This game needs no realism as it is a futuristic game and too much realism will be harmful.

This game would become nothing but a competition of HP vs DPS without evasive manouvers. Heavies would win every time.

Strafing, jumping, hopping, and all forms of evasive movement need to stay.

Except of course that the fact heavies are slow as hell would be come a more concrete fact, on the flip side engaging at your range using cover would also become more standard. Of course in my opinion maneuverability should always exist but there should be a focus on that there is such thing as physics.

When Earth, district whatever, becomes our battle location we can employ Earth physics. Meanwhile, remember that you are not on Earth so expecting physical behaviours to be identical is a mistake.


Edit: Strafing in here is a *****, yes, you are correct.

been playing dust for a while and the whole time I thought to myself

WTF is with strafing in this game??

first off.. for me fun does equal a more realistic game feeling... ie soldiers do not strafe nor do they rush head long into a hail of bullets. that is not realistic therefore it is not as fun as using flanking maneuvers, cover, bound and cover etc. I am a more SWAT, or the new ghost recon coming out game style of tactical maneuvering.


so for me any kind of strafing, bunny hopping or any other behavior found in quake, half life, cod, BF, etc etc. is not what I like to play..

so this is a simple call of numbers for a game wide preference of game play

realistic game play - no strafe, no bunny hops, no acrobatics

unrealistic game play - strafing, bunny hopping, acrobatics


just want to know what the community prefers and do we have a split? could mean options for CCP to have a couple new game modes... make them "ultra real".. all normal earth physics at work, strafe disabled, bunny hopping nerfed. have ambush and domination maps, as well as a faction ultra real level.

so please respond with either REALISTIC OR UNREALISTIC that way my curiosity is answered.. thanks.
