Thar Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 So yeah, never thought I'd see the day where an online console shooter was free. Though, I never played EVE online for obvious reasons (crappy computer is crappy.) Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaWave Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 It's been a long time since I last played EVE Online. Back then, I used my dad's much better computer to play. Nowadays, this computer couldn't handle it. But I remember it being fun. As for Dust, just finished my first match of Skirmish. Seems really fun.

Makο Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Dust has for me the same problem something like Battlefield has. The controls seem a little...floaty to me. Like there's a .3 or so second delay between actions. It could just be it being in beta, or my imagination, but it really bothers me. Anyway, BACK IN MY DAY, YOU HAD TO PLAY A WEEK JUST TO GET THE MASS DRIVER But seriously. After one of the major updates (that reset most everything for me), I managed to get the Mass Driver in ONE. DAY. Crazy compared to the sheer amount of grinding I had to do to get it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I played eve for about a month. Once you get past learning to basics you quickly learn that the game is just a spreadsheet simulator where you spend most of your time crunching numbers to maximize your profit. Wasn't really for me.

Lt. Colonel Remo Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Just downloaded today I agree with Mako, the sensitivity seemed to be really....slow. But its definitely worth it, seeing as its free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Anyone here play it on PS3? If so, what are y'all's PSNs so I can add you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeRainbowDash Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 yeah i play on ps3. thats when i first saw it. i was trolling through the store and saw dust 524 free to play, and i remembered the gameinformer article, and recalled that it was a mmofps, andd i was like why the hell not. its really difficult though... at least i find it so. ive been playing as an arbiter.problem with the scope is that they don't zoom in far enough to clearly see someone far away and then when you see them you can't hit them.... still fun though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizarus Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 It's pretty decent. It has problems like random spawn, unequal skill levels turning into stomp matches, hit detection issues, and lag issues sometimes. But it's free, and in beta.

OmegaWave Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 It has problems like random spawn, unequal skill levels turning into stomp matches, hit detection issues, and lag issues sometimes. Those are my only real issues with it. Otherwise, it's quite a good experience given that it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makο Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Uh hasn't been a full month so This game bounces between gut-bustingly frusterating and surprisingly enjoyable. I feel that experience takes too long to get, even with the Passive. How am I supposed to get Logistics A-Series if it costs like 400k experience to get to Logistics III? ...Maybe I looked at the wrong skill... Anyway, they did fix a LOT of things since the last I played, so that's nice. As you could probably tell, I'm running Logistics/Medic. It's mostly all the default stuff you get when you start as a Medic, but I swapped out the SMG for a Shotgun and have Armor Plates (the +60 something health is a LIFESAVER). I'm currently saving out EXP for Logistics Dropsuit III, a Repair Tool that works better against Dropsuits, and shield upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Is there any reason to play this game over say, TF2, Counter Strike, or Halo/Cod? I don't really have time to get into too many online games, but this looks interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Well, over CS and Halo/Cod, it has the advantage of being free to play. However, I don't think it has much over TF2. Sure, the integration with Eve Online is cool, orbital strikes are always fun to watch, and vehicles are present, but it's def. slower, and it takes a little while to get on even ground with those who play a long time just due to having to earn/wait for skills points in order to get all the cool stuff. But, if you like that sort of skill tinkering and don't mind it's beta flaws, it's pretty fun. Note: LAVs do not follow the laws of physics in any way whatsoever. They feel about as grounded as a balloon in a wind tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
