Well, I can't really say for sure, because I don't really know for sure!

It is unfortunate that we came in during the transition period, but we have also gotten to impact the development of this new project on the ground floor, and that's pretty cool.

Going forward, I think CCP understands the importance of community interaction, and I can only hope that means the survival of the CPM as an institution, one way or the other.

If Legion was just around the corner, then perhaps the lolCPM would still have meaning. CPM has less meaning than ever, the game has less meaning, the community has less meaning...

When will you people realize that CCP has only 1 title to their credit... because they don't know how to build games. They know how to sell; mostly the sale of bullsh!tting people into thinking they care.

CPM was invented to curb community out-cry from massive in-game EvE protesting. It's yet another cost-less front CCP uses to make it look like they care when all they want is to suck revenue out of players without providing a decent service in return. CPM is useless and has never been needed, especially in a community this small.

The fact that they decided to shut off the servers in just 12 weeks of notice tells that this decision was made much longer ago. All the 'feedback' you can CCP means nothing, as they make all the final decisions.

Legion(or whatever project they are working on) is years away from being released, by that time us Dust Bunnies will not care anymore, and CCP can add another failed title to their resume. Just imagine how many projects they started that never even left the drawing board that failed. If CCP had been in the domain of any other country besides Iceland, they'd been out of business and bankrupt by now.

So, with CCP not having credibility. CPM certainly has 0. Get over yourselves. As ALL CPMs just wanted the title for selfish gain anyway. At least you could have told us 3 weeks ago when you found out that 3 years of playing, and spending money was for nothing...

And with the ps4 doing so well, not to mention the v.r. stuff that they showed last e3 youd think ccp would have gone ps4 instead of a heavily modded capability flatform. Every game on pc has mods and hacks on it. Just thought id point out that aswell And Dust 514 is also riddled with cheaters currently. Your point being? Not even to mention... if you want to play your PC game sitting on a couch at your TV, you can do so. Nothing is stopping you. Literally, absolutely nothing. Also, I play PC games online very often. And so far, I have not encountered a cheater in any game. How are people cheating on Dust? I'd love to know this. Through player-induced glitches? Follow the forums more. There were a few posts about it just a week or two back linking youtube vids demonstrating a really long list of glitches a player can create... with spanish instructions. kitten bacon taco (nom)

Who squeezed a lemon up your starfish hole? Even if I cared to agree with you to take your ranting seriously, you're beating the dry earth, six feet above the rotting corpse of... a horse, of course. Unfortunately, I'm not feeling nearly as diplomatic as the other guy replying to you. kudos to him for having more tolerance than I. How is it CPM's responsibility to curb your whining? Did CCP bullsh!t you into caring for something you do not care about? If you are aware of this deceit, why are you still caring ...here? Do you not have free will or take responsibility for your life choices? I'm curious where that line is, or are you as tethered to other corporations for every pill you blindly swallow? You type like a college freshman still in the false reality that you are the center of this universe. If it is true that CCP's intent is to just suck the revenue from the oh-so-innocent (and rather ignorant, if I go by your description) player base without providing a decent service, then why are players still playing? Regarding your timeline deduction, being AWARE of a possibility, ever how likely that possibility may be, does not mean CPM 1) knew what the final decision would be, or 2) that they could act on it by way of informing the community due to NDA. That communication could not come until after it was finalized, and even then, only after CPM was given a green light to open communication. Even still, because YOU don't see it, does not mean CPM is useless. WTF kind of logic is that? By the very definition of a NDA, what they DO do simply is not your line of site (I typed do-do. ha!). Slightly off topic: toddlers will soon realize covering their eyes does not actually make them invisible. They eventually become self-aware and cognitive of the reality around them. But first their brain must develop to a point to reach this awareness. So what happened to you? For those dustbunnies of us that do find our way to the next iteration, I salute you. For the rest that can't swing the migration, you honestly have my sympathy and I feel the frustration---for those of you that do care for what the spirit of DUST514 was meant to be. Though, to this singular starfish, I say good riddance. How many projects indeed! Do you honestly think success comes from placing all your eggs into one basket? Pass or fail? How many versions must be tested before even considering going public? How many sketches were burned to get to that idea? How many thumbnails were scribbled and tossed to get to a decent sketch?! That's just how it is, man?! We (I type we with the assumption that humanity in general hopes to evolve to be better tomorrow in whatever things we do today) learn from failure (generally speaking) and ideally, work to improve upon mistakes so that the next go-round is better. I can't tell you how many times I went through Contra just to learn the level patterns. The 99 lives sequence helped too, but my point still stands. They'd be out of business because global markets are so different? Just stop already. CCP is already in the global arena. And finally: if 3 years of playing meant nothing, then wtf did you play for 3 fuggin years?!? Seems to me, you got some level of entertainment over that 3-year period, else you wouldn't still be here clinching your brown. CPM did what they could I'm sure. And if not? You would never know it anyway, so GTFO and HTFU. drops mic like muthafuggin Goku DISCLAIMER: For everyone else, if I disagree with you I can respect that. kitten bacon taco (nom)

