I mean, WarBarges as just a menu item for giving yourself more solo boosts? I thought maybe we might be seeing them as an asset used for PC.
Weren't these things supposed to be the size of Orcas and hold an entire Corporation? Now they're just a single-person ship?
For the first Expansion of this game, this feels a bit meh.

I don't know. It's not an epic expansion from a 200+ man dev team. But I think this is a small step in the right direction as it adds another way to progress your character and another thing to customize. Overall, im content with the update (really, still shocked that this game is still getting updated at all).
Until CCP starts hiring more people for Dust, i'd keep expectations mild. |

Unless you like to spend AUR on strong boxes there isn't anything exiting here..
I like how improved visuals has nothing to do with "fixed performance issues" let's add green, red and purple glow to everything and call it improved or new... rofl
Basically CCP took our 1994 ford and put $20 pinstripes and $30 do-it-yourself tinted windows on it then sell it to us as new.. |

Warbarges as present in 1.0 are kinda the base of the platform to build on. I'd say Warlords as an expansion is the sum of it's releases. There is a lot more coming. The PC stuff is important to take our time with because as the feedback area has shown, it's a contentious topic that needs time to collect feedback and get it right. There's some exciting crud coming.

To me, anything X 1.0 should be game changing and awesome new stuff, not just some goofy reskins of old stuff and the addition of a new thing that gives you bonuses in matches, but that you will never see in matches. This is basically just Uprising 1.11.
Stuff....?

Also, Kevall was saying something about MCCs being able to fit in there, but those are supposed to be 200 meters long based on the description of them in their DevBlog. I realize the placeholders we have no are smaller because of our small map size, but does this now mean the placeholder size is the final size?
Like I said in that other thread, it feels like this game is continually decreasing in size and scope, and that's very disappointing.

CCP, I'm going to triple-dog-dare you right now to release a feature in the Q2 patch that adds new content and has NO AURUM component whatsoever. You up to the challenge?

I'm not underwhelmed. I think that a lot of this stuff is really cool. With how small the Dev team is I'm content and there is more coming next month. I'm still playing this game.

For the first Expansion of this game, this feels a bit meh. The warbarge's size has been reimagined as something closer to an Eve destroyer or small cruiser, if I can recall. These are just personal warbarges; they contain one merc's holdings and quarters. I believe the corp floatilla will be the beast we have seen in prior images.
As for Warlords 1.0 overall, well, the CCP Shanghai dev team isn't exactly bursting with personnel at this point. If we had hundreds of devs then yeah, I'd be a bit pissed. The expansion's content is accurately proportionate to the size of it's dev team at the moment.
Here's hoping by the time the best expansion comes out CCP will have hired a couple more devs...
Also, never ever assume CCP will release an expansion without some monetization. They are actively trying to find ways of making money by every means necessary. That's fine, so long as nothing is P2W.
CCP flirts with P2W constantly, but they have yet to put out for him.

Granted, but how much have they charged for this "DLC"? nothing. Two year and counting and all you had to pay for this game was your damn time and they are still adding stuff. I think its awesome to see. O7

1. Infantry whine anyways
2. Rattati isnt even going to give adv/pro vehicles extra slots so it still will be 3/2 layout and imagine a current basic gunnlogi with 2 hardeners and an extender all complex and whatever in the lows - That will be classed as proto in the future |

Seems like the warbarge might turn to a social hub given a few patches. This alone makes me happy. Other than that, the Roden and Quafe items make me feel special inside. While they are not new things, just repaints, I'm a sucker for kicking ass and looking good doing it... or showing off in the warbarge. |

So we are getting more fluff added onto the game with still the COre issues to why this game is struggling not being dealt with?

The content additions and quality of life improvements are awesome... But it will all be wasted by the pure utter player rage that happens on a minute basis when a player actually tries to play your game with any consistency...

Everyone listen to Brother Mobius. You get what you ask for. If we are easily satisfied CCP will begin to slack off. Thats why its better to ask for great things so you can be disappointed by getting good things. If you say mediocre stuff will satisfy you then be ready for less, as its less than mediocre= crap that you will be getting.

I dont know where mobius is getting his size information from; the War Barge has always been a small capital ship class vessel. According to Kaval's mocking up its estimated to be about 800 meters long; a battleship would rival its size.

