On to the report
Dust 514 is supposedly a sandbox shooter were everyone is completely different based on how you spend your skill points. Yeah i would say they did this pretty well no two individual players have the same skills which makes every merc unique. Major problems we have had since closed beta are still here.

1 gun is always king everytime they try to balance something. We should not have to wait for an update for you guys to fix an obviously broken weapon. Do weekly balancing for everything. if on the forums there is 25 threads daily about an OP weapon obviously it is OP. In about 2 months of doing this everything should be balanced there will be no QQing everyone wil be happy and you guys can actually work on getting new content out.

Everyday a new person downloads dust for the first time and gets on and gets raped indiscriminately. "Well that game was garbage back to CoD." Introduce matchmaking of some kind. SP based; Gear based; skill based; it doesn't matter to me how you guys do it just make it happen. you will find those new people who log onto this game will stay if they don't get pubstomped every time they try to play.

Make a real merc system for PC matches if you are not in the same alliance or corp you have to pay the mercs to ring. Do something similar to Armored Core 5 merc system. This will give the game a more mercenary feel. So those players who don't want to actually be in a corp but want to make a name for themselves can do so.

Aurum makes the Dust world surive. I'm tired of seeing "oh your just a pay to win scrub because you use aurum items." Without players using those items and using RL money this game dies from no funding so instead of whining about pay to win think of items use would actually want to pay aurum for. I want to see complex items that reduce CPU/PG for every module type.

As much as i want to say the gun mechanics of this game suck it truly doesn't. Yeah hit detection is whack sometimes but its not because of the gun mechanics. I want to say its from server lag making ping more noticeable from player to player so when you see bullets registering without hitting the character model its because there is intense amounts of ping. At least that's what i think. That is something that needs fixed but i have no idea how to make that happen.

More statistics. How hard it it to show statistics on the leaderboards that you guys have somewhere in your database. The last couple of events have been based on stats we cant even see but you made sure you had them written down somewere. I want to see more stats. Show me Assists, CRU,SD,Turrets,Objectives captured/destroyed/dehacked/defended, Healing Given/ recieved. On a daily, weekly,monthly, lifetime scale. Us gamers like our stats now show them to us.

25 threads about an OP weapon? Mmmm, I'm sure there is more than 25 players that suck as hell so I don't think that's a really info about a weapon

A lot of good players spoke out about the caldari logi and flaylock as soon as they had a chance to see it in action. The flaylock was fixable during the daily reset. Caldari Logi fix could have been included in 1.1, was pretty obvious even at that point.

Speaking of the caldari logi... it didn't need that kind of CPU nerf. Fixing the bonus alone would have been fine.

They could have released this patch a week after Uprising 1.0 and fixed the last few months of blatant imbalance.

I like the nerf if you aren't taking a low slot and giving it another equip. 1 suit getting 9 highs and low in game is not balance.

No the merc system was solid in that game. Your down a merc so u click a hire merc button to see who is mercing themselves out they have a rank base on how good they have done in the past week and you buy them. Thier rank determines their pay grade as well. Was my favorite part of the game. Take that system and apply it to this game and you have a very successful way of getting ringers for pc matches based on role skll and payment required.

OMS was ambush with 80 clones supply depots and CRU's then turrets that dropped at certain time intervals. Now with the removal of OMS we have ambush 50 clones depending on map, with a supply and cru and after a certain amount of time turrets drop. Like it was early chromosone. Which means it is a loss of a game mode. Edit The exact opposite of what we have been screaming for even in closed beta. now they have consolidated even more of the new players in pubstomping matches against the older players.

As far as weekly balancing goes that NEEDS to be done or else dust continues to die because everyone flocks to one thing CCP changes it then everyone cries respec. if you dont give people the time to flock into something nobody whines about its overuse then continue to whine of lost skll points from a change.

