Not trolling either, I think this is a very interesting topic.
What do you feel brings the amount of unprofessional whining not typically seen in other communities in regards to balance? Plenty of games are not very balanced, but only in the Dust community do you see such a large amount of teenage angst surface in what are theoretically full grown adults. |

Dust is a shooter (skills based game) and also an mmo (time and investment based game) this game is not all skill, that's a fact. That means some people can be more competitive without being as good as the person they are beating because of skill bonuses from suits, ehp, and weapon damage output. There IS a lot of skill involved but time played and role chosen affect performance as well. It makes sense that people would complain more here as opposed to a game forum like say, league of legends where the game is entirely skill based beside earning runes which everyone is able to do relatively quickly.
EDIT: Just wanted to add that these forums are probably the most mature that i have ever witnessed for an online game. Especially compared to LoL or any asian style mmorpg forum. Where most people give unrelated answers to legit questions to try and get a laugh or an upvote. |

Yeah Because League of Legends, DOTA and Smite are pretty freaking balanced.
The community will become that with time there already are starting in the local chat with the am a pro and uninstall, the disease will spread even more just give it some time.
Defiance feels better even with the specific that i can't like from that open world. I can see events with more than 40 players without lagging like hell.

I say the level of whining here is higher than any other game/simulator I have ever been in throughout my life. Of course, some of the whining is warranted like when people complained about the proto SL change as the new reticule for the sniper rifle, but I'm talking about whiners who whine for no reason other than to just whine and you see them whining over things that are not even or are no longer game breaking.

League of Legends is a joke(choose the OP champion you can get use to it pretty fast and there you go), skills bullcrap, competitive players more bullcrap they are just winning kiddos who doesn't respect other players(that is not competitive), am glad that @opera.com domain was shut down if not i will still be able to see that account.
Bloodline Champions i start when just was released was fun until i leave, when i comeback with other account the game become equally bullcrap, after the tutorial the new players where trashed instantly only because for being new to the game, at least was balanced.

This is a good point.
I personally like Rattati's attitude towards balance, but I think he has an impossible job. There doesn't seem to be a way to placate the community on anything. If the scout does what it needs to do, its overpowered to everyone else. If the heavy does what its supposed to do, it's overpowered to everyone else. If the assault can kill any target, nobody feels the need to play anything else. If the logi can't kill anything, he's underpowered, and if he can kill other people he's better then the assault therefore overpowered.
If tanks are better than infantry, zomg how dare they be better thats not fair. If tanks are as good as infantry, then whats the point of spending the money on a tank?
It's an endless cycle of stupid arguing. |

-"I don't like anti-infantry tanks cos' they kill infantry, nerf them". -"I can't insta kill with the Scrambler rifle, buff them". -"I can't harass tank with my ADS, buff them". -"I don't like Combat rifles they shoot bullets with too much speed, nerf them enough times until they become at the same level of the Flaylock along with all of the Minmatar gear". -"I don't like splash damage, remove them". -"Turrets use aim assist and they shoot me, disabled them". -"Heavier weapons do stagger effect i don't like to feel like that, remove it is not tactical". -"I want respec".

Wait really? No really? What's next, we've confirmed the existence of the Lockness monster now? If we assume they listened to the community feedback and researched it, the game wouldn't be in this condition at all. Massive updates with now Dust limited to just hot fixes means they're not so much listening to what the feedback is but basically keeping the ship from sinking. If this game were a ship, it'd be the Titan after hitting an iceberg where everyone in charge is calm and collective and unable to **** bricks as to the horrible fate awaiting them. This ship WILL sink and it's not a case of "if" but "when". Anyone since launch knows the litany of rants that have plagued this game.
And while I agree the playerbase doesn't always knows what's best, the same can be said of the developers too. And unless i take Rat's words out of context, hotfixes and no updates means they can only do so much to effect the game dynamics. The fact that we're still tweaking game balance a year into the game isn't a positive sign in any way, shape or form.

There's also the new player-dev frame of communications whether it be forums or social media where you can vent your rage. Back then you'd just take a keyboard and whack the guy next to you.

That would be because most other games don't make changes to the environment without testing them first, because the result is often an inflammatory result as can be seen here. Most other games have a person who is dedicated to a singular role or more if they can change characters to do so, which allows them to take a realistic view of the environment the game is in. DUST, however, does not have such a thing. This is why they make the CPM because they do not have as much commitment to the game as other developers do.
Smaller development teams (Red5) and Larger development teams (Blizzard) both take the time to actually run their ideas through a private server to evaluate with these said specialized individuals. But CCP does not. Why? They have never given a reason.
Things like armor balance vs weapon damage is something that CCP has never understood. EVER. They amplified bullet damage a while back, then wondered why people were not enjoying the game because they were dying too quickly. They thought this would be a great way to get Aurum sales up, but it failed horribly. Nobody wanted to buy such things that would collapse faster than they could recognize their use.
Since that time, they have been INCREASING the health and shields of EVERY SUIT across the board. Makes you wonder why they don't just drop weapon damage instead to get to the same result faster. Or it does, until you realize they don't like looking "inconclusive" so if they give a patch, they don't like completely reversing it the next iteration, they try to sidestep around for 4 patches or so until they're back at the point they originally left from.
Basically, they make bad decisions, but don't want to admit it publicly, so they try to side step around with "new decisions" to try to make it look like they "have a definite path" when really they just walked back and forth over the same spot 4 times...

