I think it's bollocks (Both it's existence and calling it an MMO), and I hope it dies and has to be disconnected from EVE, but that's why.

yea thats a load of wank crap, you could link fucking MW3 to a facebook game and go "look at the integration, a TRULY MASSIVE MMO! "

I actually do see where they went with this.

Because two MMOs on the same platform that work with each other is just an unnecessary divide on the audience.

Like, have the PC users play EVE and have the PS3 players play Dust. No need to have them mixed up.

I also bet Sony wouldn't have pulled the game out of limbo to release two MMOFPS's on PC. Need to compete with yourself, you know?

P.S. don't pay too much attention to my usage of the term MMO.

16 v 16? meh who cares then. Just another round based game. We have enough CoD/BF/Halo/etc games out there with mindless run and gun instant death round based boring repetative shooters. I'll pass.

Seriously thats not an MMO, its not massive, 32 players is not massive, its just an MO.

Even for 32 players, having things like custom vehicles is still pretty groundbreaking for a console shooter.

Even if it's 16v16, it still looks like a lot of fun.

Guys, CCP is the company, CCCP is the collapsed Soviet Union

Yep its an mmo.

Your playing for keeps, I won't be playing DUST 514 but it's looking sharp.

Good work CCP.

Hmmm. D514 IS an MMO. I honestly think that of all these LMMAOFPSes we have (aka "lobby games") this one has the most potential. People playing it are going to be looking for some mercenary feeling in it, rather than scale.

And I don't even have PS3.

Soothsayer · 2012-01-20, 04:21 PM

The last I heard (back in the summer) they were aiming to have 32 v 32 fights, not 16 v 16. And that was their release commitment with the idea being that they would scale that number up if possible.

From wikipedia it says 32v32. I noticed what I linked to said the size of a War Room is 32. So that's per side. Wikipedia's Source from October 2009.

Huge difference than what I originally thought.

Soothsayer · 2012-01-20, 10:42 PM

I just got an EVE Online newsletter and they are saying that they will have their first Dust tournament and it's ready to go for 24 v 24. So they must have that capability at the present moment.

I bought a PS3 so that, among other things, I could beta test this game. So I'm pretty excited about it.

ARosaria · 2012-01-21, 06:43 AM

32vs32 is not much.... already been done ten years ago. I want huge battles 100 vs 100 or better yet 1000 vs 1000 then I don't have to aim anymore, just shoot and score head shot after head shot without aiming.

Anyway not impressed by the 32vs32 and certainly not with it being a PS3 exclusive.
