Under. 5k. players. online. And when that number goes up, you'll go see if IGN gave the game a bad review and post that all over these forums. And if neither of those pan out, you'll go find something else. It's not even about the game. It's about your inferiority complex. Must hurt for the thing you're best at in life to be gaming. Don't worry, they have counselors for that.  Cheers for your enlightening analysis. I think the game is poo, i say the game is poo and that offends you? strange Under. 5k. players. online. and virtually no advertising done for the game, your point?
No advertising? It's plastered all over the PSN store, IGN, PSNblog, youtube and a bunch of other websites. Take the blinders off your eyes and you might see that.
All the people that gave this game a 10 are going off of it's potential. A potential that has yet to be realized. Fanboys are trying there best to save the game from getting bad scores or from being seen negatively by the public the game is bad plain and simple. Besides a 10 would mean it's perfect and you and anyone else who would rate Dust a ******* 10 are lying to yourselves so you can feel better about Dust.
While I would realistically rate this game a 6 to 7 maybe 7.5 on a good day it's core shooter mechanics are not tight at all it's a mess, graphics improved while I'm not looking for BF3 graphics this game is as poor on graphics quality as MOH:WF, frame rate never goes over 15, lag, poor hit detection.
Maps are to big for player count, maps are to big for the current weapon ranges, things don't render properly, SP takes to long to accumulate to earn better gear, game modes are uninspired and not original Skirmish is basically BF conquest, no true weapon variety all weapons with in a certain class all look the same but they do different things...
Instead of making an AR with single shot, semi auto, and full auto variants wouldn't it have been easier to make one gun with a select fire switch? They then could've focused on actually making more weapons different designs.
Lack of weapon customization! This is a big one not only does my weapon look exactly like the guys standing next to me I can't make it my own. Fitting the way I want no I'll have to wait 6 months to a year for that and this game has been in beta for 1 year but in development way longer than that things like that should be here already.
Dust has promise but it's a half baked FPS with no soul. If CCP would've tried to actually develop the game before putting it in beta it would probably be in a much better place right now! The only thing unique Dust offers is PC but who wants to fight over planets if the core of the game is sloppy?! |

Under. 5k. players. online. I love how people quote this like it actually means anything. Lets pretend, just for a minute, that every single one of those players is online for a full 2 hours. Now lets also pretend, to make your argument look REALLY good, that there's no fluctuation in the playerbase from day to day. This means you only multiply the current number of active players by 12, giving a total playerbase of 60,000. Obviously, this is a gross under-estimate because the assumptions I'm making are provably false for the majority of DUST players. 200,000 active players wouldn't be an unreasonable estimate, although it might be on the high side.
BF3 on the PS3 alone averages that and then some during prime time I believe 73,000 were on last I checked. You are completely reaching for excuses... |

So because an actual AAA title that's been out for long enough to have built up its sales numbers AND is a continuation of an already-established franchise can do it, a free-to-play new arrival with minimal advertising should too? Pretty sure that for early days on an unproven product, DUST is doing just fine. I'm not arguing that DUST is perfect, I'm not even arguing that it's ready for release (I don't think it is). I'm just saying that being consistently above 3000 simultaneous players most days is actually not as bad as people are trying to make it sound.
Dust is being advertised as a AAA title! With all of the beta invites that went out with all of the youtube ads, IGN ads, and so on you would think that Dust would be averaging well over 3,000! There was a point when at least 10,000 beta testers were on. It's also not hard for word to get around about this new F2P shooter on the PSN. I have plenty of friends who tried it and didn't like it. Even more friends that I would rather shoot in the foot than be responsible for having them try Dust out. |

But they get all warm and gushy between the legs whenever they talk about CCP. "CCP never does anything wrong [slurp]. CCP is awesome to release and advertise a 2007 quality game in 2013 [slurp]." And my personal favorite "it's going to be a great game in several years from now [slurp slurp] so you shouldn't criticize it for being a piece of garbage now [slurpity slurp slurp]
Thats exactly what they sound like. |
