DUST Search - Hello my Dust Family, and Goodbye

On March 31st of 2014, six days from today, I will no longer have internet. Symptoms of being poor. Anyway, I wanted to leave you guys with a few last words before I vanish for an indeterminable amount of time (most likely a few months).

First, Minmatar Assaults are gonna be better than most of you expect in 1.8. Their CR may be nerfed, but with the clip size increase there is a comparable amount of damage per clip if you have Assault 5. Couple that with increased TTK and the naturally fast reload speed of the CR/SMG, not to mention the slightly faster strafe speed, Minmatar suits are going to be pretty beastly. After doing a bit of theory crafting, I may be staying with them after all. My dedication to the suit for the entirety of Uprising finally paying off... for a few days anyways...

Second, allowing this "AV v Vehicle" debacle to continue after 1.7 and then re-nerfing AV again in 1.8 with the Prof skill and damage mod changes is just wrong. AV is demoralized enough from 1.7, a few WP isn't going to lure out the true AV players in their good gear. They have to have a 50/50 chance against tanks based on what gear they and the tanker are running and based on each player's ability to run their role. 1v1, equally skilled players running their best stuff should always have a 50/50 shot at winning the fight. Doesn't matter if it's tank v tank, infantry v infantry, or V v AV, no one should have to team up on one player to take them out unless they are of at least equal skill and are running higher tiered stuff. /topic

Third, good luck to all of you in 1.8 and beyond. My stay in 1.8 will be limited and I will unfortunately miss out on all of Fanfest and the updates coming soon after, but I implore you all to keep pushing CCP. Push them to fix what is broken, push them to balance the game, push them to get Dust on ps4, push them to keep improving and expanding this game so that when I return I can hop back on this whale and ride it into the sunset.

And finally, I say my goodbyes. I'll be in-game to spend my last moments of internet access with my friends. Do not mourn for me, I have several games still to platinum.... this will give me time to work on them. I've always wanted time off from Dust to finish up some of my backlog of games, now it looks like it's time to get crackin'! Resonance of Fate, I'm coming for dat PLAT!
