Please port dust to PC :)

I think it's more important for CCP Shanghai to get their studio structure up to par with CCP Reykjavik, so that we get the right content at the right time with the right communication and a shorter feedback loop for content iteration.

You would have thought that would have been happening already otherwise how did CCP think it was going to get the game done?

The restructure must be something more than that as the CPM comments about it were censored pretty quick by CCP.

To be honest the easiest way to shorten that loop given the completely out of whack TZ and distance is to remove it.

I too see PS2 on the PS4 affecting where people go to play their console F2P games. Especially as the PS4 will be getting Warframe and Blacklight Retribution.

God knows how many more F2P games Sony will announce at tomorrow's e3...

PS2 was server merging pretty hard last I checked. That's not a good thing btw.

Again, people thinking Planetside 2 is good just makes me laugh.

Take it from an Alpha Tester guys: abandon ship.

If you want a great example of how not to develop a game post-release, go check their Roadmap section and look at how all the features that really matter have been "Unscheduled", while stuff like cosmetic items and other new stuff to buy roll out constantly.

As it stands right now, Dust 514 has more metagame than it looks like Planetside 2 ever will.

I'm not talking about AWOXing, before anyone tries to say that. I'm talking about how FW matches influence the capture status of the system you play them in, or PC has you not just attack but actually capture and hold Districts, and recieve (slight) income from them. Already we have some Corps setting up means of contracting them to come in and fight for you for a fee, acting as true mercenaries.

When my outfit, The Enclave, spends 4 hours successfully shitting on every other outfit on Mattherson, I sometimes stick around after we finish Ops and most of us log off.

Everything we have accomplished is gone in an hour with nothing to show for it. Even if SOE finally gets their asses in gear and release continent-locking and actual functioning warpgates, you still don't actually achieve anything in the game. Up until now, it didn't even deliver on the promise of large-scale fights. Without the lattice system, ever since launch you could find maybe one fight on those 2000 player continents while everyone else went to find an unoccupied base and ghost-cap it for the XP.

Oh, and I should also note that with the lattice patch came the Zealot Overdrive Engine for the Vanu Sovereignty MAX, which they ignored ALL player feedback on on their public test server, and released into the game in such an overpowered state that most Vanu players Certed into it and it was impossible to really fight them.

Imagine a Proto Sentinel with a Six Kin Assault HMG that can move and strafe like an Assault suit, and you get the idea.

So, am I worried about PS2 taking players from Dust while its still hemorrhaging players and is only still populated due to crazy people like myself and a constant influx of poor saps who think they might actually have fun?

Nope.

Played planetside 2 four 4 hours last night, the largest fight I had was 5 (NC: my side) vs 10(VS) vs 15(TR) all trying to take this little blue hex in middle of nowhere.

The only reason I was playing was to see what my 4 months of grinding for a new camera controller launcher would do. I am extraordinary upset that half of the missiles it fires seemed to been made in china. Some don't come with the camera at all, some of them have their guidance fins break mid flight, and overall getting a headshot with this rocket doesn't kill any light infantry.

Also WTH is up with dead bodies still being called out on recon reports? Its getting annoying to see a name pop up that someone called out, you launch a rocket over the hill and its a dead person. This persists for more than one hour. Crown was literally littered with one guys name on ALL the turrets.

No matters the metagame elements , not matters anything that suround the game no matters hopw many cool options you can have
