DUST Search - "Thank you CCP Rattati" (Official Thread)

Don't separate the two though. Rouge and Rattati are essentially the same entity; CCP.

Both Rouge and Rattati have made very simple mistakes that look extremely bad. Rouge didn't realize the roundtable was not going to be streamed, which is why the DUST 514 keynote was 26 minutes long and ended with "we can continue this discussion at the roundtable." To everyone there, they heard the "we are going to transfer SP and everything applicable." To those that bought an HD steam (*waves*), we sat there being happy that DUST might actually be something on a different medium but than were wondering "WHAT ABOUT MY STUFF?!"

Rattati thought that boosters only increased the rate at which you got SP. They were going to allow Triple Stack and he figured "let's triple the cap so it levels out." Everyone in the CPM thought he was fine with going from 761,600 or 1,142,400 with a 50% booster to 3,000,000 or 7,500,000 million with 3 boosters a month. This was not intended and created quite the interesting bit when the guy running DUST doesn't know how the most basic of basic things worked.

Is Rattati doing a nice job? I think so; he certainly is active on Twitter and the forums. But to put all of the success on him when it was the entire entity of CCP doing it and completely separate the failures that CCP has had is a bit off in my book.

Every Dust mercenary felt it was the end, the Apocalypse. But then, 11 days later CCP Rouge made a smart move:link, he presented CCP Rattati to us and put him in charge of Dust. Here is the developer spotlight Snorri +Çrnason. Were you wondering why he loves datas and numbers so much? "I have a MasterGÇÿs degree in Industrial Engineering with a focus on Applied Statistics." This guy knows what he is doing when he uses numbers! Now, after the 'Rouge weddings' we were told we wouldnt have had any new patch for Dust. A lot of players started biomassing or leaving the game, a lot of corporations were disbanded. Then CCP Rattati made his move... Since that may, after 10 months, we have had: 5 Hotfixes 3 new patches 2 Events 1 Trelloboard a plan Thousands of posts from CCP Rattati on the forum (1000 since 31-10-2013) What was added/modified? Hotfix Alpha: Armor tanking was modified to decrease brick tanking , Scout bonuses were modified , Cloak was nerfed, CR nerfed and AR buffed, projectiles slowdown effect was removed, PC passive isk farming was removed, Bolt and Ion pistols Fixed, PLC and AV nades buffed. Hotfix Bravo: Work to improve NPE, Work on HAV turrets, work on Rifles ranges between tiers, removed vehicles from Ambush, shield tanking got buffed. Hotfix Charlie: Buff to Assaults, sentinels pg/cpu got nerfed, HMG changes, FW Payments increase, changes to blaster turrets, scouts ewar, some modules and OBs, buff to NK, more hp for installations, Vehicle recall Timer increased. Hotfix Delta: NPE, great work on sidearms, rifles, snipers, FGs and swarm launchers, buff to shield tanking, NK optimization skill, nanite Injector repair shields, buff to minmatars Ehp, buff to ADS and changes to some modules. Uprising 1.9: New maps, new sockets, new map's moods, Loyalty Ranks, market agent and sell to vendor, buyable respec, changes to sp gainer per wp, Fix of annoying bugs, changes to cloak and scans, changes to nanite injectors. The introduction of the Apex Series. Uprising 1.10: Daily missions, strongboxes and Keys, new OBs, changes to passive scan, bandwith and other great changes to the gameplay. Warlord 1.0 Warbarge,new quafe, Faction and officer gear, changes to User experience. Hotfix Echo: Changes to starter loadouts and Basic medium frames, changes to hmg, PLC and ASCR, complete rework of HAV, changes to LAV, myofibril stimulants, equipment changes. TLDR: look at what CCP Rattati has done in 10 months! After we were told the development of Dust wasnt going on. CCP Rattati has done and is doing miracles with what he has. Sometime we dont agree with him but we have to appreciate his work and the great communocation he has with us. CCP Rattati is the best thing that happened to Dust. Thank you CCP Rattati. PS: if you agree, post some love for Rattati, too many times we see hate posts about him. One of the few assaults you'll find in a PC match!

I also hope Rattati will see this, I hope I'll see how much we appreciate his job, even if sometime we are too stupid to show it One of the few assaults you'll find in a PC match!

There is a Big difference between their mistakes, Rouge communicate to us all, during the DUST Keynote:"Hey guys, forget Dust and buy a PC. Are you console gamers? Who cares! ". While Rattati did a small mistake about SPs and boosters, a mistake that had not great consequences and that he Fixed asap and apologized for. One of the few assaults you'll find in a PC match!

So glad we still have Dust514, which isn't something I would have predicted at all a year ago, especially after Rouge tried to single-handedly destroyed it, with his arrogant, worthless, beyond stupid, Fanfest antics. Hell, I was livid, and I'm one of the most chill, even tempered people on the planet. I still get mad, when I think about the people that paid money to watch it, or worse yet, went. I'm still not sure why the guy is still the Executive producer for the Shanghai crew when it's obvious who actually has passion for the game. Rouge strikes me as someone that is there in the same capacity as a doorstop. Sure he probably thinks he's necessary to keep the doors open, but he could easily be replaced with a brick. Ratatti has my full support. You can tell the guy has his head in the game and his heart in the right place. All the heat was gone in this fire and he stoked that one tiny ember and now a fire is burning once more. Now, we talk about what we're going to see in the future. We speak of the future. A future that wasn't even a possibility to most of us last year. You know as this fire grows, it'll get some version of a port, and we can thank Ratatti for that. AND it also looks like he was capable of making the game profitable. No only he loves the game but he knows what he's doing and he knows how to do his job very well!
