Rogue drones PVE game mode was suppose to be out in 2012, that is what CCP said in Fanfest 2012. Non-temperate planets like lava planets were suppose to be released this year. Neither of these things are even on their revealed list of near-future (6 months or less, well 5 months now) additions to come. I want to get excited about things they say are coming in the future, but so many things they mentioned forever ago still isn't here.
Many years ago when they first announced this game, they talked about an MCC commander that directs his team RTS-style, yet it still isn't here. In various interviews they announced that we would be able to deploy installations into the battlefield, but that still isn't here. They wrote on their official website that Dust would have 48 player battles, but I don't see these fictional battles; the information on the main website is (currently) a lie. They announced over a year ago that we would have this "conquest" game mode that is bigger than Skirmish, where is that?
Don't be surprised if the other racial dropsuits, racial vehicle variants, racial rifles, all those cool new specializations, and everything else that is suppose to come in 5 months or less end up taking more than a year to arrive.
Abandon all expectation, and become bitter. |

Abandon all expectation, and become bitter. Our faith has certainly taken a shitkicking, hasn't it? I came into work today and two of the younger guys who were from a part of the gaming spectrum fairly far from the DUST market both mentioned to me how DUST was getting hammered in reviews. All I could do was admit that the low scores were justified. We need a stable game client in which we can aim and move without constantly fighting the game. Those are the lowest expectations i can possibly imagine. We've reached rock bottom.
Yeah, the game really doesn't even have the basics fully working. We need another Chromosome, a patch about fixing things as opposed to new content. |

I just watched the CCP Presents thing from 2012's Fanfest, they said 2012 for PVE, 2013 for exotic planet types and MTACs. |

Proto AV without available without proto vehicles
Mass driver is crap, unnecessarily nerfed
Laser is crap, long range weapon with a damn ironsight?
HMG is crap
Light suits are just a novelty
We have olnly 6 maps, and only 3 outposts after all this time, yet we're suppose to pretend we're fighting on thousands of unique planets. Not enough environment textures, skies, surface infrastructure, or outposts to keep things interesting, and the actual maps are boring unlike the canyon map we first saw in Skirmish 1.0
The game modes is likely the worst part IMO. Only 2 modes, and generic boring ones at that; adding a bunch of variations of the same damn modes doesn't count as new modes. We had something great with Skirmish 1.0, but instead of balancing and fixing it, they decided to scrap it completely.
Frame rates still suck, still hit detection problems, still crappy controls. |

I haven't given up, but I have been feeling this way for a long time, since even before Uprising; I knew 2 more maps wouldn't fix the problem of variety, and I knew some renamed Skirmish variant didn't count as an actual new mode. What I didn't know was that balance would be ruined so badly, nor that assault dropships would be so terrible. |

I was kinda ashamed at how crappy the game looked when people asked me what I was playing. Now the game looks good enough to show off and people are more interested. For me the visual boost of Uprising made it worth all the other issues they caused.
I wouldn't have a problem if they just had some actual variety of game modes, especially since I got a taste of the original Skirmish; makes the current one look like crap. We only have 2 real game modes.
More importantly, I wouldn't have a problem if they didn't make promises they couldn't keep. |

Still have not shaken all of the CCP crap out of your ears yet I see. Or maybe you just have not removed you head from CCP's brown hole yet in order to shake all that crap out of your ears. Yep just another CPM "matter factly" generic ass uneducated response .. I would not discribe it as uneducated, I would more describe like a, " CCP brain washed, stars in the eyes kid, becuase he feels like he is a CCP cool kid, because he meet them all at fanfest and had a beer or two them, and now he thinks they are like familey and CCP loves him, and he does not want to shame the big happy circle yerking family dynamics by tell CCP the truth about how broken this game is," response.
Guys, there is no need to bash the CPM. We can disagree on things without all that. Lets try to have a civilized whine-fest |

This is the problem. That female scout's breasts look good under dynamic lighting, but I have to fight the controls and terrain more than the guy in front of me. CCP needs to get their priorities straight. Just look at the Feedback section. I've seen more dev responses to stuff about trees and flowers over core gameplay issues. It's very discouraging when you articulate an important point that would benefit the game as a whole, but it gets handwaved for stuff like custom dropsuit colors and lens flare.
To be fair its not those same devs that work on cosmetics that work on core gameplay so its not like it takes attention away from core gameplay, and Wolfman has been working to fix the controls (click here). |