It's impressive how much they've been able to accomplish with such limited resources.
Having said that, it does feel like the game is moving tangental to where it should be instead of progressing forward. I personally feel all of the effort that went into designing a crafting system for DUST was wasted. EVE has the richest virtual economy of any game ever made. Instead of working towards integrating into that, we now have hundreds? of developer hours squandered building a very shallow and uninteresting crafting system. I personally don't think crafting fits well in an FPS--especially with so many important pieces missing from gameplay: 1. Full racial parity in vehicles, turrets, and heavy weapons 2. pilot suits 3. vehicle capacitors and a rich ewar system like EVE (e.g. webs, neuts, target painters, tracking disruptors, etc.) 4. equipment like shield reppers, and modules like resistance plating. 5. an awesome NPE
It would have made more sense to work on these than building a crafting system. We've been told that CCP doesn't have the resources to do any of this, but then apparently they do have the resources to build an entire crafting/warbarge mechanic. I get that they need to monetize DUST or the servers get switched off, but I honestly think they'll get more money if they radically improve the NPE, focus on making battles rich and engaging, and then possibly do some small-scale marketing (via blogs and review sites).
I"m not opposed to the content itself, but the prioritization is really ridiculous. I'm confident that I could easily list 100 things that would be much more important to the game than adding this stuff.
Best PvE idea ever!

You should be happy that this is happening. When I woke up early today I was WOW.
I'm glad PC 2.0 is coming >:D
I remember making a thread 7 months ago about PC 2.0 and many of the idiots said " Oh don't expect that soon" Well 7 months later... Now Its happening >:D

Not all underwhelmed.
Perhaps not as huge an overhaul as Chromosome --> Uprising 1.0, but it is as big and sexy as any update we've seen since. Considering the fact that we were life support not that long ago, I'm nothing short of excited. And we've only seen the very start of it.
Further, Warlords will have Uprising beat in that it'll lack that certain "one suit, one gun" feel Uprising left us with clear through it's sixth update, when we got pick from four Fine Rifles rather than one.

I haven't expected much out of CCP for a while so I'm not underwhelmed by Warlords.
I will admit it has a few nice things in it people have been asking for, for a while now. Not getting stuck in a battle that's about to end is something I'm particularly looking forward to. Though I suspect that it'll still put you in matches that are already decided but not having to worry about loading up to the EoM screen would be nice.

You saved me some time.
Truth be told, matchmaking and performance have always been at the very bottom of CCP's priority list.
No, I don't care about anyone who says I can't know that because I don't work there, I'm saying that based on their track record, which is pretty ****-poor.
No matter how much content and shiny stuff the game gets added to it, it won't do anything about how you keep forcing monetization into EVERYTHING, and about how the matchmaking and framerate are both terrible. Why would I want to keep playing a game where I consistently get put up against entire teams of top-tier players because the matchmaker can't put an equal number of squads on each team, and the game won't even hold 20 frames per second in a fight?

PC changes will likely be in the next release, as they're still handling player feedback on them.
The tanks are a hotfixable thing, and were not intended for Warlords 1.0, but rather a hotfix. I am guessing the hotfix may be before Warlords 1.1, but we haven't talked timing with CCP on that.

I think we need to put things into context.
At FF 14, Rouge f*cked us over. We thought the game was dead, and had no idea what to expect from the future. Legion wasn't even "Green Lit," so even the PC gamers couldn't look forward to it.
Then along comes Rattati, making no promises, but arranging the numbers so that the weapons and dropsuits gradually become more and more balanced. We are told not to expect patches, and nothing was ever promised (hence the reason smart people said not to expect anything, contrary to what was said previously in the thread regarding those people).
Then we got 1.9, and 1.10.
Wow.
Suddenly we were getting real updates again! They weren't huge, and nothing massive was really added, but they were certainly larger changes than the hotfixes.
And now we are talking about content like warbarges and PC 2.0 that we thought were pipe dreams just a few months ago.
The content itself might not be huge an significant, but the fact we are here at all is.
I find lots of things that anger me about the game, and have played only once in 3 months or so because of it, but even I can acknowledge and be grateful that positive changes are occurring.

