Hello o/
I know you guys can't tell us anything so I just want to know the answer to one question. Are you excited about anything in Dust's future? You don't even have to say what. I just want to know if you think there is a beneficial change coming?
Somebody call for an exterminator?

Most don't even play anymore.... Check their weekly kill numbers... Pretty sure most starter fits hit better numbers in a single game than some of them have on their monthlies. So that tells you how little most of them play. Some are still active, but they are by far in the minority. |

Don't worry, they want to tell you. As Dennie Fleetfoot (current CPM and CEO of D-UNI) point out to us in the corp mail, one can only assure the community so many times before they have to take a long break and wait for the NDA to get lifted eventually.

Darth and Kirk also have impressive hours logged and lifetime WPs earned. What exactly has changed so much in the last 6 months that required the CPM to play every single day? Or week? Or how about ******* month?
Dust has the same core gameplay it had when it first launched. The current CPM has plenty of experience under their belts and playing the game weekly, with so little development occurring, is just silly.
I'd rather them spend that time in meetings with CCP actually doing what we elected them to do: act as sounding boards for CCP's ideas and providing informed feedback.
If we get a real patch soon then I would like to see the CPM login to play test the changes/new features.

Ripley what do you think not playing/not active on the boards means from a CPM? You can't say "I don't care" any louder without just starting a thread about it in GD. Hard to be a sounding board for a community you are no longer a part of. Regardless of "patches", active is active and inactive is inactive. You have some that still play, but the sad truth is most won the rigged popularity contest and moved on. In truth its more than a little shady to run the post then disappear. Looks like most wanted a free trip and an ego boost. For the few that still actually play and communicate, good for them and good for us. The rest, stop making excuses for. They can always post their own....if they ever actually log on.
I mean you don't elect a Senator to represent your state only to be ok with them moving to Canada. You expect interaction. Believe it or not some things about this game and its meta change even when there is no update. Seen any unkillable LAVs of late crashing PCs? That issues is one you would not be aware of if you have not been on for months. There are many other issues as well as well that were not here even a month ago. When it comes to representation "absence DOES NOT make the heart grow fonder".
Truthfully you yourself have been scarce on the game as well, so maybe your perception is a little distorted. |

Soto,
I'll remember to ask that the next time I elect someone to represent me.
You know because its cool to run for a position you can't actually fill or decide you don't want to after the fact.. I can bet you that "real life" won't stop them from getting on the plane.
Bottom line is communicating or playing a few hours a week is not much to ask no matter how busy you are. If it is then you need to resign. Somehow some of them manage to actually do that, so why would you expect different from the rest.
Take a look at the other CPM related thread on the front page here. Notice you only see the same few actually taking part. They found the time, and made the effort. Kinda what you expect from them all. |

The CPM aren't meant to relay our every thought and action, they aren't meant to be the ones super active. They get their information from us, because they don't catch everything even when they do play. It is OUR job to make ideas to change this game, not theirs. WE ARE THE THINKERS, THEY ARE THE MESSENGERS.

I'm still in contact with many of the cpm. All these complainers... I don't even do anything and I'm more involved. They get to listen to my stupid ideas everyday and they tolerate me with the utmost respect. They may even tolerate you too even with that attitude of yours.
What you need to realize is that your perspective is all wrong. You are blaming the wrong people. CPM has no power over CCP to force them to say anything. Their history has shown them to be an asset to the community even before becoming CPM. This popularity contest as you call it, is not what you think it is. They are popular among the player base because they are good people with good intentions for this game. Just because their activity dropped does not really change them or who they are.... It was CCP that alienated both us and the CPM. You are not around too hear it but they complain just as much about CCP's silence as everybody else. If you got more involved and actually tried to get to know any of them directly then you would see it. What are they really supposed to do at this point? Their hands are tied by CCP.
So their activity dropped... so what. the activity of everybody else has dropped too. CCP stopped talking to us. They probably can't flat out say it, but support for the game may be dropping. Or who knows maybe there is a secret port in development but nothing is certain... and they can't confirm it as to not disappoint anyone. You can be whatever you want to be. (An Optiminist, a pessimist, or a realist.) Just stop talking of things you know absolutely nothing about and try to construct a valid argument before you attempt it.

Bottom line is usually a persons signature. Where most of the CPM either list their email, skype, or twitter. Many eve dev's use twitter too. We all stalk each other for news that never comes. Do you have something specific you want to tell them and show them? Do you have a specific question? Contact them and stop being the guy that puts forth no effort other than shitposting on the forums. Because that is my job.
The reason they don't post here or answer questions is because they have no answers to give and no new information to release. It is called NDA.

They weren't elected to play the game on our behalf, they were elected to speak on our behalf.
They don't need to play in order to do that. You have misunderstood and mischaracterized their role.

