I actually think it would better if he let Rattati keep going and keep his mitts off Nova. Hilmar is not trustworthy as far as the game goes. I still think he is the reason 1.3 didn't release.

Considering Dust 514 was free to play, I will not look the gift horse in the mouth.
Yes, but micromanagement from on high is not a positive trait in a CEO. Their job is to make sure that they give the people below them everything they need to do their job.
If he didn't want 1.3 to release he should have communicated that point sooner, not let the Devs and CPM talk about nothing except for how hard 1.3 was being worked on then pull the plug on them.

That may come at some point, but I wouldn't bet on it at the initial release.

Don't agree, when you have to pull the trigger rather than commit manpower to a project that will lose you money, kill it. That's what he did. It's not a personal vendetta, it's a matter of keeping the company going. Given the choice, I would have done the same in order to bring the future into fruition.
The resources had already been spent.
1.3 was a sunk cost, if he wanted to save the money, he should have pulled the trigger before they started working on 1.3. So he sunk resources into the update, and never bothered to recoup even some of the outlay.
Bad management decision.

Personally I found last years lobby shooter concept rather dull.... I think CCP can do better. I assume that's what they are doing, making it better.
Yeah, the whole point of the demo was for the mechanical stuff and the base game play, which was lacking in Dust. Now the are adding everything on top of it. They just had to get the foundation right.

It will be hard for him to enjoy his Cal Assault when you are cutting him up with your Minja.

Losing all your best gear to some troll hurt. But getting that troll back, making him lose his best gear, seeing him on the scoreboard with a single death and knowing you made that happen... thats an emotional moment.
The times I killed duna2002 in his tank and made him quit. The times he'd see me call in my tank, and he'd just recall his tank and quit the match... THAT FELT GOOD That's another thing that Eve Online and Dust 514 had in common. Running around with the most powerful knives in the fastest dropsuit in the game felt great and I felt like GOD in the process, but GOD DAMN IT it was expensive which is why you didn't see any players abusing it. The fact that the officer weapons were only obtainable through strong boxes and were extremely rare with each pair costing about 200,000 ISK in the secondary market made it so that I had to be extra careful when choosing my targets. Eve Online was the same thing. Sure, it's nice to fly in a Marauder but god forbid you ever lose that ship.
This was true up to a point.
The broken PC System broke the economy with certain players being able to nearly infinitely run the highest tier stuff. And some would go ao far as to leave a match while in bleedout to save a suit, or so I remember hearing.
I like the idea of it, but the execution in Dust was far from perfect, or even good.