Its how you go about saying things that is making you so easily ignorable; I am a bit sick and tired of asking what's up and you and like minded individuals splurge and buffet on your own angst in such an unhealthy manner its to the point of irrationality.
Nobody is forcing you into a hynox level relationship with your lock boxes and yet you are consistently letting it dominate your life like a woton mistress and you make it seem that those highly ignorable lock boxes are controlling every aspect of your life.
Reasoning with you on the subject is also a lost cause as the rate of sensible to irrationality hits warp ten every time you open your mouth.
and just to make it clear
Are Keys too expensive? Likely; I feel they are very bad value
Are Box rewards a bit too lame? At times yes then again there are other kinds of mistakes in the boxes that are not supposed to be in there. Talk nice and maybe I can work something out better.
Is it raining boxes? Definitely; more so than I liked too and there is no one in the community that would disagree
Is that notification annoying More so than my empty cosmetic fire brand fitting I have.
Where my keys at yo? Phase 2 Barge will generate keys daily to help alleviate some of this; also the mission system is integral part to frustration should also be looked at as well and is already in the process.
When will something be done about it? Not in warlords 1.0 because like any feature in this game knee jerk reactions can be a bad thing. Warlords 1.1 is probably the earliest we can try to sort something out CCP Rattati willing.
Complain more Accomplishes nothing more than quickly setting you to a temporary block; I like music but not something repeated 100 times in a row I am not that kind of audiophile.
Is Dust 514 Pay to Win? I don't see the point in winning the war barge race; it is no different than trying to win the SP tree race. You are likely one day going to get to a point on the war barge where upgrades are no longer exciting for you because the benefits they provide are no longer as applicable. http://hotmeme.net/media/i/e/3/uZS-when-everyone-s-special-no-one-is-special.jpg Would say.
Whaaa Rattati is stealin my monies Seriously; this game's fiscal successes determines everything that happens from now on. Your continued bewilderment that the lights are still on defies logic.
Whaa everythin costs monies to me I am pretty sure everyone whose been buying boosters and gear and keys even and jara have help fund that amarr damned arse annoying bug of vehicle sinking in the newer sockets and turning the damn restock to back on; and testing and exploring out what sort of bonuses we can just apply in general overall that could potentially be used elsewhere such as suits. Best part is; you will never has to spend another dime on those ever again. Rattati's hand countable resources are very limited and so far they have been well spent.
CCP Rattati is making this game pay to play! Far from; there is no deploy limitations you can pub and pug all day long without ever spending a dime outside of your internet connection and electricity. This game is more akin to war frame's model than many other notoriously bad pay to play games especially those that EA puts out. As a player who has sampled a large amount of Free to play games of all the flavors Dust 514 ranks FAR away from Pay to play or pay to win.
Also as long as you spout your support for Pay to PLAY! systems (an equivalency in this game would be; buying reloads of ammo, new clones, battle contracts to participate in fighting when you are capped to very few of each a day) I see no healthy grounds for you to declare you are able to make a valid argument against pay to win. Period.
Anyone else with concerns outside of the outlined above let me know but I am pretty sure this covers
I dunno what pay to win/play looks like? 1. instant game play power that cannot be obtained without real money; Gold Ammo from world of tanks. 2. Infinite level cap with purchasable levels 3. Max level on 00:00 time into the game. 4. Your play time is limited to 15 minutes; buy more to play more or wait 24 hours.
and finally the concern in your post
Why isn't CCP spending money on performance? 1. It's a thankless endeavour; nobody thanks you for it even more oddly people do not spend more money if this improves. There is really no way to anyways; people who was spending money before at 15 fps are still going to at 19 fps after, those who have yet to spend a dime are likely to never spend a dime. 2. Age old knowledge accepts that fixing and correcting things only helps retain veterans which is by in large and far a constantly losing fight; you are always going to be losing players and customers month to month; This is the truth of all mmos. 3. Age old knowledge also accepts that new features helps retain newer players for much longer because they're enabled into experience more. 4. Performance increases are stated to be amongst the most expensive ticket items in any game; the only one that outpaces this is generally graphics. They typically require very special types of coders who are generally very expensive and the work is intensive to squeeze every bit of performance out using less. The larger studios have access to that and have experience doing it. Why is dust 514's performance so poor? I have no idea; it could be our fitting system; it could be the maps; could be the skills; could be your inventory could be a crap tonn of things but we wont find out until effort is spent on it. 5. And yes CCP is working towards improving performance still. The work is long hard and tedious.

And lastly as others said in this thread.
CCP Rattati is all but one man. What I wouldn't give for a clone of him. Of course Warlords is not going to stack against Chromosome/Uprising 1.0; thats like asking for 3 Rattati (Rattatium? Rattaties?) at least.
The plural is Rattati

Well, to be honest, 7 months ago we just got started with CCP Rattati and many people including me didn't have that much hope. Looking back, it seems Rattati is the right choice for Dust development.

