If people want to feel like they are actually progressing at a good rate there might be something there. Feedback is good and should be heard esp is a bunch of people are saying it.
This is precisely the point of view that will kill this game. As of now, since we are on TQ, Dust isn't a separate game anymore, it is simply the FPS side of Eve. If you can't accept that, move on to the next arcadey FOTM FPS from CoD. Eve is a niche game, Dust would do well to be a niche game too. MAG was a niche FPS and (despite the lack of real support) it garnered a large, loyal following. If MAG was able to hold the attention of as many people as it did with the pitiful support, imagine the size of the Dust playerbase if they remain set apart in their niche as well as having the continous development cycle (like Eve).
It could be epic. It will be epic.
So long as CCP doesn't let the FPS monkeys kill Dust. |

This is true and I totally agree....Plus this is also a console based game...console gamers are on the norm not as patient and we definitely want to be awarded for our efforts. As I stated in another post. As a gamer when I reach my SP limit....I go to another game. Why bother playing if I'm not getting rewarded. You can't expect and want us to play when we are having all these restrictions put on us. I too love the idea of it taking 7 years to get every skill. Because I'm all about roles on the battlefield I love Dust 514 and have been preaching it to my gamer friends.. I would hate it for something like this to turn them off to this game and it's potential.
This post is a perfect example of the typical FPS monkey's thought process. They speak in broad strokes, painting themselves as the only important demographic and that without them, your game is doomed to failure. At least he is honest about his attention span, I'm willing to bet that this one is still in high school. He is so shortsighted that he doesn't even realize that skillpoints aren't the only reward for playing and yet he has the gall to speak of the potential of Dust.
Keep your CoD arcade out of my Dust. |

@Severus Smith
I don't view it as name calling, I view it as calling a spade a spade.
Your post is eloquently put.
Everyone should give this man a like. |

This is a beta and bad ideas needs to be called out. Forget EVE...this is Dust. A solely passive sp system will not work in a fps shooter. This daily cap blows....period
Eve and Dust are both on TQ, to ignore one is to ignore both.
