DUST Search - where is everyone??????

Well for starters CCP did a horrible job letting people know that the new build was up and released today with servers running. You then have to figure that given it's a tuesday and this being now middle of the week that most people are busy. Coupled with how large of a download this update was -- being just over two gigs of data. Most people especially in the United States, Americas, and Europe have some of the worst internet connections especially compared to our Eastern brothers and sisters (especially around South Korea, and Japan.)

Also you have to always realize that the population on the forums here makes up an even smaller percentage of the players in-game, and those with access at this time to Dust514. Simply put you have a large factor of variables going against the new build at the moment, and I did not even discuss the aparent disconnection errors people are complaining about in-game.

Though seriously an e-mail from CCP would have been wonderful, and appreciated. Yes, I know I am complaining about CCP's lack of proper information (again). They need to fix that.

tribal wyvern ZionTCD Legacy Rising 673	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:28:00 - [1] - Quote Last build we had at any one time at leaste 500 mercs playing, now........in that huge list of servers there's only around 2 full games at 32. Do I smell or somethin?
Debacle Nano Shadow Company HQ 639	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:29:00 - [2] - Quote Not able to get into games.
Veigar Mordekaiser Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 676	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:30:00 - [3] - Quote Everybody quit, this build is looking like a flop (i don't think this is true). I want E3 back - aside from the prettier graphics and new maps that is.
Icy Tiger 496	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:32:00 - [4] - Quote It's a 2 GB patch only a few people know about, si not many people are on. Not to mention most fittings are broken, and freezes suck.

Ah that makes sense. it took me at leaste an hour or so to get into my first game, and then it crashed as soon as I got in and I had to unplug my ps3 lol. Hopefully because this is only phase 1/3 it will be fixed in phase 2/3
Chaz Lewis 71	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:32:00 - [6] - Quote It's Tuesday. Servers are usually up on Thursday, which means people wouldn't attempt to sign in. It isn't a beta event. 75% of the players probably have no idea that the new build is live. And beside from the bugs and freezing, this build is great.
gangsta nachos Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 377	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:33:00 - [7] - Quote Build broke lockups and freezes
Wakko03 Better Hide R Die 134	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:36:00 - [8] - Quote Everybody is too busy making a 2 game designers, 1 cup youtube spoof, filming everyones reaction to playing this build for the first time.
Benjamin Hellios Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 259	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:44:00 - [9] - Quote I've had no problems whatsoever apart from some lag. Best build yet for me, hope it stays that way.
Aijul ZionTCD Legacy Rising 55	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:46:00 - [10] - Quote Probably due to... - Some people experiencing errors in downloading the patch - Not knowing the servers are up - Getting stuck on loading screens

Elrick Mercer 23	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:51:00 - [12] - Quote Played it. Not impressed will wait for next build.
Dethpuck00 Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 5	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:52:00 - [13] - Quote Havnt been able to download it. Tried on and off for 3 hours and keep getting error messages. Made it to 96% once.
Cresentblaze Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 3	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:54:00 - [14] - Quote Idk where everyone is, but yeah I saw a lot of empty servers too. Most of the skirmish matches I saw were full so I just went into a partially full lobby and people kept leaving, so I was just waiting in that room where everyone walks around in (I forget the name) but I was waiting so freaking long that by the time people were joining I had to get off so I didnt even get a chance to play. Hopefully servers are up tommorow so I can atleast try it out. Also just think how dissapointed I was when I couldnt play, my download speed is ridiculously slow so it recently just got finished at 10:15 pm and I started at 3:00 pm so that sucked, but oh well.
HowDidThatTaste Imperfects Negative-Feedback 2242	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:55:00 - [15] - Quote I'm stuck in some infinite loading screen hell, can only get in a game every 4 or 5 resets.

I just quit. Everything I was excited for in the build sucks, they introduced new premium items, and I can't get a game. Maybe next week.
Zander Rodriguez 41	Posted - 2012.08.15 02:57:00 - [17] - Quote I'm constantly getting error messages
Rorek IronBlood ZionTCD Legacy Rising 746	Posted - 2012.08.15 03:01:00 - [18] - Quote Well in the patch notes it did state that there may be errors across the board in several areas. Though it stated it would be a rare occurance. Hm. Hopefully in one of the two upcoming patches they will have fixed it. I do feel for everyone having issues in both downloading and installing the update, and those players whom are having issues in-game with problematic errors. However you must not forget that this is part of why all of us are here. To flesh out these errors, and problems now before release and final build. So while it sucks and I feel for you we all accepted to be guinea pigs.. More or less. That or free labor working testers. Your choice. Ha-ha. Sad when you look at it that way, eh?

I was debating buying a PS3 for this game to play it with friends (mostly EVE players), but after trying my beta key for a while on a friend's console I've decided I may just wait until six months after launch and see where things are at then.

Buying a console just for a single game is a bit "herp-derp" if you ask me. I can honestly see the forums lighting up in epic amounts crying and outrage when it comes to just such people. I remember when the SOCOM community did the same thing. "Oh I bought my console just for SOCOM!" Fools. If you did not like the build thats cool. Not many people like EVE Online. Oh well.

I should rephrase; this game would be the tipping point for my decision to buy a PS3. I've considered it for a while for numerous PS3-exclusive games, but haven't quite seen a new one that caught my attention yet. I wouldn't buy a console for a single game, especially one that's free-to-play and could potentially end up on PC in a year or two.
