if they lift the NDA they should probably do a SP/ISK wipe.
Next build being show worthy sounds nice, wonder if we'll get the map they show for the"first offical DUST trailer" someone linked on youtube. that little court yard looks nice :) |

[question] any chance of giving Mass Drivers a better aiming reticule?... like one that shows where the grenade will land +/-10%... something that moves along the ground like a small targeting square, that can follow terrain elevation, allowing for less "intuitive" use of the Mass Driver. |

What are we here for then?
I was told that CCP was reading here but it's clear that IRC comes first.
data.
if a games company based all its decisions on player opinion/feedback... games would be see-saws of continual over nerf/over buff cycles.
by playing the game you are providing data from everything that you do, every shot fired, every shot missed, number of times killed by X weapon etc.
CCP has a game plan, but they need to make sure that what they are trying to do will actually work. Sometimes that will mean buffing SP gains and dropping item costs so that they can get data on top end fittings and builds.
Sometimes it means nerfing the hell out of something so that they can reach for a middle ground between something being OP and underpowered. The alternative is to shift numbers by tiny increments till you "think" you've reached a balance. |

I'm guessing that what seems to be upsetting some people is that the DEVs don't post everything to do with DUST onto the DUST forums.
I think i really like this game, and until it is released(and therefore considered somewhat finished) i'd like to be able to hear more about what is being planed for this game, and about any changes that may find their way into it.
As a beta tester, i'd like to think that my input is more then as a mere data producing automaton, that the forums are being read by CCP employees and the collective observations of the beta testers taken into account.
really what would alleviate some of this concern, would be more DEV responses and posts.
but then i've seen in other games forums how often such posts can be taken out of context, can take on a life of their own in a chinese whispers kind of way. People get worked up over things that people are saying that the DEVs said were going to be done or undone, and in reality DEVs are usually quite cryptic about changes that Might get made.
The DEVs also have seen how things get out of control, so though they may want to say more then they do, they just cannot.
This is usually why a lot of what players learn, doesn't always come from the games forums, but from other sites that deal with reviews or publicity. Doing things this way allows the DEVs to get information out to its players, in a round about way, but also to people who aren't playing the game, so that they can become interested in it.
In the end, as long as I can be sure that CCP employees are reading these forums and passing along information, I can be happy that my part in this games creation is valid.
I know that CCP has already got planned how this game should be, I am just here to test the games' systems, and that eventually all the systems will get compiled into one program, and that the game will be released when that happens. |
