I just think they are releasing everything little by little to be able to keep people coming back ad also be able to see hw people use the items currently in game. I cross my fingers that the next big expansion contains a full list of dropsuits,, LAV's, Dropships etc. Although the way I see it, it would be smarter o do an expansion based solely on dropsuits and their weapons and then after that a major exansion based on vehicles.
But at the same time people are being turned off because of slow progress and the feeling that nothing is changing.
I can understand CCP's desire to want to get it all correctly implemented right off of the bat but that isn't really how things have developed since the start of uprising is it?
Now I do give them credit for taking dust a huge leap forward from Chromosome to Uprising however one thing CCP aren't really accounting for is player frustration with their methods. Sure players may ***** and moan about this and that.... but that isn't necessarily, in my opinion, because the actually hate the game, its because of the frustrations with how that progression from stage to stage is being handles.
E.G- Heavy suits.... we have had one heavy suit for 12 months now. Closed Beta Testers are tired of the same old same old, even 4 month old Open Beta vets are tired of it. This is not to mention that even now on commercial release we still don't have all of the core racial varients of drop suits, weaponry, and in game scenery.
Obvious maintaining both EVE and Dust is somewhat draining on time and resources however if CCP wants to hold its Dust audience in large numbers we need both mechanics fixes and content in equal parts.
Skill point progression in this game is slow and specialisation is encouraged and rewarded.... but some player ether
A.)- Are competitive and want to best suit and weapons and so are impatient to see all content implemented and weapons balanced so they can FoTM
B) simply like something and are being forced to spec into something else to pass the time, knowing full well CCP wont respec the points and are penalising them for using the only things they can use.
C.) Are lucky enough to have what they want and are content.
A and B represent the largest part of this forum community.
I mean I want to use the Caldari COmmando with the Rail Rfile and swarms or the caldari scout with the Magsec SMG. However to even play the game on this character and be involved in my corp activities I have had to go Caldari Assault which is not how I wanted to play this game.
I know full well I wont get a respec from CCP unless they change the skill tree (which I hope to god they do). So my $60+ investment in a game I , and wanted to support as well as a 4month time investment has yielded me a character with 8m SP I will never again use because I specced into what I was give I absolutely loathe it.
That is not fun to me I don't even use this toon anymore since I gave up on it. |