How about this one, It is you who do not understand the role, and as usual you speak out of ignorance...... READ THE WHITE PAGES. Its pretty specific about expectations. One of them is a presence and updates about their doings here. You can't do that if you don't log on. You can't speak on anyone's behalf if you aren't here to read what they are saying. Not getting paid is not an excuse either as they knew that going in. If you honestly think representing players of a game you no longer play regularly or in a some cases at all is the best thing for the community or fulfilling the voters expectations for a CPM you are delusional.
Everyone knows they have very little real power, but they do have the ear of those that do while the rest of us do not. If they are not a part of the community how can they represent it? There are some who are vocal and active here, but just check the monthly numbers for some and you can see their interest in the game and the community has waned.
You can make excuses all you want, but their are many duties and expectations with the position. Some are doing their part, but others have plainly moved on. We all know the game is stagnant, but there are numerous NEW ideas presented here regularly that you could only know about by reading them and discussing here. Their are new issues arising in the game itself that you can only experience by actually playing the game (again the LAV exploit, limbo exploit, or match making errors).
Sorry I expect my representatives to actually play the game, but in all honesty that's just common sense.

No one is **** posting. They just made an observation from readily available data. Read the white pages there is a lot more to the position than having an email link in your signature.
I'll ask you for a good argument as to how having someone who no longer takes part in the game is the best person to represent those who do.
Like I said before there are some who make effort, and others who have moved on. I just don't know why you would want to make excuses for those who are not doing their part and stating that someone does not play anymore when you can plainly see it on the leaderboards is stating a fact and honestly not really up for debate. I am pretty sure most of us expected ALL of the CPMs to remain active members of the community during their term. Right now a few of them carry the burden for the others. |

When I have news I can f*cking share with the community I will do so.
Until then, let me stew in my juices in peace over it.
Ripper is right, One Eyed King is right.
Get this very clear. we signed a legally binding document promising not to reveal information that hasn't been approved for release. This means that until the devs are given the green light to share news, no matter how exciting or seemingly disastrous, we, the CPM do not have said green light.
We post on the forums, we play. We are active in discussions with the devs in ways that do bear fruit. But until we get the go-ahead like we did with the hotfix containing a lot of the shield revamps, gallente assault buffs, etc that I opened a rather interesting Q&A in the council chamber on, we cannot simply crap out tidbits and teasers to make you happy.
"NDA" has replaced the following words in my vocabulary: All of the ones that are fun to scream at people while angry.
Many of us play on alts because of the sheer breadth of sh*tposting, accusative spam that vomits itself into our chat channels which we don't want to deal with while we play the game. Some of us have real lives, and don't spend all of our time surgically attached to video game consoles 24/7 sustained only by an IV drip of coffee and steady diet of hot pockets.
And please, tell me again how we're not representing the community. Tell me how we aren't doing our "jobs" and I'm just going to point and laugh at you. And collect the tears.
When we have news to give, you will get news. That is all I can promise you. Until then, much as I would like to say something inspiring and diplomatic, you're going to have to find a way to cope. But you're not going to get more answers, faster, with rhetorical bait posts.

Guess it's not CPM's fault at all. I mean, if anyone of them could make a huge announcement or tease they certainly would.
That said, I'm still sure that CCP policy is counterproductive - whether they're working on anything new or not. I myself am a huge fan of the game, but I don't play a match since a year ago! I know I would still be playing if there was some kind of development, or if I knew there was some kind of plan. Even just a "we have a plan".

"They have a real life" Don't apply for CPM then
Why do people have this idea that they do loads anyway? They speak to a Dev once a month and even then the Devs will just palm them off and pretend they're listening, not complaining, I prefer it this way.
Inb4 a CPM member posts a bunch of bullet points of stuff that would have probably happened anyways that they "influenced"
The CPM rep tool event? The fact that they had to put "CPM" in it proves it's just an illusion to appease people. |

This is all I was asking for thank you Darth and I agree with Riley.
I just want a reason to spend time. If Darth has seen some things that are cool that's all I need to know. I just needed that right there. I feel better thank you.

Only reason I ran for CPM was because I knew I would still be playing my whole term.
I also knew that between work and play, it would be hard to find time to CPM.
And I knew you chuckleheads would make it impossible to play on my main.
And the fact that any of you think they would dust on their mains is hilarious... IWS was that kind of special. And he played when one could easily TK blue vehicles in pubbs.
Would you? Nope.

I'll tell you what, you explain how it's different. All that's changed since beta except graphics is that skirmish isn't the same game mode, HP has values and certain things have been removed.
The core gameplay hasn't changed.

