So what, they will keep on playing BF3 and then wait for BF4 and then BF5 and pay money for all the DLC they shove their throat while we get full free game with free expansions and free everything forever. :) Leave them be, ignorance is bliss. |

So now you people are saying that the new players' dislike of this game is their own fault. Not the game's fault...not the developer's fault...but their own fault because they...failed to force themselves to enjoy the game?...
Are you guys for real? Like, does this sort of logic even exist outside of the internet? |

Battlefield players are use to relying on reaction time and only a slight variance in firepower to win a fire fight.
In this game you dont have to have reflexes nor mental acuity to win (as we can see with MANY of the "best" players) its more of an equipment war. You have higher armor so even though that player aims better and hits you more, you win because you can take more damage.
Battlefield players would eat dusties alive if the field were even and everyone was forced to wear the same outfitting. Thankfully for all of you MMO players its an equipment thing so you dont have to be good, just farm isk and be better equipped. The way dust works. |

What? MMO players arnt use to having to out wit someone as opposed to having to spec a character better. They know if they have a level 20 weapon that level 5 noob stands no chance.
In fps that level 5 noob can completely and utterly slaughter that level 20 if he reacts better and matches the reticle faster. Simple fact. |

I play bf3 and now dust514,you need a different skill set for both games,Im sure most of us have played cod or bf games or other fps's so saying battlefield players would eat dusties sounds like you think players that play dust never played any other game but. I do kinda kick some ass at this game btw and its cus I know how to roll with the game mechanics and not wish I was playing another game,if I want bf3 I go play bf3,right now I want dust514 and it rocks. |

I havn't touched bf3 since I started playing dust a year ago, bf3 just doesn't do it for me anymore. Dust is what bf3 SHOULD have been, frostbite 2 is just eye candy, it means nothing if the gameplay is not there. |

I would say the biggest difference between dust and most other FPS's is that in other FPS's you seee someone you both fire and instantly someone wins that little battle between you two. In dust you can fire at each other, shields go down, someone runs and you can actually get away to fight again. To me there is more thought in this game, and skill. If there were heavies in BF3 or COD they would always win because you couldn't hit them and hide for a second, let your shields recharge, then hit them again till they die. |

Screw that business.
I house face, all damn day, in an all militia shotgun scout fit, and tear **** up like it's no ones business (usually >_<) Also mind you, aside from a few crossover skills from my Heavy skills, I have no SP invested in anything shotgun or scout related.
As you say: Hate the player.

I agree overall, as a former BF2, 3 and BC player it takes a different set of skills to play both games, however you will always get people who say X is better then Y and Y is better than Z, personally for me, BF3 is far superior to COD (mainly becuase there is no team play or support aspect to COD) however Dust ticks the boxes of a support role, however I can get my kicks from kills as well from intelligent playing and not just i shot first and didnt encounter lag like COD.
People will love a certain game or item will always vehemently defend a game, its a fact.
Think of it like football (soccer for you wierd americans) I like one team, my father likes another one - i will always say my team is better than his - even though last time they met my team lost. |

Imo I think Dust takes more strategy than Bf3, the reason being is in bf3 you could go toe to toe with any player and never had to think about it. Everyone had the same amount of health. In Dust everyone is different, and you need to play accordingly.
My bf3 stats http://bf3stats.com/stats_ps3/Ix_Boomer_xI#ps3
My Dust K/d which means nothing is 5.2. What matters in these games is teamwork. Teamwork and strategy will beat people with better gear. Each game is different and like others said most of us have come from different shooters, it is completely incorrect to say bf3 players would eat Dust players alive, because they are different games. |

This is what people say when they aren't good at the game. The game mechanics aren't the same as the small handful of videogames you've played, and that's too much for you to handle. So instead, you just blow it off and claim it's because the game doesn't require skill.
You sound like a 12 year old that got beat at dodgeball. |

