The word is out and we now that Dust 514 is in the final internal beta test CCP is having all the fun CoolCool. How is it preforming and how are the first impressions?

I am really looking forward to this new side of EVE, I do think a lot of players in EVE will gain from this and something new to relate to. I do think many players that are thinking it will fail will be wrong. I do think CCP will get new players from a new group ruthless players that will kill anything for any price. I am looking forward to kill them from orbit and kill my mates from ground from the planets. :)

We must just adapt to whats coming, it will be fun Big smileBig smileBig smile my eve clients are ready and my Playstation 3 ..... the best from both worlds.

Go Go CCP and stay cool.

beta players couldn't tell you if the game is good or bad if they wanted.

You're asking CCP to break (their own) NDA on (their own) public forums?

Isn't internal beta just alpha? Or is closed and open beta just external alpha? It would explain a few things. (<.<) Incarna

Alpha = Technology demo
Closed beta = pre-Alpha
Open beta = Alpha
Release = Shrink Wrap Beta


On a more serous note as much as I gripe about the NEX and CCP's boneheaded move towards MT I actually think the concept of Dust is brilliant and I hope they figure out how to pull it off.

We've been playtesting DUST 514 for a while, though I don't know if I'd call it anything like a "final internal beta test" as mentioned above.

This isn't something we announced ala a Mortal Kombat "It haaaas begun!" -- rather, just something that some of us at CCP mentioned on Twitter some weeks back as more of us got our hands on DUST and began slaughtering our beloved colleagues in playtests.

Dude, we need moar videos! The graphics are gorgeous, and we know you guys at CCP have been keeping the next generations of Spielbergs locked up in your basements, wipping them while they work out all the amazing trailers and teasers you guys keep putting out. Take for instance this little piece of genius, since we're on the topic of Dust. I frown when I hear of playstations and FPSs, but this got me on the edge of my seat, wanting for more!

Also, since I'm on the topic of videos - moar EVE videos of any kind!

Did you guys manage to find a placement student for the Newcastle Office? If so were they from Northumbria Uni?

Sorry, I don't know. I've been working from the Shanghai office for about five months now but I haven't visited Newcastle at all so far.

If we're lucky it will never make it out of beta.

not that I have a PS3, but CCP should put out a public beta months in advance before release. If not, pretend to be astounded of all the bugs and problems missed by devs and exploited by players.

Also the public beta testers are going to play the game how they want to, they're not informed or think like devs, so different behaviors and how they instrument the weapons / vehicles fall through, plus feedback on improvements before launch.

how about some PC support for us real gamers? i'm not buying a f$%#ing PS3

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

It was announced that Beta testing would go public around Christmas time I believe.
