Finding a squad is a must, and then there are technical problems still, but once you're in the game and coordinated with a squad it's really very enjoyable. There is the off-chance that I hop solo into a game and find someone on comms, and it can be fun to go around blowing up LAVs if people are spamming them, but it's most fun when you're on a team.
I wholeheartedly agree. The game is a keeper. I won't be tired of it in a year or two and see that things are getting better and as for the SP, finding the right group of guys who can use squad commands really improves the gains as well as the understanding of whats worth doing in the game. This is a team game not made for solo play so meet so people and have fun or don't. Even with glitches, talking on comms to someone who is having the same problem as you is just as fun as shooting because together problems can be troubleshooted and the ways around them can be figured out. Cheer and a happy everlife to all Dust players everywhere! |

In answer to the OP....No, I haven't enjoyed the beta at all despite hoping this would turn out to be special.
Personally, I think it's a shonky, poor imitation of Battlefield (and I don't even like Battlefield).
The core mechanics are very poor. Takes way too many bullets to get a kill, CQC usually descends into a silly strafe dance and the awful hit detection makes it a lottery as to who gets the kill. Weapons feel weak and sound terrible. I also really hate the ADS view.
Currently it's unplayable with tanks spawn camping at every turn.
Shame, because the idea here is something very special. It just doesn't have the mechanics that make the great shooters great.

Not having to much fun with this exact build but thats because it takes roughly 30 mins to successfully join a game.
That being said we should hold out till the big fix patch is out, that they are talking about on IRC. |

Not since they switched to Singularity and everything became broken. I'm just keeping an eye on the forum to see when or if things get fixed. Doesn't look like it'll be anytime SoonGäó. Maybe with the new build late september, who knows. |

Not really enjoying things. I remember things being more fun when I first joined the beta before the E3 build. I remember haviing fun in the old Communications Skirmish, I liked that there were preliminary objectives (defense relay A and B) that had to be destroyed before unlocking the part of the map with the main objectives to capture. The maps felt more fun because not only there was the sense of progression from unlocking parts of the map, but the maps themselves have all sorts of little pathways to travel in and created interesting gameplay areas. Now the maps are generally bland and way too open with little cover which is not great for fostering closer battles. The player count doesn't help, battles feel empty. |

E3 build was a vehicle spawn fest; that said, I had way more fun with that build, this is just one frustration after another. Whether its ninja heavies, market loading or having to reboot, this build slaps you in the face every turn sadly. |

I have the sensitivity turned down to absolute MINIMUM and I still feel like I'm shooting all over the place when I try to aim; it's far too twitchy. I even tried Aim Assist (which I try to avoid in games as much as possible).
I barely even noticed a difference when I turned sensitivity all the way down. Feels way too loose and twitchy.
I have the same problem with aiming down sight with the assault rifle, Its really jerky. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=32652&find=unread this feedback thread raises the issue. |

I hate tanks. It does remind me however that the overall KD/R actually IS a joke, because these kids that can't shoot for **** are going 20/0 in their matches, rofl. |

I've enjoyed the beta,but this build has really tested my patience more than I've been testing the beta.
The only good thing that I can honestly say that they improved on in this build is that they added a grouping system,and it's pretty janky itself.
I also like that map that's super huge with five control points to capture.That's pretty fun.
Other than that,I really don't understand changing the SP and ISK gains in this build.If they are going to release a new build every five to six weeks,there's absolutely no way possible that they are going to get a good sample size of feedback on certain items like dropships and proto gear,if only a handful of gamers with the time to sit around for 20 hour per day can acquire. |

Used to be enjoying the beta...
We used to hunt tanks down. Now if I see one in a match, why bother.
The AV nerf has screwed the infantry, surprised I havent seen more dropship pilots in game now since they have nothing to fear as well.
So between the above mentioned and all the connectivity issues this build is currently having, I'll be on GW2 for awhile, and I'm not a big fan of it.
Stabilize and equalize the game please, I would rather play Dust than anything on the market atm. But right now it's currently unplayable. |

No. I'm fairly certain at this point that Dust is going to fall flat on it's face. It's a sub par FPS as far as I'm concerned...
A) It has very clunky controls. Nothing works quite as smoothly as it should. It's just annoying and this sort of thing kills FPS's these days.
B) The fitting system is extremely weird for fitting a drop suit. For Eve, it's ok since it at least kind of makes sense. The skill system doesn't really fit either imo. This sort of thing shouldn't have been translated over from Eve, and not many FPS players are going to appreciate either. I honestly have no idea whose idea it was to I mean really? They even kept the circle for the fitting screen? Just obnoxious.
C) As it is, this game really does not have an MMO feel and thus a lot will be disappointed by it's MMO advertising. There's no free-roaming, nothing to explore, battles are fought only through matches, etc. etc. etc... It wont' really be an MMO until it lets players explore worlds (or at least facilities on different worlds), high sec home worlds, or different stations. It needs something though that makes it more free and feel like an mmo.
D) The graphics leave a lot to be desired. Even for the outdated standards for a PS3, they're pretty bad.
Dust needs a LOT of work before it's presentable.... |

I'm enjoying it ALOT!! it has flaws, but that's to be expected. I've been in the beta since pre-E3 build and its come a LONG way since then. all you nay Sayers who have only been playing a few weeks don't have a CLUE how much dust has improved over the months, you come in here all high and goddam mighty and bash the game AND ccp as if its the full frigging release, while at the same time spoiling it for the rest of us. dust is awesome, dust will continue to get more awesome-er, dust will be the greatest and best fpsmmo (in time). |

Like. Much. I think what I like about it is the depth hinted at so far. Game play is quite a bit wonky, but I'm marking that up to the beta build and on-going tests of balance and new stuff. Willing to give this game my time and effort to see where it goes. |

Wrong.
I've been playing for several months now.
No one is bashing CCP. This is the beta forum where they are openly asking for feedback about the game. Most people I see on this thread have posted constructive criticism.
There's no need to get defensive and upset about it. Every piece of feedback can help CCP produce a better game. |

I agree with everything except B. I actually like the fitting system. And as for D, I don't play Battlefield for the graphics, Dust is no different. |

Battlefield does look alot better though. It's a smoother experience and the core mechanics are fantastic. The gun on gun/moment to moment battles in Dust just don't come anywhere close. I say this and I don't really like Battlefield, mainly due to it's various faults and poor map design.
It's just a cold hard fact that you HAVE to offer core mechanics that match up to the big boys (CoD, BF3, CS, TF2) to compete.
I truly hope this can be turned around before official release. |

Lol dude I wasn't getting defensive or upset, there HAS been alot of negative threads bashing dust and ccp, my comment was simply aimed at those specific people (they know who they are). Constructive criticism is welcomed, criticism just to be bitter is not. I'm 100% in agreement with you dude, I was just getting in there first before the nay Sayers come in here ;) |
