"So Lance, you're telling me these 2 games aren't the same?"
Well I thought by now people would have noticed this, but for some reason EVE Elitist keep referencing EVE like it's the same game, and making DUST into EVE is the solution to every problem in DUST atm.
I'm very much aware they have the same devs, share the same universe, and even on the same server, but lo and behold, they're not the same game, thus they shouldn't be treated the same.
OMG! REALLY?!!! Yes, really.
PC gamers =/= Console gamers.
FPS balancing =/= MMO RPG balancing (Balancing EVE based on data vs Balancing DUST based on data)
The sooner CCP realizes this, is the sooner DUST can become a far better game. Trying to please people that click on boxes, and look at spreadsheets while preaching "HTFU" and chanting "Welcome to New Eden" will be the downfall of this game.
Looking at only data while ignoring feedback, is a guaranteed way of unbalancing the game. Duvolle Tact. is fine btw
CCP has been getting better and reaching out to the community, +1 to them. CPM members have for the most part been active...although some of them you don't ever see.
But yeah. Making DUST into EVE is not the solution to the problems in DUST atm...well unless you wanna make a point and click a box FPS

One could argue that the sooner you realize that CCP as a development studio has a unique way of doing things that you need to come to terms with.
Furthermore, having knee-jerk emotional reactions to gaming balance without looking at data is a quicker route to failure than making informed, educated decisions. |

What are asking for here exactly? It sounds like you want a CoD/BF clone with a placebo spread sheet. Can I get some details on what you want? |

Just to make you rage a little. It is not eve it is New Eden and some things should carry over. Eve is in the name and what not. Chill out dude, all these problems will work out over time. We are here for the long run and we want a robust, deep and hardcore shooter. Sit back, collect tears and enjoy the game as it is and what it will be. |

You've got a little bit of brown CoD/BF on your nose.

Pretty sure I said looking @ data while ignoring feedback...
so yeah, just looking at data for a FPS has not been working out well has it? |

Not sure why you're trying to call me out on something. I'm simply asking for articulated details.
PS: I used to like CoD and still play BF from time to time. I play Dust more because it's different. |

I am curious to what they want. The devs listen and then implement fixes and I am very confused what he wants the game to be like because I thought DUST is what it is and not something game. We are different than eve in lots of different ways, I just don't get it I guess. |

It's working fine. Your timelines for perfection is unrealistic.
CCP's development style suits gamers that want something more than just the run of the mill clones in their genre.
They revolutionized the space sim game and have laid the groundwork to do something great in the fps space. There is no doubt it will take time. |

Simple really... is only one "recipe" you can follow to make a FPS... the fact that everyone follows the same recipe, doesn't means that you "Copying" other people... You just using the working "Formula", that has been effective for DECADES of gaming. |

right... so taking them months to fix aiming falls perfectly into their timing I guess.
Also gun balancing issues...nah, CCP has their data for that...which btw, they've messed up a couple times while applying numbers.
I've always been cynical about how CCP handles their game for the console crowd. So you can be as optimistic as you want, while I stay as cynical as I want.
I'll give them props, but I'll point out flaws. Some people just all out CCP fanboys... *cough*eveplayers*cough* which is doing nothing to help DUST. |

You wonder why people tell you to 'go play cod' when you're advocating that games have to follow the 'cod' formula to be a 'working formula'
If you want cod, go play cod, i saw an advertisement for a new one. Meanwhile, I'll be here hoping for a revolutionary gaming experience that redefines the formula. *fingers crossed* |

Did i say CoD ?... i talking about DECADES ago ... when the 1st FPS games where made, everyone still uses that formula...

Yes, it falls in their timeline.
Yes gun balancing issues will be a constant progression. There will always be something that's the 'best'. It takes time to flesh these out and react appropriately. I suspect the delay is more political then technical.
You are very cynical. Yes.
Please point out the flaws you see, no one is stopping you, in fact I encourage it. I respect your opinion, I would hope that you may come around to respecting others opinions for the direction of the game but that'll take time. Don't worry, I care about your salvation. I'll work hard to have the necessary patience to rear you in the proper direction. /hug

CCP has a history of ignoring the formula and defining it's own genre.
Hang on Dorothy, this might be a bumpy ride!
P.S. Can't anyone use != as NOT EQUALS around here? |

You mean having first person perspective and shooting. Hmm, are you trying to argue a point that you know is wrong just to save face?
I think we can both agree that if you have any understanding of the genre as you purport CoD is the single most successful franchise. One could only assume that's what you meant. Otherwise your similarities are just what the acronym for the genre dictate. :-/

Out of curiosity, the f here is the discussion point?
What features and mechanics are those that make that 'formula' that is so succesful?
Ones that DUST apparently don't follow.
edit:
Or rephrase above question; What features, mechanics should be ommited from DUST to make it conform this 'FPS wonder formula'? |

Just because it is popular doesn't mean it is good or correct. All other fps have the same problems but their games have a 6-8 month life span and it is not a big deal. We were in beta linger than most games live and release may not be the game we wanted but it is the game we have. Starting off a new thread calling eve players stupid isn't the best way to make friends or engage in conversations that are supposed to be constructive. |

looks at current tank/ dropship / gun balance issues...
nah they listen
Don't think you know how many threads were made about tanks during chromosome...NONE were taken into consideration.
Heavy + HMG? lol... that showed me CCP's data is based on pubstomping noobs. They listen yes... and no |

Judging from your likes, you have either just joined this game or dont post on the forums like myself. Lance and I have been playing Dust since the very first closed beta build, so we know how CCP develops their game over time, however as he said it is suited for PC gamers. I was optimistic once, like yourself, all the promises of a deeper FPS, all the stories and awesome mind boggling devblogs. But over time, I realised these weren't coming any time soon, its just how CCP develops their game, you know. I've been waiting for this game to become something else, but at this pace, it really won't any time soon, more like soonTM soon. Groundwork is all they have, it isn't an MMO at its core, it is an FPS, so something needs to change. They no longer have the closed beta shield to hide behind, patches to problems like aiming and Tac AR damage need to be dished out faster than they currently are. |
