Also Im more about testing the gameplay not the lore or story behind dust you can keep that on going but the gameplay is horrible.

Kinda unfair to us.. I played EVE for 7 years.. have recently retired from the game (burn out) I have been here testing (weekend tests access) and so far I like what I have seen. the game has plenty of potential and the fact that I will be able to blow up EVE players starships out of the sky appeals to me a lot, interacting with them is appealing as well, we all want a great game regardless if we played EVE or not , EVE is a special type of game, with plenty of player created content as well as drama :P but in its right without EVE there would be no DUST , were not all that annoying, mostly a lot of EVE players are friendly :D especially when in the EVE radio channel :D.

sadly ive only met the annoying ones.

Get over the whole "It's being developed for consoles" schtick. This is a multiplatform game, even if Dust in itself is launching on the PS3 first, it still has a significant impact on other platforms.

As stated in the title, the reason why I think they shouldn't is because most of them aren't hardcore console fps fans, they are most likely people who play eve and/or play fps on the pc. If the game is a console fps it should be tested by console fps players from battlefield, halo, mag. and etc, not eve players. Also i could just be a dumb bastard who doesn't know sh*t at all but eve fanboys are really annoying imo.

-Only reason i want more players in the beta to test out the game, to help make it better. Have a good story or mechanics don't make this good if someone cant kill someone due to the crap hit detection, they'll be turned off by it and tell their friends not to get it so you'll have that small fanbase but will eventually die out like mag

so in other words you'd like to let console pubbies dumb it down to the point where its like every other fps?

eve players annoying? wait till i can orbital strike your ass

Stick with EVE thats why there is a big chance this game will burn out quickly because you pc players think your **** dont stink but the money is in CONSOLE GAMES YOU DUMB PUBBIE!!!!

I play Eve, and I have been playing console FPS since Golden Eye 64. Non-Eve players are really annoying IMO. They come in here with dumb ass suggestions and what not, things that do not fit into the world of Eve. Eve players tend to be older, more mature, and more intelligent (probably due to the complexity and learning curve of the game) than most other game's playerbase. It's one of the biggest selling points of Eve for many. Console FPS players tend be on the complete other end of the spectrum. So I would propose that ONLY Eve players should be allowed in the Beta, for fear the dumb public will try to force their dumb will on what should be a smart game. The only reason the general public's stupidity doesn't scare me that much is that CCP has a pretty good track record of not listening or bending to the dumb masses.

OP : I sense a troll. Seeing as you've gotten both appetizer and main course already, i'll serve the dessert.

You assume, just because the EVE players play EVE, that they know nothing at all about what makes an FPS good.
Also, one has to be a raving idiot to not "get" basic mechanics, as they seperate Wolfenstein 3D from modern games.
You forget that just about every other FPS game has the lifespan of a banana. By its very nature, DUST absolutely has to live longer than that.
You also seem to forget that DUST and EVE will become one universe. As a result, some EVE players have invested, sometimes literally, on DUST. If the game fails because it died like everybody else, those players might vote with their wallets. That would just be bad business for CCP.
I've said this before and i'll say this again : CoD players are going to suffer the most beta dropouts as CCP starts adding more complexity. Because CCP games thrive on slow, steady growth, this is actually healthy for DUST.

Lastly, respect the EVE players and their spaceships. They have long memories, longer backstab knives, and bigger guns than most DUST players could ever hope to wield. With this thread, you got one step closer to being on the recieving end of all those things.

Theres your Banana Split. Eat it before the fruit dies

when Dust 514 is coming for PC.

CCP's target market for Dust 514 is Console gamers, I hope to god that never changes.

most of the EVE player i run into for Beta, they flat out SUCK at having any kind of Shooter Gun skill & they have no concept of the Objective. so they go and abuse the Vehicles just like they do in EVE.

the reason why I think they shouldn't is because most of them aren't hardcore console fps fans
