DUST Search - I can't find a reason to play this game anymore.

Which is sad, because I WANT to like it, but everything has just stagnated since 1.8 hit.

Doesn't matter what I do nowadays, every time I log on, I play for one game, remember why I logged off the last time, then switch the game off. It's just HMG, HMG, HMG, shotgun'd in the back by a cloaked scout, HMG, HMG, Forge gun.

And the protospam, ffs I have no idea why, but it has doubled since 1.8 hit for no apparent reason. So instead it becomes PRO HMG, PRO HMG, PRO HMG, etc. etc. If I even think about wearing a medium suit, my ISK takes a 10% hit. So I can either be forced to use my PRO sentinel fit in order to not die instantly, or just not play.

And being forced into one particular playstyle is reason enough to not play.

I hear people say that people are just trying out the new toys and everything will settle back, but they've been saying that for a month now, and it's only getting worse.

Think about this before you make your generic kthxbai comments (not actually leaving, btw), if I am TRYING to like the game and can't, then what do you think the new players that just joined and are skeptical of the game will do?

People using any means to win by exploit or forum metagame nerfing. Although hearing the stagnant statement part is a bit confusing. I'm seeing almost everything on the battlefield. Not enough Flaylocks, Scrambler Pistols, and Plasma Cannons. Uprising 1.8 has done more for variety than anything before. It's just unfortunate Medium Frames were left behind.

KILLER EI ITE16 Inner.Hell 40	Posted - 2014.04.24 02:49:00 - [16] - Quote Yea I'm taking a break until PVE gets introduced or until it get moved to PS4. Since 1.7 I've found little enjoyment in this game. I personally can't stand people using Proto in pubs because it's just eazy mode. Ima be playing The Division, Elder scrolls online(PS4), and Watchdogs but it's not getting released until this summer. So I'm just stuck playing Madden and cod(utterly hate) and also trying to get War thunder on PS4.
