The biggest mistake I ever made in this game was not taking my 13 million SP and investing it in:
Gallant Medium Brick
ARs
Core Locus Grenades
There is absolutely ZERO other method to play this game other than that if you want to be successful.
This game has endless variations, yet only ONE is worth doing. Good job CCP, you converted another one to Gallente and ARs... you might as well hold off all that new sh*t you planning putting in the game come 1.7... |

lol, people talking about how they have success not using that setup...
8/2 is not what I consider a good game...
I play at the highest level, and expect the outcome to be at the highest level. |

Shotty Go Bang claimed the shotguns worked. So I gave it another go...
Basically, he was wrong.

Caldari assaults with 2x damage mods and 900 ehp 450 each shield and armor, that's amazing.
Gallente scouts with 700 armor having strafe battles vs assaults....that's amazing.
Heavies on the end of my newly specced rep tool....waaaaaay OP.
This game is actually getting more fun now.
Dust514 is headed in the right direction.

LOL a shallow response to an otherwise thoughtful response. *yawn*
No, its a simplistic response, to a simplistic observation. DUST has completely changed and is headed into the Twitch Shooter category... there are plenty of Twitch Shooters already out there, why does DUST feel the need to completely re-work their game?
Oh yeah, I forgot... DUST is losing money by the fistful... never mind. You're right, DUST is headed in the right direction. The direction of trying to make money. F*ck the playerbase, and f*ck trying to stand out; just make money, right?
But still spin their CCP Propaganda (EVE Players know what that is) and string people along with unkept resolutions.
Don't forget to buy your AURUM |

Odd, 2 out of 3 games i play i go somewhere in the 30-40+ Kills with an Amarr Assault suit, a SCR and no grenades...you must not be that good as you say you are in my other thread. I was just thinking this. I can top the killboards solo with a dragonfly scout and smg's....Although I profess overly antagonistic attitudes often prompt me to assume a player is likely a poor performer...but that's just me.
Yup, typical FPS player logic:
If I do good, then I'm good you're bad.
If I do bad, its everyone's fault but my own. |

Oh wait...I didn't say I was good...or that you were bad... *yawn* Can we curtail the caustic comments? As much as I appreciate players peppering pride into their pedantic antics I'd prefer it if we could be civil. Or you can continue eisegesis into my comments. 
LOL, do you know what's really hilarious actually. I went back and edited my post, specifically the part you quoted from.
Meaning, that you quoted my post, left it open and then went to look for $5 words on the internet to make yourself sound smarter, then post 5 minutes later...
You're dismissed. |

Yup, typical FPS player logic: If I do good, then I'm good you're bad. The game wasn't working in my favor.
If I do bad, its everything/everyone's fault but my own. i cant say for you, but i can say that i have never come across a FPS game that ive been bad at since like 20 years ago and ive played pretty much all of them, except a gap of like 7 years where i had Carpal Tunnel in an advanced state and then that first year getting at it again with damaged nerves, has been a hell for me. But after that and with obvious skill decline, i still have no issues be it PS2 or Dust or APB R, BF4 or Nether to play an FPS and all those games are worlds appart in there mechanics...
Part of me wants to not do this, but I hear "your bad, kid" so much on these forums, sohere we go:
Former MLG Halo player.
Ranked 7 world in HALO 2
Ranked 1 For CoD: Blops(FFA and TDM)
Ranked top 30 CoD: MW2
Ranked top 50 Counterstrike 3x
Ranked 1 DOOM 95 I'm most proud of that one.
2 successful YouTube channels centering around FPS (one is more about commentary I'll admit)
And I dabbled in Quake Arena
I'm not bad at this game by any stretch. I'm a lifelong FPS player. I'll admit, as I'm older, my reaction times aren't what they used to be. But the sh*t I've witnessed in this game, every single match doesn't make sense.
Maybe it's my PS3, maybe its my connection to Port 80. Maybe its me... over my career in FPS, I've seen so match crap that I learned to become humble really quick.
But, when I fire a volley of 1500 damage into another player -and he is still able to run off- I start to wonder.
When I walked up to someone with a shotgun, and not even get a hitmarker, but watch my shot tear into him, and I get turned on, I start to wonder.
When I'm 6m away from a guy with 1400 HP in a Heavy, and I fire into him, but his Duvolle kills me faster, I start to wonder.
When I'm 5m meters behind a wall, and I watch tracers fly off my screen but still take damage, I start to wonder.
When I'm shooting at someone and my bullets don't do anything then as I die, an invisible wall appears, i start to wonder.
When I start to take damage before the opponent is even facing me and their gun is firing, I start to wonder
When my Militia AR can drop a Caldari Logi from 90m out, I start to wonder
I'm not naive, I know when the game isn't working. I know when lag is in or out of my favor. I know when software isn't running correctly. |

