My last post seemed to ignite some glorious rage from a section of this community that frankly i can bet smell of stale pizza crusts and as soon as they saw my post on the actual forums, erupted in a cloud of Cheeto dust to spam hate back at me. (Rattati included heh)
So let me perhaps say something nice about this game and see how many bell-ends it takes to think they can troll the mastertroll.
"Dusts run and gun game is the best around."
Ill let that sink in a minute. Been playing Destiny and much like a very enjoyable nights entertainment with a operative of a 'certain trade' its really quite a fulfilling experience until it comes to the 'cash in' hour.
Destiny has this really hollow and bland feeling that once identified and endured for some time becomes a crescendo of excrement and gin soaked puss that streams continually towards my open mouth. Destiny just has no real weight to any of the game other than grind grind grind.
"hang on Uncle, are you saying Destiny isn't very good?"
Well yes it is, for about 20 hours then it goes downhill faster than a fat guy on his way to Taco Bell 'in the dip'. destiny has very little replayability when compared to Dust- dare i even say Dust has almost a 'mature' feeling to it when comparing mechanics and game play (solid guns, solid mechanics, weight, loss etc)
Im sure many of you having got to this point are about to launch into a clever and im sure well spelled reply that will summerise how awesome dust is compared to destiny and that since i am also making noise in this area, it somehow vindicates you to think that you have been right all along about Dust, making you want to climb (or rather wheeze) to the nearest hilll to shout about this.
Well no - Dust is still terrible as well, just less terrible than Destiny PVP
Dust still has so many issues, none of which really fall into the realm of 'balancing' and really sit like a big flabby old sheep dog with fleas right on your nice new sofa of awesome - Dust is still missing any real mechanics that make us more than just prisoners, sent into the yard to fight each other like 'Bubba from E-wing' and then hoicked back into the cell after the pre alloted time of 15 mins is up.
Very few game modes, very few mechanics that are fresh and new, same old tactics of 'climb to high point, drop spawn pad, forgegun everything' Dust really has personal freshness problems and its hard to see how on earth we can de-louse this tramp without also taking great big chunks of skin with it.
Where am i going with all this? to be honest im not even sure myself - while playing Destiny, i realised i was missing my old flea ridden sheepdog of Dust 514 and upon playing some more of Hotfail Delta see alot of great changes that certainly make things more fun.
I just wish i could see a couple (hell even 1) change that wasnt balancing and was more aimed at modes of play......free for all really that hard to do Rattati? (serious question)
Uncle - (also im playing all weekend, come shoot me if you can (which you cant as you suck)) |

Not sure how you can say this after making thousands of videos on it. Sure, it's getting stale, but come on i could never say it's terrible
Im a sucker for punishment......its why i post drunk on the forums
(i also think of Dust 514 as one of my children, not a favorite one, just one that i beat form time to time and smells of wee) |

Its rare i return to the 'scene of the crime' on the forums but today i will.....
The subtext of the OP was really to cite that Dust 514 is still a really good game - the feeling you get as you run across that map with your weapons primed, its pretty sexy and so far (in my experience) hard to beat for its weight and survival context.
The whole ADS thing isnt really much of a problem - no idea why people think i was white knighting for a fit i use one time in a hundred perhaps.
Id like to propose that the game needs less balancing and the crack team of great minds at CCP (and Rattati oooooooooooooooh snap see what i did there?) should look at getting some changes through to enlarge the scope, not enrich it.
Cmon CCP - show us your qualities *gauntlet dropped* |
