The game is supposed to launch on May 14th. But I have yet to see one advertisement on TV or any major tech websites for it.
Is this a new marketing strategy? Defiance sucks as a game, but it did start spamming advertisements 2-3 months in advance.
Sooo Im just wondering where are all the SONY advertisements are for the launch of DUST? Thought it was supposed to be one of the flagship titles of the future for them?

David Reid (aka CCP Pokethulu) actually spoke a bit about our marketing at the CCP Presents presentation at Fanfest. Essentially, while our launch is on the 14th, we are not going to be doing a full marketing push on the game until further down the line. We believe in taking a more grassroots approach to marketing our games rather than a full on marketing blitz. |

Well unfortunately for the whole grass roots movement you are going for the way the game is right now with all the imbalancing that has happened with uprising I dont think many people are going to get the word out to their friends, family, and coworkers to play this game. Before Uprising i had nothing but good things to say about Dust514 to my co-workers. Now the only thing I can say thats good about it is that its progressive and looks nice. Gameplay took a total dive yesterday and you may as well have released a whole different game. This build is like a Dust514 knockoff. |

You're launching the game then telling NOBODY until it sucks less? Oh - oh ho ho - now that's rich. Instead of giving into your companies failures your going to mask and hide to the rest of the world. Amazing PR CCP. |

Well, the grassroots thing worked for EVE for quite some, but even your own metrics have shown that one of the biggest spikes in the active player numbers came after the short stint where TV ads were run during Battlestar Galactica on SciFi (NOT SyFy) around Quantum Rise IIRC.
However, if you guys feel that current player base for Dust is keeping it in the black, then more power to you. |

So the new people who join are going to a game of 20 or so people with 10 million times their SP and cash? Trust me, if I had never played EVE or the beta for this and I just joined right now, I would turn away immediately... New players will get thrashed and a console game is not meant to have the complication that has been induced.
That is why this should either be both available on PC and PS3 or they should have done an RTS instead of an FPS for expanding EVE... where you buy militants, equip them and deploy them in a Civilisation V / Starcraft II manner... |

I actually have no complaints about the game not being advertised yet.
I hope they put those PR dollars into building a test server and/or hiring on more DUST employees :)

This proves that CCP advertisement team has the hardest job. It is so hard it is impossible and they just gave up.

So basically CCP doesn't think there game is good yet, and wants us to keep spending money on it till they can "mainstream" it |

Has no one ever opened a business before? U open it get it going tell its the way u want it then u Java. A "grand opening" when u tell everyone and there dog that ur open. This marketing strategy is not new nor is it out of place for a game. Intact alot of new places will have muli grand openings like every 6other months that's not uncommon. |

Thank you for taking the time to answer the question. I admit I have been wondering why SONY/CCP is stealth launching the game to the public.
I understand the Grassroots approach, save money on advertising that can hopefully be funneled into the game's development. I just hope there is a community that supports this game whenever you guys decide to start this PR campaign.
Because I have to admit I was a little taken aback by how few people are actually on this client (avgs. about 4.5k), I thought it would be in the 10-20k or so mark. And with the next patch bringing new weps and PC, what better time to get the public involved in it. |

I've gotten a few people into this game. Been hyping it as much as I can. Yes we should get officer suits or weapons for invites

We will see how many people are on during peek hours this weekend. World of Tanks averages 30k+ on the NA server durring peak hours, and around 10k on off hours.
Long story short we need a larger playerbase for this game to succeed. |

Simcity has over 3million users. That's a reason besides DRM for Simcity's server/network failures. Is a 5k player base really straining the DUST servers (50k if you include EVE)? |

Many of you fail to realize what kind of company CCP is. Unlike most game developers, they do things with the longterm in mind. If you're all about instant gratification, GTFO. And if you need a primer on how CCP works (and the success it has brought them, when developers have come into the spotlight and subsequently died off or burned out), go to the EVE forums and figure out how they scored with that game, which remains unprecedented.
This isn't ******* Battlefield, CoD, or Black Ops, or whatever other low attention span clusterfuck you guys play, this is an actual FIRST in the history of gaming. Play this or go play something else and watch them make history. |

No, we don't.
This is why CCP takes things slowly.
And if you need a reason to accept that we do NOT need a larger playerbase right out of the 'release' gate, look to EVE. The playerbase was slowly built, and the game is continually updated. It still isn't considered a MASSIVE success, but it has staying power because CCP knows how to stay afloat. Stop thinking the only way for a game to succeed is to bring in an asston of people to flood the server. |

You need a good way to get new players involved in FPS that DOES NOT involve relegating them to PVE stuff. Larger starting SP, uncapped SP and shorter time to specialization with more variety in suits(varying module, cpu, pg, equipment and bonuses both in class and race till you get like idk 80 just in suits as a hypothetical, yea yea i know power creewp whatever this approach isn't working and before the EVE guys quote EVE to me this is an FPS and its on console, understand your market). |

I agree. PvE is a two-edged sword. It retains some people who are newer to FPS and want to ease themselves in but it also becomes too comfortable, aka boring. Another problem with PvE is that players, at least in EvE, feel like they need just one more Billion isk, or just one more skill book, or one more skill to level V before they can start PvPing. Dust, at least, throws you straight into the fight whether you're ready or not. Unfortunately, that also turns off many people when they get deleted by better gear. There's a balanced way to handle the extremes and I hope CCP finds it.

That's, easily, one of the games biggest issues, right now. Awful matchmaking. It's the same as it was in open beta. New players are pitted against dudes and dudettes with Duvolles and proto suits with 500 shields and/or amour. No way to compete against that. No way in hell. Don't care what anyone says.

i think this is because their not secure in this game being bug free enough for it... I suspect that it will be pushed when they see a more bug free environment. |

Essentially, while our launch is on the 14th, we are not going to be doing a full marketing push on the game until further down the line. We believe in taking a more grassroots approach to marketing our games rather than a full on marketing blitz. Oh the lack of confidence hidden behind PR phrases; says it all. I wouldn't want to show the majority of PSN users the state of the game either, I fully support your decision. Keep up the good work, maybe consider a rename Dust 911?
I hear ya on that, my uncle was a PR Director/coordinator for a base in the navy in Pensacola for a time, i smell PR Bull**** all around that phrase. |

I suspect that it will be pushed when they see a more bug free environment.
It'll be pushed when there are 4 heavies, 4 HAVs, 4 LAVs, 4Scouts, so on.... Before that the game is literally half finished, no more resets but not all tanks out >.> |

It's a shame really. Why not apply everything they've learned from EVE? Communicating early and open. Listen to player feedback (and no, I'm not talking about the QQing). There're plenty of constructive posts.
As of now, they redo Dust every single build. This will be a neverending cycle. |

You're launching the game then telling NOBODY until it sucks less? Oh - oh ho ho - now that's rich. Instead of giving into your companies failures your going to mask and hide to the rest of the world. Amazing PR CCP.
Lol, +1 for trolling CCP lol |
