EVE General Discussion

Hopefully when we are finally able to explore derelict stations with our Avatars we will also be able to use guns. So we won't even need dust514 to get our shooting in face fix.

The only feeling I have is an intense desire to nuke them from orbit......

Planetside 2 and ARMA will continue to fulfull my "shoot in face repeatedly" needs.

Easy fix. We can have our own weapons. Or our own protective suits. Or whatever.

no


no, no and no.


Lets see, with CCP's track record, that would be jesus features, 1/2 done addons and incomplete additions that will be "iterated" later...

nope, don't see the attraction.....

The problem I've found with Sony personally, albeit with limited experience as they made me mad the first time, is that they bully their customers, offer no compromise, and refuse to offer decent customer support, or even answers to reasonable questions for that matter. The other thing I've found, is they tend to be money-grubbing, cash hogs trying to maximize profits without offering a reasonable level of service.

Between the two, it's a good thing Playstation games don't often require you to deal with them. If I had to have one more attempt at conversation or eliciting customer support from SOE or Station.com, I think I'd probably shove a bomb up their collective wazoo. Kidding of course, but it took me 5-6 years to lose the anger I had over the first round of bs.

That being said, despite very rare hiccups, too often updates, perpetual beta Home, blinky, marginally functional service connections and often offline servers, the PS3 actually works pretty well for something that cost ~$300.

It doesn't have a lot of interesting games, it actually did cost too much, and the whole community thing is kind of corny, but I don't need any of that to play Dust aside from being signed in and having that connection stable. Also I suppose, the ability to access the store to download Dust on release if needed. That's fine, and it works so far.

Also, Playstation Network beats SOE, and floors Station.com

Hypothetically, our avatars might be using ordinary, non-Dustbunny guns?

from people who have played in the beta, i hear its going to be awesome. from people who didnt play in the beta, i hear a lot of... meh.

So, take it as you will. The leaks that I have seen seemed a bit choppy, and the graphics seemed so slightly miss the mark. But, the info I am working off of is a bit out of date. I hear that they worked on those facets during the course of the beta. So, I am reserving judgement. My brother and I will be checking this out when it is released. He is more into FPS's. Ill be looking forward to what he says.

After he looked it up online, he was extremely interested and thought the interplay between eve and an FPS was brilliant. But, one immediate concern he had was with the servers. Are they reliable, and responsive? His second concern was the system choice. He was very reluctant to buy a PS3 for one game. Despite how much he was looking forward to it.

I would actually encourage you to ask some people who live and breath FPS's. Do not to place too much emphasis on Eve Players point of view. After all, if Dust is to succeed, it will be due to the FPS community embrasing it, not the Eve Community.

And the dust bunnies must still be around to fight other dust bunnies since our non-dust bunny guns aren't strong enough to defeat the other dust bunnies.

What exactly is DUST even supposed to do for us? I mean does anyone know something concrete about what the release will actually contain without shoveling us some future vision type of stuff. So far what I've heard is, that it's mostly irrelevant for us, but it may not be at some point in the future. Am I supposed to be excited for that? That just sounds like they've got nothing concrete to show/deliver, that is of any importance to us. I hope I'm wrong, but currently they've given me no reason to believe so.

I just don't give a crap about console games at first, then FPS "uber" games are always, always and absolutely always crack by Aimbot fans and this one will not be different, if it's not already available it will be soon available on Steam with full cracks for a couple dollars.

Pick together console games + FPS (regroups the largest hackers community player style) = uninteresting for me.

The game it self looks cool but it looks as cool as many other FPS games with different ways to suit your dude etc but it's just another FPS game to me nothing else, at least for now.
Not spiting on those guys work but even if I can understand this market is the kind of market CCP needs to be and bring THE + others don't (single shard/connection with Eve), attract more customers etc.

If you make a PC version some day CCP I will play it when I get bored of Eve, because this happens and when it happens I already play some FPS games, but PC FPS games.
