DUST Search - 1.8 Prediction

Balamob wrote:

After seeing the last update decitions about dust, i predict the next :
1.- AV will suck more than ever with reduction to DMG modules and the proficency skill.
2.- Dealing with heavies on 1.7 is hard, even when they r 3 agains 1, now with DMG nerf, hevies DMG reduction and the increase of heavies numbers, medium frames will be on hell of a situation.
3.- A lot of people will choose scouts as the new assault, cus assault is not fast enough to escape most situation, is easier to detect with scans/radar, light frmes has 2 equipment slots and better CPU/PG numbers.
4.- The increase of shield/armor numbers plus/and because the general DMG nerf, the TTK wont increse just a little, most fight will be decided by raw numbers and less by skill.
5.- Investing on DMG proficency on laser and blaster weapons wont be much of an option as with projectiles and rail weapons, cus the amount of shield is much less than the amount of armor people usually fit.
6.- Tanks will still be decicive on most matches.

Conclusion:
I love dust and im going to give a try to 1.8 update, this is just my predictions, i just hope CCP has a back up plan in case this goes to a horrible case escenario.

What armor or shield value increase Btw, in games you dont give huge damage bonuses to thinga that have super low hp, I predict the scr will cause every caldari to not use caldari or armor tank If you expect patch notes soon, you're gunna have a bad time

If you go scout in 1.8, get ready to die so fast your shields haven't depleted yet on a regular basis. If you ever get spotted by an enemy with full health, you'd better already be pulling the trigger to a shotgun or be running away. 100% Tactical Scout Corporation

CCP is putting everything on the line for fanfest, until that time they seem content taking 3 months on what is shaping up to have should have been a monthly fix. 1.8 took 3 months...Really?

I guess these are fair productions, As the nature of predictions go you seems to have identified the key issue in 1.8; whoever has the most sentinels or tanks should win. Things are similar now, tanks rule but its easier to counter because of what you mentioned. If i can add something, i predict elite teams will be utilizing cal scout instead of a gal logi. Its more versatile and its racial boost seems too good to pass up. - Cots

Sam Tektzby Better Hide R Die 304	Posted - 2014.03.08 03:34:00 - [16] - Quote Why there is that cry over stacking. AV should be powerfull without dmg mods, end of story. I still see how AV will suck withou mods, but hell thats not about mods at all. AV should tear apart any armor, Why i see in this "1.8 will suck" posts just dmg mods wanted, not a base AV wanted. Just buff AV weapons and mods i dont care, mods are supplement for me and they should be supplements, nothing else. Support - Tactician/Support Deteis - Orator BHD since MAG
Tectonic Fusion 1222	Posted - 2014.03.08 03:52:00 - [17] - Quote Almost right. Th only thing you got wrong is the scout part. I'm pretty sure assault players won't know how to play as a scout and deep in the open and essentially try to be an assault. They will fail, and try out the commando.