Coleman Gray wrote:Only reason Gallente medium frame suits are so good is because of the following reasons.
1. Nearly EVERYONE is running the AR since it's OP, Being a hybrid weapon it does 110% against shields and only 90% against armor. So when a Caldari faces off against a Gallente player and they both use an AR? The gallente is at an Automatic advantage.
2. Majority of infrantry weapons are anti-shield, Wait for for the new rifles. Amarr and Gallente players will be crying about the superior tech of the Minmatar Combat rifle, Remember..trust in rust :P
I think you have it reversed? Isn't the AR anti-armor, and SCR anti-shield?
I don't think the new weapons will matter. It comes down to having Armor plates that have more HP than shield (even the Reactive and Ferroscale), so your HP goes up. Factor in the lag, and the Gallente comes out on top every time. You need a Prototype Caldari, Minmatar, or Amarr to match the Gallente's capability at even the lowest lever.
I always knew Gallente Bricks were good. I would picture it in my head, and think "man, why don't more people use that setup, to have 1000HP is insane. Gallente is were it's at." But as usual, DUST players were slow to catch on. And by the time they did, that's when 1.6 came out, and bamm, you have the best lag beating system in the game, and the best system to sh*t on anyone who has any latency against you what'-so-ever. |

Do you know how many people retry the game every patch and go right back to ot playing it for a month? I came back because of the Shotgun; since its not actually fixed just broken in favor of the user now, I'll be on my way soon enough, until 1.7 roles around |

I play as scout, Laser weaponry specialist, AV specialist and Commando.
I do pretty well considering the amoung of times im being proto-squad stomped most of the time..but my clanmantes feel very UP. Most of them are already going Gal Logi and Cal logi.... even if i try to convince them with skill is possible to hold your own vs the Metagamers... HARD but doable...
They insist,and perhaps they are right, that a Sidearm is worth all the goodies that come with these loadouts..
I mean i know if i played for a good corp with good squads all of the time ,my stats would be pretty impressive... >..>But using a Scrambler Rifle vs 2+ AR users with Core nades is , even for the most skilled of players, a pretty hard thing to win....(Considering i dont have proto assault nor logi too..)
Nailed it. I hate having to play my butt off EVERY match, it gets old. I will always want my SCR or shotgun but the fun has leaked out. I don't want hard mode every flippin match.

I ran out of SP, how's your AFK-ing coming along? I hit my cap faster, made more, and earned more ISK.
Maybe next time, you'll be wiser...
Let me know when you get that Prototype Suit so we can AFK next to one another in it... Why do even earn SP in a game you have intentions of actually playing? |

If he wanted to cap faster he'd ask for a homie to set him up a pc and then get 60k wp's from killing and re-killing an alt with a guy reviving. Dengru doesn't need isk. EoN. made 4 bill a day for close to 2 months and passed much of it out to their members. When you're half as talented as what you claim to be, you can get paid millions of isk to ring on a pc team and make more than you make in 6 hours on playing in 1 match.
Okay, you just got me to bust out laughing, lol. You're 12, aren't you? So much of what you say makes zero sense. You're just kid... go away kiddo, the adults are trying to have a conversation.

My alt has a KDR of 5 something, what's your point? KD is one stat, and it doesn't mean anything unless you are a permanent Heavy who only plays Ambush.
If i want to pad my KD, I'll exploit the options to do so. If i want to farm as much WP as I can, I'll exploit the options to do so. If I want to jump my HAVs off a cliff because I'm bored, I will. If I want cook grenades and walk up to the enemy, I will. KD, taken out of context, means nothing. Last I checked I was paid to win, not protect my KD because its the only stat in the game...
KD hasn't meant anything since Quake Arena and Unreal Tournament. |

If your implying I pad my k/d you are very wrong, have you tired ut at all in the past few years, modded to fk. Not the same game at all, servers are crazy modded.
Modded servers are what chased me onto console in the first place, lol. Even though some console games have mods.
I'm not saying you KD pad, but its all about context.
If I said I had a 2.00 KD, I would be above 95% of the playerbase. But if i then told you I was strictly a Sniper... that 2.00 would be laughable. Now, if i said i was strictly a Shotgun Scout, I'd be considered one of the top players in the game.
What does KD mean to a Logi? I see Logis top leaderboards every game with negative KDs, sometimes with 0 kills even.
The main reason my KD is low is simply because my DUST career has been 80% shotgun, even before I knew anything about the game. Had I joined a Corp early on, I would be sitting higher, but honestly KD doesn't mean anything to me. I try to keep dying to a minimum, but I don't check my KD and worry about it. In fact,
I learn my KD from these forums when people look it up to post it. But a .9 increase in 3-4 days of playing should mean something, right? |

Every month I get a guy on the Forums that hangs out on my threads and questions my skill, or viewpoints... they contribute nothing to the discussion, but just try to instigate something because they need to occupy their free time...
Then, as fate has it they start popping up in games against me... then I never hear from them again, and only see them in the top right corner So and So has left the battle... or they are buried somewhere in their losing team's scoreboard ... then they try to Protostomp me with their buddies because they remember my 4 digit name so easily... but I could care less. At least they eventually go away
