5. Meta-game (awoxing, politics, etc.)

6. Passive EXP(SP) gain (literally the ONLY reason why someone CAN come back, if they leave)

but that's all I got.

I was talking to my corp mates tonight. We were having a genuine discussion on the positives of DUST.

All we could come up with were.

1. Free to play.

2. Comms work well.

3. 6 man squads are ok. ( 8 would be better )

4. The idea behind suit customisation is nice.


This was all we could honestly come up with.

Can you think of anything else ?

are you for real or is this some sort of sarcasm." POLITICS" wtf lmfao" POLITICS" omg face palm

Links with Eve

Developing and Shifting universe with rich history and player created content

Corporation Mechanics that beat the ****** clan system hands down.

Just to name a few.

Yesssssss. "POLITICS".

Say it slowly... "POLITICSSSS".

It's not necessary to the game, but it's there. So it counts as meta.

Destiny is coming.

''links with eve''........... lol. orbitals in PC. yeah fantastic.

''player created content''............. Really, where ?

'' Corp mechanics''............ Corp or Clan, it's just a name that's it.


Sorry but these are not really positives in DUST. Neither are fanbois I'm afraid.

1- Links with EVE- I am a part of a corporation that essentially specialises in FW combat for the Amarr Empire. We roll out a reasonably strong ground team whenever we can have small gangs complexing in Amarr FW space so that the modifiers scale in our favour.

Our guys go out and generate FW matches for us to fight in. They also have one or two players rolling Orbital Teams, to whom we send the location of the battle, our teams get the WP, we get the strikes, we get the wins.

Up in EVE our guys get the bonuses and glowing praise of how we brought God's vengeance to the Matari scum (since they are RPers they love it), the also get the complexes they need to more quickly, which in turn allows them to push into more systems, get more LP, and eventually strike down enemy POS's like we did tonight.

2- Player Created Content- Firsty you have to go out and make the content ....you know...its player made....

I find the more you invest into Dust the more you get out of it, the more I create my character, the more I fight with my corp over things to take, or to defend, when we dominate the field, and when we are on the back peddle, and when we get paid to fight and kill in the name of God, the more I enjoy what I am doing.

I create my own content, and as a corp we all create a story for ourselves and our corp. FPSers don't understand complex narration.... that's just how they are.... they like movies like Fast and Furious ****....uh Six and explosions...and boobies ( the latter is the more admirable) they don't really care about narrative....this is Dust and New Eden we need to care.

3- Corp mechanics are something that puts the clan system to shame, Clans are simply groups with clan leaders who just try and subdue/ micromanage the fractious personalities of FPSers welding them into a coherent whole based on sheer charisma alone. Dust structures this, it allows for management of corporation resources, player base, the promotion and allocation of roles.

"It's just a name" that's the attitude that a need to change with Dust, A corp is something you should have pride in, take pleasure out of the corps infamy, its trustworthiness, its prestige, and of course its player base. In most FPS games a clan or corp is a group of people you play with but the bigger and stronger corps always consider themselves more than that, they are communities, families, friends, etc.

2. Coms work well. I don't agree. There are lots of bugs and issues and the MAG com system build was much better ...

so you on the left or the right . what you call politics most call girly gossip and pathetic rivalry, politics !!!

I don't you understand the definition of the word.

2. Coms work well. I don't agree. There are lots of bugs and issues and the MAG com system build was much better in therms of the various officer chats and how easy and intuitive it was to change between them. Its not by random chance that many corps keep muting out members of their own team in PC, making communications flow smoother and in a general sort of "MAG" way of organizing it.

But I do have one thing to add:

- The nade mechanics for the Locus nades and the flux nades are very good. (It would all be good except for the AV-nades being wonky and the whole direct hit nades issue...)

Corp mates and I were talking the other day about what actually works in Dust.

Turns out, they fixed the mail system. =' (

Remember: IamI3rian told ya
Kinda like this game but there's something you should know... I just came to say hello

so what you are saying to the OP is not much as the list above you have written exists only in you head

@ adamance


This is what is commonly known as. '' bollox speak '' usually spoken by politicians and estate agents, also actors in Oscar acceptance speech's

Um so it seems like I'm enjoying the game Like Devs want me to and you aren't so how is this so called "bollox speak"...

Games are always most assuredly better than their competition if they have good narrative, and or a reason for player immersion.

Lol,

Can I join your corp on my alt? This sounds like alot of fun.

Adamance.

You run out of pills mate ?.

Get the dude in the white coat for a refresh.

SO your point is invalidated by the existence of someone enjoying the game....

Yup my sanity points hit zero weeks ago, no pill can fix what I have.

it's not COD?

I'm not very good at whining...

- The game is fun (for people that still find it fun even with the flaws that's a big positive).

Yes, I enjoy snapping a few rounds into some redberry hacking my objective. Success is when the letter stops flashing and I know I've sent at least a few more missiles into the enemy MCC.

I enjoy seeing the preparatory uplinks I've dropped see use when the CRU and objective in our end have been taken. I see the WP wind up as people start spawning in and retaking our end of the map.

I like spotting a vehicle getting hammered and chipping in a few sniper rounds. About half the time the system will recognize my effort and give me some WP. This can even work for structures.

I enjoy counter-sniping people off of tall buildings or mountains. I know I've saved a few of my bros every time I take out one of those bastards.

I enjoy being near enough to the fray that I can chip away at shields and armor ending up with twice the assists as kills. I may be hated by many but I'm rewarded by knowing I've helped my team.

And, yes, I know hit boxes are a problem, sometimes I can't hit people I should. I know we don't have explosions working as they should. I know we use the same maps all the time. I know we have way too many LAVs as I become roadkill often enough. I know there is no permanence to anything I do.

When I'm in battle... I'm in battle and I need to support my team. That's all.

So you couldn't think of anything else either then.

That was all you needed to say.

Oh btw, views of snipers do not count, sorry.

Reg, what have you been told about making fun of mentals.

AMARR VICTOR!

May those heretical scum be purified in the holy fires of Justice!

Well that would be up to the corp leadership. I'm just a grunt spreading the word of God.

PIE Inc RP's, we roll FW missions, we try to maintain full squads when possible and when I get online during peak hours year I like to get the word out the the EVE guys to roll out some OB's.

PIE Inc only accepts Amarr or Amarr bloodline races, Khanid, Ni Kunni, Amarr, and were not up for Bloodraiders, Sansha's Nation, or cultist deviants of the faith. In game RP is not required by in IC interview is.
GIve it a try and talk to Aethrion Mirra or Aldrith Shutaq.

If I can get a way to record EVE gameplay I would roll some out of me dropping OB's running FW complexing, so on so forth.

@ Icecream- Well it is since I am successfully achieving a level of immersion and therefore enjoying it, as would I say is the predominant number of Duster in my corporation

@ Joe- NO idea what you happen to be talking about... can you explain what you mean with.....um....what're they called..... uh... clear explainations?

10. Team roles are actually used in this FPS by many instead of everyone being either a assault or sniper

COD is fun, yes, I said it.

In COD I can change my loadouts out in a heartbeat to completely change my playstyle, in Dust I have to work for months to do so.

In COD my bullets hit their enemy and dont just vanish in tin air, in Dust Hudini messes with my gun and makes my bullets vanish.
