Nika Dekaia	Posted - 2011.01.08 20:58:00 - [2] Originally by: moosemann Waht does everyone think about Dust 514? Combineing EVE Online pc with a FPS on Xbox and PS3 I think you're god damn late to the discussion. Even more for posting a thread about it.
Zhim'Fufu	Posted - 2011.01.08 21:06:00 - [3] Would be nice if ccp at least gave us an update of some sort though they are probably going to wait till fanfest like usual. Maybe there will be a playable build then too I hope.

Drokar Gazer DISORDERLY CONDUCT.	Posted - 2011.01.09 00:25:00 - [6] LOL.... Dust 514 will never be released. PI is worthless and no one is going to fight over it, and thats the entire point of Dust. It was a bad idea to begin with and the reason things have been so quiet is cuz ccp isnt doint anything with it. No different than usual...

roastduck Gallente MerTeK	Posted - 2011.01.09 00:33:00 - [7] Planets aren't going to be fought over for PI as much as they are for sovereignty.
Cyprus Black Caldari Perkone	Posted - 2011.01.09 02:43:00 - [8] DUST 514 won't be as great as CCP believes it to be. The market for FPS console games is already saturated. What makes this game any different than the others? Actions that happen in DUST 514 happen in EvE and vice verse. Ok so what does that really mean to the casual console player? Why should they give a crap about interacting with some online MMO game they don't play nor care about? Other than this feature, what else helps DUST stand apart from other FPS's? ________ 45 minutes & 720 clicks per six hours. 3 hours & 2,880 clicks per day. 21 hours & 20,160 clicks per week. 4 days & 89,280 clicks per month. For the love of God, CCP. Fix PI.

Michwich	Posted - 2011.01.09 02:46:00 - [10] I think it shows how stupid and reactionary CCP is jumping on the console bandwagon. Lots of people will be fired. Cant wait.

Comrade Tsukae	Posted - 2011.01.09 02:46:00 - [11] Might play the Dust fps over other ones simply because I like the setting. All fps are the same to me now days which is why I don't bother with them anymore.
roastduck Gallente MerTeK	Posted - 2011.01.09 03:18:00 - [12] I, personally, will be playing Dust during mining operations. Munching the ore on my PC and killin' folk on teh console.
Uzrial	Posted - 2011.01.09 06:08:00 - [13] Edited by: Uzrial on 09/01/2011 06:08:21 Compare the 'gaming' intelligence of your average FPS player and your average industrial player (those who will need the FPS guys). Dust 514 will be populated with a bunch of school kids who really don't care if they win or lose, they just want to shoot **. Then all those Dust players will be wondering what EVE is and start playing (really the whole point of DUST 514) and so our server will be filled with all kinds of juicy nublets who will probably quit a few days later when they realize they simply can't shoot stuff to get the cool stuff. Then EVE players will go and play DUST for a bit until they realize, "why the hell am I helping some other *** save his , when I could be making my own ISK?" If I want to shoot **, I will go play BFBC2 for free

As a console player, I submit that you have no idea what you're talking about. For me, Dust IS the next CoD game. I will play Dust almost exclusively, with only brief breaks into CoD because all games (yes, even our precious EVE) get boring as **** sometimes, and I need something else to do for a bit, but Dust will be my main game on console. I know a core group of guys I used to play Planetside with (ex-military guys who took real-world tactics and applied them to a PC MMOFPS with great success) who are also pretty excited about Dust, and who will also play. I grant you, a large portion of console FPS players are over(under?)-parented, foul-mouthed preteens, who live for the twitch gameplay and getting the next kill, but for every kid I mute, there are 5 guys shouting for him to GTFO of our game so we can get work done. Work meaning winning, usually with some coordination, actual tactics if we know each other well enough. also,
Vabjekf Caldari	Posted - 2011.01.09 11:34:00 - [26] I just hope it comes out for PC. I have a ps3 right here, sitting next to me. Connected to a nice screen that is also right next to me. I could theoretically play this on the ps3 and play eve on my PC simultaneously. But i wont. Because console FPSs are lame.

Dorian Wylde	Posted - 2011.01.09 13:56:00 - [31] Sorry to say, but there will likely never be a PC port. It would be too unfair to the console players. A controller no matter how good the technology, no matter how good the player, simply cannot match the accuracy and precision of a mouse.

As an avid console player aswell as pc's console gamers dont generaly give a ** about wow! My point was it HAS to compete with THE MOST succesful console based fps'ers to date.
Zhim'Fufu	Posted - 2011.01.09 15:57:00 - [34] Originally by: knickersoffalot My point was it HAS to compete with THE MOST succesful console based fps'ers to date. No, it doesn't. CCP said they are going to use the same marketing model as eve with a slow steady buildup of the playerbase so all they really need to do is make sure there are enough players to form a core group to help new players get involved. As long as sov is influanced in a meaningful way that core will be eve players who also happen to have a console which by all accounts is a fairly hefty portion of the playerbase. Also Dust will be updated with new maps and features on a regular basis for free unlike the clone of duty series that tosses in a couple of new maps and some tweaks then charges you full retail for the pleasure of playing it. So as long as CCP get the fps part of the game done right the rest will take care of itself especially as word of mouth and positive reviews come in.

