It's not a completely separate game. Eventually pilots and mercs will be in the same corps and alliances. Bombardment will be performed by pilots which will most likely result in fleet fights.
Well this will definitely change my opinion of DUST. Granted I don't know really anything about EVE other than when I tried the beta before it's release it had the worse keyboard control that I ever seen in a game, which is why I didn't test it long, was an utter mess.
So going off what you said and some others, we can be involved in a battle on a planet and some EVE player in the biggest ship can just come along and blow our planet up while we are in the middle of a game session?
What's the point of this being an FPS game if they allow that kind of stupid game integration? That will kill this title fast as non EVE players will ditch it.
there will be structures on the planets as well that can shoot back at the ships in space shooting you. The whole point of Dust as well as Eve is to expand the world of New Eden, where both eve and dust take place.
yes they are two seperate games, yes they interact together. Dust is geared towards a type of player that will eventually look beyond kdr's and single matches, it will be for players who can see the whole scope of it all, picture second life with spaceships, guns, soldiers and tanks, in a vastly larger area than second life is.
As an eve player, I love the new possibilities this will open up for me to be immersed in New Eden, for my son who is a console gamer, its a drop ship party and a countdown till dad is floating above the match helping him out from the laptop.
Dust isn't a full fps, its an mmo, with fps mechanics, that is going to be offered for free, with very limited rules. |

Well hopefully the EVE players in their biggest ships don't/can't ruin the DUST experience I'm all for that. It would be a most unfair advantage that can/will deter many non EVE players if EVE players are able and will ruin DUST. It's just my two cents but I will see how the devs integrate the whole experience, I'm still excited about the game but when/if it becomes not fun anymore and just a big headache then it's time to find another game.
Thanks again for your replies.
Alot of the fun from eve comes from screwing over people, weather its screwing up their markets, scamming them, destroying the fleet with your fleet, infiltrating their corp and stealing some/all assets, etc. The key will be to also be successful in that portion of the game as well as being able to fulfill your contractual obligations, being able to not fall prey to greed so you get scammed (saw someone doing the nigerian prince scam in a system the other day and he made a couple of billion off it), thinking outside the box for tactics, and having a team you can trust. I suggest looking for a corp as soon as its implemented maybe even sooner that fits on how you want to play dust (rpg, kdr, esports, etc. New Eden at times seems more like a social experiment than anything else, and some days it makes me cringe, others, it reminds me why i love the game :) |

(yeah so relating this to the 2 biggest wars probably in all of computer game history might be a bit wild, but I'm interested because everyone says no point messing with the swarm).
I spent some time with MM fighting bob and bob pets down in null, they did feel very invincible and it took quite a bit of effort to deal with them, the bob pet corps on the other hand, were alot easier.
The second time we took on BoB pets i was with vc, and our corp went from pirate pvp to straight null pvp, so we essentially took on the role of guerrilla warfare and found it pretty effective, but again, BoB weren't as easily disrupted.
With this new war brewing, it will be interesting to see what the end results are, since i am sure there is alot of back room negotiations/espionage going on that no one really hears about which may seriously affect how some corps/alliances are in the end of it all |
