Gameplay is not just about graphics. Dust is a unique blend of FPS and MMO. You will find atrade off here. However the content of dust is rich. After 20 years of gaming I have finally found a game that not only offers vast content but also integration between space warfare and ground warfare.

If you care only about the graphics Dust is probably not the game for you. However if you like everything about gaming which is fun, challenge, content, growth, storyline etc etc etc Dust is the game for you. Dust will be ever evolving.

There is no trade off. If Dust had about 64 players and some huge maps, then it would validate the current graphics.

Dust will be getting a graphics update and some other graphical issues hopefully fixed. The lack of RAM on the PS3 also is hard to deal with so, we won't see graphics from a PC game on this console, maybe the PS4 once DUST ports over, but not on the PS3. My only graphical gripe is what seems to look like 64x64 or 256x256 graphics on some objects in the game world and sometimes the game world's higher res textures not loading fully. But I suggest you don't expect today's pc graphics on the PS3, it couldn't handle it and probably melt.

CRONOS. 3141	Posted - 2013.03.18 19:08:00 - [8] - Quote Lighting effects are getting better (though some of the clipping is still there) Many textures need working on, most notable the tops of many buildings. Terrain could use a pass-over as well. More tiles and tiles that have tiles. Optimization wanted but not getting yet.

I don't think it is being "graphic obsessed" to want a console FPS game to (on final release) look as good (and have as good frame rates) as other FPS for the same console.

This is good for both them and us. They get an emence amount of help from the commumity's feedback and the beta veterans who will know the ins and outs of the game by launch that will help new players from getting lost and eventually dropping the game from frustration. In return, we get to play the game earlier than it was intended (based on how many other companies decide to hold back content until it's about 95% complete). Plus it's a really good feeling to you know you were part of the reason why many people will lve and be hardcore fans of this game.

Kasuko Raideaux CERULEAN HEIGHTS 1	Posted - 2013.03.18 20:28:00 - [13] - Quote cough cough ahem cough cough THIS GAME IS NOT DONE!!!! THIS GAME IS NOT!!!!! DONE!!!!! THIS!!!!! GAME!!!!!!!! IS !!!!!!! NOT !!!!!!!!! DONE!!!!!!!!! Get it yet? This game is not done. This is a beta test! Now when I say this is a beta test I mean BETA. Not like the other companies that have fully developed the game internally and then they release their finished game as a "beta" so they can test out their servers and determine any last minute issues. This game however is not DONE nor anywhere near it! If you cry and qq and demand CCP to give you better graphics and they do make it AAA graphics in the beta ... by the time the game is actually done those graphics are now "out of date" and we have to go through this whole thing again with all new people whining how this game doesn't have AAA graphics and CCP wasted all the time in the beta to make things look better to only have to do it again! I would rather CCP spends their time developing the GAME! Do cool things that are fun to PLAY not fun to look at. If I wanted something pretty to look at I'd buy some art. Till then I want my game to be fun!

You also know that halfway through development they moved from the CARBON in house engine to the UNREAL engine. That put development of graphics and content back by about 2 years.

We've got sometime before final release and at least one build in between that many have said will have graphical improvements. Frame rate is a different issue and I have no qualms with people complaining about that; however they can improve frame rate without improving graphics and improving graphics will not improve frame rate. You may not think so but I firmly believe that demanding CCP to waste time and money improving the graphics when the game already looks good to be graphics obsessed. Sure other FPS's look better but eye candy is pretty much all most of them are; they lack gameplay which relegates them to flavors of the month and even of the week.

Geth Massredux ZionTCD Legacy Rising 103	Posted - 2013.03.18 23:01:00 - [20] - Quote Many other have similar threads about graphics or stuff like this. You and everybody else has to understand that CCP really doesnt care about graphics AT THE MOMENT. (ITS BETA), or actually its Open Beta. But apparently that term has been used to much to where I cant use it anymore with much people caring. Anyways what im trying to say is that if CCP actually cared about graphics and bugs we would've been had that update. We would've been had bug fixes, especially the major ones that make us have to restart the game ever other 4-5-6 matches we play. The bugs and Graphics are not on there list apparently at the moment. They are focusing on the major thing here- I try to tell this every time somebody posts a similar thread like this one. That if the more content they add on the PS3 if it can actually play the game we like. So if they just improve upon the graphics(they already look decent) it might cause more lag. Its already on one huge ass server- which is connected to the EVE online server- Tranquility. If they improve bugs(which would be good but take a lot of time away from the main part) thats my guess on bugs. They are focusing on the main game- basically if it can actually play on the ps3. - ofcourse the ps3 is outdated and cant do as much as a pc. But CCP is obviously pushing the ps3 to its limits and then some.

Graphics are the least of anyones worries in a beta. the point of a beta is to get the core aspects pinned. do you think that COD had good graphics when it was in Alphaa/Beta? Probaly not. Get where Im going? *we need Bugs to be fixed, weapons to be balenced, and other fun features added (Like PODs (Player-Owned-Districts)) way before graphics need to be updated*

To all of those who get offendend at the demand of better graphics you're missing the point in this specific case. First off graphics are about of medium importance to me. I believe they work in tandem with many many other game aspects. A great game should have atmosphere and a general feel to it from it's mechanics and features all the way down to the text. The point of threads like this is the importance of how the final product will look on what will be the mainstream system of it's time. The PS4. Point in short, despite how good a game's features are people don't want to have their PS4 game look like it came from the PS2. It is a valid expectation that the technology you pay for is put to use.
