Re-learning? Tell me - how do new people re-learn to catch up?
Welcome to the real world indeed, CCP.

Starhawk was made in early 2012 I believe, It lost most of it's playerbase due to horrible unbalances at launch. Saying that I mean HORRIBLE unbalances nothing dust have ever seen. That was eventually sorted out, The playerbase dropped to below 1000 Many people said it would die, But as the days carry on, it's still going strong with about 300 players on.
Dust 514 won't die.
3000 players is enough to keep it alive for years.
Those 3000 players are before CCP even puts out advertisements.
Summary: Doom Sayers are wrong. .. I think you just explained why Starhawk failed and why CCP is following suit...
3000 players for a progressive game is not the same as 300 players on a game where everything is handed to you from day one. |

Enough to find a full lobby.

Summary: Doom Sayers are wrong. low player counts cause the game to get boring tho, when your fighting the same people over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over I enjoyed it, if you get bored over that, you get bored too easily. Uhm - not to ... point out the obvious...
but 300 people online ... one would assume everyone got bored... |

A game that is free to play, yes I am. Why are you on the forums then? We're trying to improve things - not fit your standard of a cheap game. |

Sorry to state this but, complaining about how low you think the player base is and how Dust is going to die isn't an effective way of helping to improve stuff. So - just because you don't like what's being done by 'vets' everything must be fine?
Your logic - have any? |

SherIock Holmes wrote:[quote=SoTa of PoP] I just stated that saying that the game will die and the player counts are too low is counterproductive. Then you respond with that question... You just implied that it's the 'vets' that are the ones saying those things. Saying that I am willing to except a game that is in a state of mediocrity does not mean I don't think there is room for improvement. I am not after whatever you said in other posts. You said, clearly, you're willing to accept a free to play game being mediocre. A pretty obviously true statement we could all agree with usually - but it holds no value here. This isn't a mediocre game - it's a AAA title. It being Free To Play was a decision CCP thought would eventually bring a larger player base and ultimately more money through micros-transactions.
But I get the sensation I may be confused by your statements. |

Ric Barlom wrote:Alright, guys. Time for another reality check here. And let me start of by saying: JESUS CHRIST! I mean I've been reading some of the threads this guys starts, guys, and make no mistake about it: I'm praying this dude is in fact a woman, like the character he/she plays with. Not only do I hope the dude's a woman but I also pray the God that it's that time of the month, man, because if not he must be suffering from some of the most brutal hormonal imbalances known to man! Ever. Of all time! Now let me give you a couple of tips, man: Go eat some bacon and eggs, hit the gym ASAP, sleep more and stop playing this game! Right now! Maybe you'll get some testosterone running through your body.
And let me address the whole point of this thread as amusing as it is in it's ridiculousness, guys. "Welcome to the real world". Really? I mean last time I checked half of the people here who approve of this message don't even have a job! And I'm not talking about you guys being mercenaries, pencil necks! I'm talking about the real world where you guys are welcoming these self made guys at CCP who started this whole EVE thing from nothing. What have you done? I mean how can you welcome someone into the real world when you're not there yourself? Beats me! I'm flabbergasted here, guys! I mean please somebody help me out here!
Alright, guys, I've had my fun and now it's time to get serious: Get the **** out of this game! You remind me of my friends girlfriend who once once each month goes: "Oh this relationship will die, it's over, this is not working!" Only difference is that you guys do it every single day. Every. Single. Day. Then you guys come out here and go "I'm just trying to save this game". I've got news for you, you're making things worse! Stop it, guys. Stop it!
Ps. My friend's not together with the girl cause she whines about stuff one day each month. He's with her cause he's a patient nice guy. One day I hope to see a post from you that doesn't reference anything sexual. |

I'm gonna lay it down for you straight: What have you, or any of your corp mates, or anyone else here done that makes you feel like you can "welcome CCP into the real world"? I think you need to take a step back and ask yourself, "Is this a metaphor?" ^_^
And thanks for a post that doesn't include bleeding women or banging one. I know how hard that must of been. |

