Oh look, another doomsday thread.

Can I haz your stuffs?

Having played games since the first COD does not make you a veteran.

The fact that CCP has milked this community for as much money as it has already with a game that looks like this at "launch" makes me have uncomfortable faith in their ability to keep this game afloat :/

HI, BILLY MAYS HERE!

Caps Lock


Caps lock is not cool. Caps lock should never, ever, be used to convey your point. If you can't communicate your outrage, without using caps lock. You need to stop what you are doing, and just think. Think hard, and try to figure out what it is you are trying to say. The use of your brain will help you in the long run.

Train The Brain


Think, and think often. Think before you speak. Think before you type. After-all, it's thought you are trying to transfer to your your words. Without thinking, your words and your speech are hollow. Thoughtless.

BOOOGER! YOU ARE MORE NEEDED HERE THAN YOU KNOW; EVEN WITHOUT THE GREEN!!!!

I just played some wicked CO-OP Gauntlet: Dark Legacy on the PS2, and I would disagree with that statement. Dust looks way better than a PS2 game.
I do however think it's sad that DUST doesn't have a female sorcerer with a gas mask and angel wings running around spewing missiles while making funny noises.

booger it's... kind of not the same on these forums man........

BOOGER 4 CPM

Too true. We're already at a stage where it's EoN vs CRONOS vs NF. PHI and RND are notable mentions too... But essentially, there are 5-6 Ateams, and when sh!t gets real in PC, that's all that will play. Now, that's all good, until PC boils down to 2 corps/alliances. Then it'll be the same fight, with the same teams, over and over.

Without more players at the nOOb level there will NEVER be enough proper competition to keep this game alive. Say 1/50 players is "competative" and puts up with Dust. And bothers to do PC against higher SP, top gear, HIGHLY experienced Ateams. That's 800 players joining the game just to get a new team to play vs any of the big boys.

I just don't think the game can support itself without PvE and industry. People can mess about with that stuff while gaining SP, forming contacts ect. PC isn't "competative battles" it's a lucky dip to see who gets the servers. But I continue to play, because of the contacts I have made over the last year. It's kinda like all the old MAG beta vets who still put it on now and again.

I think that In the long term, Dust is going to struggle to attract those new players. There's really nothing very attractive about Dust with 3 exceptions. Chat, constant clan battles, and "potential".

BOOGER IMPROVED THESE FORUMS ALREADY DESPITE NO COLOURING

Edit: Seriously though, I'd hate to see this go the way of MAG. MAG had so much potential...
With EvE helping to finance it, I don't think it'll collapse for a good while yet, but it seriously needs a lot of improvement.

the failure of many a good game has been awesome gfx and crap everything else. ccp works in reverse and in the case of eve it worked and i have no doubt at all they will succeed with dust.

eve is not a finished game. it has been in development for more than 10 years and will be until the servers get turned off sometime in the distant future. I'm certain dust will follow suit

I don't think he was referring to the graphics.

the graphics are, by far, the least of the game's myriad of major issues.

Step 1: Learn about CCP.
Step 2: Learn about EVE.
Step 3: Realize CCP have sunk too much time and effort to LET DUST die.
Step 4: Give me your stuff. Because this joke never gets old.
Step 5: Uninstall the game and go away.

Just another thread full of virgins acting like someone put a gun to their head and forced them to play this FREE game. Give it a rest already. If you don't enjoy it just delete it and move along. Your whines and complaints are pointless. Oh and by all means go ahead and discredit me as a fanboy.

What's that? No valid argument? Insulting people who argue against you while doing your best to remain Ignorant of the facts and who CCP are and what they do? How they work? If CCP close Dust, it won't be because of the PS3, or you, or 'gunplay' or whatever supposed FPS teenage 'veterans' pull out of their rear. It'll be because _EVE_ would be no longer was able to sustain it.

You, Sir, are insignificant to CCP and their plans for Dust. In two years this game will be both on PC and PS4 and if we're lucky, grander and larger than Planetside 2 can ever hope to be.

