Without the EvE connection its just another shooter, and I wouldn't give it a second look The point isn't that the connection to EVE is bad, it's that the connection to EVE, to a cold and merciless universe of sandbox gameplay, is insufficient. EDIT: And at the same time that the connection to EVE mechanics is being stressed in places where it doesn't work.
The biggest stress seems to be that some day all of our gear will be bought from and traded around the eve universe. So with the new changes to mining and building in nul sec prices will be set by which side is winning and how much gear is being lost.
Wars wil make prices skyrocket, but since dust and eve work on a region to region gameplay, the prices will only be high in the region with heavy pricing.
Now how they will handle dust mercs moving around i have no idea, but the best part is how we'll mine drones for ore *like eve used to be* and ship them through a space elevator, where eve players give us money for it.
AWESOME
This is why dust is different, without eve dust is just some shooter, no matter how good it gets. I think BF3/4 are some of the best game ever made for this generation. But I don't lay them , at all. Never paid a penny for them. Briginpal showed me what was ossible with his trolly youtube vids of BF3.
Straping C4 to your fighter jet, and then jumping out at the last minute so your fighter crashes into a Bomber while you paracute away is epic. Especially when you watching the whole thing press the c4 button at 20,000 feet and watch your jet you were just piloting blow up.
Dust is being made by a ton of DICE devs, and the BF3 sandbox fps gameplay is there. But Even though I think BF3 finally delievers on sandbox fps combat, every battle is random, with no conection to each other. It's all instances. You don't get to land on your territory and explore it while there is no combat going on. There is no real loss per death. There is no player market or deep skill tree.
Dust has the potenal to really make a huge mark on gaming. We just have to wait 1-2 years for their vision to be completed.
sry for typos, I'm really sick in bed : ( |
