Through all the ups and downs CCP has crafted an FPS with character progression, risk and reward, balance, diversity, and squad/team play that are all on a whole other level than anything else. The guns, equipment, and dropsuits in DUST complement each other perfectly, and each weapon is perfectly, uniquely imagined. We take it for granted, but we should appreciate what we've got here. Go play Destiny and see how the PVP compares. Frantic CQC day and night. Jet packs whoopee!!
No other FPS has weapons with the variety of ranges, damage profiles, handling, and well...character to compare with DUST. No other FPS has such a variety of roles, with each race having a unique spin on that role. Hunter, Warlock, or Titan?? Puh-lease!!
No other FPS has ever been iterated on, refined, and balanced nearly as much as DUST has since 05/13. The game has evolved like nothing I've ever seen.
I dearly hope that CCP can keep this game going, even if they have to move to PC (PS3's dying anyway), and continue it's amazing development, because DUST is the fine wine of shooters. Yes, the graphics are a bit outdated, the performance (if you don't have a solid state drive) is not great, the lag suuuuuuucks, the weapons and vehicles are incomplete, the sandbox is very limited, there's no cooperative PVE, and the NPE is brutal, but CCP listed all those things as reasons they're moving to PC, so they can protostomp all those nagging problems.
In it's sphere, EVE is The Game. Nothing else compares (if that's what you're into). People who haven't gotten into it Just Don't Know. DUST is becoming the same thing for shooters. Don't give up CCP!! |

The customization of dropsuits is what really gets me. What other game let's you decide how your dropsuit functions on the battlefield, even if it's not designed for that particular role. The only actual suit with someone the other suits can't have is the sentinel with a heavy machine gun.

EVE and Dust are literally the only two games I play anymore.
No other game in any genre, especially FPSs, come even close to matching the diversity, character progression, risk/reward and player community that can be found within New Eden.
I truly hope CCP can make Legion the game we all wanted Dust to be, because I doubt any other FPS will fill the void when Dust's last day arrives.
Gun control is not about guns...it's about control.
The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

It is one of a kind. And with the recent hotfixes finally giving it the life it needed a long time ago, it's actually fun. No other game has challenged me greater than Dust and no other game has frustrated me more than Dust. I played Watch_Dogs not too long ago but then came back to Dust. I play Halo 3 and Super Smash Bros Brawl with my friends every weekend, but then focus the rest of my week playing Dust. Something about Dust just keeps me coming back for some reason. It's not the fact that I invested my time already or the fact that I don't want to biomass my character. It's something else. I don't know what it is.

Agreed.
The best shooter out there. Make no mistake about it. Probably too good if anything as many people out there prefer games that have been dumbed down and/or handicapped one way or another.

It truly is refreshing to see a growing number of posts in recent days, applauding the plus points of the game rather than focusing on its faults, which it still has, not pretending otherwise.
With work continuing on the Hotfix process, we can hopefully further reduce those faults.

The thing that keeps me in DUST is that with other games getting to the end game is fairly strait forward and it won't take that long to reach such as destiny, but in DUST there is no end game and you can always unlock new suits/ weapons when you get bored and it gives progression a meaning |

I love dust, best FPS I have ever played, set in a universe that is enjoyable to read about even if you don't play eve.
Though I am having fun with the pve in destiny I know I'll be back. To be honest I needed a break from all the frustration and time wasted watching my sp slowly grind towards my next lvl 4 skill. While I let my passive sp build up I am distracting myself with a decent game until I return to the skies of new eden once more.
I've said it once and I'll say it again, no other game gives me the thrill that I have when I'm behind the stick of my python. Feels good man.

Exactly. Due to the progression and customization you can really get into it as your own game, your personal, unique process of refining and exploring what you want to do. And the game is always evolving and balancing, with new elements being added over time and old ones being refined. Some of those elements we haven't seen much of (PVE, sandbox, etc.) but are currently being developed and have always been part of the plan. |

What I wouldnt give for some refined mechanics, new maps, player market, and pve. Dust would be the best thing out there and could easily sell for 60 dollars. Hell ive spent hundreds on it like it is now.

I lost it at "balanced". I agree, it's unique, but it pisses most players off 90% of the time. Especially the new ones.
Destiny is ok, it has PvE, PvP, and a WORKING AND NOT ANNOYING SNIPER RIFLE. But that's just me. I think Destiny isn't worth 70Gé¼ though. Much less with the amount of content they give, but hey, we have to wait for the other 10 DLC's Activi$ion's going to release for... 39.99$? Who the f**k made those DLC's!? |

I dont agree here, long time before i was in club "destiny will kill dust", but honestly and with all objectivity.
Destiny and Dust are different games.
With different kind of lores and with different system.
From my side of view is really ridiclous to compare two absolutely differend kinds here.
Dust have really great skill system, what is nearest to i thing skill tree in MAG (the game what i love and what i have like pinacle of massive gaming).
I like Dust with its design and ideas, but i lke destiny for its aspect, technical finish and pve too.
Dust can be awesome, but it needs some time.
And to OP, warlocks, titans and hunters..hell yeah..same yeah like to Scouts, Heavies and Logies here.
There is only one spot who is on Dust and thats that toon of thingies what was told and still not implemented.
Both games have great thingies in, but how i told.
They are both really different, in nerdie view that like comparing Destiny with that StarWars aspect to Dusts StarTrek aspect.
Nothing else.
I simply have fun with both

Well lets be honest, if you are here to snipe, you're not really into pvp action. Yes in Destiny you can run around and quick scope. Have fun with that.

