This game is awesome!! Sure there is still some bugs, and the game needs waaaaay more polish but that's what we're here for......
But this whole time I'm thinking to myself how much cooler it would be with more terrain destruction; not just a turret exploding or a clone bay blowing up.. Real terrain destruction, like parts of the biomass spire falling on tanks and people, or those massive pipes in the plateau map breaking apart as the people below scatter, running for their lives!
I know, I know impossible right? Even if they had it laid out, would the U3 engine even be able to do it justice? Hey doesn't CCP have some DICE guys loitering around there these days? How about that awesome Carbon engine they have been building and tweaking? Hows the physics engine in that? (I'm sorry in advance for my lack of research) The clothes and lighting looks amazing in that! To bad we wont see any dust players wearing any dresses to battle 
If you devigods are listening, I know you've thought about it... I just want you to know I've thought about it too and I think its a great idea! 
I guess I'm just mad that terrain destruction isn't here on release and I don't wanna wait for it! Do i really have to wait until the PS4 to find this awesome idea iterated into DUST?

D Park wrote:CCP have to make other kinds of decisions when it comes to features like destruction -- even if the engine could do it there's only so much processing power and bandwidth to go around (we talked about this in a "number of players" thread). If CCP allocated resources to destruction we might have to give up player count or some interactivity or map size or ... you know. That being said, blowing through a hill to make a new path to an objective would be very neat. And like the OP said, bringing down a tower on a tank would be pretty awesome too. Now being charged for the tower you just blew up -- not so nice. 
Well, i don't know about that level of destruction but rockets do make buildings collapse if you shoot enough of them i.e rockets of the future should collapse buildings of the future!
And if any server could handle that bandwidth and processing power it would be CCP's right? |

I agree with almost everything you guys have been saying except 2 points...
1- blowing up mountains would be a little to much
2- Im not sure if "we dont have the tech to pull this off right" is going to fly these days, what with thos kind of game mechanic has been around for almost a decade. |
