Your mission is to get in a squad and find enemies for your squad. Your squad comes and kills the enemies while you slip away to find more enemies for your squad.
It's so simple, yet, pretty much all scouts in this game get it wrong. This is easy to understand because CCP also doesn't understand what a scout's role is.
Scouts are not ninjas. They do not carry weapons like Nova Knives. I personally find NK scouts offensive to my former professsion.
Scouts are not CQCers. If you are engaging the enemy yourself, it's because you screwed up and they saw you.
Scout's main weapons should be their laser designator. Oh, that's right, CCP didn't include that mechanic, which is basically the ONE THING A SCOUT IS SUPPOSED TO DO. Why the F did you even include scouts at all?!?
God you guys suck at making video games. And while we are at it GÇö Everything in this game is offensive to my former profession as a Marine infantry rifleman. People don't know how to operate as tactically as military, people jump around way too much, sniping is ruined and totally bass akwards, there are no real battle lines or solid direction of enemy approach, no real camo, no prone positions and emphasis on careful movement, neverending supplies from hives, no comms discipline, no 3D depth of field, peripheral vision or sound to better I.D. targets, no tactile feel of a rifle, only a stupid game controller to try and aim with, latency with hit and visual detection. This is why I think this game silly and quickly lost interest in trying to treat it more as I would like to. I get drunk and run around like it's a frat party. Because that is exactly all it is, a stupid, updated version of the engine it is based on GÇö Unreal Tournament. But look me up. I'd like nothing better than to runwith military ppl. Sodium Amytal channel is supposedly that. I usually don't play in squads or with others though due to when and where I play. Also, I'm too jaded.
... Wow really? Sweet lord, THIS IS A VIDEO GAME. If you want real combat reinlist and do yourself a favor. And as a fan of DUST 514, I find your lack of comprehension offensive. |

Did you get to use cloaking devices? What does it feel like to have a rep tool latched to you? Laser rifles probably hurt more in real life than in Dust. |

everyones alowed to a little ragefest at the game every once and a while, theres tons of stuff that we all wish were apart of the game.
he started by simply compairing the scout suit with his old profession and ended up disapointed because of how little the two compaired to each other. thats all there is too it.
his disapointment is every bit as valid as anything else on these forums, but unfortunatly for him RL scouts dont translate very well into game mechanics and so they are oftin used for other purposes that dont match up well with his personal experiance... thats pretty much all that needs to be said on the matter now. |

I doubt anyone is going to care about your history being enlisted in the Armed Services. This is DUST 514.. I don't know abput eceryone else, but I think CCP had made the best free-to-play game that I'd got my hands on.

We didn't need cloaking devices, we knew what we were doing, plus the I raqi government would have QQd to the UN that we were OP. I also wouldn't have carried the laser rifle even if we had one. I prefer bang bang to pew pew. On a side note about lasers, have you seen the one the US Navy has on a ship? We are awesome.

Well, good for you. Unfortunately there's only like 2500 people who play DUST and out of that about 300-400 tops who feel the way you do. I'm sure you guys buy enough AUR to fund this game, so there should be no worry about losing support from Sony after this big push they're on right now doesn't pan out after a couple quarters.
By the way.......I'm pretty sure that by now no Dev steps foot near my threads, so your big anal smoochie smoochie will go unheard.

Hold on? You don't even use the scout suit? So how would you know its as bad as you believe?
If you are trying to say we need more cool stuff to facilitate even more fits, roles and uses no one will disagree If you are trying to say that scout suit needs a specific a role that every scout suit should have to play, please leave, this isn't the game for you.

I absolutely agree with you, but its not so much that "scouts" in this game are actually supposed to be scouts, but that the modern video game definition of a scout has turned into "super fast ninja." It's just like the "commando" isn't actually a commando. Basically a lot of video game developers have no clue how to name their classes.

The way I see roles working in Dust is as an abstract concept. You can adapt change and pick how you want to perform. Many people have trouble with this because they prefer definitive roles with concrete ideas. This is why we see so many threads asking what the purpose of X is all the time, or threads about X players are doing it wrong. It's people trying to define a role, or questioning why others don't play the role the way they see it. We have the ability to play how we want, and I see this as a huge factor in my enjoyment of this game.
I would love more content that opened up more options for how we define our roles in this game. A target painter, yeah I would love that. Deployable shields for triage pickups, bring em on Active modules for EWAR Deployable turrets Webbifiers Closable doors and breaching equipment The list could go on

Don't judge the role if you've never played it No need to be so hostile. He's not necessarily saying that CCP needs to change the role to match what a real life scout does, but more so that he is displeased with the fact that CCP would call such a role a scout when it doesn't carry many attributes of a real life scout.
But again, it's not just CCP, it's nearly the whole game developing community that has shifted the meaning of what a scout is in respect to their games. Valve is another culprit with TF2, that "scout" is not even remotely a scout. Doesn't means it needs to be changed, just means it's poor naming.

Good ideas! Most of these ideas have been bounced around these forums for some time. Some truly brilliant ideas have come out of this community (also some frighteningly unbalanced ones as well )

Don't judge the role if you've never played it No need to be so hostile. He's not necessarily saying that CCP needs to change the role to match what a real life scout does, but more so that he is displeased with the fact that CCP would call such a role a scout when it doesn't carry many attributes of a real life scout. But again, it's not just CCP, it's nearly the whole game developing community that has shifted the meaning of what a scout is in respect to their games. Valve is another culprit with TF2, that "scout" is not even remotely a scout. Doesn't means it needs to be changed, just means it's poor naming. If I appeared hostile then I'm sorry I'm only saying that he should try the role before he's to quick to judge No harm intended
I'm on the same boat. |
