Well it would be RP realistic to keep slaves as an Amarr merc. Gallente could have drones. Caldari will have wageslave assistants. Minmatar will have... what is a good pet that feeds off of rust and failure?

If you can't get screenshots or developer interviews then start posting more actively in the Legion General Discussion again. Also... is CCP Rouge still with you?

dear op.
Destiny was a crappy 50$ BETA-DEMO of which was too small and extremely limited and geared more toward the Filthy Casuals hence destiny will not be much of a contender in the leasts..
CCP as a whole and having been a player of their games for years is more about sustaining the playerbase not just copping out and getting as many Hype purchases as possible in the shortest time before dieing off selling off and going Free 2 play..
now if you still feel the way you do please forward all your isk to me and uninstall dust and do not post on the forums again unless its an "IM BACK" topic outlineing how wrong you were about said game you left dust to play and get bored of very quickly.

Those are people making characters for the sole purpose of taking all the starting ISK, then biomassing them. That's not "growing" the playerbase.
watch what happens when CCP fixes the farming! Talk about bottoming out....... |

On a positive note, hotfix Delta should reduce the amount of ISK a merc starts with to 25,000. That should cut down on biomass-ISK farming. Now... why wasn't that done around 1.0 when players were first reporting it?
or just going back to giving new players starting skills liek in beta again so they don't need a lot of isk. if they're supplied with a bunch of starter skills and racial items (50 of each) it solves biomassing

Dust 514 is already F2P. I don't understand your argument here. CCP is attempting to tap into the large population of FPS gamers' wallets. To do that they will have to accept they are not the biggest fish in this pond. Eve Online has a pretty niche audience so they can afford to be picky there. Not here in MMOFPS-land.

Where in my entire post did I say I was quitting? You won't get a single ISK from me and I will post on these forums however many times I like so long as I don't get banned again.
P.S. - The TL;DR of my post was: We haven't heard anything about Legion in a while. CCP, are you still working on it? Destiny could draw some players away. Oh, btw, where is CCP Rogue?
Why would you argue with a post like that?! Are you against them talking about Legion with us? Do you not care when CCP employees promise to talk to us then vanish?

Legion is still being worked on; the reasonings for being quiet is that they're quite not ready to share yet. After all it still has its project label status. CPM has urged for increased communication and even a schedule but that can only go so far.

Its annoying I cannot share what I am glad to see so far. However my ultimate judgement (and likely everyone elses) cannot be made until I start getting my hands on it to see if legion is going the right direction.
Meanwhile Dust 514 if you been noticing has been cranking the gears up; I wonder how fast we can get this going. Time will tell.

Cranking the gears up? Well, the hotfixes have been amazing, but I'm not completely in love with CCP or anything. There seems to be more chatter regarding a possible client update soon(TM). That's pretty interesting.

Aside those other games did strip away players. When Skyrim went on sale with all the extras for $40s I started playing that more than Dust 514.

Don't get me wrong I will get Destiny when it comes out and will still play DUST514 time to time. But people, what truly kills a game is time and the community. Time is a good factor. Compared to games like COD since one comes out each year, there are people still playing MW2 online and it is still going on with no support, Borderlands 2 is still going on with no further support (despite the fact that a new Borderlands game is coming out SoonGäó), hell even Kingdom Hearts is still going with barely mentioning KH3 last E3.
The games I have seen that died due to time is Half-Life 2 since people stopped waiting for another addition, Need For Speed since EA strayed away from a system that worked back then and did not please the new generation, or even better (serving as a double advocate) EVERY FIRST PERSON SHOOTER AFTER 2006 BUT YET WE BUT THEM BECAUSE WE DO NOT KNOW ANY BETTER!!! This is due to the wheel not being reinvented but we kind of see in DUST514, HALO when it first came out before Bungie bailed on 4, and the new upcoming Destiny game with it's own re-inventing of the wheel.
And yes we the community kill the game with constant negative feedback and/or whining about the game. For example CCP does (can not believe I'm defending them) goes through a lot a crap when it comes to pleasing the community. best example is people crying that this weapon is Over Powered or my all time favorite He shouldn't be able to kill my suit with that gun. Constant whining and/or negative feedback = the developers will not hear you out especially cussing them out (I had my fair share of that). We as a community are too narcissistic to see how the changes we provide would affect others but also fail understand that there is no pleasing everyone unless there is a middle ground. And trust me when i say almost no one want to meet midway.
CCP developers are fully aware of the situation but they do need to do something to keep the retention rate high with the new players to the game and to the vets of the game. My suggestion to the community, stop playing seriously. By that I mean stop doing FOTM gear settings and try out a new fit every so often like one new fit a week or something. I bet if you do that the game would be a bit more fun than being serious. Hell I'm trying to think of fun fits when I catch myself being too serious. Keep trying to play serious to keep up with the FOTM, you will find the game getting boring quickly over time.

To be really fair, CCP didn't need any help with how they managed Dust up until a full year after full release.
Putting Rattati in charge was the only good thing they have done. The rest is all on him and Logibro.

Something that only has 22 missions, a squad of 3, and "events" where you find other people to kill things with for 5-10 minutes? I'd rather play Diablo 3. ^^ above poster does not no what he is talking about please igonre. Like really most of thst is out right wrong. Anyway soya as a point but the failed killers also sucked massively on realse. For reals its bren a bad year for AAA games. HOWEVER destiny does not suck and its competeing on Dust514 home console where it looks better runs better and has a lot of content in it :-). Sadly this one will hurt, during beta my friends list that is mostly players where all playing destiny the whole weeked thats 30 somthing of the dust players dropped it in mere moments for 10% of destinys gameplay. Egro the devs need somthing soild soon or this project is over.
Your typing is terrible, so I'll just not read it :D |
