A quick summary and random ramblings about the patch notes found here

Quote:
Dust 514
The DUST 514 Uprising build is deployed to Tranquility! Head on over to this forum post for more information!

Let's be honest with ourselves for just a minute; the only reason we're having an extended downtime of 4.5h is because of this, I'm glad that CCP atleast threw in some fixes and eye candy for us to look forward to while we wait. Also good to push the stuff that's ready out the door while work continues on Odyssey, less stuff that needs to be in the loop.

Quote:

The repeating Buy button in the LP Store expanded Amount menu has been changed to Accept and made consistent in appearance with the Buy button.

If only we could have repeating function for industry aswell... CCP, put any employee that says no to run an in(ter)vention tower on all lines, and then manufacture the items.

Quote:
The following content has received the V3 treatment, making it much prettier:
Capital ships and Capital wrecks.
Drones.
Rogue Drones.
Ship Hangars.

Very much needed facelift, space battles has never looked prettier! What is left to V3 now, the stations themselves?

Quote:

Users can no longer loot items in space after entering warp.

Does this apply to anything and everything, eg POCO's? If so the end of cloaky lowsec drive-by's.

[bug fixes]
What's better than having pretty stuff? Pretty stuff that works! It's nice when stuff is working as intended, kudos. See if you can add more items to the market, like Hyasyoda Mobile Lab

Quote:

Market start up times after a server restart have been improved significantly
The single turret slot has been removed from the Phoenix.
Wormhole collapse animations have returned.

Woot! Pirate

Edit: Found a clip of the "old" wormhole collapse
Edit 2: CCP added the Naglfar changes:

Naglfar
  • Addition of a fixed role bonus of 50% damage to Capital Projectile Turrets
  • Removed launcher slots, high slot number reduced from 5 to 3
  • CPU reduced to 670, powergrid decreased to 416000 to compensate for the removed high slots

Capital ships v3 Big smile

I didn't even know you could loot whilst in warp til just now :(

Please stop adding contract-only stuff to the market unless you let me know ahead of time so I can dump Twisted

do the wormhole collapse animations resemble the one in Eve: Origins when the eve gate collapsed? Cause that would be awesome. Which brings to mind, might as well toss in a suggestion here, why not make it so everytime a WH collapses it's seen as a mini-nova type event in the system? Would be awesome IMO.

Unfortunately it is not the EVE components that are taking the 4.5 hours it is the total rebuild of Dust & intergrate all the new EVE / Dust Low-Sec components!

From what I saw at Fanfest Dust is getting a total makeover better graphics, more items, maps and is being deployed to Low-Sec in EVE for Planetary Conquest.

If it wasn't a twitch / reaction speed based FPS I would be tempted to buy a PS3 to play Dust it now looks stunning!

Eve and Dust are joined at the hip now, so except more of this in the future : deal with it.
This is my signature. There are many others like it, but this one is mine.  Without me, my signature is useless. Without my signature, I am useless

You make money playing this game? Isn't that a EULA violation?

Or were you referring to imaginary in-game currency? If so, why the butthurt?

You know, the amount of time it takes to deploy a patch, double-check that things are okay on the server side, ensure the database is back online and running smoothly, doing QA on the cluster to make sure its production-ready again, taking a short break for lunch....nawww, that 4.5 hours is obviously not worth anything and CCP should be ashamed of keeping us out of the game!

2 thoughts.

1) **** DUST, no one really wants it, having played for approx 15 hours over the past 2 weeks, all I can say is that it is at best an average FPS. Feedback from console bunnie friends indicate it is **** compared to the HALO franchise ... one even said it felt like a game from 2008.

2)Seriously **** DUST.
