Overall? I like it...
My biggest gripe is how long is it going to stay in Beta?
Sniper Aiming seems a little off, but that may be because I am use to other FPSers, so we shall see with time.
Skill progression is ok, but I have had a couple of matches where people have just stood afk in battle just to get their points, trouble is how do you punish these without punishing those that are new and are just crap awful at the game?
I know it is in Beta but sometimes the end of a round just takes a little too long to finish, and I have had it were it froze for a bit, and then no skill points or isk are received, particularly annoying when you had one of your best rounds yet!
Another point that I think is important to address as soon as possible is customizable controls, currently you can only use the default with the controller (no idea of the others) this is a let down, as it may put of some people, and in beta it is a good opportunity to for people to get comfortable and get will play more which can only mean more data.
Again may be a beta issue but I think some of the graphics could be improved a ilttle, it does not feel like EVE in its looks at times, but I think this will come with time
Finally Hurry up and enable isk transfers between EVE and DUST, I want to put all my efforts into DUST now I have temporarily lost interest in EVE :) |

I'm also a veteran EVE player and found in Dust 514 a reason to plug the PS3 and play with it. The "instant action" is something I was missing because, sometimes, EVE can be a little boring when you are waiting for something to happen.
I hope Dust 514 get released in PC, so I don't have to walk to another room to play :D |

In regards to that AFK merc you found, don't worry. According to this tweet, CCP will be implementing Friendly Fire soon so you can punish that moron yourself. Vigilante justice feels much better that way.

I avoid waling into another room by using my PS3 monitor for both the console and laptop. So I have been logged into both Eve accounts and DUST at the same time and just switch back and forth using the input button on the monitor. Perhaps, if you have a monitor that allows multiple inputs, you could make use of that.

Great work; one feedback request: an option to reduce load times by not loading environments that aren't necessary to the battles.
Please consider giving Dust514 players the option of not loading their version of the Captains Quarters. After initially loading, or after a match, we wait for the player's quarters to load, even if we access skills, fittings, etc. through the Neocon rather than through any of the locations in the quarters.
If that load time can be reduced by checking an system option box to "Disable loading player quarters." I'd check it in a heartbeat, even if it saved a minimal load time. Same for the war barge. A black screen with the NeoCon options would suit me just fine, after I've explored the quarters and war barge once.
Give us the option to reduce load times, after we've seen the beautiful work you've done on creating those environments repeated so often that we'd rather have faster load times than appreciate those environments again.
Thank you for listening (reading), CCP |

Just remember, if they happen to be standing at a turret and punching commands into their personal computer, they are actually operating the turret. I sometimes saw these guys and thought they were afk. Maybe they are sometimes, but if the turret is moving, chances are they aren't.
Also, sure way to know is if they are in the MCC and just sitting there like stumps.

this is what i like, other beta's i have participated in give you the option to supply textual feedback, in the past i have written detailed logs and suggestions for changing code to make it run smoothly - ofc completely ignored , it then came to my attention that the people i was testing for (not mentioning any names) simply wanted my game play hrs and not interested in any player input.
point is; nice to see ccp, once again after 4 yrs playing still keeping up their promises, which i may add hasn't been so in 100% other games I've played. i think it's partially why a good % of players stuck to eve though it's rough patches. |

Reminds me of 'idlers' in TF2.
I think CCP ought to just give up SP gain for matches and just go with passive SP gain like in Eve. |

Beta scheduled to last until summer 2013.
Sniping may get adjusted soon to have bullet drop.
AFKers are going to get tracked and dealt with. Newberries who at least try will keep the current level of compensation.
Battleservers are getting stressed to hell this week and for a while so they keep fixing it upgrading and patching it it better.
It is a large gripe, more implementations coming soon at least.
Graphics like eve will not stop ever improving, new rendering system being brought in the next 'expansion' due out in mid feburary-ish.
Isk transfers are a careful sticky topic I wouldn't be surprised if they hold off on this further.

I am a long time Eve player, but not an FPS person. I like the game very much. It would be nice to have a training grounds instance where I can go to get the hang of the controls, handling different weapons and controlling the various type of vehicles. It seems unfair to my team for me go off somewhere and practice. (Actually, it might be better for them) It almost insta-die as I have never used thumb controls in my almost 50 years of life. |

Training grounds have been delayed until the tutorial tools to be developed to make it possible. For now you have to settle with making a dust 514 noob corp and fight against yourselves.
