During the last build I was really worried about the future of Dust. The shooting mechanics were absolute garbage. If you don't think the current build is a marked improvement over the last, then you're full of sh*t. CCP appears to at least improve gun mechanics with each iteration. I'm pretty sure we're just seeing the bare minimum. The flavor details and fluff we're accustomed to in other shooters isn't present.
Look at the Dust 514 keynote. The AR actually sounds pretty good in that video and the shooting looks a little more crisp than what we're seeing now. There was even friendly fire. I just wish we could see what CCP is currently working on so we could gauge a better feel for how the game is improving.

Hit detection still needs work. The game still feels "clunky" and some actions feel sluggish or non-responsive. |

The game still feels "clunky" and some actions feel sluggish or non-responsive. can u explain deeper more specific examples ik a few examples of things i dont like r the knives feel awful but im used to either them moving slow but one hit killing or fast so u can spam them but i really dont want a one hit kill knife unless its a melee weapon that specifically is used to destroy people like a giant hammer or sword or axe etc. and crouching seems slow and un-crouching
Sometimes you'll unload a clip into someone and see their shields flashing but they take little or no damage. The reload mechanics need work. Knifing is clunky. Crouch and sprint mechanics need looking into. Weapon switching, tool switching is problematic. Some times you have to press L1 multiple times to get REs to go off. Grenades just not firing. The grenade throw arc is WAY TOO HIGH. Grenade physics are weird. Draw distance is pitiful. Running a tank into a light post damages the tank . Terrain is unrefined and certain areas around hills will cause the player to get stuck. Too easy to get stuck on corners and stairs. Spawn locations are bugged. Numerous quality of life improvements needed. These are just a few issues off the top of my head. Voice comms are bugged. Numerous issues with voice comms tbh. |

none the less I am going to wait until august patch before I slap down another 101 things that annoy me in dust 514.
There really needs to be a thread of known issues and complaints that is updated often and stickied at the top of both GPD and Bug/TS sub forums. No offense to the CR staff here at CCP, but trying to wade through all the posts of the last few days just to find your issue is annoying, even with the search button. It would also probably alleviate some of the nerd rage if people knew the CCP devs were aware of even the most trivial problems. |

Nice, hopefully we can get it stickied. |

Off topic, but was wondering if you happened to be a Stargate fan or a fan of another Sci-fi series? Loved the Alteran ships.
Enjoyed the following: Bablyon 5 first few seasons, Battlestar Galactia - TNS but season 3 was boring, Star Trek Next Gen, Voyager, Enterprise. Robotech/Macross, Macross +, Macross 2, Macross Zero, Macross Frontier, Adromeda, Martian Successor Nedesco, Slowly getting into Starblazers but its really dated and hard to appreciate. Bookwise only appreciated Honor Harrigton Series lately. On that note Star Trek is a love/hate relationship : I applaud thier social interactions a bit, I boo thier military (or lack therfore of) mindedness. I got hopes for dust, I just fear not everyone has the paitence to deal with ccp's pacing at times and thier odd knack for pushing back features to make room another feature made it in right. I do see ccp focusing on at least getting the following down by launch as its thier crieteria Hammering out gun play Hammering out controls Hammering out phsyics Getting Factional Wafare Functional Getting Social and Corproate Functional From there they have a bare bones launch game and from there they can keep adding stuff in.
That's why DS9 was my favorite. Sisko wasn't afraid to get dirty to save the Federation. |

That's why DS9 was my favorite. Sisko wasn't afraid to get dirty to save the Federation. A lot of fans of Star Trek dislikes how gritty, and dark Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was, but I loved it! Netflix allowed me to finally watch all episodes start to finish, and it was even better. Also (The) Sisco, disliked Picard greatly. More so then anything for what he did as a borg (Lacutest of Borg). Still after going back and watching every series I enjoyed it the most next to Star Trek: The Original Series. The military aspect of Star Trek was also best in those two series. I loved the stories though, and as pointed out before the character dialogue and progression.
The writing was exquisite. Episodes like In the Pale Moonlight, Paradise Lost, Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges (all the Section 31 episodes were badass), and Homefront are probably my top favorites. The writers were very prescient too. I remember re-watching Homefront/Paradise Lost a few years after 9/11 and just thinking..."Wow". |

I'll admit I was off topic for a number of posts. I somewhat apologise for it, but really the conversation was much better anyway then what this thread was trying to do -- stir and rile and vex the people. Even if the original poster's intentions were genuine and meant for a better they nonetheless came off as someone just offering nothing more then insults towards the game, and the developers. I saw very little constructive criticism in way of conversation towards the topic at hand. We all understand the game is far from complete, or perfect. The divide however is in how people seem to act. We're not fanboys, or blind to the problems. Some of us are just more patient, and understanding. Willing to wait and see as we fulfill our duty as [beta] testers as best we can. By being civil and calmly voicing our concerns and opinions in a rational manner. This thread was anything, but that. However it only got worse from there on both sides. Especially in terms of name calling, judging, and throwing accusations at one another. Calling someone a fanboy is childish. The problem there is that I believe both sides want to better the game just going about in two very different ways. One side is about being as loud and obnoxious as possible while being unable to wait, and then you have us who come off (maybe) as if we are blind to the situation, but we're not. we do say what we want, and what we feel is wrong. We're just more calm about it. This however does account for everyone on either side. Some people are trying troll the forums as best to their ability, and do not care for the game's well being, and some are blind to the problem. Not because, they are a fanboy or anything, but more likely because, they may feel it's not so bad or not worth noting at the very least. Anyway.... Sorr for babling somewhat, but I just figured I'd throw some input out there on the matter of communication problems. Though as I stated in the past it would help to see some proper documentation from GM, or the DEV's. Even just enough to lessen the tension on here.
Don't apologize to these assholes. This thread's OP was about as far from constructive as it could possibly be. It might as well be full of Fantasy Football picks from 3 seasons ago.
