I'm disappointed & concerned by the lack of any mention of PvE, Industry and the "Infestation" game mode which I'm assuming is the PvEvP element of Dust.

I would really like an idea of when this key part of Dust is planned for? I can remember Dev responses from months ago saying they'd like to get it in for release but weren't sure. Soon after release was another answer. I've not noticed anything more recently.

PvEvP is for me a major attraction in EvE. I might be rubbish, but if I can supply my less rubbish friends with gubbinz I build, find or buy I am fueling the war machine.

Infestation attacks are perhaps the single best method of keeping less elite corps in Planetary conquest, as their ability to dish out PvE attacks on elitest PvP corps would make them valuable to those same PvP corps.

Please, can I get an approximate and non concrete answer on when PvE is planned for, and if infestation follow after, or be released at the same time?

PS: Name the update "Infestation" too. Make some EvE event vs Drones. Incursion in the Heath :D

Can they even add something like that without a major update?

Major as in Expansion?

I don't think the PvE is something they could patch in with a server-side hotfix like they are with the stuff they're doing right now. Seems to me that would have to be something released with a whole new build of the game, so possibly for the first expansion which will likely be at the end of this year, around November.

I Couldn't give two Shiites if it was an Update I had to wait 3 hours for just to Download the update, and another 3 to install I Like the Game, and I want it to fight on, but being able to fight Wimpy Drones as Opposed to being Munched By Proto Stomping Gods would bring many back from the repeated gameplay of CoD and BF. Kill, Die Respawn. Die, Respawn. Kill, Kill, Kill, Die, Respawn. I don't care when PvE is added, just Email me when its here, and I'll come Running. And maybe by then PvP Will Be Balanced, and it will be a good PvP Game Don't Call me a Fanboi. I just like being able expect something new when I come back in a day/week/month/year Just Hope the Player base don't Erode away by then.