Who cares if a bunch of guys from Battlefield 3 trashtalk the game? Any real player who is interested about Dust shouldn't just blindly believe a single person and his opinion about the game, he should try the game himself or in the very least study from several sources. |

In most fps games you play fps. In dust you play fps, gearing up and metagame. Gearing up will happen in the time it takes you to master the fps. Metagame requires some thought: who do you fight for, in what way do you compete, and what is your chosen path to greatness. |

In that case, explain how I had a positive K/D and a positive W/L ratios while playing alone and never using anything better than Standard gear on a brand-new alt just before the reset when everyone was still in Proto gear?
Explain how I killed a Gunnlogi and three Sagas with an all-Militia fitted Sica?
Explain how the good players win when competing against other players in good gear?
GOOD players in DUST 514 are good. EXPERIENCED players aren't necessarily GOOD players. And good players in BF/CoD/Resistance/Halo/that other shooter you like aren't necessarily good players in DUST 514.
There are several possible reasons for someone to not enjoy the game.
1. They don't like shooters. 2. They legitimately don't like DUST 514 as a concept or dislike important elements of its execution. 3. They somehow have the impression that this is another twitch shooter, and aren't willing to adapt to something different. 4. They think the SP/Gear gap breaks the game. 5. They're disappointed in the graphics or other elements of the game which are still being worked on.
Obviously, 1 and 2 are fine. Some people just aren't going to like DUST 514 because it isn't the right game for them. The problem is in 3 - 5. These causes, broad as they are, have seen a LOT of players coming in and basically using these "problems" as a counter to their inability to perform. It pretty much is a case of "I suck at the game so it's bad" in some ways - but not necessarily that simple.
The biggest consideration is actually POSITIONING, not SP, gear or even the combination of the two. Being in the right place at the right time makes MUCH more difference than what you're wearing AND how long you've been playing combined. |

Meh, i played BF3 allot and there i end up top 1 pretty much each game, walking trough 4-5 people without much issue, its no different in Dust where i can still walk trough 4-5 people the same way (Raven Suit, rest all cheap Militia parts). The equipment factor works for both parties involved.
Quote:Battlefield players are use to relying on reaction time and only a slight variance in firepower
Should change that to, Battlefield players are use to relying on their closet cheats & hacks to win a fight, because PC shooters are infested with cheaters of all kinds, Wallhacks being the hardest ones to root out.
If anyone played War Z recently, at some point it had 70% of its playerbase cheating, including 4 of my friends, i took a break until they got banned, so i wonder if they were legit in APB R or COD because they dont want to touch this console shooter.
My guess is they cant cheat here, so they dont wanna play it. |

This is not a good game right now, stop tryingh to get hardened bf3 players to play this under developed beta. That one dude said it: this is pre alpha halo meets unreal tournament still. I hope it changes but you better face the truth if you want the game to get better |

Blinded by rampant fanboyism perhaps.
If Dust had the same core game-play as BF3 (with it's own flavour) it'd be unstoppable.

Erm wtf are you talking about. I regulary own heavys in my scout/assault fit, not though more ehp but though skill. Also IT'S AN OPEN BETA GAME AND IT'S FREE FFS!! Most of you whiners think that this is the finished product. IT ISN'T! not by far.
Really, if your that annoyed with it, go back to BF3/COD. I'm sure the 100's of -ú or $ will be worth it. |

For all you bleating sheep who think Dust is the perfect game, do yourselves a favour.
Just for a minute, ONE minute, be objective. I implore you, I'm not denying that you can have fun with Dust.
Look up a HD video of BF3, Planetside 2, Tribes Ascend or any other top level shooter on YouTube.
Listen to the sound - listen to how much it adds to the atmosphere.
Look at the graphics - smooth frame-rate = responsive controls.
Look at the level of polish the game engine has in general. How professional things look, how cohesive an experience it all is.
That's the level that Dust has to get to. It's not there right now. It's as simple as that. That's why your buddies are trashing it. Because they are used to polish and quality.
Dust should probably still be in closed beta in its current state. |

