If you didnt want replies, you wouldn't post. You'd just slink away and not care. There's absolutely no reason to ever post when you quit.

After the initial rage subsided, I decided to step back into the forums before Albert Farrier breathes his last.

I really wish I hadn't posted in anger. I prefer to be civil, even behind the anonymity granted by the internet. Judging by the overall tone of the forums, I am surprised that I have not been derided as a crybaby who should just toughen up.

I would like to comment on the aspect of grinding though. I don't mind grinding at all. My favorite games require huge amounts of it. Heck, I platinumed FFXIII. I couldn't imagine more grinding than that. Even in Tekken, in essence, I have been grinding for years trying to improve my skill at the game in order to beat my friend who is unrivaled in the game in my circle of friends. The problem arises when the grinding is almost purely against enemies who are not at or around my level. Every other game I have ever played had me grinding against enemies that I could beat in order to get strong enough to face the ones that I couldn't.

I see great potential in dust. I just don't think it was ready to be released yet. I won't be returning to the game, but I do hope that they get it polished up and have its potential realized. I fear that it may not happen though. In the time it takes to get it right, the player base could very easily dwindle down to a few die hard dust fans.

Albert and his two brothers only have a few more hours to live before their scheduled executions. So any insults need to be made quickly. I can now laugh at the absurdity of it all, both at my own rage (though that is tempered a bit when I look at what was once my good ds3 ) and at the total lack of balance in the game.

Funny hearing the fanbois say... see ya when you come back.

Dont you idiots realise the game is what it is........Adding dropsooots and guns wont save a broken game. The game is being made and developed by non shooters. So this game will only appeal to non shooter players, aka eve players.

They arent coming back.

Nuff said

All characters terminated, dust deleted from my ps3. I would say, "It's been fun." but it hasn't. A game that you have to build your skill points up for a month or two before it becomes fun just isn't worth it. The lack of balance has cost CCP yet another potential paying customer.

By the way, all you fanboys and armchair commandos feel free to trash talk me and call me a whiny little crybaby all you want if it boosts your pitiful egos. I won't be back to respond for you to get your kicks seeing me blow up again on these forums.

Do you idiots seriously think this is a plausible defense for Dust 514?

"yea sure Dust is a grind fest....but that other game with fighter jets and long range weapons and 100s of people playing in the same battle, and upgrades are more like side grades, and you don't have to wait months to play the end game because the actual game is the end game and got critical acclaim from every game review ever...yeah that one is even worse."

/facepalm

But that other game with the fighter jets and the 100s of people playing the same battle won't have sneaky corporation infiltration and elimination. It won't have player-run politics. It won't give you the opportunity to create the most absurd fittings. It won't let you completely change the course of the battle by merely calling in a Big Bertha Tank. That other game doesnt have the ability to have a player from a different game flying Lord knows what to rain death onto all enemies below it. That other game is a completely different game than this game, DUST 514.


That other game may seem similar to this game and maybe even superior in some factors, but it won't have up to 10 years and beyond to completely re-define the Shooter genre. That is the beauty of Dust.

Cant tell if serious or mentally insane.

It is possible to be both...

Ib4 I wished I hadn't biomassed 2 years from now.

1.3 and 1.4 are already on the way. Some exciting changes this fall too.

2 years?
Is this really how delusional people are on this forum?
Try to predict next week and tell me how wrong you are.

Which aspect do you consider delusional?

People with an EVE background can simply assume DUST will be around for a decade -- though it might not. This is not quite the same style of company many of us are used to.

Or, is it simply the predictability that you have an issue with?
