This topic is long over due in my opinion. Pretty much everything here is someone complaining about all the things that are wrong with the game. That's why today I am going to highlight some the things you did right!
Theme and story I'm going to start here because I feel that it is one of the strongest points in dust. Where most games try to tell you fight "for the good of man kind" or because "if you don't who will?" Dust says "Fight for whatever you feel like fighting for" and Dust can do that because unlike most games the story of EVE is (for the most part) player driven.
Unique gameplay and mechanics Now this is where Dust truly shines. Dust has The Best squad play I've seen in any modern day FPS. It also has a well thought out skill tree. We don't have an open market yet but if is anything like the one in EVE Online, we in for a treat.
IT'S BETTER THAN BLACK OPS! In fact dust is much better than most modern FPS games, but for today's purposes I'll just be comparing the two games(black ops and Dust). The maps are larger than in black ops, Matches support more players than black ops, and with black ops you pay $60 for a 2 hour campaign, a handful of multiplayer maps with the same three game modes in 20 different coats of paint, and a crude zombie mode that looses it appeal after half an hour of play. Dust lacks the AI of a campaign or "zombie mode" but it FREE!
So here's a sum of all the pros +free game +Team based gameplay +player driven story +detailed skill tree +large maps +continuously evolving +maps that feel different each time you play +respectable graphics +voice chat with 18< people =Awesome Game
But want makes this game truly great are the people who made it, I'm talking about you CCP Gang all you Devs are awesome. Most devs would just give up if they had to put up with all this QQing but not you guys, and for that I thank you :)
If you have some thing nice to say about Dust or its Devs plz post here, other wise move along this is no place for QQ's like you

I'll get you started on your CON list: -Aiming / controls -Framerate -Poor Graphics -Hit detection -Skill points More than make up for lesser gaming skill (imbalanced) -Lack of maps and game modes -Many weapons are way subpar as compared to others (imbalanced) -Instant road kills no matter the case -Switching weapons unreliable -"Sticky" terrain -Contact grenades -Matchmaking -Counter hacking obj gives no points You have much more to add to complete this list... |

Xi, kindly go away
the playerbase is a plus on its own, because i've been hearing alot of players talking about their MAG days, meaning it has drawn in one of the most hardcore of FPS games player base.
and the actual CCP team is damned awesome, and hard working, i would like to not count how many days these guys will have to give up fixing the issues we bring up |

I like the freedom that you can do your own thing. I like the depth of the skill tree, and the ongoing evolution of the whole game. It looks like I won't get tired of it. |

I'll try to help.
-AV nades ineffective -Nanohives that you throw out.... then just disappear before giving you ammo -Kill a guy who throws out Remote Explosives who can then respawn and kill you with them -Countless bugs -Devs who appear to have never played, not only a single FPS, but even their own game -An online community of fanatic players who love everything CCP gives them, no matter how flawed -Tons of useless dropsuit modules (who really uses high powered ones that aren't damage modifiers or shield extenders?) -Being able to throw a baseball further than most bullets in the game travel -Triage tools that favor the player who needs it least, usually one you're not even looking at -Sometimes vehicles blow up on arrival -Wonky spawn, particularly in Ambush, that put a single player in a group of enemies -Spawn camping still an issue due to remote explosives -When hacking, on occasion, it will reset on you more than halfway through.... often resulting in a related death -Unable to hit certain snipers even though they are visible and in your sniper sights -Rewarding AFK farmers with SP for sitting in MCC -Red line sniping from MCC -**** poor new player experience -Ordering a vehicle and having it stolen by a teammate.... especially ones you paid ISK for -Nonsensical skill requirements (for example.... being able to drive someone's tank, without you having the skill necessary skill requirements. You can't exchange weapons this way... but tankers can then call in 5 tanks for non-tankers to use) -Over hyped Eve Online connection... which is more or less non-existent

Man, I came in to get a different vibe from the usual. That the list of positives was so minimal from someone trying to play up the optimist angle the best they can just made me feel sad. |

You spend time trolling forums and playing a game that, at best, makes you sad? You should probably evaluate your life decisions.
Anyway, to the OP, thanks for reminding everyone of some of the reasons they are here.
Also, off topic posts can be reported, and considering this thread is about positive things about Dust, you should do so.
It's not like there aren't a million posts already where they can vent. Hell, they can even make their own.
They certainly don't need to pollute this thread. |

Truly I am a hollow and miscreant wretch, sir, that you divined as such from two sentences belies your infallible wisdom. Yours is a righteous cause as I now see and through the power of your rallies and reports the degenerates plaguing these forums shall surely be struck down by the hammer of justice.
My distaste for cloying self-righteousness aside, my disappointment is with much of what the game is. My hope is for what it may yet become. I was also hoping for a better write-up than I got from someone playing Devil's Advocate but I was perhaps being unrealistic with that expectation. As it was my thought process was roughly: 'disagree, disagree, disagree, patently false, disagree' and 'a poke in the eye with a sharp stick is better than CODBLOPS, that says nothing'.
As for things I do like, for one the Laser Rifle has some really cool mechanics. Dancing laser beams everywhere I also find aesthetically pleasing. Shame 'bout it's current state. |

Fine, I agree with some of your complaints. Take it to a different thread. |