This thread makes my freaggin head hurt.
Maybe CCP Rattati needs to release a dev-blog on the amount of people actually working on Dust 514 right now to put kittens into perspective for the people who think that they're capable of shelling out massive updates.
I mean, if you ask me, that small team alone has already shelled out more content in the past three builds than 'The Dark Below' expansion for Destiny, but maybe I'm crazy.

Maybe CCP Rattati needs to release a dev-blog on the amount of people actually working on Dust 514 right now to put kittens into perspective for the people who think that they're capable of shelling out massive updates.
I mean we can infer strongly that its only 5 people because of the new officer suits but kittengod Ratatti, please?

Considering that some of the officer dropsuits are named after a team of devs, could even be less than that xD

Weren't these things supposed to be the size of Orcas and hold an entire Corporation? Now they're just a single-person ship?
For the first Expansion of this game, this feels a bit meh.
Considering several wondrous bug fixes it has, hell no. If Warlords was just the warbarges, then I might be a wee disappointed, but personally they sound interesting (I just hope to god they are close to being balanced on release)...
... But there were three particular bug fixes which will improve quality-of-life in the game immensely, MCRUs will actually be selectable, no more wasting time loading into an almost-finished-match or even worse a victory screen...
... Best of all...
... GOD DAMN VEHICLES WILL STOP TELEPORTING A METER UPON HITTING THE SELECT SCREEN THUS FIREBALLING AGAINST THE NEAREST OBJECT OR FALLING THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE MAP!
Oh how much bloody damned isk I've lost through the entire history of dust that way...
So yeah, I'm ridiculously happy that these issues have been fixed, these are very important quality of life fixes imo.
Add in the rest of the stuff and I'm pretty happy.
Second best update yet imo.

Pretty much. Foxfour is primarily Eve Online, Wolfman is primarily Project Legion. Logicloop left as well. Nullarbor is back on Eve.

Bearing in mind that Blam was crazy and assumed balance came from implementing functionless features because they sounded cool. Remnant and Wolfman are both producers, not game designers. Rattati thinks like an Engineer, so it works out.
There's no real set "criteria" for what makes a good game designer, you either have it or you don't. One thing is for certain though: Having a developer be both a producer -and- a game designer doesn't work very well, based on previous experience with Uprising builds >_>;;;

Not underwhelmed in the least.
This small team of developers is putting out a release every month (excluding the Christmas break) since September. Releases include more than simply coding (testing, building the deployment package, QA), This team is putting out new features and fixes at a great pace.
Keep up the good work CCP. Rattati, thank your team for us at tomorrow's scrum. |

CPM are on the in-game credits, as well (then again, so are all the employees that got laid off last year and prior).
And yeah.. They do feed us buuuut some of those CPM guys like to feed kitten flavored chocolate.. Gotta be careful who you accept treats from, if any.

Go talk to CCP and tell them to drop the warbarges until it is a corporate ship used to transport mercs in Eve where one of our pilots controls them. Then tell them to scrap the Free-to-play model and port in to Legion and put the characters on the same subscription model as Eve. Oh and by-the-way, this sucks.

For people trying to guess dev numbers from named suits, bear in mind that there have always been a number of devs in Shanghai that have never posted on the forums, and hence who have names that are not public, hence do not have named suits. And of course, as other players pointed out, some named suits may be named after devs no longer working on DUST as well. Unfortunately, suits will not give you any realistic answer about the size of the dev team.

Quote:I think we need to put things into context.
At FF 14, Rouge f*cked us over. We thought the game was dead, and had no idea what to expect from the future. Legion wasn't even "Green Lit," so even the PC gamers couldn't look forward to it.
Then along comes Rattati, making no promises, but arranging the numbers so that the weapons and dropsuits gradually become more and more balanced. We are told not to expect patches, and nothing was ever promised (hence the reason smart people said not to expect anything, contrary to what was said previously in the thread regarding those people).
Then we got 1.9, and 1.10.
Wow.
Suddenly we were getting real updates again! They weren't huge, and nothing massive was really added, but they were certainly larger changes than the hotfixes.
And now we are talking about content like warbarges and PC 2.0 that we thought were pipe dreams just a few months ago.
The content itself might not be huge an significant, but the fact we are here at all is.
I find lots of things that anger me about the game, and have played only once in 3 months or so because of it, but even I can acknowledge and be grateful that positive changes are occurring.
Heck, to put it into even more context,
Alot of us thought those were pipe dreams back before Dust was officially put on indefinite hold no updates status.
The fact that Rattati is making more meaningful updates with a smaller team than his predecessor speaks volumes to me. I for one, am happy with the updates we have gotten.
And I think it's important to mention the meaningful updates again. How many times did we wait several months to get a tweak to weapons or suits, then have to wait another couple of months for another tweak, then another tweak months down the road. Then we get smacked with, "we're so busy making tweaks we can't work on updates" Have we seen Rattati do this? Nope. What we see is Rattati asking players for help in balancing things, let's us know he's working on it, we get our hotfix/balance done, maybe a minor tweak, and a "Oh and by the way, 1.9/1.10 is coming out next week FYI surprise!"
Honestly? I'd love to see Rattati in control of Legion. |

