Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 18	Posted - 2013.12.06 14:38:00 - [1] - Quote Welcome to post-Chromosome. Went from a big boy shooter to the same non competitive garbage like CoD and BF. CCP pretty much sold out to attract the 11 year olds.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 18	Posted - 2013.12.06 14:46:00 - [2] - Quote Without aim assist, there is an actual separation of player skill. If you're good, you're good. If you're bad, you're bad. Aim assist, as in every other console FPS, is there to keep and hold bad players, and the young players. More $$. Devs could give two $hits about how fluid their game plays.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 20	Posted - 2013.12.06 15:26:00 - [3] - Quote The irony lies in the fact that between Chromosome and now, the player count has gone down. As per the previous post about "gun game"......that is the only true CORE aspect of a First....Person....Shooter. If you can't get that right, the rest is moot. Hence, what Dust is in its current state. Poo. http://eve-offline.net/?server=dust
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 20	Posted - 2013.12.06 15:37:00 - [4] - Quote It's not an "MMO" yet. That would require a meaningful connection to Eve, which it is not even remotely close to right now. That won't happen as long as Dust continues to morph itself into a typical console shooter that, as previously stated, caters to kids and casuals. Eve's playerbase is a hardcore playerbase, with the exception of a few high-sec carebears who won't even venture into border null-sec for fear of getting ganked. If Dust were to ever have a real impact in Eve, said Eve playerbase would burn Iceland to the ground the moment they found out that any part of system sov was being determined by a 6th grader. The underlying point of this rant is this: Remove aim assist = removing "Johnny"
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 24	Posted - 2013.12.06 15:52:00 - [5] - Quote The Shanghai office has to be a pretty crappy place to work right now. Aim assist is the one major gameplay feature that got overhauled from the ground up after Chromosome, player count takes keeps trailing off like the plane ran out of fuel, and the one giant, pink elephant in the room that no one wants to bring up at meetings.......awwwwwkwaaaaaard
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 24	Posted - 2013.12.06 16:07:00 - [6] - Quote Jammeh McJam wrote: If aim assist was off then caldari and minmatar would stop with the dual tanking because strafing would work and speed would be useful The fact that "dual tanking" is encouraged in Dust should make even a novice Eve player facepalm. So much for "same universe".
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 24	Posted - 2013.12.06 16:28:00 - [7] - Quote .....nevermind.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 24	Posted - 2013.12.06 16:44:00 - [8] - Quote I'm pretty sure CCP has attached a "value" on whether or not to pull the plug on Dust should player count keep dropping as it has in the last 9 months.

Spew spew spew http://eve-offline.net/?server=dust (bottom right graph for you "special" types)
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 32	Posted - 2013.12.06 17:49:00 - [10] - Quote Remove mouse and keyboard, remove all aim assist, increase ds3 turnspeeds = the only truly competitive shooter in console market. That was simple.

Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 32	Posted - 2013.12.06 17:51:00 - [11] - Quote KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf wrote: Get over it already AA-whiners. Dust is a console shooter, console shooters have aim assist. The AA in Dust is very subtle compared to that on most mainstream shooters despite having controllers competing with M&KB. Perhaps you should reference page 1 with the playercount looking like the 1929 market crash. Oh, fine, here: http://eve-offline.net/?server=dust
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 33	Posted - 2013.12.06 18:07:00 - [12] - Quote Peak player base of 3500 people, and you're worried about driving it lower. You need help.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 33	Posted - 2013.12.06 18:37:00 - [13] - Quote If AA was completely gone, you wouldn't die in two seconds because, alas, every single shot wouldn't land.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 33	Posted - 2013.12.06 18:47:00 - [14] - Quote Aim assist, either directly or indirectly, is rooted in many gameplay shortcomings that most people automatically assume can be fixed with another "patch" style bandaid, which of course only creates new monsters.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 33	Posted - 2013.12.06 19:02:00 - [15] - Quote Iron Wolf being a homer isn't the point, but yes.....he is, lol.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 34	Posted - 2013.12.06 19:09:00 - [16] - Quote I can't think of one problem completely removing aim assist would create. This is, of course, operating under the assumption that mouse and keyboard is removed and ds3 turn speeds are given the option in sensitivity to vastly increase.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 34	Posted - 2013.12.06 19:21:00 - [17] - Quote What I am saying will save the integrity and lifespan of Dust is a polar opposite of a twitch shooter.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 34	Posted - 2013.12.06 19:34:00 - [18] - Quote It's important to note, that before KAGEHOSHI took his ball and went home, he mentioned that there were an entire host of other issues that could possibly be tied to a declining playerbase and the current build's woes. I'm merely saying that aim assist by itself, because it is a CORE mechanic of a FPS, has rendered the game incompatible with respect to merging with eve someday. Whiiiiiiiiiiiiiich......was the whole point of Dust 514 in the first place. You simply cannot have kids and casuals dictating even the smallest of nullsec sov. It is going to require players with the same engagement level as eve. Dust is catering to a crowd that will never offer that.
Rahl Draak Fraternity of St. Venefice Amarr Empire 34	Posted - 2013.12.06 19:52:00 - [19] - Quote Well said.