Is that what happened to Judge? No is the simple answer to that. I think i love u. Wasn't sure, way back when. But lately? Yeah. If I ever make a baby ima name it after u. "K.L.D.-U."

If PC gamers can simply hack a game as big as gta 5 with ease, the new PC FPS is in for a very very horrible gameplay experience. Be prepared to see the game down on a daily basis due to hackers and modders. Be prepared to see players adding mods glitches bugs hacks and everything else that comes along with pc games. Not possible on the console. At least specifically what i am talking about. I am just going to be laughing. The PC will hold their first person shooter back even more then the ps3 and thats sad. MARK MY WORDS. This new fps they are bring is going to be so fludded with mods and hacks your not even going to want to play. I will try but i already know, from playing other FPS on the PC. Very easily hacked and modded on PC's. Worst possible platform for a FPS. I'm really not up to being a smart ass this early in the morning, so hopefully I'll keep myself in check. First, hacks in both pc/console have been discussed to death already in this thread alone. Go back and read the last 10 pages or so for logical discussion on that. I'm not saying one or the other, just it's already been discussed and replies have been made to your points already. Though to reply to it not being possible on console, I suggest searching youtube. There is a spanish video listing, describing, and giving instructions on how to replicate many player-created glitches such as infinite grenades and teleporting lavs. But that's impossible... Mostly, I'm replying to your previous comment. I'm asking honestly, why have people been stock-piling AUR to begin with? That's something that I just can't sort out in my head and it keeps me up at night. For me, I buy AU when I need it. If I need boosters, or I just don't have quite the SP needed for that proto whatever, then I'll buy up. I can even see stocking gear enough for the next few weeks of use, generally month-to-month. But beyond that seems silly and short-sited considering how extreme some updates have gone. I mean, buy 5k of a weapon knowing it may be nerfed to hell and back is just weird to me. Whatever the number. Too, it's on the PS3. How long do players expect this to last, realistically? You can quote 10 years, but really... what console market lasts for 10 years---that doesn't span generations of physical builds? It does kind of blow my mind the idea that so many people so blindly just "do" things without thinking it through, then complain that they were taken advantage of. I feel it's like placing a sign over a horse trough that reads "fresh water! $1" then someone complaining after spending $20, drinking it, then realizing it was for the horses. There's a certain level of self-awareness that one must have to survive in life. Then there are the Dust players.... kitten bacon taco (nom)
byte modal 476	Posted - 2016.02.05 16:35:00 - [8] - Quote I guess the point of it all, to draw a distinct line, is that consoles are not immune either. From that perspective, it's a none-starter to claim that PCs are susceptible---implying that a PC is the lesser choice under console based on that point. To be clear, I don't give a sh!t either way. Just pointing out, partly, why people are countering you. Myself included. kitten bacon taco (nom)
