1) Who is excited by the prospect of playing Dust, the SciFi Call of Battlefield clone?
or
2) Who is excited by the prospect of exploring New Eden through Dust, the Eve FPS?
and finally
3) Who hopes that we get some hybrid of the two where neither playstyle is forced on anyone and everyone can choose which they'd prefer to participate in (ala some RDR Multiplayer inspired SciFi MMORPS* fun)?

I'd be excited by either option. What game are you talking about?
Ok, so i'm just tired and cynical. |

#3 That's I what I was under the impression this game was going to be when I first read about it.
Ya know, the whole ground breaking new concept for a new breed of fps talk, and all of that stuff people were going on about before the third stage of beta.. |

This is what i was hoping for, a clone of this, just built apon in a logical way that works for a persistent game
Instead Dust gave me a subpar clone of it.

Well, TBH, I'm talking about Dust, though if you meant which option do I want?
I thought it was fairly obvious that I support Option #3. I want both, I am exceedingly sick of the Lobby Shooter we are currently restricted to though. Boring and repetitive with only 2 game modes (One and Only is JUST SKIRMISH GODDAMNIT!!!) on the same 5 maps over and over and over and over and over again. I've been here for more than a year and sometimes it really feels like we're just going backwards.
Please CCP, for the love of whatever you hold sacred, get the core mechanics hammered out and then give us some motion on open world, free-form FPS PVP/PVE in a free roam environment. |

Hey, I'm Mimatar and I wouldn't be "indoors crafting for hours".....
I'd be camping a chokepoint somewhere looking to waylay passersby like some futuristic highwayman
I might also go hunting dirty Amarr PvEers and ransoming them for their drone loot.
The life of a Dust Pirate for me!!
When things were slow and I was bored, I'd go to the nearest Contract Kiosk and "sign up for a mercenary contract today!" (i.e. join an Instant Battle queue). |

That is the thing though, they're both set in New Eden.
Exploring a new aspect of New Eden is what I think we all want (well, aside from those that just want this to be some Call of Battlefield lobby shooter clone).
Capsuleers explore the space of New Eden, we could be exploring the planets/moons/space stations of New Eden. |

While you're both entitled to your opinions, that doesn't mean that either of you are able to view the future and definitively proclaim things.

Are you trolling or would you really want to see a Dust with no Lobby Shooter option while telling those that would want the option to SIUB & GTFO? |

I am sure that in the early days of Eve, there were those that shared your opinion of Dust, though felt that way about Eve.

We may never have 100% free roam, world map and all that. EVE doesn't even have that, it's just a series of instances and shared shards. What we do need is a little more relevance within the universe than the little indicator of where we are in the upper corner of the screen. PVE, missions, bounties, and EVE player contracts come to mind. |

I see what you mean, though I personally do view Eve as being at least somewhat free roam.
If I want to undock and "slowboat" my Stiletto to the gate that is 6,847,278 miles from the undock, I can.
Eve with Guns and Grenades is what I want from Dust, at least the option for it. Eve: The Lobby Shooter isn't what I signed on for, though it does make for a nice diversion at times. |

Yeah, a lot of us didn't sign up for a lobby shooter with an EVE tag on it. I have a feeling that wasn't what the devs were going for either but had to settle when they switched to Unreal 3. Very few people remember that usable star map from earlier builds, I think that was just the tip of the iceberg. But with that said, several changes could be made to make this game "feel" like the world was more open at the very least. Larger, full scale battles across districts where you would actually need vehicles like dropships to extract troops or LAVs to traverse between districts. Of course this is soonGäó kind of stuff, but a man can dream, right?

BTW, I remember that Starmap, it was really similar to Eves from what I remember. |

The other stuff will take literally years upon years to build, BF 2142 Dust 514 is within reach in about a year and a half if the devs dont mess it up. And its a proven good game. the other stuff can be build later, and a lot of it does not make a game! its just ambiance. |

BF2142 was before all that started. Go play it or watch gameplay of it if you can, trust me its a solid game and if you had played it you would recognize dust is already a bad clone of it. Bad because of poor devs not because bf2142 was not a awesome game. its like a kid with poo on his fingers making you a sandwich, it just wont be like mom used to make. unless your mom was weird, and it that case im sorry
Watch this and tell me if they both has some sort of dust like/sp system (and that system needs a ton of work IMHO) and where both linked to eve which one would you play? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x9m58Vol1c Their version of MCC skirmish. Board able moveable MCC's with turrets and hanger decks as well as drop pods that launch from it. complete with full commander mode and graphics that can rival dust and all from 2006, with 64 players. If dust had copied this game we would already probably BE at the point where they COULD work on the things you wanted, and the game would be popular enough to support such endeavors. and a TON of content with regards to weapons and skill trees, its a highly regarded game from before FPS went to crap.
Start basic with a great core and expansion becomes easy.

