dafaq did I just read. FPSmmo? You can place mmo where ever you like - this game still isn't massive OR linked to eve in a meaningful way to call it an expansion of it - we're just using the same background.

And don't let open beta players into feedback? What sort of crap talk is that? As if population isn't dying around here enough - now you want to censor people out of fear that their experiences in other FPS's might be spoken aloud here? A lot of non-casual players didn't get a chance to be in the closed beta - your generalization of our community is... let's just say wrong. Casuals should have a voice either way and CCP shouldn't be derailed to make good mechanics by it - it's not rocket science. Though judging from Uprising they make it seem like it is. And EVE players can offer nothing in the way of improving FPS mechanics, so why single them out as being useful around here?

And PC is NOT working fine. It's trash. How many corps have pulled out or flatly refuse to even try? Look how many corps are in the top 300 with 100+ members - then look how many are in PC even with space opening up and being sold cheap.

The rest of your post was you brown nosing CCP as if they need a pat on the back for uprising after-all the rage. They don't - haven't you seen there HTFU video? They should probably take there own advice.

I know you're just trying to be positive - but did it have to come with all this non-sense?

I'd rather do this in public. You got likes because you sugar-coated your words with faith. I'm way too synster to see any of that and take what you say at face value - so I'd enjoy your rebutal if you have any to my comments rather then calling me a troll and using snide remarks to back up your claims.

And before you call me a doom and gloomer again:

Don't worry about it. I just figured it out.

The reason why QG is willing to put his faith in CCP is because he is by nature a very trusting person. That is why he expects people to take him at his word when he says he will pay you for ringing.

"Hey, everyone here, send me a mail that says We beat the IMPs, and I will make sure you get paid"

is the same as

"We are working on a dev blog, it will be out soon"

And just like people like me stopped showing up for STB fights, so will people stop showing up for Dust releases.

If you make promises and don't keep them, no one gives a flying carp what you say later on.

Nothing against you QG, but the whole struggle to get paid for being a mercenary, in a game about being a mercenary was always ridiculous, and helped drive me out of PC. The fact that the only way I was going to get paid was by being a whiny ***** about it just made me say F it and go back to solo pubbing, where I didn't have to worry about the team going down and me getting nada.

CCP heard how hard it was to properly pay people for merc contrats. hence with the new release a player isk transfer. It was so compilcatioed to transfer corps dontate an transfer back when there is no character selction screew. I t would take almost a half hour to transfer isk form corp to copr an ther was no real way unless merc was a director to ensure the payment transfer

QG doesn't know what he's saying. It becomes obvious when he refuses to talk in public and only in private. What a fail thread.

TAG & SoTa,

I understand, and I expect quick gloves and a lot of others reading this post, understand your frustrations. Because we are all stuck in this together. You guys feel the pulse of the community here because you live on these forums and in this game night and day.

This thread was and continues to be an effort to look at Dust from a different perspective than what is commonly posted in general discussion.

Now, maybe truly in your heart of hearts you really do believe all those things you post. I just can't figure out why you are still here day after day posting and posting if you have no hope for the future.

We all know what a mess this game is in currently. We all lament the **** poor fashion that CCP continues to "communicate" with it's players. A lot of us agree that DUST's future may be dim if things don't take a turn

But this thread is meant as a glimmer of light meant to motivate those with some hope left to keep hanging on.

Thanks for your input. I can't say that it's helpful but it is yours to give

We love you guys too, but is Dusties an accepted term? I recall some unhappy critters when they were referred to as "DUST bunnies" or "DUSTers".

Do you consider yourself a Merc, Ninja, Clone, super merc-ninja clone? Answers on a postcard please, WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?

...and why do you enjoy repeatedly t-bagging dead clones?

Agreed.

I bought the BF3 premium pack. A few weeks later I found out I could get into the Dust 514 closed beta if I bought a $20 merc pack. I did and I haven't touched BF3 or any of the expansions I bought since. And that was when Dust only had 1 map and numerous bugs. I've got plenty of patience.

None of the snazzy new PS4 games interest me except for a few. Planetside 2? No thanks. Titanfall? LOL no. This game has what I want and they don't. I may not even get a PS4 until I hear Dust is coming to that console.

Keep chugging along CCP. I'm not going anywhere.

(also, Duster is our word, they can't use it)

yes my opinion so wrong with so many likes an the fact that people are tired of seeing u an an other doom an gloomers. You can disagree all you want my opinion is still valid an holds value to those that agree. This thread been here for days an its obviouse you are so bored In your life that you have come here to argue an troll. so do wat we did last night an message me on Skype you can rant there without wasting more forum space. I am here to listen

Your opinion may be valid but your argument is not.

disagree my argument defends my opinion so. its valid

... In my opinion CCP has hit the mtoherload development wise of a FPSmmo that draws in the player base they are targeting. Now Mainstreaming this game may be diffcult but i pray CCP does not stray from its design trying to support the average-below averaqge gamer. I pay subscription fees to play EVE/Dust for a reason. WE need not worry about casual gamers that is not what EVE/Dust is for. A developer makes ther choice on the consumer they want to have. So i ask CCP an the communtiy this in a plea. Please do not dummy down the game or mechaincs anymore. Allow us to complain about the nonsense factors an the fact that some people want immideta satisfaction. In reality the impatient ones will in fact ruin this game further if you allow the casual gamer to shape this game. I feel that you should be talking to EVE players an closed beta players still for support an feedback. I do not like the fact that open beta or freshies have acces to feedback threads. Give them a complatin box, but if you stray from the true values of What dust is (a support feature of EVE) you will fail not just the gameing community that you have stirred into support of this world but to your current EVE piltos who have been wanting an waiting for so long for this....

STB OG 4 LIFE

You hit the nail in the head quickgloves.

I ve been here in this dream machine that is DUST since... .5 or maybe .6 beta. . When I sprang for a ps3, it's draw is that strong to me. It's a great premise for those of us EVE vets who have always looked down on the planets we PI'ed and wondered if they wetter more than husks.

Since the time of jumping in and grinding my way to a respectable knowledge of the games mechanics and tactics, the constant change always brings something new. Balance ALWAYS comes around, for those who think not remember dumb fire swarm launchers and non existent delay times in militia locus grenades? If you do, welcome to the closest to true balance we ve gotten, if you dont, go ask examplecore and howdidthattaste about how heavies single handedly won matchs.

CCPs got it right, and with each build everything gets better, whether the QQ posts are there or not.

So buckle up, this ride is kicking into high gear.

ps, can us faildari get some new frames, my assault guy really wants a shield heavy.
