These problems won't go away at launch. If they do I'll gladly eat my just desserts. But the track record so far is clear as day. This game suffers from the exact same problems all games on the unreal engine suffer from when brought online.

once again you just assume these problems won't be fixed as if you have the power to see the future.

Do you know how hard it is to develop a game?

Cool story, bro.

I didn't ask anything of CCP. I'm not the one losing anything when this game launches, they are.

If you think for one second that these issues will sort themselves out by release, you're crazy. This game is dead on arrival.

I'd be curious to know if the guy with SSD is having all these issue, whoever that was should ask him about it.

IdTech3 would have been the optimal choice, in my opinion. If you want a smooth game, with a consistent feel to it. It's the same game engine used to make the Call of Duty 4 multiplayer engine, which has been used in everysingle Call of Duty game since 4.

Console FPS is a joke. This game was supposed to change everything. The entire genre of FPS has been ruined by these slow console shooters. This game was supposed to be different, and not because I had this image in my head of what this game was SUPPOSED to be.

The game as it currently stands is well designed, but it's always going to be flawed, and the TRUE issues with the game will NEVER be undone. Unreal Engine 3 is a BAD engine for online FPS. Especially on consoles. This game has atrocious graphics, horrible stuttering framerates, and borderline unacceptable rubber-banding. There are issues with ALL unreal engine games on consoles.

This was supposed to be an FPS from one of the best PC developers of ALL time. The only MMO developers that have managed to grow their MMO consistently every single year of its existence. They are using an engine notorious for being subpar for online games with FAR less detail/players/interactions than Dust 514. especially on consoles. To use this garbage engine on a game of THIS SCALE, is absolutely mind boggling. They chose a graphics showcase engine to deliver a mass scale, online FPS. If you don't see the problem with this, and the problems with the game in general. You can't be reasoned with. Period.

This game has every right to play as smoothly as Call of Duty, or any retail FPS it has the potential to be FAR superior to all of those games. Especially considering the fantastic addition of keyboard and mouse controls. This game deserves FAR better than Unreal 3. CCP will not be able to fix the issues with this game in time for launch, or ever. That's the nature of the beast.

This game will forever be left to the dustbin of failure, because of such a subpar engine choice.

If you can prove to me, beyond a shadow of a doubt that this game will run at AT LEAST 30 frames per second when it leaves beta and hits launch, I will shut my damn mouth. I waited 3 months to get into this beta. My god damn heart sank when I saw that damn unreal engine 3 logo. I immediately expected the worst, and my fears were confirmed within 10 seconds of playing this game. This is the biggest gaming related disappointment I've ever experienced. I am not even exaggerating.

How could a dev like CCP choose graphics over SMOOTH GAMEPLAY? It doesn't make any god damn sense, man.

Obviously this OP has already made up his mind and will only accept doom and gloom for DUST. It's like a Christian evangelical constantly denying evolution regardless of physical proof.

I'm through talking to this guy on this thread.

Nice way to throw in that jab...

Off topic, but there is still much debate and physical evidence AGAINST evolution, as much as proponents deny it.
While arguments can be very flawed especially in the fervent christian community, there are also very good arguments against it.

Personally, I believe in adaptation and natural selection, but find that that gaps between species and the whole concept of a common ansestor presents to o many holes in the theory.

In other words, I believe in a mix of the valid parts of the theory, and also my christian beliefs that support it. Labelin every christian that way os quite a stereotype and sweepin generalization.

I did not say all christians are like that. I just happen to notice that a certain sect of them understand the book of genesis as if it's meant to be read in literal terms (I'm Gnostic and I read it in allegorical or symbolic terms only). Perhaps it's the Orthodox Christians I was referring to.

Anyways, that's besides the point. I was merely using the Christian argument to point out how willfully ignorant the OP is at this moment. I can understand the many flaws with Dust 514, but that doesn't mean I'm obligated to see the whole thing as a glass that is half empty. I see the glass half full instead. But it's not just the amount of water in the container that matters. What about the chemical make up of the glass itself? It's shape maybe? Or how tall is that glass? Is the water being filled slowly or quickly? That's how I see Dust.

Unfortunately for the OP, he just decided to stick with seeing the glass as just destroyed or non-existent. We already provided our valid arguments regarding the Unreal Engine. So far the OP has already made up his mind. There is no convincing him.

But anyways, Back on topic.

As I mentioned before. You all are refuting him on the subject of the game bring a work in Progress, not on his basis of a problem with the game engine as a whole. Is there any arguments lut there to support or deny his assertions that Unreal Engine is limiting the game to a large extent?

The use of Unreal Engine 3 in a game of this magnitude on a CONSOLE is absolutely unacceptable. This game will ALWAYS be a sub-30 FPS, stuttering, rubberbanding, mess.
