It really is. Sit back and take the time to think about it. As a gamer, how appealing is DUST514 as a title? It isn't.
To a person unfamiliar with the game, this title makes no sense. Is it a game about dust particles? What does 514 stand for? What genre is it?
Even the veterans of the game don't know what DUST514 stands for and I'm willing to bet Rattati doesn't know as well. At least titles like Call of Duty, Battlefield, Counter-Strike, etc. make some sense. They even give some indication as to what type of games they each are.

One more thing... How ambiguous is 514?
If I didn't already know that it's said as "five one four," I'd be confused to all hell as what to make of it.
Is it five-hundred fourteen? Is it fifty-one four? Is it five fourteen? |

Well Skylanders was taken and doesn't at all accurately describe this game, so the only other name available on the 2009 Video Game Names list with the Icelandic Copyright Office was DUST 514. And only that because DUST 513 was already claimed by a swedish death metal band.
Deal with it!

Well, I am pissed, and coming to GD while being one pissed off mofo is a bad idea, but i will bite. Your name is pathetic, stupid, reckless, and all around dumb. I don't think that is enough synonymous. Idiotic, foolish, half-witted, ludicrous, senseless, unintelligent, brainless, doltish. Your name is all around stupid. DUST has a better name than yours, at least it has an origin. What are you? Just some cannon fodder they use to test cars, they don't even use your ass anymore.

OK, so let me explain to you what "Dust 514" means.
So, we have the "Dust" part. It is most likely to be a reference to Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust. Simple enough.
Now, we have the 514 part of the name. I don't know exactly what is means (Wasn't Dust released on 5/14?), but I have found This Chronicle that may be of interest. In short, it tells of some of the Dust clones having horrible visions of blood-red skies, strange beings (probably sleepers or something), and the number 514 written in blood. 514 is probably like the New Eden version of 666 by now.
Hope this helps. |

514 is a disease. It subjects the clone into extreme lunacy, the writing in blood and stuff you said. This is beta knowledge. It is known to be fatal. Ofc newberries wouldn't know because not much else has been stated lore wise in DUST. We hardly have lore, so we cling to EVE lore as our guide.
I is not speaking to you, i am just using your quote as emphasis. People, please read the chronicles, it is of great help in your learning of lore.

In the context of the lore in New Eden, DUST 514 is an excellent title.
The DUST part is best explained by an old, damn near technically dead valklear who is mostly cybernetic. I don't have the exact quote, but the gist is:
"We all came from the DUST. Some day we will return to the Dust... But not them." (referring to the first templars)
"...and I will commute your flesh to DUST." -Sansha Kuvakei during the incursion trailer.
WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

As a title, it always made sense to me. Ashes to ashes, Dust to Dust, which is obvious analogy for a immortal clone that dies constantly.
Except the 514 part. WTF DEVS, LET US KNOW ALREADY.

So let's deconstruct this piece of information.
The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot will be what we are to work off of.
-The poem is broken down into five sections.
We'll use this as a starting point to see how DUST514 relates to Eliot's poem.
-"April is the cruellest month, breeding"
This is the first line to the first section of the poem. What significance does it have?

I get part of what you mean but Rattati definitely knows what 514 stands for, as do I and many others, I've even screen-shotted the forum post so I never forget it!
The bit I agree with is, it's not appealing, you do have to be "in the know" and yes, a lot of people wouldn't even know it's a shooter. It has appeal but it doesn't jump out at you. |

But it stands out among the pack because it doesn't try to out-edgy the competition names.
Is it a good title?
I really have no opinion. I feel that if the active gameplay stood on it's own merits without needing rattati to roadmap the day he and his team eviscerate and rebuild the code then the title wouldn't matter.
It would be all about the havoc.
It would be all about reducing your enemies to nanite- scorched DUST.

One, sand attack can't be "super effective" considering it affects a stat and not HP, IE accuracy.
Two, one could interpret this as an attempt at misdirection on Rattati's part to avoid the question being answered.

To a person unfamiliar with the game, this title makes no sense. Is it a game about dust particles? What does 514 stand for? What genre is it?
Even the veterans of the game don't know what DUST514 stands for and I'm willing to bet Rattati doesn't know as well. At least titles like Call of Duty, Battlefield, Counter-Strike, etc. make some sense. They even give some indication as to what type of games they each are.

If I didn't already know that it's said as "five one four," I'd be confused to all hell as what to make of it.
Is it five-hundred fourteen? Is it fifty-one four? Is it five fourteen?
All this time I've been saying five fourteen....

No, CPM do not know; and I don't either. The theories to FIVE ONE FOUR has eluded the mass public since inception. The clues are there.
Dust on the other hand; there is something so very primal about the name that relates to us as immortal soldiers it doesn't take much thinking to find meaning with it about the whole screwed up situation we'd all share within this game universe.
I mean how profound is that word when your are born into your immortality with you coming to terms and crossing the line that separates you from mortal hood. A locked room, a rusty fan creaking, the hot dusty sun shining through the dirt caked windows. One flickering light that seen better days shines upon a table. Adorning the aged metal plane a missive and pistol. The instructions the most simple yet the most difficult to follow.
"Kill Yourself"
To meet death and to grin at him as you are pulled away from his grasp forever escaping it, or do you run away from him only for him to catch you unawares or tired. How much will you lose? How much can you keep? How much before you become bothersome noise in the background radiation of the universe?

FIRST TESTDUMMY wrote:CCP Rattati wrote:...I will show you fear in a handful of dust... Frisch weht der Wind Der Heimat zu, Mein Irisch Kind, Wo weilest du? So let's deconstruct this piece of information. The Waste Land by T.S. Eliot will be what we are to work off of. -The poem is broken down into five sections. We'll use this as a starting point to see how DUST514 relates to Eliot's poem. -"April is the cruellest month, breeding" This is the first line to the first section of the poem. What significance does it have? Will be back later. Too tired to analyze anything at the moment...
What if "Five, One, and Four" relates to the themes of each section in The Waste Land, which in turn relate to the Eve universe lore?
Section V - What the Thunder Said
Section I - The Burial of the Dead
Section IV - Death by Water
What is the theme of each section and how can we compare it to Dust? I know nothing of the lore so... |

As for the OP, eh the title is as good as any other imo. In fact at least it's more original than half the games out there, especially sequel games that just keep tacking numbers onto the original name.
I will admit however the story/history of this game fails pretty hard. You get that opening movie and that's about it. I had no idea about any the factions or anything till that PlayStation home event came out that gave you the free car for watching each the faction video's in that game.
You had to go to a separate game to get the back story of Dust....
To really learn anything about anything you got to look at the Eve connection but frankly that's so massive and been going on for years it could fill a section in a library if they were printed into books. So New Eden and the Dust world has an immense back story and in depth setting, but we never get to see it in the game itself.
Kind of reminds me of those old games on the original NES or even Atari that had a huge story built up that you would never know about unless you read the manual.

Dust 514 totally sounds and looks like a first person shooter, maybe you should taste it just to be sure. I knew what it was when I first came across it. Then I started playing and got very addicted to it and other than playing this game until I turn to dust. I always thought it was as simple as Eve was full of pilots and Dust was mercs in the dirt but that was my noobie impression. Now I have seen plenty of lore and others interpretations. All I can say is good stuff and I wouldn't want the name to be anything else!
It's a blue blue world...
