DUST is a FPS. That FP stands for "First Person". We fly our ships directly with a controller and it really matters if we can look out of our ships or if we have to look through them from behind or overhead. The magic camera drone is a real immersion breaking hindrance to accurate flight.
Are you saying that the camera drones (which are not magic, they're a real thing, even today, just these are far more advanced) should be removed, only allowing for the turret camera? lolno.
No, I'm saying the sensors would be ON the surface of the vehicle such that it could provide a virtual view through the vehicle walls from the viewpoint of being inside a transparent vehicle. You could just look over your virtual shoulder and see behind your vehicle without spinning it around.
Deliberately piloting by a view outside your vehicle is as stupid as trying to drive your car looking from a chase drone. There's a reason they stick a FP camera in drones, because it makes it possible to fly. What's more, putting vision senors on the skin of your craft is so friken more useful. You get a full view, not one limited angle looking up the ass end of your dropship.
The drone camera is a stupid, lazy mechanic that has no place in this game. |

This is a terrible idea for a couple reasons. First: It completely alienates lone-wolf players. Second: Communication, not everyone has a mic. You can't tell me that one person can drive and one person can man the main turret effectively without verbal communication between them. So it also alienates those without a mic. Honestly lonelies?! Boyo the game itself dont pushing people to coop at all. Look on MAG, that game basicaly gave more point if you was with your squad. BTW lonelies dont winning game, the squad is. And sorry tank should be squad based vehicle with Commander, Driver, Loader and Shooter. For your lonelies there will be other vehicles MTACs, Speeders and Jets. Sorry, I can't find those on the Market yet, can you point me to them? Copy/Paste from my post: "For your lonelies there will be other vehicles MTACs, Speeders and Jets." So, for the time until those vehicles get added, the people who want to play solo are just told to **** off?
Seems like everybody just want to get more people to **** off so you guys can play your own game.
Looking for a Interesting Character Name?
Why Not Zoidberg?

The problem this game has is that there is a single environmental niche to fill as there is one function needed to win games.
The only thing you need is to be able to slay mercs. Full stop.
So every fitting is attempting to survive and compete in that one environmental niche. If one organism is the clear favorite it will expand to dominate the environment absent some other control. Right now that is the blaster tank. It is clearly dominant and but for the artificial vehicle cap would drive infantry extinct.
There are four options:
- Leave everything alone and let infantry die off except for those who can't drive due to the cap
- Make tanks significantly weaker so they are even with a single suit
- Require a crew whose size is commensurate with its power level
- Move it out of that environmental niche so it doesn't compete directly with infantry
That's it. Those are your choices. |
