i really dont like it...its a bit retarded to me..

so much hype for this game yet its so dissapointing....i doubt it will be any diff even when they update it...i just dont enjoy it really. it seems over complicated for what you really end up doing IN GAME

Kind of like Starhawk :l

Loved the Beta. Thought it was gonna turn out to be a really good game.

Then it ended up being a campfest and a race to see who could get a Hawk in the sky first. It's basically a bunch of guys flying around in hawks every game, cluster bombing anyone who spawns in. If I wanted to fly around in a plane, I would've bought Secret Weapons Over Normandy. :l

Re: Dust Beta players - share your impressions with us....

Ooh ooohh I'll give you my essay!

Well I've been playing since last night and my experience is this:

- They said you couldnt buy anything to give you an advantage. Wrong lol  You can buy your way through the hardships of being a nooby noob.  They give you the option to buy advanced gear, guns, equipment, and skill

Mulitipliers.  Retarded imo.  they should have just stuck with what they said they were gonna do and only sell things

like customizations on the look of things and such.

- BEsides that, coming into this game as a noob and playing against people that have already gotten a crap load of skill, weapons, armor, etc.. is really challenging.

- I've been trying to play to get an assult rifle that would match up against what people are carrying but it's expensive skill-wise.  I spent some other things on things that I didn't need ( now a day later I kind of got the gist of how skills work ) and i've been stuck with beginner guns.  This game is super deep compared to any fps I've played and for those that are playing it now, you, us, we are going to be very useful in giving everyone we play with shortcuts when the game comes out because hoooooly s=h=i=t is this games confusing.

- Now, gameplay-wise I am not doing to bad with nobody to direct me as a beginner.  See, Mag had lag compensation (meaning what you point at is what will pretty much register ).  Dust is like any other server based shooter.  You have to manually compensate for lag.  A little annoyance but i can overcome with practice.  Now what is unacceptable is how glitchy the game is.  So glitchy in fact that I freeze (no joke) every other game!  I have to restart my ps3 and go through that 5 minute freaking startup. lol  Deployment is glitchy too.

- Vehicles, blasters, and other installments are OP to me as a beginner.  Seems everybody that does good uses them.  I do not specifically because I only atm care about getting better at the gun game.  Atm very very hard to kill someone with a clip. I'm getting about 15 to 20 headshots before they go down.  I actually laugh at how the people in this game shoot up close.  because the strafe speed is so high, it's almost cartoon-like to see them go left, right, left, right... AND IT WORKS!  It's almost impossible to aim at those a=s=s=h=o=l=e=s!  the only way i can kill them is to hip fire.

So to sum it up, the game has some amazing ideas.  Things I wish Mag would've grown to become.  But let me tell you, Mag's gameplay is lightyears ahead.  It's hard to imagine that at the games current state, that they will get it up and running as smooth other FPS games.  This is by far the worst I've experienced.  With it's glitchiness, freezing, faux hit markers ( and you know i'm pretty accurate ), Vehicular Dominance, Paid skill boosts and gear, cartoon-like/jumpy character movement, and needing an extremely high tolerance for gameplay annoyances.. this game will be put down early by all but the most hard-core tryhards... like me.. lol  I will keep playing till I put my fist through my screen.

Mag is still King. Battlefield on PC is second.  This game will have a place if they Focus more on how to properly program an FPS.  #1 thing is that it needs to be smooooooooth! MAG, COD, BF, Resist, TF2, CS.. smooth, smooth , smooth.  At the moment I would compare Dust gameplay feel to Crysis2 . But worse.  Get it right Dust, or you are going to lose a lot of potential spenders.  Just remember that word CCP, smoooooooth.

The forums over there will be so much better once you are all purged, now if only Longface would breach the NDA too....

Lol the dust forums are pathetic, just a bunch of CCP ass lickers who don't have a clue about how to make FPS games survive. Their all in a little dream world thinking that a game can be successful and not be modified to appeal to the masses. MAG had the same idea, then 2.0 was introduced once they realised the game wouldn't survive unless it became more mainstream. CCP will do the same if they want to keep their jobs.

Also you realise people have posted loads of videos up on Dust? No one cares about the NDA anymore its just being ignored because its not being enforced.

@ Chastaine - That was a very smooth reply, and thorough.

I'm not overly worried about the low framerate and lag, it is as most of you have said, the core gameplay that needs a serious buff if this game is to be playable over time.

Re: Dust Beta players - share your impressions with us....

i liked so far, yes they need to fix some things on gameplay but for a game that its going to be for free looks good, doesnt have graphics and elements of other FPS yet(!?) but what will make different is the customization of the player and community support, corp battles...

Re: Dust Beta players - share your impressions with us....

I for one enjoy the beta. It has it's problems but it's a beta! I have been on the forums and told them my griefs with game which is pretty much what the whole community thinks. The BETA has tons of potential so I'll stick it out if. It clearly says work in progress but some people view the BETA like its a full blown retail version these same people aren't on the forums trying to help either!