The core gameplay is actually the same.
Different shaders, GI and HUD/GUI effects perhaps. All of those might/might not change the gameplay, and in Dust case they didn't.
Gameplay means literally "all the stuff you do while in game" or in a more accurate deffinition "anything that involves the player ingame" or simply "game experience": Hacking things, hacking other things that are more important than others, calling in tanks, shooting itself is part of the gameplay and it is pretty much the same as four years ago. Now, one may argue that adding myos superjump is actually a change in gameplay, and in my opinion it is. But that's just one of the few gameplay differences I see now.

The core gameplay is not the same. Saying so implies you didn't play the closed beta, including on the weekends. Everything was different - the feel, the sounds, the installations, the MCC actually moving from one point to another, the weapons, and you didn't have people jumping around like kangaroos (before the horrible myo fib change) with shotguns and mass drivers.
Everything was much better during closed beta, and it's only gone backwards since.

But I really don't disagree with that. I only wanted to shed some light on the "gameplay" word. What I really meant is that, beside the "feeling" with the game, the core gameplay is basically the same: you have to choose what dropsuit to use, how to fit it, then you search a match, then you play the game in a certain way etc.
For example: the moving MCC don't really add anything to gameplay, it adds some kind of immersion. Sound also doesn't add anything important gameplay-wise, unless, for example, CCP decides to add a much stronger footsteps sound: this way the gameplay would change because people modify the way they play the game, paying attention not to make too much noise. This would be a slight gameplay-changer, but it still does change it.
Another drastic gameplay changer, however, would have been the closed beta "experimental" sniper rifle: it had special behaviors and bullet travel time and falloff (it was as buggy as hell, that's why we don't have it now). Needless to say, this would have changed the way snipers snipe. And if we had bullet travel time and bullet falloff on certain weapons, this would also change the gameplay drastically.
Edit:
I almost forgot, another gameplay changer has been the introduction of cloak device

I think the point they are trying to make is that the CPM shouldn't consist (for the most part) of people you could consider "Forum Warriors". I feel like the CPM should consist of players who legitimately don't do anything but play Dust. There are plenty of us out there and I think that we could do a lot more to appease the community than the current CPM who I literally never see in a match. How are you supposed to help fix a game you never/barely ever play? Aside from mazzzturbating and eating chicken nuggets I really don't do anything but play Dust, I think I'd make a much better CPM member than many of the current CPM members I could rattle off.

Ideally, the CPM should be people who are very social and connected with the playerbase, so Forum Warriors who occasionally play the game are much better choices for the Council than active Dust addicts.
Of course, it is difficult for the CPM to socialize with the playerbase when everyone sh*t talks them and tries to tell them how to do their job. I would hate be in their shoes, and I'm pretty sure you would too.
Also, read Breakin's posts: They do play the game.

Sincerely, Glantix / Ice But the majority of the current CPM does not play the game on anything near a regular basis, how can you socialize with players you never play with? I agree they have a difficult job and wish them godspeed in every sense of the word but dammit none of them play like we play. We are there, every single day, debating balancing issues and new ideas. We're the ones getting wrecked by the things that need a nerf and playing with the roles that need a buff, not the CPM (from my personal view of the battlefield). They don't play the game like many other players play the game and I feel like if your job is to socialize with a playerbase you should be a player, but the last time I saw a CPM in a battle it was 3 months ago and it was Breakin Stuff, him and Darth are the only two CPM's I could even confirm exist anymore. I'm not saying the CPM is doing a bad job, I'm just saying nobody notices them doing their job at all, good or bad. I feel like they should make more of an effort to mingle, hell, I'll invite every single one of them to OBTB and we can have a grand old party and they can hear my points about ADS balancing.
TLDR: I feel over-represented and under-understanded by the CPM

Pre-Myofib jumping dust was still a game worth playing, Post-Myo's.....might as well give every suit 5 highs 5 lows and unlimited CPU and PG. The game has literally dissolved into who's the laggiest latino with a Bons/Agimus and the most Myo's. Dust in beta was a noteworthy game. Now it's just a bundle of coulda-woulda-shoulda and a handful of too late.

More features, more weapons which offer better balance, more suits which offer better balance. There is all around better balance now than there was in closed beta. No one weapon or module (looking at you myofib) is overpowered over everyone.

despite the frunk, you are making valid points.
Believe it or not, most of the time i have free to DUST up is occupied talking to the devs.
But past that the issue we are bumping into is... we can only take your feedback TO the devs ATM.
We have nothing we can report back at this time.
As a few have said, there's only so many times I can say "things are happening please be patient" before I feel like a placation-vomiting moron.
I see the DUST community as being interested in actual information, not in vague handwavium.
When I have more than vague handwavium, I will be the first a**hole on the keyboard answering your questions as best I can.
But despite my usual proclivities, I'm not interested in making touchy topics worse.

