Not every console player relies on half-assed YouTube videos for reviews on a game. A good game is one that is built on word of mouth through close friends in real life who like to have a second opinion from someone who already tried it for a very long time. That said, I'm pretty sure Eve Online players had the same problem 10 years ago when everyone use to think that Eve Online was crap. Eve had bugs everywhere (even more than what dust currently has), lag was a constant issue especially with large batttles, the graphics use to be so bad that they were considered mediocre even 10 years ago, and many thought that the game's harsh and unforgiving nature would be its downfall. But the players toughened up and helped CCP with fixing many problems that Eve had. In fact, some of those veteran players were quickly hired by CCP because apparently they understood the mechanics of the game far more than what CCP use to know. As a result, a strong community emerged that resulted in better improvements for the game as a whole.
Because of this, the Dust community is what Dust 514 needs to grow. CCP does need to their part as well and ramp up communications as well as hammering out the bugs as much as possible, but overall the community is Dust's primary hope. |

Um, American is a nationality, not a race. |

Edit for maken. Why would you defend someone who clearly made a derogatory statement about a nation of people over the words he chose to call him out with? Thats just sad.
It's not a defense. It's an obvious error in grammar that people seem to use. The proper term he should have used would have been just simply "bigot" or "nationalist". But since the person went the extra mile and said "racist bigot" the meaning of the message changed.
I don't like being a grammar **** either, but when it comes to touchy subjects like this, people should know better. The only thing that offends me more than seeing someone call me a wet back is seeing someone fail as calling me a wet back the wrong way. If that person wants to offend me, they better do it right. |

Um, American is a nationality, not a race. defending an attack on a nation of people by pointing out the words chosen to point it out. you should run for politics, you seem to have the lack of morals needed. or maybe you think this thread needs to go down the "bash americans" path. you and your friend are right, the problem lies with american intelligence. brilliant
I hate politics dude. I am not defending anyone. The term "racist bigot" was just an incorrect term to use. If he just said "bigot" then I would have said nothing at all and moved on. |

Anyways, I place the blame on the mainstream gaming companies like EA, Activision, Epic Games, Infinity Ward, etc. for creating a culture within the gaming industry in which a portion of the console players have entitlement issues. Thankfullly, not all console players are that selfish and I hope in the future that Dust can finally show everyone everything that is wrong with the culture of the industry. |

I'm glad you left Bungie out of it... you might consider me a 'fanboi', but so far, they haven't done too much to account for this culture of entitlement. And I'm looking forward to Destiny, especially since it's slated for release on four different consoles. I do wish they'd make it on PC though
Thank you for reminding me. I completely forgot about Bungie. But for the sake of their dignity I'm not gonna get started with the glitches they created and left unresolved to this day. Even 343 Industries failed to resolve them. |

Hell, they don't even post their announcements in game, they put them here on a forum on a website that the large majority of the player population NEVER visits.
They don't explain squads, they don't explain corporations, they don't explain the game modes, they don't explain the gun mechanics, they don't explain OBJECTIVES, they don't explain supply depots, they don't explain spawning or uplinks, they don't explain ANY equipment, they don't explain shields vs armor, they don't explain vehicles... on and on and on... It's absolutely ridiculous. You're a member of Test you should feel ashamed for not knowing the answer to this. CCP makes MMOs that are about players organizing as much as possible themselves. Test was built to create community, tutorials, training aids, support, and common purpose for your pilots. It's not to big of a leap to expect you to do the same in dust. Jesus, no wonder you guys can't keep a coalition together. What a nonsense argument. I'm not the developer of the game, and I don't care how poorly made EVE is. If CCP wants an FPS F2P game on consoles to survive, they have to learn to actually develop videogames, not develop half a game and wait for players to develop the rest of it for them.
When was the last time you ever played Eve? Have you ever played Eve at all? |
