They are hoping everyone will forget about it. While at the same time hoping that everyone forgets about Dust to go to Legion and pursue the 'full mercenary career'.

I know this game is going to hell, I just don't care. I'm cool with trolling people with plasma cannons for my own amusement, its only 10 bucks out of my pocket so who gives a ****. Rattati has made this game playable so i'll toss in 10 dollars worth to boost my commando trolling. Now instead of changing the topic how about someone answer my simple question.

Meta-Answer: For as long as they keep thinking that you will buy them.
Short answer: a month.

Yeah, that's kinda my philosophy. I could spend 20 bucks on a movie, and get 2 hours of enjoyment out of it, or spend 20 bucks on Dust, and get hundreds of hours. And then go and dl the movie somewhere. Even if the game is dead, I still got my entertainment value out of it.

I'm not hating on guys that spent money on Dust....I spent money on Dust. I just don't see the point in it anymore since they placed it on death's row. Maybe if the gameplay was that awesome, then I would understand.

The way you go on about spending money its like you think we're blowing 100s of dollars on a regular basis. Its been a year since i've spent any money on this game Lol. Planetside 2 is taking it's sweetass time to come out so a pimp's gotta do something to kill the time.

Why are you being so defensive? I don't care what you do with your money, fam...it's yours, you earned it. My irrelevant opinion on this is I don't see how anyone could put another literal penny into CCP's pocket for Dust.

Defensive no, but the way you voiced your opinion I interpreted it differently. Either way we're all entitled to our own opinion on the matter so to each his own.

Is it the game they sold us in 2009? nope.
Is it a game that has been running for over a year that has got added to and continued to be worked on? ya...
Are there still around 50-100k players playing DUST every month? yah....
Will DUST magically disappear on a date? nopes.. not even a day has been mentioned. Or a green light for Legion...
Do people still put hours in gaming and enjoying DUST as a pass time? yes....
Will DUST probably be here this time next year? Yes.
Seems like the investment might have some merit, and comparing to many DLC's, expansions, Skins.. It might even be a better investment. |

Prior to Fanfest, I would have cosigned this. But believing that Dust will continue as planned isn't logical. The evidence is all there that dust will be backlogged for legion. Even by some divine intervention, that Legion is scrapped....there is no plan or desire to move dust to the ps4. That signifies stagnation...stagnation = death
We can't believe that there is a 10 year ps3 plan. And 50k

I never said DUST will be here under that title in 10 years...
However will DUST be here this time next year on the ps3? Probably.. will it get continued to be tweaked and added to in that time? probably. It makes sense in so many ways for CCP.
How many online based games have had that life span on console that hasn't been directly or indirectly ran by Sony or Microsoft? Given that, it's a decent investment if your enjoying the DUST 514 productt.
Fanfest was overwhelmed by poor word choice in the presentation for DUST 514's key note speech, i urge you to go back and try and rewatch it with an open mind, they presented and showed a pretty amazing game. Was hard for myself to do aswell as I see the future of New Eden revolving around console consumers.
Warframe Was being developed around the same time as DUST with even more restrictive funding, budget and marketing division. Yet it was easy once they had the product built on PC to easy port it onto the Playstation 4 upon Launch.
Dust would be in that boat right now if they understood the console life cycle a bit better and even the market. Which is SOOOOO Frustrating for a CCP Fan... They HIRED David Reid As their Chief Marketing Officer, Reid was president of publishing at NCsoft West. He was also vice president of marketing for game portal GameTap and director of the Xbox global platform marketing for Microsoft.
This guy should live and breath consoles... I just don't get it.
Fallout4 has been in development for 6 years and they plan another 2.. GTA has a development life cycle of 5-7 years.. Legion even if they have alot of assets from DUST they can use is still 2 years of development +
Dust isn't going anywhere.
And as other countries start to accept PS3 tech like all of South America.. parts of Asia... India.. DUST 514 will only keep growing new players. |

spending some expendable income on a hobby is nothing.. A Country club membership is 40 thousand dollars a year. Video games is one of the cheapest recreations you'll find.
Time is money.. Even recreation time.
Even spending a couple bucks on DUST, I have spent 10x the amount of cash on energy drinks if not 100x. |

And 50k I appreciate where you are coming from, but I disagree that just because things didn't turn out as planned, that it means the game is no longer worth spending money on.
Look: I spent money on this game originally, not for the BPOs or the suits or the boosters or the promise of a 10 year lifecycle, but because as a 40 year old adult, I recognize the fact that not one damn thing in this life is free. Ever. Somebody, somewhere has to pay for this game, and if you have spent any amount of time enjoying it, you have the moral obligation to contribute, and if you are not, you are a bit of a mooch.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to make a mountain out of a molehill here -- as far as moral obligations go in the Grand Scheme of Things, it's pretty trivial -- it's about the same level as listening to NPR on your local public radio station, and then ignoring them during pledge week (i.e., you feel a little tingle of guilt, and then forget about it.) And I'm not really calling out all the high school players, or even the poor college kids who'd rather have booze money that put 10 bucks into a buggy game. I get that, because I was them at one point.
But if you are an employed adult with even a modest amount of disposable income, and you are still playing this game, there's no real excuse to stop supporting it monetarily if you continue to enjoy it, even now. Somebody's gotta pay for the servers and Rattati's hotfixes, and none of it is free. And if players continue contributing, the game will stay alive, if somewhat stunted, because CCP like money. Pretty simple.

Can I throw in my two isk? If you're one of those players who think its stupid to put money into a game now, you missed the boat.
Cause with that argument, you shouldn't have spent money on this game in the first place. If you choose to put money into the game now, its your choice.
You spend it with the exact knowledge that you're giving real world money to a game for items or in game money. This game isn't some other game where you can actually gain some of that back through the sale of characters or other means.
If you spent money in the beginning or later, it doesn't matter. If you're concerned about putting money into this game now, then you shouldn't have even did it before. You are thinking under the wrong pretense. Ha, imagine me telling my lovely bride to be that I put money into a video game. LOL! |