You're right, it is a beta, which is exactly why us "whiners" continue to bring up the issues with the game (because we want it to be better) which others ignore because they believe Dust is currently great, which it isn't. Dust is not currently on par with shooters like BF. Once everyone recognizes that and stops bickering, then maybe we can work together to make it better than those other games. |

Yes, this is exactly the point, and I can't agree with it enough. Dust needs to be improved. We who criticize it realize it's a beta, but that's the point, we're trying to make it better. |

That's just 4 games in the last year or so. There's more. All of those games have more technical polish that Dust currently does.

Dust should probably still be in closed beta in its current state.
^^^ This.
Dust should still be in closed beta they have been developing it for how many years now? I remember watching alpha footage back in 2010. While the game is slightly better for an open beta it's not where it should be. |

Its a generalisation, personal experience of some people I have encountered. (edit) the expecatation then about the sprites and the expectation of good 3d graphics and physics engine remains the same on a base level.
Section 8 *could* have been awesome, the drop mechanic was fantastic.
I'm not saying Dust doesnt require work, it does - there are a whole list of things that need fixing and implementing etc etc.
I actually wrote in a post that didnt get posted thanks to a forum bug at how bad the beta for Tribes:Ascend was, which has had a big turn around since launch and HiRez just keep going - hopefully this is a path that CCP will follow with Dust |

IT. WASN'T. READY.
It certainly didn't have the level of polish DUST already has - and that lasted until AFTER release. DUST is still in beta. There are some things where "it's a beta" doesn't cut it, but this is an area where it's relevant.
Is DUST ready for release? No. Is it ready for open beta? Yes.
Personally, I find DUST more enjoyable than Battlefield 3. I'm not saying it's as polished. I'm not saying it's ready for release. I'm not saying that the current state of DUST is better than (or even as good as) BF3. But I still enjoy it more. Different games - sometimes even different games in the same genre - appeal to different people. |

Section 8 was a lot of fun. It's a real shame that game died off so quickly. I think it would have been the perfect template for Dust. It was tactical, futuristic and as you said, had a brilliant spawn mechanic.
Some betas are rough, some are very polished. Hawken for instance (in open beta) is very polished at the moment.
I wish CCP would communicate more often. It's so vague as to what the plan is, or where Dust is headed. |

Heh, we agree on something then! I had S8 on pre order for weeks, there was nothing more satisfying than dropping and causing havoc, even better dropkilling someone - that was satisfying.
Hawken is very polished indeed, shame it cripples my PC and we all know CCP have never been the best of communicators.
Dust suits a particular crowd, it wont suit every body. |

I did see it and it was a disaster. Thus, the servers are empty. That's my point. CCP are playing a dangerous game here. Open beta or not, FPS are very flaky these days. They jump from game to game quickly and if it doesn't reach expectations, then it's dead. |

We shall see, i remember the CoD:WaW beta *shudders*
tbh there is at least a 6 month development period beore release, alot cna change in 6 months we just need to wait and see, i'll probably still be here in that 6 months, this game ticks alot of boxes for me, just wish that more people played as a team :D |

Battlefield players would eat dusties alive if the field were even and everyone was forced to wear the same outfitting. Thankfully for all of you MMO players its an equipment thing so you dont have to be good, just farm isk and be better equipped. The way dust works.
LOL seeing as gear doesnt give u a big advantage like before ur wrong unless its a militia/standard vs proto fight
so yea buddy nice try but skill actually plays the biggest role in the game not gear
and tbqh ive seen many bf players come on dust and get wrecked and the biggest complaint from those peeps are usually the amount of shots it takes to drop someone. BF isnt a strafe shooter its a positional, twitch shooter so its usually a 1st-see-wins-gunfight sorta deal. U'd be surprised how many players suck at trackin a strafing target
now if u said KZ/Resistance/Halo players id fully agree with u because those games arent just all position/twitch based but require gun skill and strafing skill
The one advantage id say BF players have is vehicles and incorporating vehicles into proper teamplay since BF clan matches give u the closet thing to a DUST corp battle atm........just for them to get used to the vehicle controls. |

