I have 4 very important questions about dust:

How long does it take to download?
however long 7.5gb takes (that's the D/L and patching, BTW)
Can you customize the colour of your armor?
Not as you think; there are different colored armors available, but you have to buy them separately
About how many guns are in the game, and are they all available to starters?
there's a lot of guns; but most of it is tiered (like I explained a few posts back). There are, however, 11 different "classes" of guns across three "types" (heavy, light, sidearm). All require their own skill training to use, except for militia varients. 
Is there a ranking system?
Not really ATM; what is there isn't what you think. Its a basic leaderboard

Another question: Is the game balanced yet?

I don't know about balance, but I haven't gotten an XMB kick yet!

Re: Starhawk or Dust?

Define "balance".

IMO, there hasn't been a shooter released in the past several years that's truly "balanced"...

Re: Starhawk or Dust?

The maps seem..... quite empty even with 32 players.
Framerate issues aside, I had fun for the 30 minutes I could play.

Re: Starhawk or Dust?

next time you play hold down L2 in the spawn screen... thats your map in some modes, I beleive instant battles will be like what we have now though.

 

what are the diffrent servers names for?

 

instant battles: for thoose who just want to play, when EVE players want something seized but not by hiring a specific corp  instant battles will be that server list.

 

mercaneary: you`ve been hired for a battle and this is how you connect to it.

 

corporation: clan vs clan.

 

thats from what I know from what I`ve been told, I was expecting something on the lines of that BUT a little diffrent.
