I managed 8/9 in a match with the basic gear, sticking together is so important, and ducking between cover.
Also Managed to win a couple of games just because our team would move as one big group across the field.
Also came up against a guy who went 41/0 showing how important team work is, he was in a tank and would have team-mates repair him. I went AA to bring him down but no matter how much I tried I really needed someone else to go AA with me.
I managed to earn 190K isk in one match, and was getting 100k plus in the matches I played I have 1.2mil now, can't bring self to spend though.


Edit:
We forgot an important thing every day servers go down at 22AEST for maintenance they give you good warning though.

Ahh, good point - and they're some nice hauls Spectre .  Will try and get a bit more in during the week, if I've got the zip after work - if not, will be up for some more next weekend.  It's an FPS, so it's close enough to BF3 to qualify as practice, right? .

If it is practice at dying than yes.

In BF3, dying is what I do best

I'm a bit of an Eve player so I'm interested if anyone has been playing Dust? It'd be good to get a squad going sometime.

I've been playing it a bit and it is so much better if you have a squad which sticks together. Not even if you know what your doing.

[Saintsy]

Id redownload it, but that whole corrupted data crap turned me off it. Was a good change of pace for a shooter ill give it that

[SmokeyPSD]

Fair enough Saintsy, hadn't heard that was happening. It's pretty great now. New updates are coming all the time with more and more integration with Eve.

Axe and I had a match around a month after the open beta started we posted some of our thoughts over here.

I had a couple more matches here and there but haven't really played it since, though I did have 1 match after the recent big update. I do agree having a group makes a massive difference against a team of lone rangers.

[Axe99]

Aye, I thought it was solid, but have slowed down a bit since, so not playing a whole lot of online shooters at the moment.  Deffo recommend getting a squad together, plenty of potential for tactical team play .

Nice one Spec .  I wonder if they'll try and bring this to PS4 (the game, not the deal, although both would be good :F), would widen their userbase if they could handle cross-platform play.

[GraphicX]

is anyone still playing this ?  i didn't realise it was a ps3 title lol.

[GraphicX]

any one keen to give this a go with me after i finish dragons age (probably a good 2 weeks off) ?

[spectre51]

I still have it downloaded after I went to check out how much passive SP I had gotten since I last played it.
So I can jump on just say when.

[GraphicX]

reckon i'll make it my next game, i've just cleared out another area in dragons age so hopefully not too much longer.

[spectre51]

If you can I would recommend downloading it and creating a character as soon as possible since you get passive skill points for 1 of your characters.

[GraphicX]

k, i'll set it to download via the sony store now.

[spectre51]

My solider is of the Gallente faction.
I'll have to get on and have a look at everything again.

Axe you wouldn't happen to remember how we joined up would you? All I can remember is it took us a while to figure out.
