Revision of DUST 514 from Mon, 23/04/2012 - 19:12

We be currently standin' on th' precipice o' new gamin' era, shiver me timbers I brin' t' ye, Dust 514.

A change in th' tide o' war is comin', Dance the Hempen Jig Nay longer will they rule th' skies above us with th' unabated reckonin' o' their massive corporations. Let us put feet t' th' earth an' take them down from th' inside. Ban' together me brother mercenary an' join me in a battle fer th' galaxy. From down here they can not, an' will not ignore us. For as much as they may hit us from above, so will they feel th' stin' from our battle cries into th' skies.

One o' th' largest MMOs o' all time is comin' t' th' PS3. Where EVE allowed ye t' control large areas o' th' universe, collectin' together with other companies an' formin' large monolithic corporation… now its time fer th' consoles t' do th' same an' wage war. How thin's will swin' is totally up t' th' players. Bein' a free FPSMMO, anyone with PS3 can join th' battle at any time. Join a collection o' other scallywags an' try t' swin' balance o' power, or simple crush scallywags that stan' in yer way. Maybe, just maybe we can unit with each other an' brin' both mercs an' corps together t' make an unstoppable force. This notion has been thrown aroun' fer a long time, but no nay ne'er has it come t' FPS. Just imagine th' next time ye play Metro fer th' 100th time that it would actually mean some thin', and a bottle of rum! Once ye take th' area an' move further an' further along, Team IPX could own part o' th' USA or France or which e'er country we where currently fightin' in, shiver me timbers This me maties, could be th' start o' some thin' much larger if it does come together. I hope it means big thin's fer us all, so it might be an notion t' at least watch th' out come o' this up an' comin' title, Dance the Hempen Jig Now at th' moment they be in limited beta testin', but it does seem as though th' release is not t' far off. Shiver me timbers! Now, down t' a little more game facts (or at least what I can find at th' moment).

So, how big o' a game be we talkin' here… ok well here is a picture o' one o' th' planets ye will be fightin' on, ye pick which location ye wish t' fight on below.

Taken that all in? Shiver me timbers! Aye its a pretty large selection. Now, remember this is happenin' across a universe… so before ye pick a location, how about we pick a planet.

Now from actually bein' an EVE on the plank player, that second shot is just a drop in th' ocean o' its total scale. So now that we have th' epic proportion out o' th' way, what is in store those o' us on th' ground.

There will be a large selection o' custom load outs, from gear t' guns. Just what that will be is limited t' me at th' moment. There will also be vehicles, with a nice little range an' different points o' balance dependin' on what ye need, me Jolly Roger Now most o' th' them will look very similar on th' outside, but like EVE they will be up fer customization t' what e'er ye want t' fit them with. Now remember, when all is said an' done yer on this planet fer a reason. And swab the deck, I'll warrant ye! Not just t' conquer it, but t' hurt those in th' sky. There be large guns placed on th' planet an' its yer job t' capture these an' shoot down those in th' skies… but be warned, while th' war is ragin' on th' planet, so will it be happenin' in th' skies. They too also have th' ability t' target th' ground an' smash away at th' little ants on th' surface. All up this should make fer outstandin' e'er changin' atmosphere with PS3 an' PC battlin' in real time in th' same match, avast. With a real end goal t' yer actions, I think it will draw in a crowd that will stay an' fight fer a long time t' come. Shiver me timbers, ya bilge rat! Bringin' together two different platforms has always seemed like a challenge, but it seems this development team have hit it right on target. Though bein' an FPS on th' PS3, I might give it a shot… Im not goin' t' hang aroun' fer long. Lets hope that in th' future, this project will brin' other developers into th' fold o' a new era o' gamin'.

PS: I wanted t' keep goin' with th' reviews. So while thin's be bein' sorted out in regards t' what we be doin' with this section, Im just goin' t' keep postin' them as they be :).
