Now, bear with me, but this is the first build that so many things have been complained about in the forums. It's a side effect of something that's relatively new to the community: variety. My friend pointed out to me in-game the other day that we are now seeing almost every weapon in the killfeed. I (personally) am not getting killed my one thing repeatedly anymore. I'm being taken out by scouts (cloaked and uncloaked, shotguns and otherwise), heavies, tanks, snipers (read: c*nts), mass driver users. etc., and I see that as a good thing. I'm seeing everyone use everything. People are complaining that scouts are the FoTM, but I've seen a relatively balanced number of scouts. People are crying about the tank nerf, but I'm still getting killed by tankers (read: c*nts) regularly. Don't get me wrong. There are still glitches and bugs that need to be ironed out, namely the decloaking. There are still plenty of balancing tweaks that need to be done. But for me, this certainly the most balanced build so far.
Thoughts? Opinions? Concerns?

I agree there is more variety in pub matches than the forums would suggest. A whole load of things are OP at the moment.
Except for med frames. I feel sorry for those assaults - they are like the new scouts...

I am enjoying 1.8 and all my problems come from the squad I am in, many don't use coms or even put out squad orders. I like all the changes and with some bug killing I think the game will be the best it has been in a long time.

I believe scouts are just a trend because of the new cloaks.
The majority of scouts I'm seeing are pretty bad, so the numbers of scouts will die down a little.

They aren't.
It's basically a buff.
Have fun resisting Railgun's massive damage without decent hardeners!
Not like any decent tankers really used them from that kind of range anyway.

Weapon/suit/vehicle mix is still in flux as people experiment with the changes.
I think it's a bit too early to tell how it will end up, but overall I agree with the OP that we're seeing much greater diversity on the battlefield.
Once the FoTM makes itself known to the community, I suspect we'll see less diversity.
Time will tell, but I like what I'm seeing. |

I feel the Rail rifles are at a pretty good spot right now. I can still put out suppressive fire over cover from a long distance, but I can't just drill through anyone any more. Its good where it is, though its taking some personal adjustment to get used to it. Not really a big CR user, but haven't seen too many on the field lately (except the rare MinAssault or Minommando).
The most OP weapon on the Dust Battle Field:
One good logi, one rep tool, and a heavy.

I love how you're seeing the variety in not just weapons but suits.
Has anyone else noticed the matches seem much more balanced then before? I think this is another reason people complain since with the better matches you tend to die more. I've only had one domination where we red lined the other side and they managed to break it after a few minutes. Sure my squad will usually win matches but now they're fun and not just a red line fest half the time like before.

Really? I think we are OP, but hey I'll keep running scout when I need to take aggressions out on Dust and calmmando when I want a challenge.
I know this will be unpopular with most of my fellow forum warriors but I think assaults are fine right now too. Could they be a little better without being OP? Sure. But are they as severely UP as most would have you believe? Not in my opinion
Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

But are they as severely UP as most would have you believe? Not in my opinion I personally think this is a great opportunity for CCP. That 'little bit' that the medium frames are needing should be what we get from the basic frame skills.
This would fill out the medium frames and give some meaning to those dead sp sink skills that unlock gear use.
And agreed with you about the medium frames being okish, Zahle. Even the sver suit with a damper and a precision enhancer manages to scrape by with it's severely gimped tank.
I support SP rollover.

I believe that Scouts are balanced, but the Cloak Fields are a different story. Well that, and their ability to stack HP modules to the point that it negates the Light Frame's main sacrifice.... HP.
I don't believe Assaults are underpowered necessarily, just outperformed.

The Bolt has a glitch in its range right now, but it packs a massive punch. Once that's ironed out it will be the cause of much rage. Haven't tried the Ion yet, but I hear its a decent can of scout-begone.

