Dust is weak in those aspects and those are the things that I can measure and comment and that are undeniable.
Most of my comments are about things that are purely technical!
Unresponsive controls = technical.
Poor animation = technical.
Weightless weapons = technical, because it'a matter of programming
Poor graphic = technical.
Poor net code = technical.
Poor, unclear, badly organized UI = technical.
Barren empty maps =tehcnical.
The only non technical thighs I disagree on are stats & lack of sandbox elements.
Those are design choice and I have explained many times why for me they are not right for a FPS like Dust.
/insert "Not sure if trolling or serious" meme
So, aside from technical issues, which are secondary to making sure this game works code-wise and doesn't break Tranquility ( at least that's what I'd think you'd want if a major selling point in your marketing is tieing into EVE) you are peeved about skills effecting damage/range/capability and red zones. . . Templar, they way you go on about it, I'd think one of the Devs touched you inappropriately.
Oh that and the "pay to talk outside of battle."
EVE Voice, which I've used once in my EVE time, is paid for by the subscription price of EVE. How would you propose CCP pay for the bandwidth to support voice chat outside of a fight in DUST. Internets cost money and where is the money for that bandwidth going to come from? Obviously not from subscriptions or game purchases in F2P. That means Aurum items and services. . .
Jesus, the game's not even out of beta and there's a whole forum of bittervets already, hurf blurfing about how fail CCP is, and butt hurt CCP won't listen to their holy and unquestionable ex cathedra pronouncements on game design.
You know what people? Here's a link. It's to CCP's employment openings. They are hiring experienced game designers, programmers, and artists. I got a buddy who just got picked up as a web designer and is moving to Rek.
If you, like me, don't meet the qualifications for game designer etc, then state your piece and then shut you cake holes.
If it's so bad, leave. If you don't leave, even though the "game is horrible and bound to fail herp de derp" then you are just trolling. |
