If we had 1000 dollar tournaments or prize pools this game could start development on competitive gaming that makes games like this popular.
Right now dust has no competitive gaming.
Competitive gaming would mean removal of all SP.

Right now dust has no competitive gaming. Competitive gaming would mean removal of all SP. That's not true at all it just means tournaments have to be set up to accommodate such factors. Having competitive play in a MMO is not impossible.
Your right they do it on Planeside but the games sheer numbers make up for SP imbalances.
Dust has small vs groups so SP would be a huge factor and if you know anything about comp play, they are very picky on everything that shows the slightest imbalance. |

The game has to stand on its 2 feet at some point. Whether you bracket tournaments like you would weight classes in boxing or have unrestricted leagues really comes down to getting out there and testing testing testing testing the features until it works like it should as long as the testing is done responsibly. Hiding from it is not gonna make it any better nor is it going to help take the game anywhere your always going to have growing pains. And i would rather have growing pains then being stagnant.
Honestly it boils down to this game not being good enough to warrant the effort.

60 million gamers....and CCP can't even get 5000 of them to play their game at the same time. Yeah... Their exposure was a tab on the top right and a tile on the PSN store. Why is it so hard for you haters to understand that your arguments are stupid?
The cycle continues..... |
