Beck Weathers Ghosts of Dawn General Tso's Alliance 356	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:27:00 - [1] - Quote Not really going to do it to stomp on the new berrys, but I always find I get the best feel for a weapon, or suit when using it on a new clone with no SP. I will likely make an alt for each of the new scout suits, and also skill them into some of the sidearms and have a ball and see what "feels right" Will try caldari scout with MAG SMG + bolt pistol Galente scout with AR + Ion pistol Minmatar scout with Remotes + knives And Amarr scout with LR + scram pistol May try out cloaks to if SP and fitting costs allow. Oh and likely try out a malita caldari heavy. Anyone else going to test out some new stuff with a fresh newberry clone?

Hopefully the prices arent absurd, and proto prices go down a litte, 57k or 47k for a extra slot is stupid. Btw on my character I killed tye same logistics ak.0 7 time lol
Makuta Miserix Better Hide R Die 225	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:31:00 - [5] - Quote If you stomp then you are doing nothing but hurting the playerbase. I honestly don't like being in the Academy when using a new character, (because knowledge is power) but unfortunately there isn't an option too skip it. May Scout's rise up again, and bring forth terror upon their enemies. Among the last of BHD Dust 514 Private Beta Vet
Supernus Gigas Star Giants 89	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:37:00 - [6] - Quote I always feel bad having to do the Academy when starting a new clone. Feels wrong going 49/3 using only MLT Scrambler Pistols against a horde clueless blueberries. I just try to get through it as fast as I can, usually only takes one or two matches. *FIRE UP THE HEAVY MEAT GRINDER! WE'RE HAVIN' CLONE BURGERS TONIGHT, BOYS!*

Well I called it stomp because of just that reason, knoledge is power, but fortunatly with the messed up Academy WP limit I will be out of it in a match or two
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 2181	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:39:00 - [8] - Quote I keep a few alts rolling passive SP just for these testing purposes, but they're all out of Academy. I'll keep them all racially correct in case I ever feel like changing things up. Natalie Portman.
Zeylon Rho Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 3265	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:40:00 - [9] - Quote I find you're out of the Academy before you have the ISK to even buy the skillbooks for whatever gear you want to try. Then you're off to the protostomp with a skill-less character. They really need to make militia versions of everything of all the new gear. Join my cult.
8213 0uter.Heaven Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 1407	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:42:00 - [10] - Quote Already cookin'... But I won't stomp the Academy. Fish in a bucket!

Forlorn Destrier Bullet Cluster Legacy Rising 2334	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:46:00 - [11] - Quote As I have no issue with spending SP on things I may not use 100% of the time, I will do it on my main. What will be your legacy? Will you rise, or will you fall?
Vicious Minotaur Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 579	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:50:00 - [12] - Quote Based on what I heard, I'll get to run around in militia suit variants before I spend any SP. So I'll skill into things on my main accounts after I get acquainted with the militia versions..
Greasepalms Ahrendee Mercenaries EoN. 421	Posted - 2014.01.20 22:53:00 - [13] - Quote yes because testing against helpless bots will give you an accurate feel for a weapon/suit

As I said having no skills what so ever is the real test, all my core skills, and proto armor and shield makes a diferance on how a suit works and feels. Greasepalms wrote: yes because testing against helpless bots will give you an accurate feel for a weapon/suit Not really But I will have to get trough acadamy before I can begin the real tests, Its all for science! FOR SCIENCE!
Broonfondle Majikthies Dogs of War Gaming Zero-Day 743	Posted - 2014.01.20 23:01:00 - [17] - Quote There's no point in going into academy to test gear. It won't be a proper baseline for the experiment as many in the academy are still learning the fundamental controls. Besides (its been a while but from what I can remember) they're so woefully terrible the last time I went through academy I went something like 65/3 with a militia heavy and standard HMG - when it was at its most useless. my team did literally nothing so I capped the point and I had to take on all the reds single-handedly (my 3 deaths? - I ran out of bullets) "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"
Jack Kittinger Molon Labe. Public Disorder. 87	Posted - 2014.01.20 23:02:00 - [18] - Quote what do you mean by new alt? didn't you make enough alts the first time?

I have a tank alt and a heavy alt and thats it. Will need more, tho most will be deleted after a week of testing, to many alts is a hassle
Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 615	Posted - 2014.01.21 00:37:00 - [20] - Quote I have at least 1 point in every gun. Laser, MD, AR, RR, etc. If I like it, I'll keep skilling into it. If you stomp new players, you won't be able to tell if it's useful against real players.

Rusty Shallows 848	Posted - 2014.01.21 00:39:00 - [21] - Quote A guy who used to squad with me would make Battle Academy ALTs to build up ISK that he then would then transfer to his Main. He had a very aggressive play style that got kills but ate up good suits. If I try out BA it will be for the game experience. Here, have some candy and a Like. :) Forums > Game
Ludvig Enraga KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 833	Posted - 2014.01.21 00:49:00 - [22] - Quote Man, I love this thread - shows all the 14 yo would be beardnecks. Bragging about stomping the academy... just wow... this speaks for itself. I see any of you on my team in FW, I am team killing you - oh wait, you don't play FW you run around in Ambush padding your KDR while skipping school. good day. Oh, sht! I just learned you can make a signature! Thanks, CCP! Forums are getting better!
Bethhy Ancient Exiles. Renegade Alliance 890	Posted - 2014.01.21 00:52:00 - [23] - Quote Academy should be teaching things like how to hack an objective.... whats a nanohive... how to use it... whats a supply depot do... Whats an Uplink.. The differences between the suit races... How to use Dust's controls and aim... How suit fittings and skills work.. Maybe someone with a voice over instead of a wall of TXT... Academy now is a game mode that should exist as a Militia Item only mode. ANd Militia Items not register player skills. Until we take the new player coming into DUST and give them the basics of information and make the pursuit of early knowledge boring for a vet we know it's starting to work. Until then it's gonna be like "Here is This Nice New game" then a few matches later kick them out to This

ROFL actualy if you read past the thread title you would know that this is actualy a discution about making alts and testing new suits, and seriously if you arnt out of the academy after 1 match your doing it wrong. Also I see more nubs in FW than anywhere else. Your faild white knighting really makes my day tho.
DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency Gallente Federation 3415	Posted - 2014.01.21 01:10:00 - [25] - Quote Pathetic You bring great dishonor to your family. My alts: General John Ripper, Draxus Prime, MoonEagle A, Anarchide, Long Evity And this is why I am the #1 forum warrior