It's like discussing something with a cardboard box.
You don't get it, do you? I understand that it's a work in progress, Joe Gamer who plays a few shooters here and there doesn't care. He wants it to be as good as his favorite shooter NOW. If it isn't he won't try it again.
That's the point of this thread. We're discussing why people think Dust is a third rate, crappy shooter. Those are the reasons. It's because people expect a certain level of polish and Dust doesn't have it.
If you can't see the constructive criticism in that alone for CCP, there's nothing I can do to help you.

I regulary own heavys in my scout/assault fit, not though more ehp but though skill. Also IT'S AN OPEN BETA GAME AND IT'S FREE FFS!! Most of you whiners think that this is the finished product. IT ISN'T! not by far. Really, if your that annoyed with it, go back to BF3/COD. I'm sure the 100's of -ú or $ will be worth it. You're right, it is a beta, which is exactly why us "whiners" continue to bring up the issues with the game (because we want it to be better) which others ignore because they believe Dust is currently great, which it isn't. Dust is not currently on par with shooters like BF. Once everyone recognizes that and stops bickering, then maybe we can work together to make it better than those other games.
Agreed, if more people compared Dust 514's finished aspects with known aspects then maybe just maybe logic would reign supreme.
Until that day everyone will continue to compare the entirety that is the unfinished project of dust with the completeness of every other game.
though I can promise you none of those self same people would ever make it as contractors or anyone else whose job is to look at something that needs to be built and say.

You gotta admit- fully destructible env is pretty amazing. I like dust because of its Rpg elements. I like bf3 cause of its realism elements. I like both because of their tactical elements.

From reading the battle log it sounds to me like those idiots talk about dust like this is a full version of the game but what they dont understand that this is a true beta, they are used too betas being a early versions of full games and thats coming from a console beta player that has played many console betas |

Also for the sound complainers:
Quote:Hi, CCP Earworm, sound programmer for Dust, here.
Later this week we're content streaming a lot of new sounds, affecting everything from the music to the explosions to the firing sounds of many different weapons. These changes are a big step to finishing the sound and setting the mood we want.
The LAR is one sound that we've constantly iterated on since it's the bread and butter of the dust battlefield. We've gone through a ton of versions to find the right fit for the LAR, and the new version coming in this week (along with all the sweeping changes in overall sound) takes into account what you guys have been talking about here.
Thanks for all the comments!
And if the graphics are constantly updating in EVE, I would assume the same for Dust. |

lol i dont need your help nor did i ask for it. i was giving you a reason to play and maybe along the way your input will make this game great. Just coming here with the "it;s crap so why bother" line is couter-productive. CCP actually listen to the player base. You try going to EA with your suggestions on how the game could be better lol wake up. Ok so its not polished and theres a ton of work to be done but thou our efforts it WILL BE BETTER! |

Are you guys for real? Like, does this sort of logic even exist outside of the internet? You do have a point, but the situation we're looking at here is bad PR about DUST, a large part of which is based on total ignorance.
There are many valid reasons to criticize DUST, however, when peeps are so friggin' dense that they don't realize you can modify your dropsuit fittings or train skills and then publicly trash the product then yes there is a problem, and peeps who care about the success of DUST should be out there fighting the mouthbreathers when they can. And if you read some of those reviews, from individuals AND the press, it's obvious that they spent an hour or two with the game, failed the intelligence test, and are now out there spewing their gems of wisdom to the world.
Personally, i don't give a kittenfart, because i think that the success of DUST is virtually guaranteed at this point(yes, we all, Devs and testers, have a kittenload of work to do still), and I don't want the mouthbreathers anywhere near this game - there's lots of FPSs out there for them already.
Is it their fault? I dunno, but I sure as hell don't want them. Maybe they've got friends who will hold their hand and explain the game to them some day and they'll come back into New Eden so the rest of us can prey on them.
EDIT: Here's a perfect example. Guys like Washlee will make DUST a success through word of mouth and a willingness to interpret the game for other peeps: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=503704#post503704

