Stormblade Green KnightKiller's inc. 65	Posted - 2015.03.28 01:48:00 - [1] - Quote Two factors are in play for the diminishing player base..... The major problems with the game itself and Players..... Now before you jump down my throat as some may..... I mean players who try hard in pubs running proto non stop..... I won't bother with details cause I know most people already know the rest of the story.. One might say... I'm very skilled... yet I'm his apprentice... So what does that say about my mentor?

So eck. Normally , I couldn't run proto that often... maybe every few games... but when I came back I had a rather large wallet , 400 mil large , and still had 200 proto logi fits I had bought with all my isk before I left for a year. I'm just a solop mostly player though... those full proto squads that run every day together though are annoying and it sucks when match making puts you up against them twice in a row, but as far as I can tell that's not always the case for standard games but it does happen..and they are pretty much impossible to stop without another competent proto squad or a team who runs together on the regular :\

Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 11278	Posted - 2015.03.28 02:56:00 - [8] - Quote I believe the major factor towards diminishing player counts is a combination of many factors instead of one: 1. CCP became overambitious and let its complex future vision get in the way of features that were needed badly but got delayed by it. 2. The Dust 514 Keynote of Fanfest 2014 (aka Rouge Wedding). 3. Lack of communication with devs regarding Project Legion only to later find out during this year's Fanfest that the Shanghai office is busy with Project Nemesis for some reason even though we thought they were busy with Project Legion. 4. Players now suspecting Project Legion is never going to be greenlit. 5. Even if Dust is making a profit, a lot of players are still unsure if the game will move out of the PS3 and into the PS4.

Joel II X Bacon with a bottle of Quafe 6836	Posted - 2015.03.28 03:15:00 - [10] - Quote I... I think I'll play the few Assassin's Creed games I didn't touch. Kind of sick of playing Dust so much. Usually, I love shooters, but dust is pretty stale. Only two game modes? C'mon.

Kind of sick of playing Dust so much. Usually, I love shooters, but dust is pretty stale. Only two game modes? C'mon. 3... and FW... And PC's... so 5, still not that much either way. FW and PC's still run under the basis of Dom/Skirmish/Ambush and even then with how the map layouts are, Dom and Skirmish don't have much to differentiate themselves. There are so many differing elements that can make and improve Dust but with a year wasted on hotfixes and the past months just shifting away from a broken game to what we have now, Dust players are allowed to be "frustrated". Likewise other shooers like Unchartered had 6 game modes for competitive play, MAG and Resistance 2 had 5. even if you account for how game modes could be nearly similar, you'd still have 5/4/4 respectively. I also think the Dust dev team did show quite a degree of ignorance and that's solely on them; a lot of other shooters were doing a lot of stuff but instead of using what other studios did and implement similarities that were favorite features of other games, they decided to implement the same match modes at it's core. I would've loved to have seen 3 teams in a match vying for control, I wouldn't mind changing objectives during a match and I think Resistance 2's "capture the flag" was a great game mode forcing players to be strategic and support their teammates. A major flaw of Dust is the lack of an objective: I've seen whole corps content to sit on the sidelines for the sake of kills and ensure a high KDR while doing their least to sacrifice their own goods and I've seen only a handful of matches, maybe 5 so far this month, where in pub matches everyone is throwing everything they have to win. When it's the former it REALLY REALLY IS BORING. There is no incentive to play the match at that stage; with half of the team willingly ready to abandon you why should you face the half squad in front of you? IF KDR was abandoned and greater payouts, somewhere on the scale of 5-10 times, were made, I think players might be willing to say "f--k it I'm risking it all". That's really the big weakness of Dust; for some players it's doing the least for the most reward and it's a ** poor strategy to rely on. Can Dust be fun? I'm pretty sure it can be fun and be made to be fun. But I think most of us already threw in that towel; we're like the middle-aged chic seeking a nice guy and not Brad Pitt For most of us, a functional game is a vast improvement to a year ago and that really speaks volumes as to how low our expectations for the game have fallen and how easily smitten we can be with CCP with any positive step forward. It's sad but true; this game can continually disappoint but as long as they release one good thing, albeit tiny stuff, we'll be happy. I'll be the first to call it, if this were a relationship, it'd be like Al Bundy and Married with Children** with everything sucking and only 1 good thing happening a week which is enough to not eff off our clones off from the world continually
