I actually came back to DUST for one day. In the time that I played, I could not believe that this was the game that I was literally addicted to for years (closed beta vet).
DUST was the game that I had been dying for from CCP. Being an EVE player and loyal Amarr follower (seriously I bleed liquid gold, I'm that much into the Amarr), when DUST was first announced I nearly stroked out.
The day I got my closed beta invite, I sold my 360 and purchased a PS3; I couldn't believe I was finally about to play the FPS version of EVE!
As time went on, I got deeper and deeper into the game. I was playing for longer and longer periods, pretty much devoting my all into this game. I remember when the ScR was released into the game: 5/14/13. I actually missed court due to it (speeding ticket) because I was so pumped to finally get my hands on the Amarrian primary weapon (I proceeded to freak out later that day that the cops would arrest me...they didn't).
As time went on I fought harder for the Amarr, I fought harder to build my own name in this game; I wanted to make an impact, to leave a part of myself with this game.
Unbeknownst to the other members of Triple A (or PIE in general), I was actually fired from my job in May of 2014 because I was consistently late from playing DUST.
Here I am April of 2015. I have my degree and a nice job, I'd say I'm doing well. Triple A talked me back into purchasing a new PS3 so I could try DUST again. I did (read the I'm back thread by moi). I played a few matches and was truly and utterly shocked at how I practically lost years of my life to..........this.
I'll leave you all with this,
DUST is not a bad game, it is simply limited by the PS3, and the fact that CCP doesn't have experience with developing for console. If DUST had been developed for PC (Legion) or even the PS4, I feel like it would have made waves in the FPS and MMO genres.
I will not be back to DUST henceforth ever. I simply have no desire to play the game any longer in the current state it's in. Will I be back for Legion...perhaps, but I will have to see how it stands up before I come running back full tilt.
