I disagree. I enjoyed fighting for the Starkmanir, because it was the first time playing DUST that I felt connected to the EVE metagame. Certainly more of that will come later, in the form of things like the unified markets and planetary control. But I think CCP is doing a good job right now of working on what needs to be worked on while simultaneously throwing us DUST mercs a big meaty story bone or two. It's not as though they're taking time from developing the game to give us this event either. All it took was a few manually set up Mercenary battles and enough eager players to fill them. |

Besides, the bulk of their dev team is on vacation at the moment. They'll be back around the 21st, I think. im not looking for easy, im looking for bug fixes im looking for content!
You're not listening: they're working on the game while doing this. It takes very little effort to pull off a DUST Live Event, and it takes a lot more effort to work on patches, expansions, and updates. Right now they can invest most of their time into major expanions (such as the upcoming one which is promising new suits, planetary conquest, and a graphics upgrade) while runnin these Live Events at little cost to themselves. The Live Events serve to keep the players interested and engaged in the game by including them in the metagame for EVE's world, which will tide them over until the next expansion is released.
Doing this Live Event is in no way keeping you from your precious updates. So be patient. |

Just fixes and a complete and solo stand alone entity. I feel enough eve feeling. I see eve players in chat, I can email them good to go, and they can shoot us from space(which is effing awesome) I don't need story telling stuff, we can do that stuff later.
If you want a standalone entity, you'll need to find another game. DUST has always been marketed as a companion game to EVE, and if you can't handle that you should leave now. |

Curious what does the Shanghai CCP team work on? The other CCP teams are all still hard at work while the Shanghai team is on holiday?
The Spring Festival is an important holiday in Shanghai. You couldn't expect the people there to work on a holiday, just like you wouldn't expect them to work on Christmas if they were living in the U.S. |

DUST has always been marketed as a companion game to EVE, and if you can't handle that you should leave now. this makes no sense! do you like glitches and the content the way it is in the beta? sounds like you should have stayed on the duke nukem forever development team.
I'm really not sure what you're getting at, but that could be because your language and grammar are atrocious. When you said standalone game, I assumed you meant that you wanted a game that could stand on its own. And that game isn't DUST. DUST has never been intended to stand on its own, it was intended to stand together with EVE Online. So in that sense, if you want DUST to stand alone, you're just being stupid.
But now I think you're talking about a working game that people can play relatively hassle free. And if you want that, I'd remind you that we're still in the beta stages, and that at no point has CCP said anything other than that this game is a work in progress. So treat it like that. The bugs and glitches are part of the job of being a beta tester. |
