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 |

You might have a point there Kero. Defiance has thousands online, but it's pretty tricky getting into PvP except at the weekends. I disagree that the PvE needs to be fully flushed out with content... Just look at our lack of PvP content :P Also leaving it "bare bones" would keep PvP the main attraction of Dust.
I'm certainly not saying make PvE top priority. I'd just like a rough idea when I can look at playing Dust again outside of Corp battles. Like 2013, 2014 or 2015 sort of thing. I don't want PvE to be a Station Walking fiasco.

@Oso I cannot see any reason Dust industry should be kept EvE side. (simple T1 stuff, get parts, stick it together, PAPOW manufactured gun/suit). It's hardly reinventing the wheel. Industry is for another topic though. I agree with your other points. PvE could work like Faction Warfare, but in space occupied by an incursion. Limited planets & districts where PvE can happen. Survival game mode, and a defend the objective mode would be enough to start with. We're talking about what PvE & PvEvP should entail, which isn't the point of this thread though.
@Jath The destructoid article is what really had me expecting PvE and possibly PvEvP to be on the roadmap. I'm just curious as to why they're not there, and when we might expect news on PvE. |
