No you missed "CoD clone", "Dust is a vision. SOON", "Dust is an MMO not an FPS", "META!!!!!!"
Probably a lot more....Just click on my name and look at my posts...nearly every 3rd of 4th response has something along these lines. |

Seriously though that only hits part of the FPS community, I have played plentiful games that require skill (Black on PS2 anyone?) or planning and strategies (Battlefront and old Battlefield games how I miss you <3 ) It is however a relevant point nonetheless, Dust WAS created to break the mould of current kitten "here have your game fed with a spoon" gameplay  Also now comes the big question, what requires more patience, PS2 or Dust?
There is patience and there is grinding.
Arma takes crap tons of patience...and no grinding,.
Taking a 15 year or more old MMO trick that even World of Warcraft has largely abandoned does not make for a good MMOFPS |

Differnet = taking the 15 year old MMO trick of grinding and slapping it onto an FPS. |

It's also entirely their loss. And the game is better for it, to be honest. It's meant to be different, not your ordinary BF3 or COD, whether it rises above or simply stands alone in the sea of generic FPS games that are available, it was never meant to emulate any of them. It is a companion for EVE first, a shooter second.
Go watch the fanfest videos.
Lots of talk about Dust being a "AAA" shooter and an esport.
Also have you played the game? The maps, the vehicles, the FPS mechanics...all of it is near identical to BF3...only with crap controls bad maps and an SP/leveling/grinding system cut and pasted from EvE.
Would you idiots stop making claims that are just no there in the game play.
"CCP has a vision. Yippy!!"
Fine they have a vision...can we actually talk about the actual game we are playing now? or do we have navel gaze forever? |

People keep saying it is thinking man's shooter.
What are you thinking about that is so unique in Dust?
I sure hope you are not thinking that you are thinking when you spend Skill points in the skill tree....Tweeking numbers on a spread sheet in a computer in a computer simulation is not thinking...in fact the whole reason the universe invented spread sheets is because everyone wanted to not think about that garbage.
WTF are you even talking about when you say crap like "thinking man's shooter"? |

WTF are you even talking about when you say crap like "thinking man's shooter"? I see you took that literal. It means your average everyday casual COD run & gunner won't understand the concept of dust the first time he/she plays it. Hell, I had a hard time in the beginning figuring this game out. Then I started to understand with a little patience how it works. That's WTF I'm talking about smart ass. Maybe if you step outside your elitist world, you would know some of these gaming terms. The universe would be much better without you thinking about what I thought about.
Sooo...there is nothing literal that makes this game a thinking mans game? Only that a lobby FPS with an RPG leveling system slapped onto it confused you? Also i am pretty sure a CoD player can understand the concept of shooting people and spending points you earn into items and levels....i am also pretty sure most of them on the PS3 have tried the game and thought "this is it? Crap lobby FPS (just like CoD by the way) with a RPG leveling system slapped on it to....where are the scifi epic battles? where is the market system? Where is the persistent universe they keep talking about, why can't my gun hit that guy across the way? Why are all these idiots running around in the open? Why are my head shots doing nothing to them?....hell i will just go back to CoD at least the FPS is good in that game." |
