This game should be dead per lots of people's predictions but it keeps rising again.

Why is that?

I have my opinion below but I would like to send a message out as to why this game is still good even though it has all the problems you wouldn't tolerate in a different game. Please don't fight in the thread. Each person can have their opinion.

My reason for staying:
I own several FPS but this is the only game with a decent community. I like to think the corporation system has some pull on that, but other games have tried similar approaches and this game barely has any reason to be in a corporation or loyal to a faction or group.
Games like BO, PS2, and BF have better graphics, mechanics, balance, and game play but they still fall short due to the people playing the game are just aholes! So why does Dust retain so many quality players? I also love League of Legends but that game was rated as the most hate filled game on the internet. Ha!
My main reason for sticking around is the community and I don't think CCP has anything to do with that.

MONSTER SYNERGY, I was in your corporation for over 90 days and never received my 100 million ISK. Liars and scammers! What a get way to run a corporation.

Unfortunately that's not precisely how I would describe it. More like it refuses to die. xD So how do you describe a zombie? Death Resistant? BTW - You just gave me my new alts name!

And that's only because borderlands has a ** ton of content. Dust has this "je ne se qois" that keeps me addicted. It is the best flavor of ****, minty?

MONSTER SYNERGY, I was in your corporation for over 90 days and never received my 100 million ISK. Liars and scammers! What a get way to run a corporation. Who promised you that? BTW - I just joined this corp a month ago when my last corp shriveled. I am thinking of bailing if I can't get the guys to organize for a PC (I am up to 12 PC guys in the corp, so if someone is up for a fun friendly trial match). I'm not even a director either! I would offer to help you out, but you do not sound smart. Why would someone pay you 100 mil isk to join a corp? No one is commissioned that much. Giving you isk feels like it would be a waste. I can see you now buying 1k of everything in the militia store. "Dying with your rep tool out - the logi-flasher!" Who hasn't been caught by a cute little female scout doing this?
