Neither. Was. EvE.

Built*

Yeah. But Rome didn't call itself a city, whilst it was still a small town.

Maybe you don't understand the definition of a city then.

You can pretend to ignore his meaning, but it doesn't change the fact that you are willfully ignorant. You know what he meant.

Oh! You like cliches? I got an awesome one for ya. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Enjoy

Rome wasn't built in a day - very true - but it also wasn't built by CCP. Imagine if it was? :O

I can agree with siting on shacks and calling it a empire but then what game does not have good trailers
ALMOST EVERY GAME YOU SEE TODAY HAS A TRAILER THAT IS BETTER THAN WHAT THE GAME TRULY IS

But if you want to play this game
may i remind you of what Aliens colonial marine did ?

also While we are on this subject
did you know games like farm-ville can be classified as a MMO

So if games like that can be called a MMO then i think dust should have no problem being called a mmo.fps.rpg

*edit*

I don't understand why people care about stuff like this..................

Publisher: Zynga
Playerbase: High
Graphics: Low
Type: Social MMO
EXP Rate: Medium
PvP: N/A
Filesize: N/A

Pros: +Co-op Farming feature. +Plenty of Customization. +Virtual pet option. +New additions added regularly making gameplay challenging.

Cons: -Players must rely heavily on their friends for certain upgrades or tasks. -To gain specific items occasional spamming of friends is necessary.

Fail.

The Romans had the guts to call the cause of destabilisation of their Republic civil war instead of 'community input'.

Dude... You are so awkwardly hard to talk to.

but a major human threatening pandemic, capable of eradicating the worlds population, can be done in a day.

actually im a rather normal person ~
i just like to have fun by confusing people

here

have the|se

Rome wasn't built in a day, but it was sure as hell worked on EVERY DAMN DAY. You want to be legends? Do something about it.. HINT HINT CCP

no this is not a troll threat

but i do have them ~
look up lav's need to be buffed

but my point was when he said rome did not claim to be a city

i assumed he mean that dust 514 was claiming to be a mmo.fps.rpg when he though it was not good enough for that

so i used the comparison that farmville a ***** facebook flash game is classified as a mmo to make my point

but then the comment rome did not claim to be a empire when it was a shack was made so i assumed he was talking about the trailers and hype around the game

so i pointed out EVERY GAME in the history of 2010+ of gaming did that so ccp is allowed to regardless of what he thinks therefore making his point meaningless

rome was not built in a day
im not calling ccp is rome
but im pointing out the nothing that is good will just show up

now if you had half a brain you should have figured that out your self
unless you still can't what im talking about then obv we are not on the same page and i have nothing left to say to you

I promise you make a lot less sense than you think you make.

Wow.

Everyday I see fan boys coming up with new excuses to defend the flaws of this game.

"Rome wasn't built in a day" is such a generic excuse for so many things...

I can see why you picked this line to cover the vast amount of under-delivery and poor standards...

r u a alt ?

Yes I'm a secret CCP alt I'm here to build Rome! Stop complaining because we are fixing Dust in 10 years! So come back in 10 years!

EVE has improved graphically significantly over the years. The core gameplay has barely budged. Apply this same formula to DUST and ask if it is worth waiting 10 years for it...

Another thing I want to say is Dust is not EVE, they are too different in nature so please stop applying CCP's EVE experience to this Dust thingy that's going on.

1. the correct term is not Dust Thingy.

2. The experience ccp got from ten years of eve is integrity not just making space ship games.

3. thank you for saying please but i will not delete this thread nor can i in any formal way

are you real
-poke-

this is unbelievable

its a valid point and constructive criticism

ok ~

but tbh im happy with where dust is at atm
i like the whole PQ thing and i think that through dust eve can also expand the battles of dust i feel over time will become more important and it will effect eve one way or another

if not then i can say
hey thanks for the ride

So is mine. If you are happy with the foundation and just looking for polish, then it is worth sticking it out. If you are unhappy with some core direction choices, it won't magically get better over time.

i was talking about your point when i said valid point and constructive criticism of my point :P
and thanks ~

but atm the core mechanics of dust are amazing to me
a merc of war in a universe so big where pvp is already a big deal between small corps and big ones

The big problem I have with DUST, is they seem to not have a cohesive vision for what it will be 10 years from now. They have a list of features but no unified package that connects them. It has been more or less a blank slate, which made it easy to dream in perfect ways it would eventually be filled in. But alas, it still has the feeling of a blank slate of a game and I'm not sure how that is supposed to sustain my attention when there are a lot of games focused on fun shooting first around the corner instead of logistics. Don't get me wrong, the risk/reward is a "killer feature" for DUST, but it's poorly executed.

