So BUST 514 has about less than 50 days of life left in it?

Because I have a strong suspicion that it's basically just being pulled out of their ass, where it grew like some malevolent, bitter tumor of wishful thinking and grumpy self-delusion.

I'd like to know that aswell, last I checked the game has a solid playerbase of maybe around 15 000 players around the clock, since at any given moment the population of the DUST servers seems to hover the 5000 region.

But seriously, can't you guys just stop with the frigging "DUST is dead, DUST sucks, DUST is dying" threads? They're frigging everywhere and are starting to get annoying.


15k players on a f2p game is atrocious.



Try harder. Troll is not subtle enough. Too overt.


It's funny how you're trolling by calling someone else a troll :P

I guess everyone missed CCP's comment that when the PS4 comes out they'll just release a client compatible with it. The meat of the game resides on Tranquility.

This was discussed when the game was first announced as being a PS 3 exclusive.

Lies and slander. I cannot, for the life of me, fathom how CCP would be able to cross the great divide between the PS3 and PS4 when the Unreal engine is already ready for the PS4. How is it possible that my narrow world view is wrong in this situation?! DUST IS CLEARLY DEAD.

"crap"?

I actually really like the way DUST plays...


I just want to make it clear that I have never played it but the impression from this thread is that it isn't great.
Personally, I'd be very happy for CCP if they are able to make lots of cash from Dust and keep developing it into something truly outstanding.

The problem with the console generation (ie my kids who are teenagers) is they never stick around for any particular game where as the PC gaming community plays games long past their life span. My old military realism gaming clan the 7th cavalry still runs an COD4 server that stays pretty full. For the older generation like myself I detest the consoles.

My 17 year old is coming around and wants me to get him BF4 for his PC since BF3 on my PC kicks the console versions ass in everything from graphics to FPS. I also just got him his own Eve account and he loves the game. PC's are just far better platforms and DUST should have been released for the PC to begin with.

So he plays BF3 and then he goes on to BF4? I went Halo:CE - Halo 2 - Halo ODST - Halo 3 - Halo Reach - Halo 4.... only reason I won't go 5 is b/c I don't like what happened to the new XBox. If people say DUST failed b/c "console gamers don't stick around" they are just wrong. Who here has played more than one version of GTA? Ghost Recon / Rainbow Six? If DUST fails it's because DUST isn't a very good game atm. That's the only reason. The platform is fine, the gamers are fine... DUST just isn't that compelling to play.

"He's disagreeing with me, he must be trolling!"

Why don't you just look up some stats on other current f2p games rather than toting around your fanboism. 15k is awful for a f2p shooter. Not even mentioning the god awful reviews it got.

I saw BUST 514 and came running.

Was hoping for a new FPS game involving large spectacular breasts.



I am so disappointed that it hurts.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Dust has life left in it?

That's new.

I actually own a PS3, but playing a backward FPS on it makes about as much sense as trying to mountainbike in a wheelchair.

There might be a problem with revival because PCs already have Blacklight, Planetside, MW, APB Reloaded and upcoming The Division, Destiny, Firefall MMO shooters - and they are damn good (if not great).



You realize how many PC and Mac players would actually play it ? I say a great deal of Eve players don't play it because they are mostly PC gamers. I think if it was made for PC, they would give it a chance, especially if DUST really meant something to the EVE Universe. I don't play console games, and I probably would play DUST if it was on PC.

Ooo, I missed this one. Should probably point out that Bungie has yet to confirm a PC version of Destiny, it's still a console exclusive right now.

Toodles!

Just play Dust 514 and you will see it is not dead. Nor are their forums.