I wish I understood what is so complex about Dust compared to any other shooter.
When it gets down to the nitty gritty, Skirmish mode is just a carbon copy of Battlefield's Conquest mode.
The economy and drop suit customization aren't especially deep or complex at all.
In game, you capture objectives and pew pew at the other team.
The problem Dust has is that it's technically a good distance behind the others.
I hope this supposed new build will address some of those complaints. |

Dust is what bf3 SHOULD have been, frostbite 2 is just eye candy, it means nothing if the gameplay is not there. Are you really saying that Dust has better gameplay than BF3? Are you dumb or just plain stupid?!
I guess I'm just not a bf3 fanboy as much as you are boyo. Do I think dust looks better? No not right now, but i started gaming on NES and digital game watches back in the early 80's so graphics don't bother me. As for gameplay, yes I do think dust has better gameplay than bf3, and that's to be expected because a % of ex dice are employed by ccp, so put those two together and you get something like dust (gameplay similar to bf 2142, the best bf in my book), the deep skill system that takes brains to work out, large scale maps, good teamwork, FREE expansion packs (keep your $15 four map 'expansions' dice, we get ours for nada/zip/zero/nowt/nil/nothin. Also dust has a more mature player base (majority is 21+) with no annoying little brats with Mickey Mouse voices who think cod was the first ever fps. The forums are a place people enjoy, as opposed to the bf3 forums where you get cyber a$$ raped if your kdr is not good or your not a premium player. In dust we are all equal, we all play the game, we enjoy the game, and we don't give a damn about kdr.
So I think the above are just a FEW reasons why dust is better than bf3 |

Most of us who really, really like DUST enjoy the fact that you can play it without double dosing on ritalin while taking a hit of meth.
DUST seems to be geared for adults, not hyperactive fifteen year olds. The very idea is just effing magical. |

Anyway, Space Invaders fans have a number of options...
1. Whinge and moan. It doesn't change anything, but it makes them feel better. 2. Sulk in a corner. 3. Trashtalk PacMan to get revenge. 4. Help the game developers improve the game, by finding bugs and providing constructive criticism. 5. Educating the community; helping new players, posting positive comments to counter negative ones, etc. |

When it gets down to the nitty gritty, Skirmish mode is just a carbon copy of Battlefield's Conquest mode.
The economy and drop suit customization aren't especially deep or complex at all.
In game, you capture objectives and pew pew at the other team.
The problem Dust has is that it's technically a good distance behind the others.
I hope this supposed new build will address some of those complaints.
You do know that as we expand the economy is going to get more complex right...?
Lol we can't even sale equipment yet so yeah the "economy" is nonexistent right now.
Also. This thread is full of butt hurt from other people getting butt hurt about other people being butt hurt.
Some people like the game, others don't. Stop crying over spilled milk. |

So you are stupid and a Dust fanboy. Because if you think Dust plays better than BF3 something is totally wrong with.