Does it have problems? Yes. Hence why I have you step 1 up there. Though you won't be here for that. You'll either have been banned or pulled into another "INNOVATE TRIPLE A SHOOTER OMG" ... I hear the next CoD has a dog. I bet you'll love that. Right here though? You won't be missed.

Enjoy your rage, little man.

Is that the best you've got kiddo? Did you figure out how to delete the game yet? Its complicated, I know. But I'm sure you'll find a FPS out there you might actually enjoy, there's plenty to choose from.

LOL

I've had 2 years of Booger, y'all are getting worked so badly and we're laughing our asses off, along with all the
other old school MAG forum vets :D

There's so much more to come and I can't wait. Booger these guys are EASY, not MAG forums easy but I mean girl who goes out with no underwear on easy.

...who are you again?

If you say so buddy, I don't really care what you play. Just wonder if maybe you could find a more constructive use of your time. Like finding more creative ways to jack off to vin diesels triceps maybe. Troll away kiddo, its entertaining the rest of your middle school friends. :)

What makes you think, that the player count is going to be higher in the PS4 ? Kids this days.....

AUR only. Damn p2w fan boys.

+1 agreed. MAG was a great game out of the gates. This game has not progressed in the right direction since the beginning. I don't care if it was a ''beta''. It was still out for people to play. MAG was more squad/team based and if you play with randoms on here you get stomped. Trust me I will let you all know when/if Dust surpasses what MAG was. The only thing Dust has right now is funding. See what happens when they run out of it.

You are a weakling. I could snap your spine in half with my feet. Fight me. I'll make it relatively painless. You can die knowing your body will be donated to science. Specifically, the experiment of "will my pet ostriches eat a human body?" It's an important experiment.

HE CALLED YOU KIDDO! KIDDO!!!

The only problem I see is that these sort of declines are a bit of a feedback loop. How long will players keep playing a game that is fundamentally broken and clearly unfinished? How low does the player count have to go before CCP stops devoting man hours to a sinking ship?

Just because they've had success with ONE game doesn't mean they will be successful with everything else they do.

The promise of this game is there, and it's why most of us are here, but at what point does the return in the investment stop paying the bills? If there are only say, 500 people online at any given time, how much money will they be willing to spend on further development? I mean, the game is already being developed at a snail's pace, much slower and it might as well be considered to have come to a complete halt.

The game has been in beta for well over a year, and we still basically have 4 maps, half the gear, and so much lag, frame rate problems, glitches, bugs, etc that it's rare to get an entire squad of six into more than 1 or 2 matches in a row without someone having game breaking problems. Extrapolate that problem across the 6 or so squads in each match and its almost a foolish to believe you EVER really get to play a match where everyone's game is running smooth and things are a fair fight.

If it takes them another 3-6 months just to iron this out (as a realistic timetable based on the last year of development), how may people will be left shooting each other with TACs on these 4 maps?

The promise of "SOON" can only last so long when it's in regards to basic playability.

Many of us came here for 64 vs. 64 matches on "procedurally" created 20km terrains, with tons of character customizations performing different battlfield roles, and where our alliances and dealings directly effect a persistent world, but right now they can't even get 16 vs. 16 on a small handful tiny static maps (that aren't even well designed) and the balance is so out of whack that 95% of all players who have any sort of clue use almost identical load outs.

It's just not even coming close to what CCP have claimed to be trying to do.

Has the game died yet? I'm getting tired of running for cover every time the boy who cried wolf tells me that the sky is falling!

LOL

I ringer for DBD the other day just to fight BHD, he wasn't there

it's not the graphics thats the problem, it's the fact were having micro freeze frame rate issues inside of vehicles with these last gen graphics..

It was in Dust silly you. BHD Don't have a single district

yea but when i go play zombies with my coworkers, i'm not as hyped as they are, but can understand how they get hooked and COD plays without frame rate issues at more than 20fps.. i can understand why they play it, but still i'm into dust despite the frame rate issues, i see the potential of dust while looking at the present glaring issues while adapting to uprising nerfs, and as result have a love/hate for dust.

This thread gives me a nose bleed, in my foot.
