DUST Search - How good is Duna?

Raven Exile McISKgrinder wrote:

After X amount of 80 clone ambushes where he got 25ish kills with his blaster tank and OBs, we finally got into a 50 clone ambush.

We saw this one dude running for the outskirts at the very start and me and a buddy spent over 5 minutes before we finally chased him down and I got him with my SMG.

Then I got a QQ message saying "2vs1 scared me ? lol"

So naturally we ended up with a ton of QQ back and forth and he called me a scared noob and whatnot and I said that he needed his tank and a squad of support to be any good.

In my experience he's only killed me with either a blaster tank, an OB or earlier with a HMG LAV combo...

So, whats the general consensus here? Is he actually good or is he merely playing the game in "the cheapest possible way", in effect replacing good old gungame and tactics with exploiting "the easiest path to success possible?"

So:

1. A good player alround, he has a 40 KDR FFS.

2. A good tanker but thats it.

3. Skilless exploiter of EZ-mode mechanics taken to the extreme.

4. I dunno, but at least I doubt him having any "C.o.j.o.n.e.s".

I will update as far is this thread is allowed to live...

Then he waits till his squad earns a OB so he can get some pathetic kills otehrwise he would allways end up at the bottom from his team.

This is how you kill him, have a sniper up on a tower somewhere, and just snipe him after his tank blows up.Easy, simple, you guys know how to do that.

Denchlad 7 The Last of DusT. General Tso's Alliance 326	Posted - 2014.06.30 23:20:00 - [10] - Quote Killed him 4 times in one single Ambush. Most deaths ive ever seen him have in one match. Maybe its because I squad with him when I want easy isk so he didnt RQ. Who knows. Anyway, Dunas the best player in the game at preserving his K/D. Tanker? No, a good forger will mince him every time. Anything else? No. Ive played Dom with him, hes alright with a Scout, but my God the cloak is his friend. As a pointer his new tactic for 50 Clone Ambush is to hide in a cloaked Scout ck.0 with Proto Cloak, does nothing till his squad gets an OB and drops it with an annoyingly high level of accuracy, before continuing to hide, keeping his K/D up. So go hunting on the outer parts of the maps for him. I will be the only player to Prototype every single god damn weapon before Dust dies. 5 to go.

Ablerober Sea of Sin 39	Posted - 2014.06.30 23:20:00 - [11] - Quote I was in the same team as him this weekend in normal Ambush. He got 105 WP's and no kills! I didn't do to badly, but even so afterwards I get a "Squad?" email and a squad invite - both of which I ignore. I thought limiting tanks to Amnush OMS might have slowed him down but no, he's in the top 30 for weekely kills. Maybe he's started playing Domination or Skirmish. I bet he's spent so long in a tank, he doesn't know what it feels like to fire a light weapon (except to snipe) and his gun game is truly, truly awful. Get good Duna - show us what you can do without a tank you cu*t.

His tanker buddy pretty much shut me down every time I got him almost dead. I got so sick of multiple matches in a row with Duna in them I told the squad leader to switch off Europe server. Luckily us Americans don't have to deal with him. I heard he pulls some serious ***** bullshit when his tank is about to blow up, like cloak and hide or jump out with a HMG. CCP, I thought I was going to start liking you again. I really did. Then you announced this event.

Then not long after, you'll see him leave the battle. Even typical CoD multiplayer players have more integrity than this excuse of a mercenary...

Most players are indifferent to my presence in the War Room. General Discussions has players which discuss statistics and the game in general (hence the title), and -for the most part- provides feedback which determines the mechanics and power of items (along with how they correlate with each-other). The War Room on the other hand, has done nothing besides discuss the actions of something which has no effect to the vast majority of the playerbase (or DUST 514 as a whole), while re-creating threads which lack substance and -for the most part- don't abide by the rules set forth by CCP. I could also list several things that General Discussions has produced which is constructive, while you could barely (if at all), find one thing constructive produced by The War Room. In summary, abiding by the Forum Rules (for the most part and producing constructive content, makes General Discussions far superior (and definitely better) than that of the War Room.