Without the data provided from players (gameplay and forums), it would be stupidly difficult for CCP to find all the bugs, nevermind fix them. Do you really want to play a game that has been in development for a year with no live testing? DUST was in development longer than that before closed beta, a lot of it was bad. Fun as all hell, but bad. Think I'll pass on a second run.
Back to topic I've only played 1.8 for a few hours but so far I like it. Battles seem more matched and I was dieing a lot more, but it didn't feel like a cheap death. The Magsec is a beast and I think CCP got it right. It has both power and range, but the kick is high enough to make long shots a matter of skill, not full-auto luck.
I like the cloaks too, specced into ADV Gal scout to try them out. Turns out I'm just god awful at scouting, was never a fan of stealth (except MGS). So now I use it as an AV suit. Kinkats, reactives and swarms actually makes a decent tank buster/harasser. |

I agree almost completely, but before getting too GÇ£rainbows and sunshineGÇ¥ can we please not forget about the Gallente AR. The assault combat rifle outperforms it in every aspect including fitting requirements and it is generally outperformed by everything.
Give me a bit more damage and I think it will be 100% spot on. |

I have seen the vast majority of the matches I play being fair with the exception of about one or two every every 5-7 matches being wildly unfair. Even ambush, ever since the recent vehicle limit imposed, has now become more infantry focused with battles being more epic than ever before.
Yes there are still plenty of bugs to deal with but so far the fairness of the matches and the balance of weapons and suits has made DUST much more tolerable and thus enjoyable to me. This has even encouraged me to spend some aurum on boosters even.

I will be amazed if CCP never bothered to fix matchmaking at this point because it feels like they fixed matchmaking. It's probably because we have new suits, weapons, cloaks, and other things that have affected matchmaking perhaps.

All scouts now, caldari included, aren't set up for sniping. The skill bonuses make it pretty clear that scouts are no longer intended for sniping.

O.o I find that contrary. In the open ground, cloaking DOES reduce your profile but also a flickering light is a good attractor for Sniper forge heavies or other Snipers. Like me.
I'm guilty of the same, at times, really. Especially if I am in an urban area, I use cloaks move around and to scout out my enemy first, then switch to SR to pick 'em off.
Found a cloaked logi once. Probably thought he was one hell of a sneaky bastard 'till I pegged him with a headshot kill.

Have you ever spotted a cloaked scout in those open areas where the terrain is bright and the day is sunny so that the shimmer is hidden due to lack of contrast?

Actually, I have. Multiple times. Perhaps it is because I have good eyesight. You do have a point however, some older folks out there with poorer eyesight may not be able to catch them, I admit even for me it was hard. But I still look for that shimmer...and peg 'im before they get close to any blues.

Good to see you have great eyesight in that case. Should help force a lot of cloak scouts into playing tactfully.

The majority of scouts I'm seeing are pretty bad, so the numbers of scouts will die down a little.
Someone needs to cut this out and in the place of scouts , place tanks ... and because of the vehicle changes , we had a increase in HAV usage which caused the " tank spam " and now there's " scout and heavy spam " but I wouldn't call it that really because that doesn't bother me and the fact that I understand that players are trying out new things is always a great thing .
Players finding their roles and having fun , is always a good thing .
Leave all negative comments about tanks in the bin marked " TRASH " and we'll get to it as soon as possible . Thank You

It's a side effect of something that's relatively new to the community: variety. My friend pointed out to me in-game the other day that we are now seeing almost every weapon in the killfeed. I (personally) am not getting killed my one thing repeatedly anymore. I'm being taken out by scouts (cloaked and uncloaked, shotguns and otherwise), heavies, tanks, snipers (read: c*nts), mass driver users. etc., and I see that as a good thing. I'm seeing everyone use everything. People are complaining that scouts are the FoTM, but I've seen a relatively balanced number of scouts. People are crying about the tank nerf, but I'm still getting killed by tankers (read: c*nts) regularly. Don't get me wrong. There are still glitches and bugs that need to be ironed out, namely the decloaking. There are still plenty of balancing tweaks that need to be done. But for me, this certainly the most balanced build so far.
Thoughts? Opinions? Concerns?
I agree. I am enjoying this build a lot, actually. I've had some really good matches today. Really fun stuff. Using a Caldari scout is really fun especially with a laser rifle. In fact, the Laser is really fun, now I'm using it more and more.
I don't think cloaking is OP. You can pretty easily see it and if you use scan enhancer modules you can see them on your mini-map temporarily. I am enjoying the hell out of my Gallente Commando and Sentinel. Forge Gunning is great fun and tanks aren't an issue for me any more. |
