And? Reviews are the opinions of the person or persons that are doing that review. It doesn't mean that everybody will follow it. And so what if the average person won't play it. EVE itself is a niche game and does quite well. To be honest, I think CCP prefers it that way. Even if DUST only gets 10,000 or less players overall when it comes down to it. It won't really matter because the number of corps and alliances in FW and Null are less then then the number of people that sit in high sec and mope around. |

No, but most companies make games based for the majority of players. Again, CCP may be just looking to get into that niche that EVE kind of has except with the PS3 crowd. There are some. |

Ok, so they pushed Dust and WoD back. They pushed WoD back due to the way they want to get it to work. That's an RPG, the game play and all that are not the issue there. It's due to stuff they wanted to do to carbon for it. And they pushed Dust back because it's not ready. If the launch build turns out bad. Then it turns out bad. EVE itself had a pretty bad launch. It manage to pick up quite well. There are worse games then Dust 514 that get launched from all those supposed to be AAA companies that end up being total trash. Yet for some reason people play them. While Dust still has issues right now, we don't know what CCP is doing. We're not looking over their should while they work. Who is to say the problems that are endemic at the time of the review and up to this current build will be present during launch? And since this isn't a game you buy, play and then buy the next edition that comes out with a bunch of high priced expansions or DLCs in between. Even if something is a little off, then they can always go back in and fix it. |

Problem #2)she says about vehicles,"there is a solid feel to the way they fire and maneuver".Really?!
The main thing that I would like to know is roughly how much time was put into Dust from the reviewer.Personally,I can't take any review of a game that requires a significant amount of game play seriously,if they haven't put in a decent amount of time into it.Most of the time,reviewers don't put that much time into games like this because it's not in their professional interest to do so.
There are some valid points about the shooting mechanics,but honestly,what's the point of reviewing a beta if you aren't going to do follow up reviews when a new build comes out?Seems a bit uninformed and just irresponsible as a reviewer to do so.
Well, yeah there is that. Someone that hops into a game and plays for 20 minutes isn't going to really have a good understanding of it. Even if they're comparing mechanics etc, to another game that they have reviewed, tested or played. |

Even Mag that I know you guys hate hearing about had a face lift a year later but every review was done and the games fate was judged. I dont even think any of the reviewers got to lvl 9 in Mag to play domination the biggest reason from all the reviews. Also after getting this doesnt work and this doesnt work , im sure the NDA played a important role in a follow up.
That's their fault for breaking the NDA and not following the rules. |
