I can't even justify this game anymore... It feels like a CoD clone more and more every day.
Is the plan to have an objective driven fps experience interwoven into an MMO economy and territorial warfare?
Or is DUST trying to skip the 20 kill streak it takes to call in drastically superior fire power and map dominance?
I never liked CoD. I played a LOT of mag, over 3 years worth.
The skirmish objectives are a pointless side obstacle to what is really a larger KDR fest than ambush.
That's all I really have to say anymore :\
I played several games tonight, every single one had 1 team launch an early LAV rush to the other side's first objective, and the KDR fest ensued. It has been dominance from the first minute of the game, and the remaining players simply snipe each other for the duration of the game timer...
Or they leave <_< I've been thrown into several battles where the map is already completely red, and the blue dots are all perched for the cold war snipe off... Something should be done about that... Why does it join me to a game that is over before I can even spawn once?
This game needs a complete overhaul. I'm really surprised this is what they've released with their open beta <_<
I play this game now only to grind sp (one of the most annoying grinds of all games I've played) for a future build where the game CCP has really been working on replaces current dust entirely...
Or maybe I'll just go back to strategy pvp games, and leave the cartoon arcade shooters to the CoD fans. |

Leave for a month or two, come back. You'll even have earned 3 million sp by then without playing so win/win. No one will blame you for getting tired of testing the watered down battle system that dust is going to use.
You do know this game is intended to play like savage right? Half fps half rts? That's nothing like COD.
This had better be VERY far from the final project... Because as it sits, it's more than laughable, it's in the "complete disregard" pile.
I am not exaggerating when I say "the only reason I'm playing now is to grind sp for future builds."
I played through the entire MAG beta, I know how beta games play. During the MAG beta the game's core concepts of being an strategic, team based, objective oriented shooter was clearly present. In DUST it isn't :\ |

So, Bye.
Door, swinging gate, blah, blah, blah and your bum.
Who said I was quitting?
I played mag for 3 years, including the full beta... I'm not going anywhere.
This is general discussion, and my general thoughts currently are the stale state of this game. Currently, it sucks.
Yeah it's a beta. That is such a cop out response though. You'd do better off not saying anything and not bumping my thread.
CCP currently has 2 game modes released, and that is all I have to judge this game on. One of them is basically a bad CoD clone, and the other is the worst of MAG game modes (interdiction) played out with some really bad spawning concepts that should have never left the drawing board.
CCP gotta get this game in line quick!! This is not a closed beta where there is an nda and everyone is expecting major changes. This is open beta, where the game is in full view of the public, and the system is expected to basically be in... I really don't think they should have moved to open beta yet. The game as is really makes me doubt that it will be any better. The mistakes in game design are glaring.
CCP may have made an amazing game world with EVE. I've had several of my friends cite their success with EVE as why I should have faith in DUST. Here is the problem though... They have basically only done EVE <_< A space mmo... Not an fps... And from the maps and game play it shows. My fear is mostly that CCP doesn't know what it needs to get into this game to break it apart from standard shooters. My fear is that they're just taking CoD, adding some extra clutter, and attaching it to an MMO.
No way am I quitting now. MAG had an excellent run, and DUST stands to pick up where MAG left off for persistent world fps. Without major system overhauls I wouldn't expect after release of open beta... It's gonna crash and burn.
I do not play DUST currently because I enjoy it. I play DUST currently only for the future, may it be so bright :\ |
