Dust 514 has bigger maps, better vehicles, badder guns, better-looking suits for ladies, long-distance range sniping, and more, you name it.
Dust 514 still ripped off the bunny hopping from Halo.... |

Dust 514 still ripped off the bunny hopping from Halo.... I don't think anyone would object to the bunnyhopping going away. I guess my only beef with the physics as they are is how "flighty" the gravity is. |

Jumping in a game? Must be Halo... seriously? That's your argument? Jumping in games is older than half the population of Dust players. Though, honestly, Halo isn't as fun. Nowhere near the same level of customization. |

What's wrong with a little complaint like bunnyhopping? Sure, it's fun to jump, but Dust 514 is a thinking man's shooter. Jumping around is easy to avoid bullets and lasers, which I find unrealistic. |

Halo brought in Weapons Candace which imo is something many games should have. While arbitrarily every other game has it, Halo makes it a point to emphasize its existence. Yeah a DMR can shoot pretty fast but thanks to that special reactive site you train yourself to only fire when the site hits near center. |

I dunno, HALO has some pretty neat guns and the game modes are waaaayyy better (at the moment)
Also the aiming and FPS mechanics are TIGHT. Dust could definetly use a few of its mechanics in aiming.
Plus, lolwut bunnyhopping? Heck, in DUST I can't vault over half the railings in the game because they made them a quarter invh too high... |

Yes, Dust 514 could take a little cue from Halo, but then that'd be ripping 'em off. Dust 514 is still Halo for the PS3, though.
Yes, I think that if bunnyhopping makes it easy to avoid bullets, why can't we vault over objects like in real life? And hate to bring COD up, but I think COD did this one right. Jumping is available in COD, but hard to avoid bullets and can climb and mantle over objects just fine. |

Fill out skill trees with SP you earn by doing nothing is not thinking. The fact that having more SP giving you a God Mode over people with less SP takes even less brain cells.
Do EvE players honestly think they are doing anything more then filling out an IRS form when they Min Max out their spec?
But yeah Dust bunny hops need to go....Even Planet Side 2 does not have them and that has friggin jet packs....let alone CoD or BF3, which are the "AAA" shooters of today.
Note: I am pretty sure Sony is all nice with CCP because Dust fills a check box for them against Xbox's exclusive Halo franchise. Would not be surprised if hopping is requirment put on Dust by sony.
Note2: Just watched some halo 4 multiplayer videos...never played the game. But the hops in that game look more like the leaps of quake arena rather then the avoidance hops Dust has. The Dust bunny hop looks more the shooter hops of Socom and Enemy Territory.
Note3: I hereby claim the name "Dust Bunny" for my alt, future corp and future Dust fanboy punk band name. |

No, Perfect Dark had nothing on Goldeneye, but neither one of them was considered a competitive FPS. Competition on Nintendo... now there's a lolwut for ya. |

Think of SP and Skills as little bonuses. They're like gold star stickers that kids get excited from a little work and being good little angels. The real thinking takes over during battles.

You were saying?
Indie was originally used for "individual", i.e. you were the company who came up with the idea, approved it and developed it. Generally indie companies use well-known production companies, like SOE, or a good example would be Dishonored using Bethesda Softworks as a publisher.
CCP is an indie developer, in that it came up with the idea for EVE online, approved it, developed it from scratch, and eventually wound up publishing it itself (after its publisher went bust).
AAA shooters have no set definition, but in general they are seen to be the big ones: CoD, BF, MoH, etc. Not that they're typically examples of the best quality of shooters out there - look at L4D and CS for those rewards. |

From wiki:
"thatgamecompany is an American independent video game development studio co-founded by University of Southern California students Kellee Santiago and Jenova Chen. The studio was formerly a developer for Sony Computer Entertainment, contracted to create three downloadable games for the PlayStation 3's PlayStation Network service, and has since secured independent funding." |

"At the Spike Video Game Awards, Journey won awards as the best PlayStation 3 game,[41] the best indie game"

