful.


LOOT is for NOOBS and losers.

Yes call me weak,because i refuse to participate in a game that rewards being a traitor.
Trust is invaluable and traitors should be skinned alive as a warning to others.

Do you feel justified?
You have emersed yourself in evil so long you have become numb to it,and even happily partake at your leisure.

You are a deceived fool.

A good idea of how this "good and evil" works in EVE is a betrayal can utterly devastate all assets and ISK owned by the corp. Here you just go "meh I'll pop up free militia gear"; you're never really in liue of being so desolate that you can't bring anything to the table. Yes I've played Eve and the fact is this game isn't EVE and doesn't even have a well thought out game mechanics and that's where in lays the problem: this is a game that needs to have a good foundation to be successful and it's been lacking in it. I don't need anyone to bring in this whole EVE "role-playing", players want a functional game more than anything before hand.

betraying people is not in my nature. but i enjoy the fact i run the risk of being betrayed. use your head and take measures so they cant hurt you.

what do you think this is hello ******* kitty fun land?

stupid evetard

Pfff well when I am rolling in Bounties, NPC Dog Tags, and general wealth for extended and careful trips to the Salvage fields I'll be sitting on my vinyard estate in High Sec, sipping a cup of spiced wine and nibbling the finest if Amarrian delicacies noting with supreme satisfaction I made a **** ton of money and defeated other aggressive player groups.

I am actually all about the combining of PvE and PvP in Dust.

Sure you can try and farm goodies out on the salvage fields but a group off pirates and ruffians might simply be following you from site to site until they can kill and loot you for the goods.

Like I said loot game types are fuktarded, and your whole sipping and nibbling description colors it properly.