In this game you dont have to have reflexes nor mental acuity to win (as we can see with MANY of the "best" players) its more of an equipment war. You have higher armor so even though that player aims better and hits you more, you win because you can take more damage.
Battlefield players would eat dusties alive if the field were even and everyone was forced to wear the same outfitting. Thankfully for all of you MMO players its an equipment thing so you dont have to be good, just farm isk and be better equipped. The way dust works.
Wait, so what you're saying is that if a player is a battle field 3 player there is some hidden code that prevents them from getting a few of the better items?
And that no one that has ever played battlefield 3 was allowed into the dust beta until it went open beta and by that time they were all at a disadvantage because the game was full of WoW Isk farmers that had already won, and the BF 3 players just couldn't compete so they took their toys and went home?
This is funny tuff talk you do. It is like when you go into a bar, etc. get tanked and get in a scuffle, and you're all like, "I could of taken that guy. I could have. If he wasn't such kitten." Yeah, Battlefield 3 players could have won DUST but DUST was stupid."
I am slow and understand the gear. Players with fast reaction time will wipe the floor with me in a one on one no matter how much proto gear I am dragging around the field. I have to use my mental acuity to avoid any sort of 1 v 1 whenever possible. I get most of my kills by using cover and sometimes waiting for back up. Simple as that.
There is nothing to prevent any gamer from jumping into DUST 514 and using their particular talents to prevail. Except lack of effort. This game tends to give back what you put into it.
If all you invest in the game is, "Pfft that was suck stupid poop" That is what you will get out of it.
Edit* None of the above should be taken as being directed at any Battlefield 3 players. But at the tuff guy talk in the quoted post which was annoying. Was that poster an official Battlefield 3 rep? Do they speak for all Battle field 3 players everywhere? Who knows. But I am sure that people who play Battlefield 3, just like with any game, are a lot more diverse and a lot less stereotypical than described in the quoted post. |

I usually never post, but since this thread is about Battlefield 3 and Dust 514 I will give an opinion. The first mistake the poster of this thread made was going to battlelog and looking for intelligent or positive feedback on Dust 514. You will find mostly egotistical jerks, chronic complainers, or trolls on that forum.
I come from the battlefield series, so I am familiar with Battlefield 3 and Bad Company 2. My Battlefield 3 account is Muramasa91 if youGÇÖre curious about my stats. I see you guys have been arguing over the differences between Dust 514 and BF3. ItGÇÖs hard to compare them because they are dramatically different games. Dust 514 has shields and armor; whereas Battlefield 3 relies on a 100% HP bar. One relies more on strategy the other on reflexes. I noticed no one has talked about the suppression mechanics in BF3. This is a key difference between the two games. The suppression mechanics blur your screen and increase the recoil. Imagine how much suppression a HMG could produce? Another difference is the maximum amount of people allowed in a match. BF3 can only have 24 people total; whereas Dust 514 has 32 people already and plans to have more soon. The number of people allowed in a game is significant because in BF3 is easy to play by yourself, but in Dust 514 itGÇÖs hard as hell. In BF3 I could easily wander off on my own and dominate matches, but in Dust 514 I get annihilated if I wander away from my squad.
I also see you guys are comparing the developers of BF3 and Dust 514. At times I have been frustrated with the lack of content that CCP has given us and they have been deserving of criticism, but I have to laugh at some of the idiots in this thread touting DICE as the standard. Keep in mind when you compare the two that DICE has had multiple games under its belt; whereas with CCP this is their first attempt at a first person shooter. I have seen some say that BF3 has better graphics which is true, but does that really make DICE superior to CCP? Since we are discussing some of the problems with Dust 514 allow me to show you some of the problems that BF3 has had.
BF3 literally has a level called Operation Firestorm that has areas where your character can trip and die. At least with Dust 514 I donGÇÖt have to worry about stepping into the wrong area and dying instantly because of crappy level development. BF3 boasted about having the Frostbite 2 engine which meant better destruction graphics, but anyone that played Bad Company 2 could tell you that itGÇÖs not even close to the first Frostbite. One of the biggest problems in BF3 is weapon balance. BF3 has a lazy weapon model where assault rifles or guns with high rate of fire dominate. There is actual variety in Dust 514 when it comes to weapons and you actually do have disadvantages with your preferred choice of weapon. This quality is non-existent in BF3 because the best guns can be used to dominate at all ranges. The talk of OP weapons in Dust makes me laugh because the OP weaponry in BF3 was far worse. Look up on you tube MAVkilling, UDartBro, and USAS with Frags for BF3 and tell me if that isnGÇÖt OP. The worst part is that if you wanted to give direct feedback on BF3 to developers you had to go to some dopes twitter account to do it. At least CCP communicates with us through the forums when they want feedback. I could list more, but this post is longer than I expected.
I want to make clear that BF3 is a fun game and it does have its pros. But, I have to debunk this myth that BF3 is a level of quality that Dust 514 canGÇÖt reach.