I don't think there's much of an argument between Halo and DUST... I mean, they're different games. You can't really compare them unless Halo involved a bit more of your mind. You can say, "Oh no, Halo is definitely better", but that'd be wrong, because (IMO), the only aspect they have in common is that they're both futuristic, and they're both a FPS. They both have their merits.
Where DUST has more customization, bigger maps, and (much) larger lore; Halo has more weapons, vehicles, suit variation, game types, and maps. As for bunny hopping... I've never played an FPS without it. |

Much bigger lore can be debatable , since halo has like 17 novels/comic books . The lore sucks in the games though the only way to know anything about it is if you read the books . Here's is a fan created timeline |

Sir, I humbly invite you to peruse the Eve wiki at your leisure. For example, there may only be two EVE lore books written, but there are a large number of fan-written novellas, completely lore-compliant. There are also articles on all the pirate factions, how they formed, what their aims are, what their motivations are, and ultimately how twisted they are. The four factions have even deeper lore, going back to the formations of their respective factions, the financial, militaristic and political structure, their preferred weapon types (cut down by corporation, in some cases) and ship types, and considering that player actions themselves have an affect on the lore... Let's just say that the scope of it is epic.
I personally think that even out of game content considered, think that New Eden has one of the richest lores that any game currently has. Although, that said, The Elder Scrolls is way up there, considering all the expansions that have been launched with the game, and the diversity of the races. |

Actually there are two Eve novels (Emperyean Age and Burning Life) and one Eve/Dust novel (Templar One).
But yes, the lore of New Eden is much deeper, and we have barely only scratched the surface of what there is. |

The lore sucks in the games though the only way to know anything about it is if you read the books . Here's is a fan created timeline Sir, I humbly invite you to peruse the Eve wiki at your leisure. For example, there may only be two EVE lore books written, but there are a large number of fan-written novellas, completely lore-compliant. There are also articles on all the pirate factions, how they formed, what their aims are, what their motivations are, and ultimately how twisted they are. The four factions have even deeper lore, going back to the formations of their respective factions, the financial, militaristic and political structure, their preferred weapon types (cut down by corporation, in some cases) and ship types, and considering that player actions themselves have an affect on the lore... Let's just say that the scope of it is epic. I personally think that even out of game content considered, think that New Eden has one of the richest lores that any game currently has. Although, that said, The Elder Scrolls is way up there, considering all the expansions that have been launched with the game, and the diversity of the races.
I know of eve wiki and I dabbled in it time to time. But that can be said to really any established lore ; if you visit the halo wiki it explains the same things you have mentioned in depth , about how the factions formed , what their goals are , the technology of the advanced ancient races are , etc . Although it isn't all that dark like eve is , but they are a few interesting events, like how the covenant had their own order 66 as seen in halo 2 ( which came out before Star wars episode 3 ) . |

I dislike CoD, BF3, (Insert Modern Shooter Here). I play video games to get away from life. Giving me a game that takes place in the same timeframe (21st Century), is just not fun for me. I think BO2 is almost an exception though, because of the futuristic parts. But yea, I prefer games like Halo, Dust... Uh. Dust again? |

Gameplay wise: halo is far superior to dust.
Customization wise: Dust has some things that are better. But halo has/ had a balance that prevented an overpowered combo to be the thing that everyone would use.
Player count wise: At lease Halo is ABLE TO SUPPORT 8V8 GAMES WITHOUT LAG.( for the most part. :/ )
Oh, and it looks better. Except for DAT GAMMA LIGHTING. |

Dust 514 has bigger maps, better vehicles, badder guns, better-looking suits for ladies, long-distance range sniping, and more, you name it.
Dust 514 still ripped off the bunny hopping from Halo.... I don't think anyone would object to the bunnyhopping going away. I guess my only beef with the physics as they are is how "flighty" the gravity is.
Hey the suits gotta be aerodynamic for those drops |