The CPM has done more than enough to earn my trust over the last few iterations. They've only had a few bad members, and for the most part I feel like they all went up to bat for the DUST community in a big way.
Honestly, i feel the CPM has done more for us than the CSM has done for EVE in the last few years. I would argue we have the superior council, even with their more limited power, history, perks, and exposure.
Perhaps you are too lost in the silence to remember back before it started, but the CPM when unmuzzled is one mouthy group. They started numerous feedback threads, spreadsheets, and googledocs with the community to bundle feedback. They've worked nearly a second job (for free) on our behalf, and I know how proactive they are when they are given the NDA wiggle room to do so.

Part of the whole reason for the NDA is not indicating when features may or may not be released, and what may or may not be in them. Giving a time table is an obvious breach of that.

Dust has the same core gameplay it had when it first launched.
LOL no How is the GAMEPLAY different? The only difference is HP has a value and isn't a percentage. lol did you watch the whole video? Because your reply makes it sound like you didn't. I'll tell you what, you explain how it's different. All that's changed since beta except graphics is that skirmish isn't the same game mode, HP has values and certain things have been removed. The core gameplay hasn't changed.
Five huge paradigm shifts in gameplay and in game experience:
1. Invisibility: Does this even require an explanation of how it changed the game. This allows shotgunners to get even closer and actually insert their shotgun into the rectal area.
2. Jumping 25 feet high: breaks the logical routing of a footsoldier around obstacles and significantly changed gun game. Acts as a replacement strafe since strafing was nerfed.
3. Strafe speed and backing speed reduced: impairs ability to actually maneuver out of harms way. Now, there is no recourse if caught more than 3 feet from cover.
4. Player trading: allowed players with seemingly unlimited cash to amass a 50 year supply of officer weapons in their personal depot. This changed the context of the battlefield and meant even more instadeaths for noobs and amateurs.
5. Invincible tanks: ... There was a time when any tank could be destroyed by a couple of foot soldiers. Then there came a wave of invincible tanks reducing A/V to dropship removal.
There are probably more, but the core experience of this game has changed much in my opinion. I liked it early on and find most of the "progress" to be disgruntling. Fun is going down. Dumb is going up. |

I just want to know if you think there is a beneficial change coming? . Before I get banned from the forum . a little bird told me that they have been privileged in testing out the new features and giving their feed back to CCP . is the source reliable? I believe so . this person was not to long ago with Rattati on skype exchanging addons and fixes on the previous major update . ( does CCP have a private test server ? Yes they do / did they just finish building a new server? Yes they did ) . can I say with a clear conscious that its being tested for the PS3? Nope. Can you see it on the PS4? 50/50 , same could be said for P.C .

despite the drunk, you are making valid points. Believe it or not, most of the time i have free to DUST up is occupied talking to the devs. But past that the issue we are bumping into is... we can only take your feedback TO the devs ATM. We have nothing we can report back at this time. As a few have said, there's only so many times I can say "things are happening please be patient" before I feel like a placation-vomiting moron. I see the DUST community as being interested in actual information, not in vague handwavium. When I have more than vague handwavium, I will be the first a**hole on the keyboard answering your questions as best I can. But despite my usual proclivities, I'm not interested in making touchy topics worse. I don't really care if all you have is kinda handwavium. I just want to see you guys on the field. Forget the questions, forget the expectations. I just want to know you guys are still dealing with the same BS on a daily basis that we are. You can't help fix a game you aren't playing. So pretty please, CPM, from the bottom of my cold beatless heart, please make an effort to be seen on the field with the rest of us. I know you all have real lives and things to do, places to be, but I don't, I see who's playing and who's not and I can plainly see that you guys aren't. If you can't find the time to at least work in a few battles a week then please resign, I don't want to be represented by someone who never steps foot on my side of the fence. It's like having the president of the U.S. living in Dubai.

Especially when cloaks were 100% invisible even when moving when viewed through certain scopes (laser rifle for the most part) It was ridiculous for an enemy who's already almost impossible to see, to literally be impossible to see when you aimed at him. It was like looking at really dim stars.

I don't pester the CPM about upcoming anything and don't intend to and I suggest that the community for the most part let them be, we all know they can't say anything, but dammit that doesn't mean they can't play anything.

Judge was the master of pulling the wool over people's eyes.
Cloaks are harder to see the more backlighting there is and the further away you are looking. Muzzle flash also makes them harder to see. Judge has chosen long range engagements with muzzle flash effect, and crucially high levels of background light in these examples. How often is a cloaked merc going to have sky backlighting?
Cloaks are not invisible through laser rifle scopes.
I'm sure he would say it just demonstrates that cloaks can be invisible or difficult to see. But the level of rhetoric, bias and misdirection he put into his videos, whilst sounding intelligent, was always a dangerous combination. |

cloaks are easily spotted while moving in darker maps and up close. they're intended BY DESIGN to keep scouts from being easily picked off at range.
Saying it's unfair you can't see them at near-sniper ranges is kinda like b*tching that water is wet.
