though the 'full release' is a strictly formal event... can you say its 'live on tranquility' with zero TRUE interaction between EVE and DUST?

orbitals drop regardless of whos in space in MERC battles... not certain about PC...

Economies are not linked... they cant even interact... Merc Wallet is inaccessible to EVE side CEOs, and none of the EVE wallets are accessible to Mercs...

theres no player driven economy... unless you count that we farm isk in battles to buy pre-priced loot from NPC merchants who have INFINITE stockpiles of EVERYTHING...

they make mention of PVE content that is supposed to have deep and meaningful ties to EVE market and econ, but im sure thats comming 'soon tm' ... in 2015...

not to mention all the other *FEATURES* we have... like respecs that spawn hundreds of millions of isk for no reason into a large number of players wallets... broken squad order mechanics... broken needles? they seem to be working 'better' the last couple days but i havent bothered pulling mine out for the last couple weeks... not to mention all the hiccups im hearing about in PC battles...

they released uprising bearing high hopes... but instead push out a product that wasnt just 'lipstick on a pig' as someone else posted, but they managed to make the gameplay feel WORSE in one massive patch... that was called a live build...

i feel that its safe to say that this game is FAR from worthy of being called a live title, even just for formalities sake.