It is really just how much room you have to be bad. In a loose game like cod you can be poop and still get kills in this game if you make mistakes and solo a lot your going to have a hard time.This game rewards strategy or piloting assault drop ships so if you like to solo that is prolly a good bet.
It is the reason that they will add some pveish content in P:L so it will be a bit more forgiving to those that don't want to be farmed by ads every time they play a match. |

Soloing is the only way to go for me, I get no kills in a squad. I prefer the ol' lone wolf. I'll still be getting as much kills as a squad member.(I also do a bit ads flying, but I'm better on ground) |

That sums up my thoughts as well. I was thinking yesterday about what I would do if Legion was not greenlit, and I came to the sad conclusion that I would probably have to switch to 3rd person and probably fantasy theme to get even close to what I want out of a game. I like the FPS format, and I am definitely more into science fiction than fantasy, but there just isnGÇÖt anything else out there that comes even close!

This thread is about fps, deus ex was rpg 
About rpg gaming i thing the best one for me was Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines by Troika games.
That game was and for me still is great in every aspect of gaming, sadly u must patch it and really hardstyle

you can't even F with doom it was before it's time.. there were no survival horror/fps the genre was in it's infancy if even that... there was wolfenstien but it didnt hold candle to dooms scare factor- this was before survival horror genre was even invented so doom won by default, there was nothing to compete with it at it's time- it was a game for it's time that filled a void where no game had yet been invented to fill it., then came Doom.

It's the only FPS I've ever bothered with PvP. Other games are missing the risk/reward of DUST, which means deaths HURT. It's such an awesome concept that really ramps up the intensity for me. The skill system is excellent (every skill does need a bonus though) and I love how you can quickly get into a role, but it takes significant investment to master it. I really hope we don't loose any of this with Legion.
Controls need more polish, and it's annoying that you get hung up on terrain. Matchmaking needs work (the team balancing has been excellent though), and we do need a first class gameplay tutorial mission, with a highly polished NPE that includes an optional 2nd tier academy mode for players under 5 millionish SP. I really hope we get full racial parity with the missing vehicles, turrets, and heavy weapons (maybe in early 2015? Please CCP?). I'd like to see vehicles get all of the modules added back in DUST, and eventually capacitors and ewar modules for Legion. I want players to build a 30 million ISK tank and have it crippled by a gang who ambushed you while you were doing PvE and ransomed back to you for a bunch of ISK. No other FPS would have that kind of gameplay depth.
I also want to have missions on wrecks in 0g space with flickering lights (like Dead Space) that coordinate with EVE players doing exploration missions. These would be like dungeons in other MMO's. See the link in my sig.
And of course I want to have huge epic battles with over a hundred mercs, with a huge variety of terrain: deep canyons, water, caves, jungles, swamps, forests, etc. rich and tactical terrain that require teamwork and smart coordination to succeed. Eventually I want them to expand to other planet types (probably ice and barren at first) but eventually to lava planets, ocean planets (naval and subaquatic combat), and gas/plasma planets where we fight in Sky City type structures over a bottomless expanse of swirling clouds and gasses.
If CCP could pull that off, Legion would be so incredible. I don't expect much of that stuff at launch, but if they build the right foundation, it would allow the rest of it to come. I have serious fears about dumbing things down too much, instead of improving the confusion with better tutorials, menus, and UX design. The soul of this game is fantastic, it just needs more polish and refinement as well as implementing the missing stuff.
Best PvE idea ever!

No other FPS has weapons with the variety of ranges, damage profiles, handling, and well...character to compare with DUST. No other FPS has such a variety of roles, with each race having a unique spin on that role. Hunter, Warlock, or Titan?? Puh-lease!!
No other FPS has ever been iterated on, refined, and balanced nearly as much as DUST has since 05/13. The game has evolved like nothing I've ever seen.
I dearly hope that CCP can keep this game going, even if they have to move to PC (PS3's dying anyway), and continue its amazing development, because DUST is the fine wine of shooters. Yes, the graphics are a bit outdated, the performance (if you don't have a solid state drive) is not great, the lag suuuuuuucks, the weapons and vehicles are incomplete, the sandbox is very limited, there's no cooperative PVE, and the NPE is brutal, but CCP listed all those things as reasons they're moving to PC, so they can protostomp all those nagging problems.
In its sphere, EVE is The Game. Nothing else compares (if that's what you're into). People who haven't gotten into it Just Don't Know. DUST is becoming the same thing for shooters. Don't give up CCP!! Drugs are bad.
Just curious which one people play that's better?
The IMPs and and lot of PFBHz left a long time ago. I still wonder what game they went to.

I will give you a hint. Most of us are either too busy with real life these days and when we are not, we are playing some game from bungie.

I wouldn't necessarily say Dust is the best FPS, but it is the only FPS to have hooked my attention for over a year and a half.
For some reason, Resistance will always be my favorite... I don't know why, but it just is. |
