  1. Happened to look up some old dust videos for nostalgia when I thought of the youtuber I use to watch. Went to your videos to scroll back through and watch a few when I see that you have a relatively new (3 weeks old) video. Glad to see you back. If you end up playing planetside look me up connery server TR faction names Hirise64. Glad your back and hope to see more of you.

  2. Awesome. Agreed, every time I say there still is no game like Dust 514 I'm told I rant like a bitter Dust vet. Though It may be but both are true thanks for saying that and remembering the good old days as well as I am still posting Dust 514 footage myself to this day.

  3. You know the only thing I wish the devs learned was? Not to make large swiping changes on a whim of the player base. Like the nerf to vehicle damage to infantry collision. It went from 3,073 at the maximum possible speed to only 14 when even the weakest infantry would have over 150 hp.

  4. Y’know, with PS3 Emulation getting better and better as the days pass by, I reckon that soon enough we'll have this game cracked and available to be played on PC! While I am no coding connoisseur, I know that there is likely someone out there working on bringing this game back to life. And when this game does indeed come back I'll gladly come back to play it!

  5. If the combat model is what attracted one to Dust, EDO is THE option. All others are more toward the OverWatch twitch fps model. Except mech games obv. Even Angel's Fall First is the much faster TTK and higher APM model despite being effectively 90% Dust otherwise. Imo SC just flat out isn't ready yet. Not even as an EA compromise.

  6. There is no other game like Dust514. The sense of loss was real, it made you pay attention because the best fitting was expensive and if you lost it it was gone or salvage. It was before it's time then and now it's concept is still ahead of every FPS out. I honestly think Dust514 can come out right now with the UE5 next gen makeover just visually for starters, keep all they had stay on their roadmap and it would dominate. It was for me the first hardcore FPS I've ever played. Even the in game chat channels were ahead of the game. I honestly think the capsuleers lack of support and CCP lack of incentives but more so the fuckin bougie ass EVE Corporations if they didn't shit on Dust514 every chance they got we would still be playing and I'd probably be at 1bil SP right now πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ but for real tho. Battle Royale is cool and all and a reboot will need it if CCP decides to chase the trend, but they're FPS fans that hate Battle Royale. but let me tell you running as a minmitar logi on the back of a caldari heavy and orbital pops up 40 clones down is a joy you had to experience to understand. I just want to know what FPS you can play where you can be top five but you have 3kills. K/D mattered but it didn't at the same time if that makes sense. I miss this spreadsheet shooter. I miss that it was hardcore AF and I could skill into whatever play style I wanted as long as I could fit it to my suit. 3 high 3 low with only a beach AR, I was a monster with a Breach ARπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ . I miss when Pyrex come out with his proto tank go ham and we'd try to pop his shit with a free suit, because we skilled elsewhere, knowing it's gonna take more than 3volleys to kill before he pop them modules and haul ass πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I miss this fuckin game man. Even if they went mobile and linked it with EVE echoes I'd be fine with that. Tencent missing out

  7. I just miss this game, I was able to get the game to partially launch on PC and the intro cinematic nearly brought me to tears as it was my first competitive FPS. I just miss the game and am waiting for the new Eve Onling FPS or community servers to be available for Dust on PC.

  9. Black Listed Pirates. To death and beyond. Played it the moment it came out and it was my first introduction to shooters and mass scale Combined Arms games. It made look into games later like Planetside 2, Arma, Squad on and on.

    Now im looking at games like Anvil Empires and Arma. Too bad it wasnt making money. I was playing it everyday for atleast pike 2 hours.

  10. I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High — 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the ungodly wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the ungodly or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." 2 Esdras 2:31