That's your only response? You can't do better than that? Why don't you justify why bf3 is the alpha fps over dust? And try not to include the fact we are still in beta as a means to be critical to dust.

I played BF3 for a Long time. I got great at it, even bought the expansions. But then the patches can in. They completely f***ed the game up. Every weapon has gotten a nerf, there is little to no teamwork involved and the game is pretty much another mindless shooter. They took out the importance of vehicles and made them completely useless, they completely screwed up the guns, and now it's just a cash in.
Regis, you probably haven't played BF2, because if you had, you'd know how much crappier BF3 is in comparison. Fancy graphics can't fix up broken game play. Dust actually has a chance because the devs are changing game play, individual suits matter, but can't change the battle completely, and vehicles play important roles. And it's still beta.
Sure, the animations and fluidity could use some work, but that's why it's in beta. Also, Battlefield will be $60 for the same thing every year, classic EA, while Dust will keep growing with optional AUR purchases. |

Good times. But I had to laugh at a not so secret love affair with DUST 514
"Oh my god this game sucks so hard and I should know i have been playing it every day since I got in to the beta a year ago."
Meanwhile at the DUST gang's favorite haunt, DUST clubhouse:
"Hey, I hear the BF 3 gang is talking some smack! let's start something!"
And there's always that one kid:
"Guys, guys, the DUST gang wants to start something! You should hear what they are saying over at the DUST clubhouse! Guys! Guys! And I know they are the worst gang ever! I hang out with them all the time! GuysGǪ?" |

I play Battelfield3, and Dust514. I have played Dust514 for seven months now, and honestly? Both are good games. One is a finished product though, and the other is a game in progress. That said they are two widely different titles with much different objectives, and play styles. You could not, and should not compare Dust514 to any other game in all honesty; just as you should not base any other game against Dust514.
Just my opinion, but figures I'd throw it out there. |

Dust514 wont ship in a perfect state, that is for sure.
But, there are 2 important factors. CCP learned a lot how to develop a game. The stance and strategy they adopted in last 2 years is really amazing. Another thing is that CCP really cares and listens to their player base.
When u combine those 2 facts, in no time DUST514 will reach the polish of all other games, but all other games will never reach the tactical levels, metagame, economy etc. that DUST 514 will have.
So in 1-2 years after the release, we will see masses of new players coming to our way. And we will have a big advantage, not SP advantage, that really doesn't meter in games like this. We will have the advantage of ropes and strings being in our hands ;)
So to all those haters. Bare with DUST 514, throw CCP some money here and there and in no time the FPS world community will have a perfect FPS. |

