Ditto.
I was also an HAV pilot by trade and while it is unfortunate they won't be in at launch, I look forward to trying something new.

To be fair, EVE Online is a successful game and certainly not all of the current features were in the game at launch. The nature of long running games like that is that they are never "complete" and that new features are added on a regular basis.

The nature of long running games like that is that they are never "complete" and that new features are added on a regular basis. The big difference being that an MMO with a player driven story and economy is that it feels signficantly larger than an FPS of almost any kind. It's easier to keep peoples attention when they're in a universe instead of a few rooms and a lobby.
Also to be fair, we have no idea the scope of what is being worked on. And even if we look at in the scope of DUST which as you accurately pointed out was largely a simple lobby shooter, players still expected ongoing support of adding gear, weapons, systems etc.
Of course for the most part this didn't happen, but I think we all expected a base game with features being added over time. In fact that is effectively required for a game on a free to play model (See League of Legends constantly adding more characters)