Can't disagree to anything really. - On AUR stuff - the hardcore players/buyers of AUR are running out of the need to buy it. Bring in something sort of 'End Game Content' as MMO people like to call it. Some people may not want to skill into another role, but would rather enhance the one they've invested in. Ex: Color schemes, Flashy Suits, Suits w/o roles that are unique (like a suit with 2 grenade slots) - OMS - Just bring it back or remove regular Ambush and just have OMS

LLAV obviously OP. Tac rifle was op. flaylock was op. Assault forge guns are op. Thread are/were brought up daily about all of these weapons doesnt that show the community agrres something needs to change. The old players say" adapt or die" that is a good statement i stand behind however it is completely ignorant to these new players. The game is dying if we dont create a way to be eased into this game to allow the new players who like this game a chance to get to the competitive level the vets are at. OP weapons ruin the game and if all the new people see it as op and some of the older people can back their QQing up. CHANGE IT.

Thats the point of tweeking, if they dont try new things to see if they work, then Academy would just be a dull uninspired toss in. They already said why they did it yet you dont comment on it. Why is a "vet" playing Academy anyways? The changes are suppose to help newcomers get accustomed, not "vets" like you.

I agree this is an issue and should be dealt with faster but judging whether a weapon is OP or not based solely on forum spam is not acceptable. CCP is slowly getting there, lets hope CCP doesnt croak to crutcher outcry. Quote: Everyday a new person downloads dust for the first time and gets on and gets raped indiscriminately. "Well that game was garbage back to CoD." Introduce matchmaking of some kind. SP based; Gear based; skill based; it doesn't matter to me how you guys do it just make it happen. you will find those new people who log onto this game will stay if they don't get pubstomped every time they try to play. I agree but as others have said, its hard to make a decent MM with such a low population or else we'll have those 5-8 minute queues just to let the system make a perfect match while proto pubstompers could be stuck in MM even longer.
Doc Noah Algintal Core Gallente Federation 396	Posted - 2013.08.01 07:39:00 - [29] - Quote -2nd part since forum doesnt allow >5 quotes in one post- Quote: Make a real merc system for PC matches if you are not in the same alliance or corp you have to pay the mercs to ring. Do something similar to Armored Core 5 merc system. This will give the game a more mercenary feel. So those players who don't want to actually be in a corp but want to make a name for themselves can do so. Would like to see this happen. Quote: Aurum makes the Dust world surive. I'm tired of seeing "oh your just a pay to win scrub because you use aurum items." Without players using those items and using RL money this game dies from no funding so instead of whining about pay to win think of items use would actually want to pay aurum for. I want to see complex items that reduce CPU/PG for every module type. Blatant P2W is blatant. I really dont have anything to say other than "Its not happening". The community has been asking for more cosmetic things or anything generally "cool". Personally I have wanted to get the Blood saga vet package but held off since I didnt want a Caldari suit nor a sniper rifle. Hopefully CCP will let us choose among several packages or even a custom package option. Quote: As much as i want to say the gun mechanics of this game suck it truly doesn't. Yeah hit detection is whack sometimes but its not because of the gun mechanics. I want to say its from server lag making ping more noticeable from player to player so when you see bullets registering without hitting the character model its because there is intense amounts of ping. At least that's what i think. That is something that needs fixed but i have no idea how to make that happen. Doesnt seem like its "just" ping related. Whatever they did in 1.2 made the problem a 100x worse. There wasnt even a huge population boom either so its not like Tranq couldnt handle the 4-5k population. Quote: More statistics. How hard it it to show statistics on the leaderboards that you guys have somewhere in your database. The last couple of events have been based on stats we cant even see but you made sure you had them written down somewere. I want to see more stats. Show me Assists, CRU,SD,Turrets,Objectives captured/destroyed/dehacked/defended, Healing Given/ recieved. On a daily, weekly,monthly, lifetime scale. Us gamers like our stats now show them to us. No doubt in my mind that CCP would implement a better leadboard/stat tracking, even working in partnership with 3rd party sites like EVE does with their battle tracker thingy. It just isnt a priority right now and anyone could see that.

I highly doubt that the same people play all day everyday so... 3,500x24=84,000 or some **** like that. Think that there is actually a thread about it somewhere...
