IGÇÖve waited to see how Dust develops before speaking on what I believe will make this one of the best games in history. Games come and go but the greats have always been remembered; Doom, Quake, World of Warcraft, 007, Contra, EVE, Halo, just to name a few. Dust has the ability to be the number one game to date. We are all very fortunate to be part of its creation, but as Playstation and CCP come together to provide us with this magnificent game, we must make sure that balance is kept. We must make sure that this game does not fold to the guys of individuals whom have the attention span of gnats.
Skill Points need to be rationed out thus forcing players to make more selective choices in the creation of the mercenary that will represent them and their play style. ISK must be limited as to create a sense of value in every suit, vehicle, gun and module that every individual loses. The limitations that keeps players attracted to their name sake is one of the most valuable assets in any video game, for once players are given the ability to change names without any loss of skills or assets they no longer need to be leery of decisions they make when speaking.
The beauty of EVE has always been those that tend to run their mouths reap what they sow . If this is to be a first person shooter which sets itself apart from the rest and desires to entice players who are one notch above all others, they must continue with EVEGÇÖs tradition of keeping players attached to their reputations. For those players that want to skill up within a few months, have unlimited access to weapons and gear, the ability to occasionally hit up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a, start, those players should go to Halo 4 or Call of Duty and remain there. For those select players looking to show their ability, looking to grow and develop, looking to form long lasting friendships, they should remain. For here they will be able to forge a reputation that will follow them throughout their Dust and EVE life span. CCP and Playstation, I beg you to not turn Dust 514 into another shelter for talentless non-gaming children. We already have one World of Warcraft in this world, we donGÇÖt need another. To all the great players IGÇÖve had the fortune of playing with and against, I look forward to seeing you on the battlefield, whether at my side or in my scope. For those talentless hacks that run their mouths, yet have absolutely nothing to show for it, I look forward to seeing you crumble as Dust expands. Let this game set itself apart from all others by being the game which all great players go to.