Oh what is that a metaphor for? "I don't like the new build and I'm gonna have a tantrum over it"? **** you! And while I'm at it, let me tell you something else, dude. I'm gonna throw you a little prediction of my own cause I heard someone, probably from your alliance, dramatically state that the game won't survive another 2 months. Well I guarantee you that it's gonna survive more than 2 more months so you guys don't need to have nightmares over it. Now settle the **** down, do what I told you earlier to get your testosterone levels up and enjoy life cause you guys are obviously not enjoying this game! ...? Did you just cuss over and over then tell me to settle down? Lmao. This is why no one listens to you - other then you only seem to know what's in your pornos. |

I know there are problems, I know they're working hard to fix stuff. The difference here is how we react to this situation, man, and let me explain exactly how. I mean you guys are going full blown hysterical over this saying stuff like "This game fails in 2 months" and "Welcome to the real world" I mean what the **** do you guys wanna accomplish by this? You're acting like CCP is your daddy and you can throw a tantrum to get what you want. It might have worked with YOUR parents, bro, my parents had none of that BS. I didn't get to throw around threats and demands, man, and you should stop doing it here in the Dust 514 forums too, bro, cause it's not helping one bit!
Here's the thing brah As a paying customer i do get to call out the developer. I also get to explain my dismay at their incompetence. Moreover we have given feedback and expressed our opinions throughly throughout since closed beta. What happens a carebear comes in says HTFU everything is fine and it gets ignored. Moreover CCP collects their data from public matches where the overwhelming majority are clueless on how to play the game so your sample size is utterly skewed. Ive been in the business world long enough to now that when a company continually ignores or utterly destroys their product to the point of such a high level of consumer dissatisfaction that it shakes away any sense of trust between the two parties is when it often means the decline of said product. Unlike major companies that can simply pull the project, retool and rebrand CCP is small and has a gun to their head. We've told them till we are blue in the face what to do. As far as feedback for the umpteenth time here start with this The feedback is pretty much simple, Hit detection Map terrain Aiming Weapon range buffs Suit buffs to balance around logi suit Uncapped SP Faster entry point for new players to increase retention. First of all, Mr. Business man, I suggest you take some writing lessons. Might help you with your career, man. The second thing is that if you've already told CCP this for "umpteen" times don't you think they've read it? I mean what are you expecting to happen the next time you say the same things tomorrow? A miracle? I don't get it. They are aware what you have hysterically proclaimed over and over again and either they're gonna do something about it or not. You having a tantrum about it here is NOT gonna change facts. Let me TL;DR rics words since he likes to make a bunch of posts that looks like words are trying to form walls.
Ric: Stop QQing, this isn't helping, if you don't feel like you're being listened too then just relax. Beating your chest and raging on the forums doesn't help CCP, or us.
That would be his bottom line. However - if you were to take him at face value...
Ric: **** off pussies, you want to know whose got a life, not you fags. You're just tantrum throwing adults acting like pre-teens who first got there rag in the middle of swimming.
Now - Ric - since you're such a sensible guy (LOL) care to explain how you're any different then the people you're raging at?
It's like Obama telling Bush he fails at life. |

You're throwing a tantrum and your parents didn't teach you NOT to throw a tantrum like that, so I'm gonna have to be the one to teach you guys that. Okay - I know this is lame of me to do since ... well, heh.
But since you brought in parents teachings.... Did your mother tell you it was okay to go to a gaming forum and constantly bring up womens periods, banging them, and basically reducing females to be nothing but meat for your enjoyment? How can you sit here and preach about a parents teaching when your own would slap you so hard your head would fall off?
No really - bring them to the forums. I'll give them some links of your posts. |

Hey, man, I've got nothing against women, dude. I have a lot of respect for all women, I love them. All shape, all colors. But let's be honest here, bro, they've got their issues with those hormones and there's no denying that. I mean I've got my hormonal issues, dude, and I'm the first one to admit that I've got a lot of testosterone moving around in my body and it makes me go overboard every now and then. Doesn't mean I hate guys with a lot of testosterone. You know, for all your talk and opinions, I really like how straight forward you are. |

Welcome to the real world indeed, CCP.
I was going to say why you out of imps, but then I saw that the name is different. Why you alt posting? Or who is impersonating you? I've been banned for a month - I over ranted. Learned my lesson, keep it on IRC. :D |