By the use of "our" there, I did mean CCP, the CPM, and the playerbase as a sum whole feedback and revision process. Planetary Conquest revamp work cannot be done in a vacuum by CCP. It was important for CCP to get the plan out the door and for players to have a lot of time to make and push changes to it.

I may not like you, but I at least understand the ****** position of being blamed for everything because you aren't authorized to tell us anything about what CCP is actually doing, thus we honestly have no measure of your competence.
That being said, if CCP wants this game to be doing more than riding on the occasional AURUM purchases of a group of angry bittervets, they need to really step up the pace on content.
I will also say that the Project Legion situation has been hanging up in the air for far too long. You and your fellow CPM members would be well served to hound CCP about telling us SOMETHING about what the Shanghai division is working on.
Marketing Team be damned. I think we're all heavily invested enough in this to deserve at least a few tiny scraps of info.

Actually OP I thought that DUST 514 was dead last fanfest and as such have been eagerly anticipating Legion.
I could be wrong but it looks as if Legion is either not a 'thing' any more or is still a very long way away if it ever does materialise. So personally I am petty happy with what CCP are doing.
Yes its only minor stuff but there are a few good fixes in there such as "not being put in battles about to end". As a Vet player, this is a huge thing it really is.
So overall I am actually looking forwards to trying out Warlords in Feb. I am still very very confused however with what is going on in CCP`s minds about DUST / Legion.
I am also surprised that they are not doing much of a presentation for either DUST or Legion at this years fanfest. (Considering the ongoing DUST development)

I was thinking the same thing after my hype calmed down after not seeing an update after so long.We're get stuff that gives us stuff we already have(ISK,SP ect) and gear that's under a different color/name which is nice if your a collector but where's the beef?
Unless we can invade someone's warbarge in first-person and fight it out in there or get a new mode that works, I cant see any new players coming to stay and play for long before going off to do other games when they are already invested in those, it just isn't likely.The fact that CCP is giving all this SP bonus stuff for new players just screams how how flawed the game actually is for new players to get into because of the SP slope they need to climb.
Bottom line: CCP you cant fix somethings by just throwing ISK and SP at it. |

Well, considering you can't invade a warbarge that isn't there, this is a step in the right direction.
Dust can have a lot going for it once it gives vets a place to play other than proto stomping in pubs, and improving upon the NPE.
That doesn't mean its a certainty or even a probability it will be around for some time to come, as long as they make improvements they give themselves room to do something more in the future.

To example this issue:
Blind Justice is perfect. Blind Justice is flawed. and I am complaining about it. Alleviate my concerns.
And lastly as others said in this thread.
CCP Rattati is all but one man. What I wouldn't give for a clone of him. Of course Warlords is not going to stack against Chromosome/Uprising 1.0; thats like asking for 3 Rattati (Rattatium? Rattaties?) at least. The plural is Rattati
Proof that Ratatti is a moiety of multiple entities who traveled back in time prior to the closing of the gate to train earthen people to become immortals soldiers, as the genetic code of the population of eve is to warped to withstand the ancient immortal soldier technology.

Underwhelmed by the fact that there's not a single fix mentioning game performance or hit detection. These issues are still core issues to the game and the main reason I don't play.
I'll drop in to see if the game feels any different, but I doubt it will. Just seems like they're adding more spreadsheets whilst going "Look at all the new content!"
Hardly. The warbarge thing is going to (barely) help new players and just another spreadsheet to the rest of us, the BPO and Aurum dropsuit stuff is more fluff for people to buy. The core of the game is still the same laggy mess. No new game modes, no new gameplay, no new maps or even fixes to awful lag in existing maps, nothing about the core game is changing. We get a new screen that says "Here's some free ISK, SP, and some other marginally useful crap, now go buy more Aurum!".
CCP, plee. If framerates were consistently 30+ this game would be amazing. Sadly, it's not. Until then, the same issues will plague the game. You'll never succeed to a broader market if the core of the game still feels like crap. I'm sure you have your whales (note: financial whales) sustaining you with Aurum purchases, but the vast majority of players still complain about lag, performance, hit detection, shoddy movement, and the like.

