I believe that we, the players of Dust, are the most important aspect of this upcoming election. Without us, Dust is nothing.
I am asking for your vote as someone who has seen everything this game has to offer, both good and bad, and hopes to improve it in any way he can. With your support, we can strengthen the bond between the community and CCP, and forge a better future for everyone that calls New Eden home.
Please read my full campaign thread here, and be sure to leave your questions, comments, and concerns. I want to hear from YOU!
And if you're in a hurry, here's a TLDR version of what I stand for:

- The Community is more important than anything else.
- A port to Next Generation consoles will ensure the Community's future.
- The New Player Experience needs to be overhauled, better tutorials, multi-stage academy, help channels.
- Vehicles need further rebalancing along with racial parity.
- Dropships in particular require tweaking, and CCP must define the dropship's role on the battlefield.
- Continued streamlining of the UI, particularly in regards to cooperation management.
- CCP must continue to push for more EVE related content, incentives for pilots, shared events etc.

I truly appreciate that compliment, Heim.
I would also like to assure everyone that, while flying Dropships is my favorite way to play Dust, I will never put the desires of vehicle users before any others.
Dust is amazing because of it's diversity, and I only want to see that flourish.

It's scary, because I actually believe you, Jadek

Ghosts Chance wrote:alrighty there darth.
community is everything and our community is steadily shrinking lower and lower and lower...
do you honestly think anythings going to increase player numbers by a large enough amount to bring the game around? or is dust going to continue hemoraging players untill its the same 40 people fighting each other over and over till the server goes dark?
As grim as it sounds, the PS3's lifespan is over. So no, I do not believe the community has much room to grow on a console that is steadily declining.
And that is why the single most important thing CCP can do is to announce a port to next generation hardware. The logical choice would be PS4, because not only would that result in the least amount of community fracturing, but it would also put CCP's product front and center on an already wildly successful platform.

I hate lag just as much as the next guy or gal, and I've been in enough PCs to see it's crippling effect.
That said, I think it's a bit of a stretch to call Dust pointless because of it. Yes it's a huge problem, and should be a constant focus for improvement, but I think if CCP could "Fix Lag" they'd already have done it. Perhaps new hardware will help them figure it out, but it's clear to me that they are trying.
Thanks for your comment, Bradric.

NotAnotherClone wrote:Sadly any kind of announcement about porting the game will just kill it. We dont know how much of the playerbase wants it to be ported to pc or ps4. By announcing one you make all those who support the other stop playing because they wont br able to keep playing after the port.
What you say is true, but isn't it better to abandon the old when the new has so much more potential?
We rob Dust of its chance to grow if we shackle it to a sinking ship.
Thanks for your comment, Clone.

Ah, I understand. You're probably right, and they withhold any and all information to protect themselves from the kind of backlash they received from the Legion announcement.
That sort of strategy allows them the freedom to work without scrutiny, but is terrible for the players seeking certainty.
Thanks for your comment!

Ghosts Chance wrote:and once you get behind the NDA and confirm that there is absolutly no port in dusts future? and that legion development has ceased completly?
then as a CPM meber you have to walk around like you have no idea ?
how are you going to aproch the situation if thats confirmed for you as the case?
If I sign the NDA I am honor bound to keep it. This is how it has been for CPM0 and CPM1, and that's how it will be with CPM2.
It's unfortunate that we are still in the dark about Dust's future, but that's why we must elect a council that will tirelessly advocate on the player's behalf, and push for not just the port, but for transparency regarding developmental decisions in general.
More communication is needed, and I strongly believe I can help make that happen.

Slim Winning wrote:The NUMBER ONE killer of this game is the lack of NPE.
Since you're part of the problem, you're just another chump wanna be CPM.
The first part is true. If new players aren't interested in the game, or get scared off before they even get the chance, how will the community grow?
Better tutorials, an academy system that teaches a wider variety of skills, and more in game reminders that the forums exist and are a good place to get help. We need all these things and more if we want Dust to flourish.
The second part of your comment... Well, I don't agree with at all. But hey, it's your opinion and you've got a right to it

Props, Darth. I'm impressed. Actually really hope you make it onto the CPM, even if I don't. But if I do, I really look forward to working with you.
I appreciate that tremendously, Aeon. The feeling is mutual o7

Apocalyptic Destroyerr wrote:Darth !!! Will you promise to remove the Gal Lag Facility ?m
I will promise to bring it up, but I cannot guarantee any action on CCP's behalf.
I actually like the research facility, and I want to see continued progress towards stomping out lag without having to remove maps entirely like the MCC Construction map situation.

deadpool lifetone wrote:Seriously this game was meant to be on PC from the jump.
It probably should have been, or at least it would have been a smoother transition if it had been. It's likely Dust would have had a greater EVE playerbase to start off with, and CCP would have been able to use hardware they had already grown accustomed to.
But, if this game had only come out on PC, many people like myself would never have been tempted to give it a try. So however bad of a decision it was from a business perspective, I'm glad they did what they did
