Oh well when you put it like that



Alright. Peace out, think I've spent enough time playing Reddit/roastme for one night.

"My bad for giving it to you straight instead of burying it fanciful PR talk? Is that something you guys want me to do from now on, because I totally can lol."

My bad for giving it to you straight instead of burying it fanciful PR talk? Is that something you guys want me to do from now on, because I totally can lol.

Yeah okay. Lemme just kill all individuality to be what everyone else wants me to be: a blubbering idiot in a suit that everyone hates for political rhetoric. Nah, I'm good. White Paper says that the CPM should be an example of behavior for the community, doesn't say it has to be all fluffy bunny wuffle whoo. I'm blunt, I'm direct, and I'm not going to beat around the bush. My bad if that doesn't fit the popular opinion but that's how I'd want to be treated and that's how I wanted to be treated by CPM1.

And good luck finding any game where continued development in a game does not marginalize players, lol. That is a tall order if I've ever heard one. You basically couldn't change anything, no matter how insane the legacy designs and sins of former devs were - which is something that the current dev team has been trying to do ever since the FF14 debacle.

Annnnd the SoonTM thing? Yeah, you can rip on them all you'd like but it's kinda dumb to do so, lol. S'like hecklers at a comedy session.

Here's the straight version then, if you think you can do a better job: Let's say I ask - again, maybe, because who knows if I did or not? - do you think I could tell you what the answer was? Passing along information from a developer? Because, yanno, there's this thing:

9. Posting of private CCP communication is prohibited.
The posting of private communication between the Game Masters, DUST Team members, Moderators, Administrators of the forums and forum users is prohibited. CCP respect the right of our players to privacy and as such you are not permitted to publicize private correspondence (including petition responses and emails) received from any of the aforementioned parties.

That's a fair point, but still you're passing up an opportunity to earn some serious points with the playerbase. Nothing in the NDA prohibits you from telling players "I'll ask the Devs whether or not a limited SP refund is possible."

You may not be able to tell us their response, but at least we'll know you heard our concerns and tried. That counts for something. And it counts for alot more than "it was mentioned in 2014" or "buy a respec if you don't like it."

I'm not trying to be mean-spirited here.

We'll/we've ask/asked the Devs whether or not a limited SP refund is possible.

Happy? Can we get off the pedestal?

Yo scrublords, quit bickering over useless bullsh!t and let's move on to something important.

What corp should I join?

.. and stays there

Don't bail! But if you did, I'd recommend Kaeru's corp if they're still active. Good people.

I'll be back as soon as possible, btw, and I'll definitely pewpew with you. We've had an endless supply of well-wishers popping in (some for days on end ) to meet the little booger. Been busy. And when it isn't, the sleep schedule tends to interfere with the Nintendo schedule.

Now turn.

XD

Oh I thought we were playing scout of the mountain again?

::Puts down red jar::

Yeah, it sucks, they lost the 10% damage bonus to Swarms and it went to another suit. However, if we had to issue out respecs to every marginalized player who felt shafted over the interim changes we'd be offering free respecs by now.

tossed my PS3 on and updated. played one match and went 11/11. I had one instance of hit detection issue with knives.. but I was getting hit by MD fire at the same time. I also got killed by a guy twice by his PLC and what is up with not taking damage form your own PLC? I was on top of the guy slashing him when he hit me, although he was slightly in the air each time. I had slashed him a couple times and he had 450 armor left, so a PLC hit that killed me should have killed him as well.

PLC splash isn't that strong, especially towards armor. I think it was somewhere in the early 200's and then -10%.
@Aeon- you know what would improve the game dramatically? The ability to get into squads on your team quickly. A little bit of war barge time wouldn't hurt either. the removal of both of those options is terrible.

Dear scouts for most of you that I know , we have one thing in common : we ALL love skirmish.
Unfortunately, this game mode often gets horribly long timers.
Therefore , I undertook a project of reviving this dying gamemode for all skirmish lovers.
I created and started populating the chat 'Skirmish Queue'.
It is small but it's goal will be to be bigger and the goal is to make a huge chat where all the skirmish players rest.
The effects will be : Good battles due to squads , short timers , active gamemode that we all love.
I appreciate all the help I can get with this , dear scouts.
May you keep on roaming incognito , whoever you all are.
