You seem like a young, intelligent guy Iron Wolf, see you on irc all the time. But how about you just give your opinion instead of insulting the OP. If anything you should be insulting me, I think your the biggest fanboy out there for CCP, so read the last sentence in my previous post.

You never seem to lack for words or opinions on irc, why censor yourself now?

this is considered a commercial release and in the gaming industry that means the game is live. So stopped being a thick-skulled-fan-boi

Seriously man there are more people in the dust community that care about this game then just you. I get it CCP said they don't have to listen to us, just the csm. I'd be happy to paste the quote from them. It's saved for just these occasions. I am sure the open beta testers would love to know that.

CCP is just farming money right now thats why there is no sense of urgency to actually deliver they game we are already paying for.

CCP doesn't communicate worth a **** about anything because they assume "their ideas" will work first time. How has that worked out in practice that last 12 monoths for dust? Sorry Ironwolf but ccp has made a miserable game and called it a beta to cover their ass on it.

Everyone of us play it to get sp and nothing else. If sp didn't have a cap I think most players would just leave and come back when this remotely looks like a real game.

He may not but I do! I understand the nitty gritties of SDLC all too well. I also have enough knowledge about code and build management to tell you that its no excuse.

LOL. Dont confuse a netwrok upgrade with SDLC. Network upgrades involve not only cordination within the company but also 3rd party provides. Where are you getting you Gb interfaces from? Cisco? Typo? Mom and Pop? Are you upgrading you server interfaces too? Are you backbone switches Gb compatible or are the 10/100? Are they in Full Auto or Duplex mode.

CCIE here LMFAO.

This is code builds. Has nothing to do with a backbone upgrade. a bug fix is identify the problem -> fix the rpoblem ->> QA test it. Its as simple as that. We have 20 devs working on bug fixes and go through over 200 tickets a day.

Stop being a fanboy and get real son.

Dude! We are not talking about the CCP network infratructure out here. We are talking about communication between CCP and gamers. Simple no?

And my consultation fees is $60 an hour onsite local and $1000 - $3000 a day if I have to travel. If CCP wants to hire me for help with their SDLC let them let me know and I will check my calendar.

I have brought SOA systems in under a year.

But its not about me or anything else. Its about communication. One simple email or dev blog or announcement. Is that too much to ask?

Rather rude retort that I certainly wouldn't not facebook

Not many, but I'm an optimistic person... I do hope they get to work on them as fast as possible though, things are getting kind of boring/stale. There was also their little vacation, it seems to me that people are under the impression that CCP was actually secretly at work during this time... They're probably mistaken, I certainly don't work during my vacation.

Actually you are quite wrong about this atleast in Corporate America. Corporate America loves assholes and they get paid a lot. When I recruit people I like my fellow ******* because they are the ones that actually get the job done.

There is skill set and there is experience. In corporate america both are taken into account. While someone might have the skill set they dont have the experience. I have gone through over 1000 resumes, screened over 200 people and recruited less than 20.

Anyways back to communication. We need better communication from CCP.

not for nothing but I made this same exact post the other day and everyone flamed me...

There are 2 types of people in this world. People who get **** done and people like you who make excuses why they can't. I may be an ******* and fire starter but I get **** done and done right.

I put my time in effort into to ccp and this game just be to be told that they dont have to listen to us. **** that and excuse spouting fanbois like yourself. It's been almost a year and this game is ****. Go read Nova Knifes thread about the same damn thing.

You keep telling us we won't listen when you actually mean we wont agree with you. Only a hard headed hypocrate would say such a thing. I have the same problem with my 15 year on niece which is telling.

So go on being a mad bro but stop telling people to shut up when they are voicing their discord with CCP.

i can understand that, but....think about the guys that hasn't played dust, now think about the guys that are about to quit playing.
do you think they are going to care for what your post means? i mean no harm by this statement but outside of these forums are a larger crowd. they will not see Dust the way we(you) see it.

i just want CCP to involve us more so we have an incentive to stay, instead of trying to hold on to that belief "Dust will be the greatest game so just wait awhile"

Can you stop blaming the players for a God Damned Second. You can't see a damn thing with your head so far up CCPs ass right now

Why is it never CCPs fault? Why did it take 5 months to fix invalid bug? Why do they "fix" things and it end us destorying them? Missile turrets needed balance and they ruined them. CCP is just like you they want us to listen and be patient about stuff well its been a year and this game is ****.

Lets go down the list of stuff ccp has given us over the last year and still have.

Frame rate stutter
lag (I have a high speed business class pipe and 1 out of 3 games i can really feel the lag)
blue ******* sheilds
spawming (why would anyone really use aurum gear when they could lose it first spawn of the game?)
inventory bugs
disconnects
UVT issues
go and search for a corp and get dc'd
coms bugs (this is great when you switch to team chat to play a corp battle and 3 people have lost coms or get dc'd)
Inventory issues
Restocking issues
infinite spinning wheel bug (so many things causes this)
No alliance chat or functionality for dust side
No market
passive sp bug

head ******* glitching (6 months later is considered a technical issue by ccp when we told them to fix it last summer)
heavies that stick their gun into a wall and half the bullets still hit me.

laser skill are fk'd up and need looking at

map for ***** sake maps are bad. We asked for more maps and more infantry specific sockets so tanks/ds couldn't rule the day. We got smaller maps and the same maps. Whose ever idea that was a ccp should be fired for shear stupidity.

corp battles are lame

The only connecction to eve we have with game play is just an exploitable no value proposition.

So don't tell me to be patient any more ironwolf because after a year this is all the **** we got.

listen....this thread is about DUST. im not asking for them to finish the game before the PS4 comes out. what i want, and im pretty sure most of these guy do too, is for CCP to stop wasting their time with such things as "matchmaking" etc.
I want them to tell me exactly what their working on right now so we can figure out where dust is heading in the next 2-3 months. i want them to talk to us more about certain fixes before they implement them. wouldn't you want to hear possible fixes on the heavy suits and weapon and have a community discussion? doing this will allow them to gather our feedback while they focus on other things. all i want is for them to make us feel important somehow so it lets all of us know "hey these guys really care about us and together we will make this game better". if they make us feel that way i guarantee we will be more excited about this game and want to play even longer.

right now it just feels that dust has entered into a partial stable state since it has been out for a year. we dont know whats next and whats already fixed and what we should be working towards. all we know is that next-gen is on its way and CCP hasnt engaged us about anything for awhile
