HMG - Increase spread

AR - Increase spread, recoil/muzzle jump, add sway (all of these more so with standing/moving/running)

Mass Driver - Fine. Maybe give it an arming distance.

Flaylock - Slight buff to splash radius, RoF, and knockback on dopships.

Laser Rifle - Fix the sight, that's it.

Scrambler Rifle - Fix the sight.

Sniper Rifle - Increase scope range/add variable scopes, make the dot visible on light surfaces, buff headshot bonus.

Swarm Launchers - Add variations with better tracking, others with higher speed.

Shotguns - I dunno, are hey still broken where they have no cone of fire?

Forge Gun - Increase projectile size, making vehicle hits easier, but preventing it from hitting players between cracks or barely peeking around corners. Increase dropship knockback.

Grenades - Reduce fuse time.

Scouts - Buff speed, slightly buff armor/shield.

Heavies - Reduce movement/panning speed.

Missile/Blaster Installations - BUFF RANGE AND INCREASE THE AIM HEIGHT.

The mechanics for explosives are currently one of my major hates.

Give explosives some kind of damage fall off so that accuracy is rewarded but not essential and they'll be in a better place. CCP could probably return contact nades and flaylocks from the nerf pit if they did that too.

Tanks need a rethink from the ground up.

All the dropsuits need a redo.

CPP is working on infantry armour vs. shield.

thats what your not getting. I dnt care of if my tank dies. I do care when its life on the battle field is less than its life on the RDV carring it in, when only 1 person used AV.

he didnt even use proto AV either.

I use AV too. forguns.

I never said i wanted an unstoppable milita Tank. But, when you call in a tank you expect to get some use out of it, to push the line forward, abit.

I was forced to call in the tank to help my teamates who were getting slaughtered. then i drive over to them with my turret teamates in there, people start jumping out the way (perfectly fine i would too), but this one guy had swarms and a single AV grenade and destroyed my tank in 2 seconds.


yes AV is designed to destroy vehicles but your not supposed to be a 1 man asenal.
just like ARs are designed to kill infantry but ARs arent supposed to have the fire rate of an HMG and sniper damage per shot.*

If you equate the way AV kills vehicles to the way ARs kill people, if ARs were as effective as AV one guy with an AR could kill a team.


*its a comparison. i knwo ARs dnt do that damage or dps dnt troll

perhaps. i have been on the other end using my forgun.

but, still my cerncen was mainly the amount of time my tank had to operate on the field was very short. i couldnt get any kills and my tank blew up.

I only called it in because the enemy team was spamming ARs and caldari suits so bad, i needed to do something. so, when i called it in and then 1 guy took me i was pissed. because the 15 people didt even need to bother with the tank or evern alter their strategy because this 1 guy had it all covered.

proto Av, ok. Adv ok. Std... needs to be tweaked, and milita needs to be tweaked.


I say tweaked because its nessesarily a nerf just a reaarangement of some of their attributes to keep them effective but not too effective

Think we just need bigger maps and more to do, I'm a deadly shot with anything single fire, scrambler rifle, forge gun, sniper, shotgun, but I feel like it's tough to apply when it seems like the game is trying to simulate waves and waves of enemies when it's just really a small group. I think the real fix this game needs is a slower pace, because it seems like all people care about is "how can I do the most damage in the least amount of time" or "how can I tank the most damage" so eventually you get a bunch of people spraying assault rifles, forging from rooftops, strafing like mad, and bouncing like bunnies.

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying any of these are bad, hell I'm a cheap bastard with the mass driver, it's just that if you have 3 people on a rooftop forging objectives, the only way to win is to get an orbital strike. If you have a few people bombarding everyone with a mass driver, the only way you're going to win is in a distance fight or find a way to get in close with a shotgun, a few people can rush an objective and take it over if they have the right equipment, tanks can be made to be unstoppable while almost any other is just flimsy and there's not enough people with the lenience to grab an AV suit because they're all trying to keep back a couple of duvolle specialists at 1 gate.

Maybe I'm just rambling but no one gun can take down an entire squad unless the difference in SP and isk is severe so none of them are really OP, I think that if there were just more people in a match, more time to play, and more space to maneuver in, the game might be a little less like call of duty. There should be just as many if not more "calm before the storm" moments as "oh s*** what the hell is going on" moments.

Kinda hard to be good at waiting when the enemy is at you're doorstep at every turn in a match, lol hell the matches might be the things making people impatient, its just nonstop action, nonstop brainfrying situational awareness, for the people on the ground doing nothing special, just defending an objective or running in to take it, this game is fuckin stressful. Unless you're red lining how often do you get a chance to stop and catch your breath except when you're back in your prison cell? I mean warbarge apartment. :)

Yeah scrambler is more specialized, which is gonna suck when everyone starts armor tanking in 1.4. I mean I will be too but those extra few shots from the cooldown rate might not do too much. Ugh, mixed feelings about the update lol

Gimme Caldari Commando, a Rail Rifle, a Swarm Launcher, some Lai Dai's and various other Caldari themed good and Ill show you FW bullds like never before. Sadly I don't think Ill even subscribe to the meta or FOTM builds just themed builds with hyper awesome factionalised gear!

if we rebalance all the weapons, and nerf the Ar to where its supposed to be. this game can begin to take shape and grow again.

forget the CoD boys let, Cod have them. let the battlefield noobs have battlefield. people who enjoy playing a game that requires skill and tactics will have DUST. it can recooperate from this low point. but we have to fix the things. we are lossing far to many people.
