Vehicles in 1.5 and beyond!
CCP Wolfman talks to us a bit about the overview of what is to come for vehicles in DUST 514 1.5 and beyond!
Quote:As promised the other day here is an overview on the changes to vehicle gameplay weGÇÖre currently working on for 1.5 and beyond. What we didnGÇÖt want to do was take every element, hurriedly try to rebalance them all in 4 weeks, and then stuff them back in. So, this will be a staged process, one that we will continue to work on over the releases following 1.5. This will allow us to see how things play out in the game, get community feedback and incorporate that information in to the ongoing work. Ok, here goesGǪ
THE GOAL
Make vehicles fun.
CCP here is your vid of the melee cheat being used in PC and Tournament batts
CCP Wolfman explains how we plan to handle this, as it's not as easy as it seems!
Quote:So fixing this turns out to be trickier that expected, at least in the sense of delivering a fix to the live build. It's more than just tweaking a number here and there. We are looking at some other options so I'll let you know what comes of it.

Spotlight: DUST Fitting Tool // Discuss this Spotlight
There are times when you get a great idea for a fitting, but simply don't have the ability or time to get into game. Or maybe you want to try out a bunch of different fitting variations and quickly compare them to see how they stack up, stats-wise. Or you just want to theorycraft some fits without logging in. That's where the DUST 514 Fitting Tool comes from. Created by hydraSlav, it is a straightforward and powerful tool that lets you optimize your merc to be the perfect killing (or remote repairing) machine.

Stranded - Part
Balac woke with a scream boiling in his lungs and the world on fire. The heat of it bit into his skin, raw and feral, and the sudden, molten pain turned his vision white. The smell of burning flesh choked the air inside the dropship cabin. Balac had been in the field since the beginning. He had, as Krin was fond of saying, GÇ£seen some ****.GÇ¥ Images of KrinGÇÖs smiling face being torn apart by a plasma round.
