Cough, Welcome to dust 514 forums, we're all friendly here and are excited for you to join our open community. Please take no note of trolls in any threads as these are lies created by the caldari politicians to sway arguments to one side. Also take note the tram system has nothing wrong with it. Again warm welcome to our friendly neighborhood forums!! No, no Eterne don't ban me! I did what you said CCP advanced Bot overlord!

3 bird DUST University Ivy League 86	Posted - 2013.02.11 11:23:00 - [16] - Quote good question, I'm a new player (open beta) so I don't know exactly what happened during the closed beta but from the bits and pieces i have heard their were 3 groups of players in the closed beta, EvE Online players and 2 opposing factions from MAG. I'm sure there were many others but its seems these 3 made up the bulk of closed beta players. At the start these 3 player groups had different ideas about what Dust514 should be and it caused a fair amount of friction between the groups. But as the game progressed through the closed beta the game became something that they all could like, compromises were made and the end result was an awesome game that they all liked (thanks Closed beta guys) Eventually the 3 factions, having lost the friction caused by differences in opinion started to work together and grow closer as a community, they all were working towards the goal of having a kick ass game and to best do so they worked together instead of against each other. so by the end of the closed beta there was a relatively tight but small closed beta community. Cue Open Beta Open beta comes, floods of new player ignorant to the ways of dust meaning the high level gaming that the closed beta group had got used to was almost imposable to find. the new players were clueless at best and ignorant at worst. So the closed beta guys had a choice, help out the new guys, improving the quality of the game or abandon them and suffer the drop in quality of players. Some decided to help, some let us newberries suffer. But by and large the Closed Beta Players put in a lot of effort to get as much of the information that they had learned over the 6+ months of closed beta across to us newberries, these guys were amazing and ill always have a lot of respect for the guys that did this. So with all the Old players helping the new players the divide between old and new was dramatically shortened and the community grew closer still. now newberries have the information they can help fellow newberries and you end up with a community that is based on helping each other. It was about the same time that some of us new players realised that Dust will make or break on the strength of its community. So those of us that realised this and agreed with it went out into the community and tried to help people where ever we could. teach them, educate them hell just being friendly. we tried to make the community as friendly and as welcoming as we possibly could. and I like to think by and large we aren't doing to bad. TL:DR So, a community built on a common goal, spread by sharing and finished with just a little bit of kindness. As for why, to make the best fpsmmo the world has seen supported by the best community the fpsmmo community has seen. Now that's not to say its all love and roses, farm from it, bickering and heated debate are everywhere you look and as corps have more to do and EvE online starts to hire specific corps rifts will form in game and I don't doubt for a second people will rage, but the core of the community is a good one, and one that I and I like to think a lot of others are proud to be apart of. having re-read this before posting it iv realised it doesn't really answer the question of why, and I wasn't sure if I should post it at all. But id be interested in seeing how close i am, how many people agree disagree or just think I'm wrong. So like/post/troll away

Didn't realize CCP devs drunk posted too! Makes one feel right at home... Actually not drunk now. I am waaaay more loquacious and uninhibited when drunk and I tend to stay away from official forums because it would be very very bad for my continued job security. But if anyone is coming to FanFest, I'm sure you'll get the chance to see it.

Orin the Freak Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 334	Posted - 2013.02.11 11:41:00 - [19] - Quote TL:DR is TL:DR. also, everyone is so friendly because we all know and trust one another. there are no liars, thieves, or spies amongst us. You too can join our merry band, all we ask is for you to give one of us access to your corp wallet, friend! Fear not, it is only to ensure a mutual trust! if you believe that, then you've passed the first test! You are well on your way to disappoin--COUGH--err, true satisfaction! TL:DR - Trust no one. except me (thats how you do a TL:DR)
Beyond Identity D3LTA FORC3 Orion Empire 1	Posted - 2013.02.11 11:52:00 - [20] - Quote Friendly? I think someone is just used to playing COD with children... The game almost forces friendship, without a group of friend the game is more difficult and not as fun.

Ner'Zul Nexhawk Talos Incorporated 153	Posted - 2013.02.11 12:29:00 - [21] - Quote Beyond Identity wrote: Friendly? I think someone is just used to playing COD with children... The game almost forces friendship, without a group of friend the game is more difficult and not as fun. This pretty much sums it up. I'll add to that, however: When you are stabbed by a friend's needle for the first time, a true bond forms between you that lays the groundwork for your friendship. Considering that, many people have been stabbed here; thus, the network of friends grows and intersects with itself, creating the most friendliest community you see here on Dust forums. Of course, there are always tankers. Since they never get out of their tanks and don't get stabbed, we usually call them trolls. But they are a rarity.

Then watch the kindness spout forth! So please gripe authors, post away. I enjoy a good show with friends.

Keyser Soze VerbalKint IMPSwarm Negative-Feedback 77	Posted - 2013.02.11 18:19:00 - [30] - Quote Well actually in game the community is very helpful and relatively polite. But on these forums that a different story. Probably because the Devs see the posts and well we dont want the dumb COD scrubs trying to destroy what we worked to build. So when we see dumb posts we troll. When we are bored caused we capped out and theres nothing to do we troll. When we see scrublets getting a little too big for their britches we troll. And when see a troll we troll x infinity. Its just how we operate, but at the end of the day, its like a switch its turned on and its turned off at the end of the day we want a vibrant long lasting community just have to make sure that all the typical FPS tools who that think they now what they are talking about are "re-educated".

Link or you lie. Jk, but DUST514 as a community is pretty cool. It's chill yet competitive, trollish yet not personal. Beautiful thing imo.

Avinash Decker BetaMax. 25	Posted - 2013.02.11 20:14:00 - [35] - Quote On the forums not really all that much. I see plenty of drama and some members being a little too "passionate" . Yesterday I think I saw half a page filled with locked threads.
M3DIC 2U RED COLONIAL MARINES Covert Intervention 13	Posted - 2013.02.11 20:19:00 - [36] - Quote Think average player age and the transition of a lot of EVE players who understand what a metagame means beyond the adolescent CoD market, et al. Plus since it's still beta, not too many nonserious gamers would be interested I think. I anticipate a flood of newberries once final release is dumped but those will be waded through by the established corps and push off those not interested in something beyond a run and gun game. Success comes from teamwork as well more than I have ever seen in games and I've been doing FPS since Wolfenstein/DOOM. As the corps grow and more of the EVE universe taps into the potential, I think you'll see good newberries brought into the fold quickly, especially if willing to listen and learn, or at the least read up on the knowledge put out there. Otherwise they will just be frag fodder for those that do.

SGT MUZZA KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 3	Posted - 2013.02.11 21:35:00 - [38] - Quote Yeah the Dust community is by far one of the friendliest in gaming I believe. The amount of players I have met in game and had a good time with has way surpassed any other game on PS3 in such a short time. Everyone is willing to help you and we are all will to help back. I love it :) I believe in Being Nice and Spreading Positivity. The only way to evolve anything is to take the negatives and make them a positive monstor :D Hopefully it stays this way.....
