hey Dust514 forum-community, i am Rocko and i am in this game since the first day they started to sell the closed-beta acces-keys to PS-Plus members here in europe, i must admit that i skipped the most of the beta due to the near-non-existent hit-detection it had at it's beginning and were only snooping in every now and then, seeing what has changed and how lovely my Char collects passive SP since ever.
it was then around the fanfest prior to the Uprising-Build that i really started to dedicate myself to this game and by now i have amassed more than 28 mil. SP and spent the absurd amount of about 500 euro in this game - but yet i have never posted in this forum before because of the simple reason that i don't own a PC, nor do i currently posses a proper Smartphone/Tablet-PC (the latter surely because of me being too much a maniac that "stuffs all his money into his Playstation"...)
- so i always found it really bad from CCP that they kinda discriminated one of their most dedicated/ crazed customers with not letting me log-in on their official websites for this Playstation-Exclusive game of Dust514 via the PS3's "Kiddie-Browser" like even most proper Multi-Platform-Titels let you do nowadays - but now i discovered that they finally enabled us to do so (probably part of enabling not just you that were posting in this forum since ever but the whole Dust514 community to proper elect a CPM i guess) - that's right, i am writing this from my PS3 right now.
so here is a BIG THANKS from me to the CCP-Team that is managing the technical stuff for this website for finally delivering this for me so important step on Dust514's way of becoming a proper "how-many-'A's'-ever production.
now to the two thoughts about the current in-game content that are most important to me and which i always wanted to be able to share with you !!WARNING: ENORMOUS WALL OF TEXT INCOMING!! if you don't have neither the time nor the patience to read a single post that long - so what? just skip!
1.: AV and Turret balance - about this one i have thought since very long, as my primary role in this game is since about seven months ago being the top vehicle-specialist of the top-50 corp of the Ultramarine Corp (what in my case means in the 1.7-build to have invested totally elitist-***hole amounts of SP and practice into all 4/ 3,5 of armor-vehicle types, DS, ADS, Tank and LAV) - i came to the conclusion that it is just impossible to proper balance out any type of weaponry that is meant to be able to critical damage a tank without enable it to own dropships to sheer redicolous amounts as long as those forms of weaponry are meant to have more than (in vehicle-usage-terminology) short-range usage-capabilities as well
(prior to 1.7 it were mainly the Forgeguns that just seemed to be everywhere everytime - currently it is most of all the complete ownage of the sky's by large Railguns - but the principe is always the same: long-range guns that posses the power to almost insta-blow-up any dropship - and even if you manage to survive an attack by them with piloting-skills and a huge portion of luck - so what is then? there is no way of coming back for you since the eminent danger of getting almost insta-blown-up will most likely be still apparent, covering most if not all of the field and that often enough for the entire duration of a match through!)
- so the the solution i came across is rather simple, effective - and like i feel entirely underpresented in the community: give the dropships a flat damage-reduction to whatever ranged weaponry that possesses the strength to almost insta-blow them up during a time in the development cycle!
we could also back this up by the surely scientific nonsense description of this ability to dropships due to "Sci-Fi Structural-Integrity-Fields" and impact-energy transfer into movement due to the massive swinging/ bouncing around of the dropship upon a direct hit by a Railgun. like this, there would be finally a way open for a proper or just any balance of AV-weaponry and/ or turrets that would still leave the dropships a place to exist in the game.
BTW - Redline-Missile-Turret-Instalations still firing much more than 500 meters far?? really ?? plz. fix... :) .
2.: Small Railguns - with Uprising 1.7 release, i tested out the Small Railguns by attaching them to my BPO-LAV before re-speccing any SP - effectiveness against vehicles/ instalations, firing syle and such - satisfied i then specced into level 5 Gallente ADS, Small Railgun Operation5, Ammo5 and reload5 - just to find out that the "promised" (as in the way of "announced") splash-damage-radius is entirely missing to this gun, what makes it almost completely useless on a ADS versus infantry, what is why i still had to spec into the missile turret afterwards and use that instead!
- even somewhat worse: since when used from a rather same height-level and more importantly a stable firing-platform like a LAV or Tank out, they become apparently very useful against infantry as well, so that might make most of the community think that they would be totally OK and that CCP would never have to touch them again...
- PLEASE DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE SMALL RAILGUN SPLASH-DAMAGE-RADIUS CCP! and please may it not take you a year or more AGAIN CCP... .
thanks for your time and patience if you made it through this whole mega-sized original-post of mine here - discuss, answer, bye! |
