1. Legion should include 3rd person - in General Discussions [original thread]
I'd probably be ok with a third person view as long as it was tied very closely to your avatar and always points directly at you, no matter what angle it's at. This would let you, I think, look at your suit and behind you but not around corners. I...

2. Why is Project Legion not appearing at Fanfest 2014? - in General Discussions [original thread]
Yeah, I know a bit. I've been a professional developer for 10 years now. "It didnt run on any engine" And this is where I can tell you don't know a bit, and I'm not reading the rest of that blob of text until you learn to use paragraphs. An engi...

3. Why is Project Legion not appearing at Fanfest 2014? - in General Discussions [original thread]
Quote: Please tell me why any of this can't be done in dust? Because the PS3 didn't work for them as a platform. Two problems. Firstly the very obvious issue of hardware limitations. Legion runs the same engine as Dust. They've spent so mu...

4. Why is Project Legion not appearing at Fanfest 2014? - in General Discussions [original thread]
What has been announced for Legion so far is open world scavenging. That sounds fun, but it isn't enough for a compelling game. What they need is what Dust was supposed to have, a meaningful outcome for battles which affects a shared world. That m...

5. Can someone explain exactly how the BPO suits are supposed to work? - in General Discussions [original thread]
Put a thales or balacs on a BPO suit in Dust and tell me there's no meaningful loss when you get killed. The frame itself isn't that significant a portion of the cost to begin with. The goal seems to be for a player to always be able to fulfill a ...

6. Game modes as a priority - in General Discussions [original thread]
So here are my thoughts. Instant action needs to be a thing, which we know is going to happen from what they've shown. There's open world, and there's Dust's arena style matches. The thing that was interesting about skirmish 1.0 was how the object...

7. sell PC gaming to me - in General Discussions [original thread]
>See you don't have to buy the newest of the newest That's kind of a key thing when you're building a PC if you don't want to really bling it out. Since you can change individual components of your machine there's a continual arms race between...

11. 10 hour heros, aimbots and fights that matter. - in General Discussions [original thread]
If the game design isn't set up to counter an SSD it gives a huge advantage to the team who is using it. When PC launched we fought many teams who had SSD players, and while we were still lagging our way out of the MCC, a scout with an SSD (which ...

12. Legion and the Future of Logistics Vehicles - in General Discussions [original thread]
A weak AoE heal would be hard to abuse if the range wasn't absurdly long. The way I'm envisioning it AoE heals would have to be much weaker than targeted ones as well. The intent there to be bringing people back to full at the end of a fight, not ...

13. Legion and the Future of Logistics Vehicles - in General Discussions [original thread]
Yeah...AoE ammo resupply built into the vehicles with a short range, and larger range repair AoE as an active module. Targeted repairs as small turrets, with logi hulls receiving bonuses to repair amount and range for the repair modules.

14. Legion and the Future of Logistics Vehicles - in General Discussions [original thread]
I feel like logi vehicle repairs should be an area of effect thing. At least for infantry, if not for everything. Any targeted repairs should be a type of small turret, because flying a derpship while maintaining a lock on something? That's not ha...

15. BPO Dropsuits - A bad idea - in General Discussions [original thread]
Because the player in Eve can exist without a ship, and because ships are part of a deep resource cycle. They have a cost because players make them from their own time. Some guy mines veldspar for a few hours and sells the results of that work for...

16. BPO Dropsuits - A bad idea - in General Discussions [original thread]
The suit will cost something, the modules, equipment and weapons. Tiericide is pretty relevant to the question I was responding to. "Why not always use your best suit?". Because there will be no "best suit". Once you've established that, then all ...

17. BPO Dropsuits - A bad idea - in General Discussions [original thread]
From a long term Eve player perspective, I don't care if my suits are BPOs if the modules cost enough for death to sting. All they have to do is make sure that the modules are valuable enough. "when your dropsuit is a BPO why should you ever use ...

18. 10 hour heros, aimbots and fights that matter. - in General Discussions [original thread]
Some more rough ideas. Monitor the statistics of brand new characters and flag them if their stats are *too good*, allowing an invisible GM to follow them around. If a previously unknown hack is being used and got through the anti-cheating system...

19. Please do not give Legion a Local intel chat tool. - in General Discussions [original thread]
In the open world portion of Dust, seeing merc names in the local system channel could be entirely useless from an intelligence perspective. On a sense of scale it could be the same as knowing that an eve pilot is somewhere in a constellation, it ...

20. 10 hour heros, aimbots and fights that matter. - in General Discussions [original thread]
Dent's point is that people would start a brand new account (free to play, remember?) and use that to do their banworthy actions, leaving their real character untouchable. If possible, punkbuster would be good. I've never encountered any blatant ...
