Also, don't feel guilty about buying anything.
Remember, CCP had the good faith to refund us AUR for BPOs and other such things in the past.
So long, as we make a thread and ask some honest questions about getting our value's worth; I'm confident that moving to Legion, they will be willing to negotiate and compensate us in that game some how, despite being under no obligation to.

LOL..
Here's me waiting to buy some decent BPO's as the current ones are a gimmick
'Sever' Old suits re-skinned and over priced .... I'll keep my 'Dragonflies' thanks
Then 'Quafe' Assaults understandable, lots of fanboi's are into that kind of thing
*Even though they look like CCP tweaked the textures until THAT happened*
Now 'Quafe' Scouts.. damn you CCP... damn you for this
I have 2 Scouts (Amarr/Min) that I would like BPO's for, just not shiny pink BPO's
I know your playerbases money is a nice addition, but really ???
We get screwed repeatedly since 'Oh, Hey guys you are going to love what we done for FF'
*Which turned out to be killing the game we invested in, and restarting development*
How mush AUR do you intend on milking via releasing a 'pretty' BPO every week ???
When by the current changes (Sever/Quafe/RedMandos) it's clear you can do it quickly
And by M-I/G-I Assault shows you can add new suits to that list easily enough...
Why does your marketing team hate the DUST514 playerbase ??

If only CCP had known earlier that turning every dropsuit purple pink was the secret to making money. The weapons are next in presume?
If that raider scout skin is real though...

Seems like I jumped the gun on Quafe A.Assault. I just didn't expect this so soon. Quafe A.Scout here I come!
That said I don't regret my Quafe A.Assault purchase one bit.
Now to wait for Quafe Sentinel, Commando, and Logi. |

They are grand.. but the situation is not -
- We are removing BPO's as they 'break' our economy
to have that turn around to
- We are selling vanity gear because the 'economy' is being shut down anyway and we like money
The BPO suits are good, but releasing them piece by piece to milk the players is wrong
Especially considering they kept us out of contact and began shutting the game down - FF
I'm a dedicated DUST gamer, but releasing PINK suits while several features are ignored is..
Very CCP I suppose :/

Dust 514 will not have a player market, therefore, the idea of selling BPOs becomes less of an issue. Legion (if it becomes a thing) will have a player market, but only if Dust 514 can sustain a playerbase and remain profitable... CCP is making a calculated risk by continuing to sell BPOs, but its either increase profits or Dust 514/Legion dies off.
Also, we have been asking for some kind of customizible paint job system for a while now. Dust's clientside update capabilities won't allow for the addition of such a system now (hell, they JUST figured that **** out in Eve Online...) so selling BPOs is the next best thing CCP can do right now.

I'm a dedicated DUST gamer, but releasing PINK suits while several features are ignored. Not sure if you have heard, but 1.9 is locked down and in final QA as we speak. That's a client-side update... something we were told might never happen. How do you think they are funding the labor hours for such an endeavor, selling candy bars door to door? If the 'Quafe' dropsuits sell well, if they grow the playerbase, we could even see a 1.10 update.
TL;DR - You personally may feel like the 'Quafe dropsuits are a waste of time, but they are funding the development of the features that you DON'T think are a waste of time.

Yes, exactly what Dust needed: more scouts.
Pink glowy scouts are exactly what we need, I think they should emit a glow while cloaked, then it would be perfect! |

As with most your posts you make good points, and I'm well aware of the situation
1.9 is a great change of pace, though players have the right to remain skeptical
- Fingers crossed on new maps (introducing a map that was cancelled due to lag issues)
- NPC Market, an awesome feature, long overdue but with it's timing of release I can't help
but feel that they want to burn off Dust assets to clear inventories for Legion.
I blame Boba's fetta (DMG Merc) He got back from a stint of inactivity and I expected joy when informing
him of the updates, but could not argue with his view that it's a bad they killed off the playerbase to
release overdue features without warning so much later, when the players have mostly moved on.
I fully agree CCP should do what they can to bring in revenue but just not happy with how it's being done.
If CCP were not keeping everything behind closed doors I could be much happier with the current game
Though Vanity suits/No attempts at NPE yet selling new AUR starter fits/surprise updates ...
Does not show me that they have learned from past mistakes and more may be incoming SOONtm

Legit, so let me provide some additional information as I am able.
TheD1CK wrote:- Fingers crossed on new maps (introducing a map that was cancelled due to lag issues)
There are performance increases coming as well so this concern has been thought of and while I'm not sitting over the shoulder for QA watching what they do I lean towards thinking this is something they'll check for.

I have literally heard not a word about any thought process of this kind (prior to your post here).
To the best of my understanding it is present simply because the Current/New Dust dev team is well aware of now desired this is as a feature so when the possibility of a 1.9 patch arose they moved it to high on the list.

NPE needs more work, and is actively being looked at and no question that things have been handled badly in the past (especially Fan Fest) but to say "it's bad that they..." in this context is also a bit inaccurate because the literal "they" in question (corporate name aside) is no longer the same.
Does the work from CCP Rattati and the current Dust team delver on every promise the guys before them made? No, at least not yet.
Would it have been better if this work was done at release, or even during beta? Of course, no question.
But when you look at the increased levels of interaction with the community from CCP Rattati & CCP LogiBro I think it is more than fair to say there is evidence of a change in paradigm. Would I like more? Yeah, I love communication and vigorously advocate it. And will I feel better about all of it the longer it goes on? Yes again 
But lets be real here, the current team is doing a bang up job with what they were handed, they were able to fight for a patch to the game when 'no one' expected one and meanwhile they are doing their best to deliver long requested elements and features (not all of them yet true, and some are a bit of a work around - BPOs for example aren't a paint kit, but they are massively easier to add/release than coding an entirely new system into the game would be).
So remaining skeptical isn't unreasonable, but - and this is key - Dust moves forward or stalls out based on what happens in game. To wrap up I'll quote myself from elsewhere.

History has given us plenty of reasons to cut our losses, and I do not blame anyone who chooses to do so.
But for my money at least, CCP Ratattti has given enough reason for me not to do so (the guy is so dedicated that he has worked weekends on top of the normal hours). I've seen Dev interaction during their vacations (LogiBro is a wizard)
and while neither they nor anyone else can promise a certainty about the future I am willing to risk it because I know, win lose or draw, that those guys are giving their best.
I have made my personal choice to take the risk and give Ratattti et al their shot.
What each individual chooses for themselves is entirely their own call (and that is as it should be).
I can't promise outcomes (again, life is like that), only effort, but for what it''s worth, the effort is there in spades.
Cheers,
Cross