Stop asking me things you know I cannot answer.
Stop asking me things you know I don't have the answer for.
And finally I would greatly appreciate if people used less flourish in their concerns addressed because when I ask back "what is wrong?" The answers I get back I translate most of those responses to "I DON'T KNOW" and that is by far and large more frustrating.
To example this issue:
Blind Justice is perfect. Blind Justice is flawed. and I am complaining about it. Alleviate my concerns.
And lastly as others said in this thread.
CCP Rattati is all but one man. What I wouldn't give for a clone of him. Of course Warlords is not going to stack against Chromosome/Uprising 1.0; thats like asking for 3 Rattati (Rattatium? Rattaties?) at least.
Hey IWS........ ppfffff..... giggle...... where's the "Amarr-be-damned" things?

Weren't these things supposed to be the size of Orcas and hold an entire Corporation? Now they're just a single-person ship?
For the first Expansion of this game, this feels a bit meh. Yep.

Having said that, it does feel like the game is moving tangental to where it should be instead of progressing forward. I personally feel all of the effort that went into designing a crafting system for DUST was wasted. EVE has the richest virtual economy of any game ever made. Instead of working towards integrating into that, we now have hundreds? of developer hours squandered building a very shallow and uninteresting crafting system. I personally don't think crafting fits well in an FPS--especially with so many important pieces missing from gameplay: 1. Full racial parity in vehicles, turrets, and heavy weapons 2. pilot suits 3. vehicle capacitors and a rich ewar system like EVE (e.g. webs, neuts, target painters, tracking disruptors, etc.) 4. equipment like shield reppers, and modules like resistance plating. 5. an awesome NPE
It would have made more sense to work on these than building a crafting system. We've been told that CCP doesn't have the resources to do any of this, but then apparently they do have the resources to build an entire crafting/warbarge mechanic. I get that they need to monetize DUST or the servers get switched off, but I honestly think they'll get more money if they radically improve the NPE, focus on making battles rich and engaging, and then possibly do some small-scale marketing (via blogs and review sites/youtubers).
I"m not opposed to the content itself, but the prioritization is really ridiculous. I'm confident that I could easily list 100 things that would be much more important to the game than adding this stuff.
+1 Ccp should trust that players would be interested in investing time/money into the game if they flushed out some old, but good ideas. As for advertising their game, dust only has 1 youtube video on ccp's channel from 2013 and they got rid of saberwing who was going to make video content from the shanghai studio. Fanfest is only going to have a round table for dust/legion so I just feel like ccp is simply too ashamed to even get people excited about what's to come.

Rattati and his team are putting a lot of hard work into the updates and it is appreciated I'm sure...
But, warlords does not seem like the next major build of Dust 514. It is the same thing as Uprising. It looks just like a regular update patch/hotfix for Uprising (1.11 if you will?).
Adding more content and re-working existing aspects of the game is all well and good. But what this game needs is some serious work on its basic nuts-and-bolts mechanics.
Fix stuff! Make it perform better, clean up the buggy code, work on the gameplay mechanics. That kind of stuff won't add any shiny new bells and whistles like the recent updates, but the game will be immeasurably and objectively better for it.
Having said that, I haven't played in 4-5 months (PS3 broke). But I want to!

Not all underwhelmed. Perhaps not as huge an overhaul as Chromosome --> Uprising 1.0, but it is as big and sexy as any update we've seen since. Considering the fact that we were life support not that long ago, I'm nothing short of excited. And we've only seen the very start of it. Further, Warlords will have Uprising beat in that it'll lack that certain "one suit, one gun" feel Uprising left us with clear through it's sixth update, when we got pick from four Fine Rifles rather than one. Warlords is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Uprising is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. E3 is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Codex is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Chromosome is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Uprising is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Edit Replication is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. Dark Below is entirely eye-candy and more paid content with no improvement to any of the gameplay mechanics that actually matter. :P
You know, you're actually right. I wonder if you were going for irony.
KDR matchmaking would patch all the patches into pure patchitudity.

I assume it's based on the limitations of his small team.

The PC stuff is important to take our time with because as the feedback area has shown, it's a contentious topic that needs time to collect feedback and get it right. There's some exciting crud coming.
To be honest with you anything you say right now just comes off as complete bullshit. |
