DUST Search - this event has made DUST even less desirable.

maybe you shouldn't have gone so hard on MILITIA players then?! You only have yourself to blame for boring, empty matches.

Anyone who is losing is just immediately backing out, at the end of the day how much time are we really going to have, during the week, to play 1 video game, enough to win THIRTY matches?

I'm seeing more teams end with 5-6 players than I ever had, but the thing is, if it's half-way through a match and we're losing BADLY, I'm not staying in, because this event is only about winning matches, you don't gain anything from losing. And the way DUST is, you could predict if you're going to win or lose, and you won't be wrong, dust is that predictable, that's really, really sad man........

How long is it going to take realistically to win thirty matches? 75, 60-75 matches, who has that much time?

I have not seen backing out this badly in DUST except for this event, it's brought the worst out in people, I'm guilty too. if DUST will stop being so ******* boring and one-sided and they REMOVE the game modes and replace them with playable game modes and remove the terrible maps then maybe I'll actually want to play this game.

ambush = spawns you in front of the enemy, relentless stomps, smart deploy still puts you on the ONE uplink

skirmish = lots of running around with NOTHING to do and NO-ONE to shoot at. Most boring, empty game mode I've ever played

domination = fighting through corridors or 1 doorway for the entire game, heavily unbalanced sides, empty matches, redlined.

acquisition = would be fine if the Q didn't take forever and people actually played it.

we need to REMOVE and REPLACE the game modes in DUST because they are NOT working.
It's like you're forcing yourself to play at this point.

This event is a pointless endurance match, with no winners. CCP people don't want to play your game that much, 30 games is ridiculous, people don't want to play DUST that much because it's BORING. I can only play so many matches where I've nowhere to spawn, no backup and everyone on the enemy team is in the objective, repping each other, permanntly scanning me and I'm supposed to cross 250m of open ground by myself and somehow not get shot?

Give us a reason to play CCP, this event isn't enough and your game is NOT good enough to play to win 30 matches! Get real! Fix the glitches from YEARS ago then maybe we can move forward and have a good event.

An event based on WINNING when all you do is LOSE and are constantly put up against insane opponents with no-one on your side, is not going to work.

Dont-be-a-D1CK Dead Man's Game 237	Posted - 2015.09.15 19:07:00 - [3] - Quote Some fair and valid points here.. The event in general makes little sense.. 2500 wp, done in 2 ambushes 150kills.. I suck so this may take a bit longer That makes no sense to me, a WP goal of about 1 game's worth of WP kills = 7/8 battles if you are killing 20 per game, 10 battles min for anyone not a tryhard (The reward for kills is nowhere near worth the effort of getting them) 30 WINS, are you really going to take that chance?? CCP!! Many of your gamers will attempt it just for the sake of it, and frankly, a good percentage of these may quit altogether when they see the shoddy quality of the games performance currently, and Starter fits derping around in each battle, Completing 30 battles would make much more sense, and not be an open promotion on ragequitting for the duration of the event,, consider this for the next Event - Daily Rewards should be a challenge with a decent reward, avoid easy wins (like the current WP) and avoid long grinds (150 kills), as for the main event, try find something to keep us entertained Looking to fuel blood, sweat and precious tear production ??

Can't take three steps without getting hit by an officer shotgun, HMG, mass driver, sniper rifle, or scrambler/laser rifle. I stick to it, though. If we lose, it won't be for lack of trying on my part.

But in all seriousness, yeah, you're pretty much right. I was honestly kind of excited for this event before it actually started and I consequently realized I don't have the SP, ISK, or possibly even skill to compete with what's going to be happening for the next ten days. I honestly don't think it's the 30 matches that's doing it, though. That's actually reasonable for a ten day period. I think it's people gunning for the 150 kills. That's a huge marker for a lot of people, and it's going to be a daily, repeatable thing? A lot of players may never see that mission completed at any point through the whole ten day period. ****, I'd been through eleven matches before I finally called it quits. I managed to get a measly fourteen kills, but upwards of sixty assists. That's nothing to say about how many times I died trying to get even one kill, though. People like letting you die and coming in at the last second to killsteal in these events. It's happened once or twice someone couldn't pay the price, and I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals.

Still the same old same old but this time , I'm getting more SP's , ISK , aurum and a free suit out of it . I had a match today where we had a full team and only myself and 5 others took on 16 , so that meant that half my team was in AFK and we still won because we went hard and fought together without being in a squad because we were on the same team .

Sometimes it b's like that . I didn't have to wear PRO to do it either . Exactly. I think this is not that hard. I played 6 this morning and won my ambushes. The kills I am up in the low 100's, so not far. I will need to farm some more WP but that is easy, I will simply run a logi in a near future map. BTW - I have also turned whole stomps around. It happens all the time. If you don't fight, then you must really enjoy the loading screen. Story time: There was a full squad of 7 from a corp cough AE cough and they had a Dark Reign person in with them against myself and 7 randoms from SF. I held them in the city with my stupid shotty RE games while my team won the outside. One little scout and the random idigit who wondered into the city held 8 guys because they wanted me dead bad. They spent way too much time chasing me into traps which they blew up, but having nanos and REs they knew better. Half of them went to leave the city and I splattered 2 of the 4 left and tagged their heavy a couple times with my shotty before they got me. Spawn close, rinse repeat. Oh, and RE their vehicle landing site as it comes down. That was funny because they watched me do it and just sat in the city angry! This was in an advanced scout suit with proto weapon and equipment. You can be a pain in the biggest bad arses backside if you have some tactics and play to win, not for WP or for KDR.

Beer in the MCC time fellas. I'm buying! A better event would be to remain in a certain area for an amount of time. That would be a good mechanic to have as a game modr otherwise. I wonder if CCP can even do something like that. Does DUST on the PS3 have the capacity to use event triggers like that? CCP logic GÇô We fix what doesn't need breaking.

deezy dabest IMPERIAL SPECIAL FORCES GROUP Evil Syndicate Alliance. 3	Posted - 2015.09.15 20:38:00 - [12] - Quote We had a hilarious match earlier in the Gal facility. One of my squad mates was AFK so myself and my logi just hung back and let them take the objective. Once he returned we loaded up our two heavies and starting pushing in with our logi in tow. Upon killing about 10 people in there total and managing to take out a couple of uplinks a blueberry orbital dropped, scaring the hell out of us before we knew it was friendly, leading to us having taken the room and the objective in just a few minutes. At that point the match went from like 13 v 13 to 13 v 5 with none of their 5 left ever even coming back into the city. It was absolutely torture to get what seemed to be a good fight quickly turn into a reason to rubber band the controller and go smoke while the MCC counted down. We almost need a secondary mission set that says lose 30 battles for X amount of ISK but of course then we would just see suicide squads in ambush so that would not work either. It really is sad how toxic this community has become. ++ Remove NPC orbitals from FW -- Fix orbital timers for Eve players assisting in Planetary Conquest ++
