Same game engine changes and everything... Oh please, this is in no way to the same extent as that trainwreck. DUST 514 announcement demo: DUST 514 demo \| DUST as it actually is Better explosions, textures, and effects, it's a different game engine than final product (ended up using Unreal 3. Unreal 4 available but too expensive for game, I guess.). Vehicle control is a lot better in demo. Let's see anyone in DUST right now driving like they do in this demo. Graphics a lot better in demo. Lots of features in demo omitted from final game. AI doesn't exist in final game. Developer commits to continued updates and new features. Has yet to overcome most of the original criticism, or match their demo. Aliens: Colonial Marines in-progress demo: Demo vs Final Product Better explosions, textures, and effects, it's a different game engine than final product (ended up using Unreal 3. Unreal 4 available but too expensive for game, I guess.). Graphics a lot better in demo than final. Lots of features in demo omitted from final game. AI is garbage in final game. Developer commits to continued updates and new features. Has yet to overcome most of the original criticism, or match their demo. It's the same thing. I'm not trying to diss DUST too much... I want to see it successful. I've spent a decent amount of rl cash to support it too. However, you have to look at the reality of the situation: DUST is free. My time is not. If the game isn't good RIGHT NOW, it's not a good game. Maybe it can be a good game in the future... but it needs to get there real quick and there's not much sign of anything but little tweaks coming up in the near future. I'm here for the long haul, because I play EvE. If it wasn't for EvE, I doubt I would give DUST a second chance.

I guess that begs the question "than why hasn't that happened?"

I guess that begs the question "than why hasn't that happened?" The Carbon engine is from 2003... older than the Unreal 3 engine....explain that one... If you're looking to me for explanations, you're looking in the wrong place my friend. I'll say this though: the Carbon Engine looks WAY better than Unreal 3. It IS way better, in fact. So, yes, CCP is WAY out in front with their technology. They DO have an incredible engine that's way ahead of it's time. They do have a phenomenal art department, one of the best in the entire industry imho. Most amazingly they are the exclusive producer and owner of Carbon. Yet DUST is a jinky unreal 3 game. Explain THAT one to me...
