All of the people except the elites, the vets, the known corps, have left the game. The only people to play against are the same old no-lifers and try-hards and also generally decent players.

Matchmaking will never work, we don't have enough players! This could have been fixed if new players were separated from vets in the first place. Do you wonder why you have no one to play against? Do you wonder why it's always n00bs on one team and vets on the other? Because nobody plays DUST anymore.

Did you think you could roll in a proto squad forever and people wouldn't quit playing?

Here's the idea, CCP didn't want to separate players because then there is no incentive for those new players to purchase PRO level AUR items to compete, they wouldn't have to.

So due to the player's selfishness of constant stomping on new players and due to CCP's greed to milk those new players, we don't have any! It's the same people again and again and again. A lot of you here know the playerbase well enough to bet real money on how the game will play out, you know who's going to win before you even spawn.

I quit a game if the objective is red and there are no blues around it within the first 5 minutes, but then it's back to the long queue times, then I'm often put in the exact same circumstances again! It's a vicious cycle of boredom and I end up turning the game off. Sometimes I've played for 2 hours+ and realised I don't even have my keys yet!

So I quit 2 games today because there was ZERO purpose to them other than padding people's stats and further diminishing the playerbase, I try a third game and what happens? Every single person on my team is in an NPC corp, yet I'm against Random Gunz and a whole squad of Prima Gallicus.

They took the point before I got out of the MCC!

That right there is the mark of a DEAD GAME, when I have to quit game after game yet every single match is the same as the last one, one-sided and boring as hell.

Don't hope for any kind of matchmaking it's too late for that.

I know some people reading here cannot even bring themselves to turn the bloody Playstation on, because they know what will happen.

Also we had more votes cast on the first day of CPM2 elections that we did in the entire campaign last year...

Hardly the sign of a dead game it could be argued.

what is wrong with the french?

I was once in a pc with 12 french players and 1 french guy who would translate for the fc who spoke english.


Besides that pitfall. We won. Then won again. Then won again. These guys who don't even speak english really know how to follow orders and not only that but they were good. I was thoroughly impressed with the french players of this game. A few of them even beat my score and I usually am at the top of the leader board.... lets blame the language barrier for that one because ego prevents me from ever saying someone is better. :p

Half of those votes are probably jadek. He has the alt monopoly running.

You say the game is dead yet, just by going off of what you said, you don't even finish matches. How can you say Dust is dead if you quit matches long before they are done? Many times I've had matches that were bad in the beginning but my team ended up winning.

Back in my day, people only left matches when a squad member didn't get in, or it was a redline stomp 75% of the game through.

Dust is pretty dead, in my opinion. Just look at the numbers of people online at any given time in Dust. What is it? Around 2.5k players? It used to be almost twice that last year.

Yeah all the elite vets are gone, but the real vets who want this game to live on and succeed are still here.

Also this is a time where we need to embrace the new faces and encourage them to become the new elites. Sure we won't see the skill of some of the past players but who cares. Its a game. Let these players develop. It will pay off.
