Jak Teston Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 99	Posted - 2012.07.22 14:36:00 - [1] - Quote Since the old thread went dead, let's rephrase the point made: Everyone knows that we as a community like Dust a lot, but there appear to be fewer and fewer people enjoying this stellar game every week. It'd be a shame if those confused people with their badly informed negative impression of the game influenced the game's launch in a less-than-awesome manner. What are your thoughts on the situation and how it can be improved? I believe matchmaking and more maps would certainly help keep people on-board.
Benjamin Hellios Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 259	Posted - 2012.07.22 14:52:00 - [2] - Quote "I believe matchmaking and more maps would certainly help keep people on-board." +1 Less time between builds if possible. More beta events. More notification stickies to let us know what they're working on, even if we don't get to see it yet. Anything to create a greater sense "being in the loop", although you could go to IRC for that.
Mavado V Noriega SyNergy Gaming 2283	Posted - 2012.07.22 14:59:00 - [3] - Quote - grouping makes all games more social and fun - lets get PLAYER MADE corps in and test out the corp battle feature (yes this will cause ALOT of epeen stroking but just gotta lock those threads asap) , having corp battles in now with just the corps we assigned to wont make it much different from the pub games we playing now unless u make it mandatory everyone has a mic to participate - as someone said above Less time between builds and more stuff, feels like the beta progressing at a snail pace atm - lets test the "real" game, planetary conquest game mode and ramp it up to the full 24v24 or 25v25 since 25 on each side makes more sense for PCQ imo with 1 person having to be in the MCC u can have 4 full squads on the ground - more weapons plz, srsly 1 model AR with different firing rates/minor tweaks isnt gonna keep FPS fans happy. Bring back the 09 AR and add more weapons in general - Add in capacitors already and stasis webifier nades so ppl cant stop QQing all the time on vehicles these are just my thoughts on what would make this beta feel less of a grind fest and more enjoyable
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:03:00 - [4] - Quote Careful with the lock dodging. I'd imagine GM Kiriap will keep a close eye. IMHO merc pack and letting the IGN noobs in. I think they should e-mail any accounts that have logged less than say 5 hours to ask what put them off. Or a live chat with DEVs for the IGN crowd maybe? In some ways, that information might be more use than us saying "can I haz ur stuff"
PEEEEEEETREEEEEEEEEEEEEE Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 781	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:04:00 - [5] - Quote What Mavado said. I don't think people are unhappy with how the game is progressing. They just seem to be getting bored with testing the same map with random sometimes unfriendly people.

Even if Corp-only grouping goes in first, we can still get to know the people in our Corps and start to strategize with them. I think you'll see a marked improvement in the attitude of all the testers once that happens.
Bresker Veyne Algintal Core Gallente Federation 152	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:23:00 - [8] - Quote I'm really looking forward to the electronics upgrade! I'll probably play DUST a couple of times until it comes out, but not that much.
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:29:00 - [9] - Quote I think they fixed that this weekend (see, they are trying, but I see them being very very busy)

EnglishSnake Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 1012	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:38:00 - [12] - Quote I just want more grouping Grouping alone will bring more ppl in Will be intresting to see how a good tank holds up to a co-ordinated attack on it
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.07.22 15:46:00 - [13] - Quote All the ones with missiles will be just fine. Can't do jack about them, except drop on them from a ship, and die as they shoot themselves anyway. But I last a few seconds longer doing that

Maybe people who are invited joins the party host's MQ and there could be a separate chat for that, both text and voice. Also an option to join friends and Corp mates on their battles.

Dro2072 Doomheim 35	Posted - 2012.07.22 16:42:00 - [16] - Quote well the next build is coming out soon even though it doesnt seem like it so i think just for the moment anyway we should hold off on some suggestions until we get that build (im going against that in the rest of my post lol but hey just like you i cant resist). the grouping thing i certainly agree is the biggest disappointment to alot of the new players and given that hopefully they add it soon rather than just before launch because alot of fps as we all know get that wrong how idk. an exmample is that while it may take longer to get into games i think its stupid 1 to be put in a game thats 3/4 of the way over and if with a group to be on different teams i would rather wait a little longer to get in a game then be separated. CCP if you are going to release this year why is ther so much of the game we havent even tested or seen? the idea on more stickies about being in the loop i think is a great idea, one way to do this for every weekend we get closer to the build you give us a little info on it so that we dont guess what is in it and get our hopes up or confused and by doing this you would be getting us all excited if we see something we like and that would make/urge us to keep playing in my opinion. nothing too in depth of course you dont want to spoil all the suprises now do you but something like a fix thats been made or another great example is one of your guys post about the medkit fix and a couple other things i forget where it was posted but that kind of i what we look forward to thats why im still playing anyway that one post made my excitment shoot through the roof. ok i edited this due to my lack of writing skills, idk if its any better but i hope this is better than just one giant paragragh.

Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.07.22 16:54:00 - [18] - Quote @Dro Paragraphs and punctuation help the DEVs understand what you mean. And us.
Dro2072 Doomheim 35	Posted - 2012.07.22 17:00:00 - [19] - Quote ya.... im not good at that never have been idk y. hey at least i put a few commas i usually tend to forget those lol. im working on it and i apologize for it.

Raynor Ragna 266	Posted - 2012.07.22 20:11:00 - [21] - Quote - More weapon models - More maps - I'd really like to see how the different districts on a planet work - More announcements on whats going on with Dust and CCP.

There aren't many games that are fun playing by yourself all day. I think you should be able to group up with around 3 to 4 other people (small groups for now to prevent organized spawn camping on a massive scale).
Fivetimes Infinity Immobile Infantry 1086	Posted - 2012.07.22 21:22:00 - [23] - Quote Dealing with RE spam, spawn camping, militia dropship abuse, terrible hit detection, and other issues gets old. I really like Dust and I try to be constructive in the feedback I give on the forums, but we are not CCP employees. We are people who play video games as a hobby. We don't owe anyone anything, and if someone doesn't want to play Dust because maybe they're grown frustrated with the current build, that's just fine.
crazy space ZionTCD Legacy Rising 879	Posted - 2012.07.22 22:10:00 - [24] - Quote one map, progress isn't real, I got 10 million sp, I'm done, its kinda worthless, same with gw2 beta, more people play when a new build is up, then go back when there is an update. why waste too much time when your stuff will get deleted anyways, and the game is only 40% done
Demonic Chaos Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 14	Posted - 2012.07.22 23:56:00 - [25] - Quote Cause you can test stuff out while it's easier to get sp and try things without taking forever to get them then realize you don't like it also when final version comes out will know what works and what to train 1st and get just what you need for your build/fit crazy space wrote: one map, progress isn't real, I got 10 million sp, I'm done, its kinda worthless, same with gw2 beta, more people play when a new build is up, then go back when there is an update. why waste too much time when your stuff will get deleted anyways, and the game is only 40% done
michael McG Doomheim 28	Posted - 2012.07.22 23:59:00 - [26] - Quote could we please get rid of the sp degrade. I think that we should not punish the people that do play alot by taking the sp that they earn away just because the other players wont get on. I know that you can easly make time were you can play more the 3 matches. I think that is one of the big things that i have seen people stop playing for and also because the next build with a more than likely a wipe so why even try to play. i have some friend that stopped play due to the sp alone.
Sin3 DeusNomine Doomheim 142	Posted - 2012.07.23 00:41:00 - [27] - Quote Daily Map changes. Each time you drop the server down you bring it up with a different map Just 2-3 maps rotating daily would make it a lot more fun. Currently I know every inch of this map and probably could drive my sagaris and get 20 kills while blind folded. People would gain new interest each day I think and play for a few games at least. :)
Azura dark 31	Posted - 2012.07.23 00:57:00 - [28] - Quote I'll list some reasons why at this point in time I don't come on every weekend. It's proberly 3 main reasons. 1. Aiming, it's not responsive from the centre have to move it too far to adjust my aim Slightly to stay on target , wich feels horrible and removes the feeling that I'm control of my aim. 2. I can't play 1 or 2 maps over and over all day. 3. I can't play with my friends, but the first problem is my major factor to playing less
michael McG Doomheim 28	Posted - 2012.07.23 02:01:00 - [29] - Quote you can play with your friends me and my brothers do it. we all have skype accounts and we count down to get in the same match. normaly not on the same team but on the same match is the best we can hope for plus you dont miss out on the voice chat because to be honest there is only a small group that uses it.
Muddybone Armored Gallentian Alliance 1	Posted - 2012.07.23 02:08:00 - [30] - Quote How about adding more players in a match with a larger map and more objectives. I think that is what most people are waiting on myself included.
