I would like to start off by saying to CCP and the player base that I am a fan of CCP. I play EVE. I love EVE. and I love CCP. That being said I have been in this game for almost a year now. since the beta and now in the "full build"
A little background on me. I am a logi, have been for a while and I love it. and I can't do it anymore. No one can.
I am second in command of the corporation "Nova Corps Marines" and act as the Director of Recruitment.
I loved the concept of this game, I loved the thought of seeing New Eden through a new lens, and quite frankly, I'm tired of it. CCP I have stood by this game, gone to personal friends to bring them in, and ranted to anyone who would listen that this game would change the face of console gaming and the FPS genre in general. You have made a liar of me CCP. I don't appreciate that. With the Uprising launch (premature in my opinion) every single bit of diversity this game had died. As of now there is only one viable play style in this game. Medium frames (assault variants if specialized) with assault rifles. Heavys are not viable due to the speed issues and the tactical AR's eating through them like candy. Scouts are not viable for similar reasons. As a logi I scream at everyone who will listen that logi's are not viable because I CANNOT keep everyone healed, rezzed, and stocked with ammo. period. I cannot be a viable piece of combat because of how squishy I am I cannot be up close, but I have to be close to the action to keep people healed and so I need a mid range weapon. There are only two weapons that do this. The mass driver and the tactical AR. The Mass Driver is not usable in its current state in my opinion and the Tactical AR is about to get nerfed to all hell and so it is almost not viable.
This game lured me in with its promises of diversity, and roles, and a promise of something better than just the standard pew pew of every other bloody FPS in the damn world. and it isn't bloody there.
I love you CCP. I do. and when I saw the fanfest streams about DUST 514 my "nerdboner" as CCP Helmer put it was raging.
and then Uprising hit. I ceased being able to logi. I ceased being able to use a mass driver. I lost half of the things I had due to the skill changes.
Long story short this game isn't fun anymore. And that makes me sad. because I love this game. I love CCP. I love New Eden.
but...DUST...DUST just isn't fun anymore...
and so I ask CCP, the CPM, and anyone who might be able to answer this question that no one else can seem to.
When will this game be fun again?
When will I have a place in this game again?
When will anyone not running assault suits and AR's have a place in this game again?
Why is all of the content promised during Chromosome and before not here?
These are the big questions I have. CCP needs to do nothing but look at the member count per day to realize how much they have lost. CCP Helmer teased us with the thought of opening the door at fanfest, I laughed because it was funny.
But in reality. Where in the hell are the promises that CCP gave us during Chromosome and before, the teases about PVE and MTAC's and other things.
Where is the fun CCP?
Where is the "Sandbox" that was lauded and held on a pedestal at Fanfest?
