No It's rejected when all it is in name calling and premonitions of fail which is all the OP's post is.

Read my 2nd post in this thread, it's called caring about a game enough to come back and provide constructive criticism, something you've obviously never heard of or even considered.

This is the worst online FPS ever, seriously.

the gameplay that completely and utterly ******* SUCKS!

the game itself just simply licks the sweat off a dead donkey's dry salty ballsack.

I sincerely wanted this game to conquer and succeed, but the fact is the gameplay just ain't fun.. although it has the scope and potential to be, it SO does! that's why I'm so genuinely disappointed.

I was SO excited about this for months, I thought it would combine MAG and Battlefield into one epic game, best of all it would be free so there'd never be a lack of players.. but after a few hours of really trying to like this game, it fails miserably. I LOVE the depth of the dropsuit customization system, the market place and all the other details that allow you to customize your character to your needs, the MMO influence from Eve Online really shows in this regard.. but at the end of the day it's the gameplay that completely and utterly ******* SUCKS! It feels like an extremely budget version of MAG and Section 8 Prejudice combined, except it feels even MORE cheap and budget (in fact I feel like getting back into both of those games right now)
The incredibly BLAND graphics, the lag, the multitude of weapons that all end up being small variations of eachother and all look and feel pretty much the same with minor RoF and damage attributes.. I could go on, but my point is, regardless of all the attention to detail in the customization, the game itself just simply licks the sweat off a dead donkey's dry salty ballsack.

It's no wonder they're charging $20 for the Mercenary Pack, because that's the most money they'll be able to extract from people who've yet to play the game. A majority of people will end up disgusted and only a small minority, even smaller than the niche gamers in MAG and S8P will stick with this game simply due to it being a free game and possibly out of pure boredom. Once the final product releases on PSN, people will download, try it out and most will never touch it again. That's the single biggest reason they released the Mercenary pack, to milk all the eager and optimistic and people who like me, think this game has huge potential.

Unless the gameplay is seriously overhalled FROM SCRATCH, this game will fail within months of release. The ONLY thing that'll keep this game alive in the long term is the fact that it's free, which will entice the players with the absolute lowest of standards and that market alone.

I sincerely wanted this game to conquer and succeed, but the fact is the gameplay just ain't fun.. although it has the scope and potential to be, it SO does! that's why I'm so genuinely disappointed.

So from me, goodbye and good riddance.

*** Long Rant ***

CCP must not work weekends. How long is this ridiculous thread going to go before it's locked?

I promise you there are hundreds of threads with legitimate criticism and ideas to fix the game, that are buried 50 pages back.
All the developers will read is the first few pages, full of "DUST APPRECIATION", "GREAT JOB CCP, LOOKIN FORWARD TO IT" threads, which the silly players continue to reinforce, overlooking the big problems.

[ETC.....]
For example, any game running on console that desires to pack in infantry and vehicle combat with high player numbers in very large environments is unlikely to be pushing the graphical envelope in any way. I'm disappointed in the graphics myself, at present at least, but having played the game I can live with it. If you can't, fair enough, but at least realise some of the constraints behind the elements you object to.

let me redirect you to a good post that explains what CCP does

If you want to help out however keep leaving feedback on the things that are broken

So because it's a beta just assume everything will be fine. Because Dust will be the only MMOFPS.... Oh wait.... There's about 5 really good ones comming? Choices choices.
Dust is the obvious choice if you play EvE. Which is very few ps3 owners.

There is a difference you are forgetting.

The appreciative comments are the ones applauding progress. And there have been a lot of that.
But criticism comes in many forms, and the threads that want DUST to be more like other, old games, are generally not to be taken seriously at all. Not that DUST can't learn from their successes and failures, it should, but the entire foundation of DUST is just too alien for it to be like CoD, BF, Halo or other existing games.

DUST is the first FPS that have made me laugh, smile, frown and rage.
Inside a minute.

I was bored with CoD after an hour. An hour of really trying.

Nicely put. Good points and true. Despite that, the OP does have some valid points. Humans are emotional. It happens. Rather than discern the focus of the topic and discuss valid constructivism, the "supporters" only want to post about their blind love for this software, offering nothing to enrich the topic, only immaturity to degrade it. Here i'm contributing nothing as well, but wanted to commend a respectable post. More of which is needed to make some progress, for or against the game.

WORK IN PROGRESS CLAP ClAP CLAP

Graphics make a game good? lolno look at BF3 and that pile of shite which is constantly getting patched and made worse where its a twitch shooter to the max and everything else is made of paper

Its the only FPS I gotz so I have nothing to compare it too but I'm loving it and cant wait till we have those long running skirmish maps that roll on from one objective to the next.

I have a question: what makes you think guys that Dust 54 2ill become a completely different game without any of the issues we have now?

Dude look at eve the Very first build looks nothing like its current one, so chances are Dust will be the same.

We will have issues. Its pretty ignorant to think it wont. BUT.
Unlike other main stream shooters that may get a few purchasable download contents and a few bug fixes. Dust will receive full content patches roughly twice a year of its existence not including tweaks and bug patches being available as often as necessary.
It may not be a completely different game at release, but every year we can expect big changes to evolve it. Specially as it starts to interact with EvE more.