DUST definitely broke my heart though, and a few people, especially in PR, should be fired for derogatory treatment of customers and blatantly unrealistic expectations they gave the community. With RSI, Uber, and even SOE being much more customer friendly, I've certainly sent my money elsewhere and won't reconsider unless it truly does become good someday.

For me this is their biggest failure. The amount of info CCP has spouted saying this is coming down the line etc and never delivered is incredible.

I remember the forums all through closed beta. Whenever complaints came up fanbois would say this is a beta patience etc.CCP will deliver, look at Eve, we are only seeing a tiny percentage of the game - wait till it releases. CCP did nothing to dampen down expectations but rather ramped it up with promises of bigger and better content e.g. 1000s of expansive maps different every time, gun rig system, player trading, open market etc.

launch? Nothing. Same year old maps with a building here and there - same terrible core mechanics. CCP delivered???

im not judging you
and im not going to lie there are more fun things to do than play dust and stuff like this
im not telling people they should play dust and they are a noob if they think its bad

that in all honesty is just a stupid arrogant type of thing to do

I have seen feedback suggested by players become a reality

did you know in league of legends That was a HUGE DEAL
but in dust 514

almost everything was requested by players on the IRC and the Forums
so i see it as my job to stick with ccp

Should come with a diet ad disclaimer for DUST 514. Not a typical experience. I've been behind a few features that got to the game, but by the time they arrived they were half baked.

Yes but rome had skilled architects where as dust as a lolocracy of Dev's who have no idea what there doing http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://i.imgur.com/xVyoSl.jpg&imgrefurl=http://ninjasandrobots.com/you-need-some-experience&h=490&w=640&sz=68&tbnid=uL_sKn0GWPdwZM:&tbnh=92&tbnw=120&zoom=1&usg=__KL1dnKzN8rnVfqvEGmeE7cbgYtI=&docid=qHdh2oIAXNwWcM&sa=X&ei=TT3IUeffHoi-qAGz3IG4Dg&ved=0CC4Q9QEwAA&dur=493

Rome wasn't built in a day, but it took the Allies 4 years to bring down the Axis powers in WW2.

How many years has CCP been working on DUST now???

God! smh...

We are talking about how every fanboy of Dust is saying that this game has great gunplay, great vehicles, amazing core mechanics, good economics, good company-customer relations, how Dust 514 tops all other triple A titles and that anybody who can't appreciate how 'good' it is, is ignorant.

In reality, Dust is lacking in every aspect outside of future promises by CCP, which no other company has ever had the guts to give such audacious promises. This game cannot compete against the other shooters, at least not yet. Hence it should not call it self a 'city', while it has nothing more to offer than a small 'town'.

This , sir, is what we are speaking of.

(why im quoting my self ... i don't know why)

But eve is playable it's not that were all having fun in dust and waiting for the game to improve even more were waiting for dust to become something playable as im sure eve was from the beginning.

Yes it was.

Look it up. It's in the bible. That makes it an irrefutable fact.

LoL reported

LoL this isin't WoW or LoL. GL with that.

look next to my name

see that flag
also look in the forum rules

and then look at the joke about religion you just made that could really offend people

What makes you think I was joking.

its not a joke that would require it to be funny.
its just plain rude and offensive

I was not aware you were a biblical scholar. Please excuse me for not knowing about your encyclopedic knowledge on this matter. It's pretty awesome that you're able to spare the time to become so well versed in the mechanics of ~humor~, and it's many methods of application and implementation.

Tell me, with so much of your time taken up by the above two tasks, how is it that you have time left to spare to play Dust? Especially considering how much time you seem to spend on the forums? One can then extrapolate that perhaps you don't actually *play* Dust, but are instead just a simple forum dweller.

In that case, I have only one question..

Meow?