The fact that people complain about balance in the game proves that people are competing on some level. The only reason to complain is because things are not going their way, and for something to not go there way they have to be trying to win and failing -- ergo, competing.
It may be on a player scale instead of a team scale, but there is competition happening.
And as far as PC goes, only psuedo-rivalries exist due to demotivational mechanics inherent in the system.
Dust as a game may be bad, but that doesn't mean people aren't attempting to compete in it. Quality =/= competition. Now if you're not actually playing the game, then all that means is you're not competing. That doesn't mean anything about the rest of the playerbase. |

Ah people compete in every game that has PvP but that doesn't make it competitive.
Competitive play requires set parameters where the best simply excel because they are better.
In dust, sp, latency, HP, weapon function and isk are all variables that make competitive play impossible in dust.
I love dust, don't get me wrong but it has never been competitive and I like it that way.

I don't think whining is something that happens just on the DUST forums.
I went on the planetside 2 forums the other day. Whining everywhere - this is OP, that's OP, why did you nerf that, etc. Today I encountered a game called 'Robocraft'. I go on the forums, and 'why did you nerf railguns', etc etc.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

No seriously that last one, their newest trailer for the newest expansion on Youtube. They were even arguing on there.
And let's not forget the EVE Online forums. Granted it's some of the best baiting/counter-baiting trolling/counter-trolling and spreadsheet warrior-ing I've ever seen.

Its the lack of respecs.
You spend 6 weeks getting that proto dropsuit only to watch it nerfed into the ground 4 weeks later. You can't reallocate that SP into a new, more viable, suit so what are your other options?
1. Quit (oh look how small this community actually is!) 2. Whine and complain on the forums and hope the devs will fix your suit.
What you see then is a fairly even distribution of both of these, with a dying community full of crying and whining children.

Thing about, at least in any other lobby fps I've ever played, Dust is that your choices in its SP system are invalidated periodically by patches and hotfixes, if we are talking at a competitive level. Something that takes months to accomplish gets switched around and CCP says go **** yourself when people ask to have the points returned. And it can't easily be ignored because again in other fps games there isn't an arbitrary skill system that locks you out of gear for months to years. When something is imbalanced in other shooters you can just use the damn thing that is OP to stay competitive. In this, you have to either be a Beta vet that skilled into everything, or you have to give up on being competitve/go play a better game.
LoL is a different genre and game, and even LoL a week or two of playing will net you a champion or more if you feel one champion is better than another. Most lobby shooters just don't even bother to implement a massive mmorpg like grind system into their mechanics.
There is a lot of QQ because there is a lot of time wasting bullshit that goes on in this game while the devs write songs about "HTFU!" in a video game designed for entertainment. Not everyone is into S&M and just want to have fun.
From a competitive perspective this game is anti-competitve as it sets newcomers far behind vets. Take Starcraft 2 for instance, there are pro starcraft 2 players that never played starcraft one and there are pros that have played both. If Starcraft operated as Dust does, the Starcraft 2 newcomers could never compete at a competitive level as they lag so far behind the original Starcraft players in terms of (Time played) or in Dust's case (Time played + character creation age.) |

Yes I like making sure the coffin stays shut bro. And yes dude, all the lames, like you, talk the same. You've been here a long time talking about how you don't play the game and how we should wish you don't pick up the controller again. It's lame dude. You're a gimmick loner.
Once again, go outside, do some physical activity for a change, and touch a boob.

Wow, ok, first Cobra is most likely gettin' some. Second, it isn't his testosterone that allows him to come back, it's the dopamine that he gets from reading a response that keeps him coming back. Third, it's true he isn't coming back to Dust unless begged by the people he plays with, if he calls them his friends is questionable for reasons that could only be speculated upon. Forth, Krixus, I haven't seen such excessive use of "bro" since The Fast and Furious 2. Fifth, I know I shouldn't post but hey, I'm an addict too.

Plenty of games are not very balanced, but only in the Dust community do you see such a large amount of teenage angst surface in what are theoretically full grown adults.
I think most game balance whining in any community is "unprofessional", and it exists. If anything, I'd suggest we see MORE feedback because of how much CCP does listen and participate, even if we don't usually think they do a good enough job. It's hard to complain about a game to a company that does a one-and-done game release. MMO communities where there's regular patching and balancing does seem to breed an environment like this.
Way back when I remember seeing much of the same on the WoW community (hangs head in shame, yes, I've played it, and check back on it occasionally), although Blizzard cracks down on conduct and bad behavior much harder that CCP's team does. A lot of the trolls and purely negative posters on the DUST forums would have been permabanned from Blizzard's forums a long time ago. That might speak to a need for more moderation here on the DUST forums, I think an ISD program would help a lot. (Another note, is that communities of paid MMOs like WoW, you have to be paying for the game to post, whereas a lot of people trolling the DUST forums haven't played the game in months.)
When you get rid of the trolls, I actually think you'd find a lot of constructive feedback here.

This will be my last post regarding this as I don't usually talk with Banished mercs, Shadows of their former selves.
Quote:It's not hard to use alt codes to bypass filters, is this your first day on the internet? To answer your question, No.
Bro, Your idea of what relevant is...is wrong. Being relevant to somebody means you are a known factor that in any way affects them. In this case Dust 514. Now correct me if i'm wrong here but you do not affect me in-game. When are you going to get it through your thick skull that your time at the top is over.
Our generation of souljas are taking over and running things. You and all the people that left with you are non-factors. When you say I am not relevant you are true, I don't play what you play I don't affect you I am not relevant. The same applies to you and everybody else and vice versa. You are irrelevant to the whole Dust 514 community, Some days you never cross our minds.
Engaging on the forums while you can't/refuse to play is a hint of an addiction. I sincerely recommend using the appropriate methods whether it be meditation or seeing a doctor to cure it.