Dust has done a lot of things right and a few things wrong.
Some very general things they need to improve on are:
Distance clipping Game Modes Interaction with Eve population Dropsuit and weapons balancing Figuring out what roles they want their weapons to have Communication with Dust players
The roadmap is a little helpful, but we'd really love to have more transparency when it comes to what each team is working on. Also there are some pretty solid suggestions on these forums. Quite a bit of rubbish too, but still some solid suggestions. =D |

Aside from that, thank you for letting us know how you both feel. You really think that dust as mediocre as it is , will be around in 2 years from now ? I applaud your optimism. I am sure that in the early days of Eve, there were those that shared your opinion of Dust, though felt that way about Eve. Where is Eve now?
Just because Eve was successful doesn't mean that Dust will play out in the same manner. Dust has a lot of competition, and a very, very long road to go to make it to 10 years. Dust is 2 months and 11 days into release and already on life support. |

Only because they are trying to be option #1 and release a half-finished product into an already oversaturated market dominated by LCD Activision.
If they actually tried to go to option #3 and do something actually original, I think the story would be much different.

Or CCP could try to go with option 3 effectively committing seppuku because there isn't enough support. Remember Dust is a free to play business model. By nature FtP's need to pander to the largest available playerbase to garner revenue. That's why Dust leans much more on shooter style gameplay, that's also why Dust is on console and not PC. It's aiming to take a bite from a large market, rather than a smaller niche one. |

Here we go again with people looking into a crystal ball and "knowing" the future.
You need to remember, option #3 is the one that caters to both markets which would imply that it would gain market share from both types of player rather than pigeonholing itself into an either/or situation.
Thank you for your support by pointing out that they need to "pander to the largest available playerbase" which shows that you obviously support option #3 despite you calling it the equivalent of "committing seppuku". |

Option #3 is the niche option, I guess you missing being too busy misinterpreting my statements. It's the option which spreads it's self too thin and creates a divide among the playerbase other then the ones who desire a watered down game, weak on both fronts because it tried to do too much. |

So you're calling RDR Multiplayer weak?
That is essentially what I am viewing option #3 as, a Persistent Sci-Fi Themed RDR Multiplayer set in New Eden. There is options for both, room for both to grow and a larger market share (no matter how much you try to spin that it would be more niche than option #2). |

Inspired by doesn't mean copied, and you can't glob onto Red Dead Redemption's success in a hypothetical scenario in which Dust introduced gameplay that copied RDR's multiplayer. First all CCP can't outright copy RDR, Rockstar would sue. And even if they didn't win, it would be a hugh not only financial but also PR set back for the much smaller CCP.
I'm calling what CCP would be able to produce inspired by RDR or not as watered down and weak, if they tried to hybrid too many genres. They need to learn to walk before they can run. CCP is already way outside of their comfort zone with Dust's very basic lobby shooter gameplay. Hell, they didn't even follow in the footsteps of most other free to play games and add cash bought customization items. I don't want to deal with fantasies and hypotheticals in regards to Dust. Overselling what they are capable of is part of what got CCP in trouble with Dust in the first place. Now I think the game has potential, but CCP doesn't need to go around taken on too much in game design areas they know little to nothing about. |

I can agree with this.
I am in no way saying that CCP should copy-paste RDR Multiplayer, it is simply the easiest way for me to describe how I view my ideal version of Dust.
It would be a mixture of the free-roam and the lobbied shooter play. There would be ample opportunities for PvE (both that which is just stumbled upon and that which requires a Mission Agent) as well as both free-form FPS PvP and lobby shooter PvP. Corporation, Industry, Science and Trade interfaces would all be copy-pasta'd from Eve.
It would be both the FPS view on an Eve-style New Eden as well as the Eve take on a Lobby Shooter FPS combined in one. It will appeal to more people than either one alone would. It would solve the elusive mystery of matchmaking in that you could just do it simplistically and tell the playerbase to HTFU (since the lobby shooter aspect wouldn't be the sole attraction of the game).
In the end, I think it would be the most appealing way to do Dust, it would gather the most attention (since it would target two types of players rather than just one) and it would have the potential to be vastly more profitable for CCP from a business standpoint without being the fairly minimalist shooter with a cash shop tacked onto the market that we currently have. |

I played it when it first came out, I didn't really give it too much of a chance since I only had a couple of friends that played it. Don't get me wrong, it looks cool and I remember enjoying what I played of it |