So i say again a couple of hundred thousand copies total will be good how? -edit- Dont get me wrong i am not trying to kick CCP but saying it does not have to compete with the other console titles is bloody ludicrous.
Zhim'Fufu	Posted - 2011.01.09 16:27:00 - [37] Originally by: knickersoffalot So selling a couple of hundred thousand copies is good? ......... Dont get me wrong i am not trying to kick CCP but saying it does not have to compete with the other console titles is bloody ludicrous. As to the first part if they sold a couple of hundred thousand copies and retained just 30% of the players I bet ccp marketing would do backflips of joy. Remember kids that this is going to be a microtransaction based game so ccp makes money off it everytime someone want to get the upper hand. As to the second part CCP doesn't compete with other mmo makers like blizzard because their mmo's are so different in concept and execution even though they are technically the same game of skilling up to pwn. So again, no, dust does not have to compete with cod to succeed.

Compared with WoW or SW:TOR or the whole cake of the MMO market that is a very small piece. Now look at CCP and how they do. From what I can see they're doing great with this kind of market share. If CCP would grow any faster the company would probably shred itself to pieces, as the structure to manage this kind of thing doesn't grow over night.. My assumption thus is simple: if Dust manages a similar piece of active subscriber accounts from the Console-FPS-Market cake, then CCP did good and will be fine. It doesn't need to achieve the numbers of CoD or Halo to be successful for CCP. support Public Idea Tracker \| 24hr PLEX

Dante Marcellus Minmatar Belligerent Underpayed Tactical Team	Posted - 2011.01.09 21:02:00 - [55] While it is my first instinct to sit here and troll people, defend something that hasn't even come out yet and point out all of the reasons as to why people are wrong -- I can't. Some great points have been brought up: 1. What will CCP do when the next console comes out? 2. Will console players have the attention span and/or drive to keep playing DUST 514? 3. How will the random average smacktard Joe react to a cash shop in this shiny new FPS he/she purchased? And one of my own questions - will interacting with these people be worth my while? lol While I am an optimistic person and I applaud CCP for doing something like this, I also see a lot of ways this could tank horribly.

I cant think of a console game i have played for 3+ years How many console games have been designed to last for 3+ years? Compare that to how many PC games you've played for a total of 4 hoursà It's the developers and their offerings ù not the players. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki

Port the game to the new console? CCP probably never thought of that. I'm sure they are totally unaware. Why is that even a problem, doom&gloom says the game wont have any customers 2-3 months after launch. Originally by: Dante Marcellus 2. Will console players have the attention span and/or drive to keep playing DUST 514? Well, I'm sure the majority wont. Let me ask you another question.. Do PC-MMO-Players like PvP games where you can full-loot? Originally by: Dante Marcellus 3. How will the random average smacktard Joe react to a cash shop in this shiny new FPS he/she purchased? Really no idea. Somebody will have to run a trial to find out I guess support Public Idea Tracker \| 24hr PLEX
Comrade Tsukae	Posted - 2011.01.09 22:33:00 - [58] I really do think Dust is an awesome idea, but some of the points made here are valid. It is unlikely it will hold the attention of the console community more than a few months unless it somehow manages to become the next best FPS. Then it might hold their attention a year or two at most.
Kuso Tabeteshine	Posted - 2011.01.09 23:32:00 - [59] Dust will be nothing more than a bad ripoff of Planetside, which was a bad ripoff of Tribes 2. People who think it's revolutionary in some way have no clue.
Samuel Caldara	Posted - 2011.01.10 00:38:00 - [60] If CCP can actually combine good FPS qualities with something different I can almost guarantee the game will do well. I don't know about everyone else but i'm starting to get a little bored of the modern warfare killing guerrilla fighters and stuff with weapons we are all very familiar with. If CCP can give something new, something that changes the playing field, it will probably do well. Things I (I can't speak for anyone else) feel it should have. Aircraft: Give us the ability to fly with a high ceiling on the map, transport troops etc Large Battles: Come on, you can pack 2000 into a system (with lag admittably) give us 120 on a map or something like that. Make it FEEL like a huge battle! Vehicles: Tanks, Fast Attack Vehicles. From the trailer I think you have that down. Make the maps BIG: If you have the ability to pack a large amount of people into a map, make it massive. Don't give us little villages give us massive cities, sprawling coutryside, or maze like fortifications. Make it feel like we are fighting over something important. Give Weapons kick and power: Unless there is a specific reason to eliminate some recoil make the guns kick hard when we shoot them. Also, don't go the black ops route of having to us an entire clip to kill a guy in regular death match. It shouldn't be two bullets but make it realistic. Give us this and you'll probably have a winner. I've never actually done PI but reading some of the other comments I get the feeling that worlds have little value individually and are probably not worth fighting over. Perhaps if you control the entire world (with no other alliances/corporations having extractors on that planet) you can find more rare materials?
