Dust Sandbox?
Those two words do not belong in the same sentence as of yet.
Hopefully one day we'll get a real sandbox, but we don't have that yet, all we have is "INSTANT BATTLES!!!!" |

But in the long term there is a lot that will change. They have said multiple times that they intend on creating larger scale battles. As Dust moves to more capable hardware they will be able to implement more ambitious things.
Be patient. Yeah, thinking of the potential of what can be done on the PS4 with this game is what I hold onto. Seriously no sarcasm.
I'm hoping that they will move to the PS4, though TBH, I don't plan on being one of the necessary suckers (first adopters), so I also hope they keep it alive on the PS3. |

Yeah, if the PC corps really worried about the "sandbox" they'd be asking CCP to open up their Districts to be freely travelled by anyone willing/able to make it there. Give us a real sandbox where we can go wander aimlessly around someones District interfering with their ability to PvE (or their ability to passively generate Clones/ISK), staging hit and run guerrilla operations designed to harass and demoralize our opponents without mounting a full-on Assault on their Districts.
Give us a "boots on the ground" method for BlOps dropping the Blueberry Muffin carebears, allow us to attack them on their land without grinding their structures. Let us seek "guerrilla gudfites" on their land without seeking to actually grind them out, let us bleed them through harassment and slow-burning insurgency rather than mounting a siege.
Now those would be some sandbox options, 1000% better than the current ISK printing "sandbox". |