I'll start this post off by stating that I absolutely love the Battlefield games. Loved BFBC2 and still play BF3, although not as much due to playing Dust and a crappy schedule. That being said there are so many factors that go into this decision on whether Dust is a good game or not that it is almost pointless to argue it. I think a lot of it seriously boils down to people taking the time to recognize key differences, display constructive criticism where appropriate, and be aware of the state of each game. One of the biggest factors we are facing here is a larger community base on the battlelog website, which statistically will be dominated by younger kids, and as such we will see a lack of understanding, or time spent evaluating everything that we know about the games and comparing them.
With all that being said does the blame fall on CCP, the player, or the community? I honestly believe, in my humble opinion, that it falls on The Player -> CCP -> Community. I say this because CCP has a goal, and they know what it is. They know whether or not they will ever be able to pull off the polish that a game like BF3 has, or whether that is out of their reach. I do not however expect them to admit that openly because what company would? I think as BETA testers however we can use the game that we have, presenting it as fact, that CCP has a different goal in mind than say DICE does with BF3. I say this in the same way that I would by stating that Zipper had a different goal in mind with MAG then DICE did with BFBC2 and Zipper provided that as reasoning behind why MAG would never look as good as Battlefield, while expressing they offered deeper gameplay.
I think the individual player holds the most responsibility in not being ADD with their decision making process and the over abundance of FPS games we have and that they need to evaluate each game on its own merits. CCP on the other hand has not expressed that goal as of yet to my knowledge, but its apparent by the total number of players said to be in each match, the map sizes, and the level of character developement that it won't be as polished as Battlefield is, there just aren't enough system resources to do it, not on a console anyway. Do I think we have seen the final level of polish? Absolutely not and I think CCP will still surprise us with some eye candy, but I have no dreams of it being Battlefield.
As a community we need to accept our responsibility of providing constructive criticism in a way that helps CCP better reach their goals, our expectations, and to also be helpful in teaching new players that this game is very different from a typical FPS. Lets remember key issues:
1. DICE has NUMEROUS titles and experience working with consoles under their belt, let alone the PS3 architecture which is notorious for not being an easy developement platform.
2. CCP is working on their first console title, their first FPS, which is on that difficult to program platform. Go big or go home seems to fit here.
3. BF3 on consoles supports a max of 24 players in matches. Dust 514 is already above this. MAG was far above this and had very acceptable graphics, albeit not the "standard" of today's FPS games.
4. Graphics are not everything. Remember gameplay.
5. Do not forget that the behind the gameplay "play" , as in meta-game of Eve/Dust politics, is also a huge draw to this gaming and its universe. It will only attract certain types of people.
6. We are still in a BETA and because of that we must assume that there are more builds coming, more updates coming, and until then no real judgement can be made. Anyone who was in the BF3 BETA probably recalls how absolutely terrible that was. Being a Battlefield fan I nearly canceled my pre-order and wrote DICE a scathing email but thankfully they fixed the vast majority of those problems and I believe CCP will here as well.
7. Be honest with our expectations with whats available.
8. Have fun. Because if your not, then whats the point.
At any rate I think that Dust 514 has really good potential. It is definately not as smooth as it should be, reviving people or attempting to pisses me off, my character feels "stiff" when I navigate the terrain, the terrain is bleak and boring, and the sound isn't as involving as Battlefield 3. But its new and its in BETA. I'll reserve judgement until CCP says "this is it".
Now, concerning these graphics, lets party like its 1999 :) |

All this has not sense. Anyone will like more anything different. That's how the universe works. So simple. I love brunettes girls, you blondies. I like Dust 514, you like Battlefield 3. There is nothing wrong about it. The problem is that people wants to "impose" what they want., just like religions. "If you don't belive in what I said, you will go straight to the hell". "If you like Battlefield, you like to play newbies games and waste your money". "If you like Dust 514, you like to waste your time because there will be always someone with more SP or something like that".
This is a big "LOL" (and I don't know what it's mean because I'm from Argentina and I talk spanish, but a think it's a laugh). Just learn how to coexist. That's the key, the secret. COEXIST.
Sorry for the english. See you |

Yeah bf3 is a finished product, and they're still trying to fix things with patches etc, its still broke after over a year. Had they have released a proper beta instead of a demo with beta label then it may be decent.

I played BF3 for a long time and Bad Company 2 for an even longer time before that. They're good games, though BC2 was better than BF3, but they are nothing like DUST. I don't even begin to compare them because they are two completely different games going after different audiences. DUST if for someone who wants MMO game play in a FPS. BF3 wants the players that want absolutely nothing to do with persistence.
DUST will probably be my shooter until it closes down. I think it's very much like EVE in the sense that once you're hooked, they pretty much have you forever. Which is something I don't think many other shooters have going for them. |
