The only way to fix AFK farming is to change the SP system. Currently SP is passively gained for participating in battle. It has little to do with how you actually perform in battle. SP should be merit based off of how you perform in battle versus just passively participating.

never heard that about EVE, so if Dust is an EvE styled shooter, why should it get boring? With all this awesome sandbox stuff and huge battles to attack or defend whole planetary infastructures?
The only reason why it gets boring is because there is nothing as promised till know.

Oh and that there will also be no aurum reset just adds another minus to the list.
I really like Dust but its just a shame that it rots and rots with no changes.

Why is it a shame there isn't going to be another Aurum reset, do you actually mean SP?

Also, just hang in there alright, because Dust will be just like EVE with updates. I know as it is for a lot of people, that it's gotten crazy boring and there are only so many bugs until they are all discovered or at least most within a certain build.

People need to just hang in there, it will get better, much better. There might be different types of ammo, weapon customization, map generation based on installations and player placed as well, many different options for weapons in each category, what CCP has planned for this game is amazing and I'll wait, patiently, it'll just be time. (This goes for everyone) I see EVE and play EVE and therefor I will not lose hope on Dust.

We are up for a new build, should hopefully be soon, but like I said, I'll wait because when it comes, it'll be awesome, it's CCP damn it!

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.

um you do know this is a beta right? This is currently so far from the final product it's laughable.

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.

I totally agree people expect the best most perfect thing ever but its only a beta there is going to be complaints you just can't ***** cause you know why theres problems

Decides to play Borderlands 2 all next week.
Waiting for Defiance.........

I can't even bring myself to grind sp. It sucks cause I really like this game however I am completely done untill something changes. Hopefully I won't fall too far behind. I just can't do it.
