They won't release the full roadmap because any of that info can change in a moments notice. I believe it was just changed after Uprising because the players said to focus on the core mechanics instead of new content.

Also the "Lead Designer" doesn't make the roadmap.

Thats a weak excuse for not posting any information and you know it
All it takes is putting big block letters above the roadmap saying SUBJECT TO CHANGE and the majority of the community would understand

Which players ? we all screamed for more content, by "players" you meant the CPM ? I'm no so sure if the CPM truly represents the Dust 514 community, or just their own interest and personal agendas.

We need a voting system in this game, let people VOTE for what they want.

Actually you might want to go into the "snow in 1.2" thread. There's people complaining about how they're wasting time on making new terrain instead of fixing bugs.

Snow is a waste of time unless they add something to the gameplay. Does it affect movement speed? Weapon heat rate? Glare? If it doesn't even have the tiniest mechanical effect it is a true waste of time.

Actually the teams that fix bugs is completely different then the team that does map design so no it didn't waste time.

We were actually supposed to get a devblog on their roadmap wednesday this week. Anyone know what happened to that?

You are really dense aren't you. There are a 1000 better things I could think of for the level design team to be focusing on.

Did you not read my other post where I said they had snow almost finished at Fan fest. Also they said they're adding new map sockets for the snow meaning new maps.

See how CCP only mentions things that are coming out in 1.2...

They have no idea what they are doing afterwards? No plan, no timeline, no target to meet, no nothing.

I guess the roadmap doesn't exist even internally seeing how they are avoiding the subject.

There is no roadmap. Only an eternal cycle of "can we fix it? no it's f-----".

So CCP please update us with your lead designer's roadmap?

reverse psychology...we have officially tried everything.

EVEN BETTER, they spent LOTS of MONTHS achieving NOTHING.

Hey, we have an internal roadmap. Our lead designer is currently at E3 but when he gets back the plan is for him to write a dev blog that will at least give a rough overview of our roadmap in the coming months. We anticipate people will be pleased with it.

Quoting relevant stuff.


Original post

Maybe the devs' computers are lagging? Like their servers? :)

So... we assuming that the Lead Designer got lost in the E3 building, and all the Devs are trying to find him ? Should we start making "Missing People" posters ?

Who is Dust's lead designer, anyone know?

I thought you knew ... But hell yeah ! that is a good question.

Who is Dust's lead designer, anyone know?

There's three lead designers:
Gu Ming
Joseph Novac
Jason Smith Spencer

Well they said in your link he would start working on it once he got back from E3 so I would think anywhere from 1 week to a month from now depending on whether it's a priority or not.

It was supposed to be out wednesday, 2 days ago.

Source unless your talking about what Eterne said in which case he didn't say they were releasing a dev blog on the road map. Only on stuff in 1.2 in which they did release those.

We are intensely devoted to delivering the best DUST 514 experience possible. Throughout road-mapping the update process, we have focused on fixing and perfecting our core game systems. Over the next few releases, youGÇÖll see us polish the core gameplay systems (aiming and aim assist, controls, vehicle handling, movement on the battlefield) and improve on context and immersion (getting you into a battle, adding a welcome screen, and more). Planetary Conquest will also be getting a lot of love.

Here is the ONLY PARAGRAPH from the Wednesday dev blog that mentions anything about a roadmap.

You call this a roadmap? CCP?

Are you -king kidding me?
