Just to clarify, I did not vote for this thread to get a 'strafing shooter' back. I voted for it to get a shooter that isn't flat, in the sense that there are a lot of diverse, reasonably balanced options and all of them are viable. This is the opposite of where it's at right now. |

CCP is monitoring the TTK apparently. Collecting statistics. CPM has brought this issue up with CCP. Lets just wait and see what happens.
Meanwhile, I do not play this game.

Statistic-munching works brilliantly for Eve, a game which is basically one large constantly running equation with a pretty GUI.
Unfortunately, Dust does have an actual game running on top of those numbers, and you cannot fully comprehend the frustration of 95% of your deaths being to mouth breathing AR tanks until you've lost those clones up close and personal. |

I am pretty sure Strafing was invented when we got Doom on our PC's, you know when we were still using DOS 6.2, Norton Commanders and the Mouse hadnt been introduced to the shooter genre....oh wait you werent born back then ...
I know i was strafing my *ss off when the Cyber demon was shooting rockets my way ....loads of ...rockets...or in Deathmatch over Coaxial cable networked games, someone unloaded the Plasma gun in your general direction.

Gotta love them coaxial networks.
My childhood friend had brothers who at the time were studying to become engineers. We would join them and play HeXeN deathmatch against each other for hours... awesome times.
LOL @ strafing being first done in HALO and COD. Some people just need to learn gaming history.
The high HP strafing shooter we had previously, seemed very much like EVE (where you orbit your targets instead of strafe them). It was one thing that made this game unique if you compare it to other games. Also the skill tree and soon to be economy of course. But the high HP strafing gameplay really was something fresh for me.

As long as the change is done with extreme caution and done carefully.
Longer TTK inevitably means that there is going to be more time to open/close range, which is important in the sense that range ultimately governs a fight. There's also a number of imbalances at the moment (one example being that Gallente Assault suits have a 25% bonus to shield recharge rate) that need to be taken into account as increased TTK makes these small things more noticeable. It goes from sandpaper being mildly annoying to razor wire shredding, when applied to the skin, as an example.
It's true that the line between play styles gets a little blurred. I for one don't think that an ASCR should be able to outright kill me as fast an AR when I'm an armor tanker but it should still possess the potential to do so if I'm not careful. It's VERY IMPORTANT to take these balancing factors into account when considering how to increase TTK as simply making blanket changes like increasing HP values or reducing weapon damage values only opens up the mechanical issues to being overarching problems.
This could be as simple as changing resistance values so that shield based weaponry has more/less an effective depending on what it's engaging (shield/armor) but I don't like suggesting direct changes as there's a lot of options that need to be explored. I don't feel this is just an issue of weapons doing too much damage, having too much range or suits having too little EHP - there's a lot of things to consider.
In essence, my only concern is that this is done carefully and with a surgeon's precision rather than like a pipe wrench lobotomy. Roles should have immediately noticeable impact and there should be conscious thought and decision making on combat rather than the current "my weapon does damage so I can kill anything" mindset.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately and this is the conclusion I've come to.
If TTK is to stay this fast, all movement speeds need to be drastically reduced. If the fast movement speeds are what is desired, then TTK needs to be much slower.
Either way will improve the pacing of the game.

If you slow down movement speed and increase TTK than nothing really changes as you can stay on target for longer.

I think you misread me or I wasn't as clear as I thought I was. If TTK stays as it is currently, movement speeds should be halved (if not more). If fast movement speeds are what is desired, TTK should be increased greatly (either by greatly increasing EHP for all suits or greatly reducing DPS potential for all weapons).

If the movement speed is halved than players would be moving more slowly than Heavies. Can you imagine a Scout moving as fast as a Logistics? How easy that would be to kill? TTK would be even worse than it is.

Perhaps increasing map distances and scaling back movement speeds would achieve the effect that I am thinking would improve pacing.

Except loads of people did ask for it. And it was proven by players themselves that AA is weaker in dust than any of big shooters out on the market at the moment. So ur statement is horrificly out of date to be fashionable.
Thanks for bump though. Iv given up though waiting for ps4 and killzone now :-)

So newbs have a chance. so heavys can own face So scouts can stab them in back So assults can chase them down So logistics can pick up the assult as he got blasted by a tank running after a tank.
Lets bring this back because as of 1.6 this will no longer happen it will just be med suits with AR spraying madly killing 4 people by chance You know.... this may be a little off topic, but I feel it needs to be said.
The majority of the Imperfects spent the majority of closed beta trying to troll Dust into submission, trying to shame it into a decent game rather than being constructive and avoiding conflict for the good of the conversation. Now look at you guys. There are only a few of you left in that corp, but the few left are the few who actually have the patience for conversation without your ego trying to strangle every person who disagrees with you into submission with death threats and troll rage rants. It's kinda peaceful without the Zitro's and the rest going out of their way to steamroll ideas into the game. Sure, people still try to do it, but I've yet to see anyone do it as effectively as they did.
You know.... I kinda miss those days.... damn nostalgia..... *sniffle*
Anyway.... I had a point here.... hold on.... Oh yeah. I wanted to say that if you guys ever decide to rebuild, you would have an entirely new image for yourselves now since several of you guys have actually been pretty active and positive here in the forums for a long while.
So congrats for giving yourselves a new self-image, at least to the noobs lol. And of course:

I wouldn't be surprised to find that their rep will forever be tarnished by their Closed Beta behavior (at least in the eyes of some).
