wow haven't seen you on in a while... guess that's why. any chance we will get feedback from the devs on whats actually happing? or just more road walls of soon and we will think abouts.

The thing is I really enjoyed myself. Despite what problems Dust has I still have a lot of fun. Everything may not be rosy, but in the end I think that Dust 514 is still something worth putting time into, investing into, and coming back to.

As long as CCP supports this game and keeps iterating that is going to be one of this game's strong suits. People may go to this game and that for a while, but Dust will still be waiting for them when they come back. I do believe our voices matter and that this community matters. With those voices, when people come back after a break or peeking into other games Dust will be better and better.

The key for Dust's future is that the march of progress continue, that changes as they come down the pipe are clearly communicated to the players both in-game and out and that the communication between the players and devs always remains a two way street. Dust has to keep improving so as the iterations keep coming players will come back and fall in love with the game again.

I'm willing to fight for that future and I refuse to let all the blood, sweat, and tears from the early stages of closed beta to now go quietly in the night. It's going to be a long road and it will have its ups and downs, but I'll be happy to travel down it with this community and with all those I've come to know along the way.

I took a break and tried Planetside 2. I can say I actually like dust Better, Planetside seemed like a BIG vehicle fest with Snipers every where to me. While the large maps are more intriging, I like Dust gameplay better and the graphics in Dust are better IMO.

Pretty much my experience palying PS2 also. If you're not part of a tank zerg, you're a victim of it.

Are air vehicles nerfed or something?

but tanks also don't cost anything to deploy it, just for unlocking in PS2 as I have heard.

Air is in a bad spot. VN ZOE and TR Lockdown make MAX AA extremely strong, coupled with lock-on missiles and Skyguard tanks (I'm OK with AA tanks). Any area with more than a dozen people is a no-fly zone.

that this community matters.

You start off with access to all vehicles with stock guns (still costs resource points to spawn), but to change any guns / upgrade it costs an absurd amount of cert points. Plus they're about to massively increase resource costs on vehicles to push resource boosters / premium membership.

sweet might see that when PS4 comes then maybe, I love me some support roles; snipers, tanks, medic, suppression, artillery, and scouting. forgot all that mess with beaching and close-mid range combat and flight.

Tbh, there's really no roles in PS2 - you're either part of the zerg or you're feeding yourself to an enemy zerg. There's no middle ground. If you do manage to find a good fight, it'll last all of five minutes before a Sunderer comes along, spawns a mass of infantry, and farm you into the spawn point.

Well, that, or you suicide when you see a never ending column of tanks off in the distance coming down the road.

whats a sunderer? not played it yet because its only on pc right now.

I understand that people are busy over E3 and the Boat Festival and running up to a new patch but communication is seriously important and hugely appreciated.

We do indeed have those planned together with a major Dev Blog for you guys to highlight everything you need to know about 1.2 Patch. The moment they are all fully assembled and ready to go, we will deliver them to you.

Any tangible time frame beside soon(tm)? I am hungry...

There. Fixed that for you! ;)

unfortunately it will be a few weeks after 1.2 comes out.

Plain "soon" implies it to be faster than soon(tm) indeed but how faster? Sooner than Friday this week? Or later but sooner than Friday next week?

Of Course you're having fun because you either LLAV smash ppl or forge snipe ppl on a tower.

Must be fun abusing the mechanics of a broken game.

aww come on now, shooting lightning bolts from the heavens is the closest thing us fat boys can get to being greek gods... well that and being first in line at your local Golden Chorral on Sirloin Sundays...

needs to be on PS4
till then dont see anyone who is gettin a PS4 coming back to DUST in its current state

I always thought that moving Dust to PS4 was going to be a priority. I do think it should be part of a whole plan to keep Dust progressing forward.

http://evenews24.com/2013/02/23/an-imperfect-look-at-dusts-future-on-the-playstation-4/

The caveat needs to be that Dust needs to be able to played across both consoles, but my thought was that cross-console play between the PS3 and PS4 would be a given.

Of Course you're having fun because you either LLAV smash ppl or forge snipe ppl on a tower.

its AV weapon fat boy grrrrrrrrrr

That's the problem, there is almost no real communication. It's all "cool stuff will happen eventually".

Forgetting about balance issues, there are bugs and playability issues that really need to be fixed. Are they being looked into? Are they coming in the next patch? Are they not a priority? I couldn't tell you because we as players don't know.

Things need to change with the 1.2 patch.

Aiming fixes aren't coming in 1.2, but we're looking to get them out soon after (as in 1.3 or later). There will be gun balancing in 1.2 and we look forward to your feedback on that.

I agree with IWS on this point. If there is cross-platform play between the PS4 and PS3 than there is no point in having it on the PS4, as the PS3 will continue to hold the game back and no advancement can be made.

imho, they need to abandon the PS3 as fast as possible. Its clearly holding this game back... a lot.

actually it great you should try it..makes dust allot less infuriating in some ways ...a lot more infuriating in others

CCP has a history of working on several systems and at even different graphical levels.

Just take a look at them running Eve on Mac and PC (previously Linux as well).

I think if there is a way forward that can include running Dust on PS3 and PS4 that should be the route to go. I really don't feel CCP should leave behind folks of PS3 out of hand.

If they can get Unreal to behave itself, then yeah, support for Dust on the PS3 can go as long as they want... but if they can't, there is no getting around needing a new engine... besides abandoning the PS3.

I really do feel that the communication needs to improve. I think that they understand this more and more every day. I really do feel that the devs will take action on this and improve.

It's not instant. Nothing ever is, but I'm willing to hang on for the ride.

+1 kain... Glad to see you again

My tank surely missed your Forge >.<

Best part of being a forge gunner is coming up against a challenging tank or dropship.

its been over 4 weeks, do you really think its ok to just leave everyone completly in the dark after all the time we put into your game? and even though were still here playing in this bug fest mess? without us playing wtf have you got? seems you get the respect on the forums you deserve.... None

I love to smash evil red dots with the LAV. I put good sp into logistics LAV and I exercise my right to smash red dots and switch to the blaster for quick kills (And deaths haha)

lolumadbro

I would never promote taking a break.

Game needs all the numbers it can get
