DUST Search - Remove needles from Starter-fits, replace with Rep tool

The joke has lasted long enough. A new player hasn't the know-how of when to use and not use a nanite injector.

The term "dirty needle" exists in this game, and it may be a jest thing time-to-time, it's not helping the team one bit by being revived infront of enemy fire, resulting in 2 lost clones instead of 1, wasted effort, time, and more WP for the enemy team, etc.

Replace the nanite injector with a militia repair tool.

The nanite injector is one of the most flawed and broken pieces of equipment in the game (and the oldest broken).
-being able to be caught in a revive cycle that only dashboarding out of can stop
-false revives callouts flashing on the screen
-injector needing to be used 4-10x before the player gets up, sometimes resulting in a bleed out anyway
-impossible to find injector hitboxes, because the body moved after death
-characters getting stuck in the map after revive...

Something this flawed, and also that takes much thought and responsibility, has no business in the hands of a new player.

I-Shayz-I I----------I 4853	Posted - 2014.10.27 10:52:00 - [2] - Quote Fun Fact of the day: I didn't actually know that a repair tool existed in this game until I had played it for 6 months. At least, I spent a bunch of sp into "remote repair systems" before I knew that those were actually vehicle modules and not equipment. The entire time I had no idea about militia gear on the marketplace where I could try out most weapons, suits, and equipment without having to spend sp. So if you're not going to give the "medic" starter fit a repair tool, then at least modify the tutorial to introduce the militia section of the marketplace... 7162 wp with a Repair Tool!

Also: Still the buggiest POS equipment in the game. Seems worse lately, too, which is nearly inconceivable. Can only hope it's part of the 1.9 at-least-one-year-old bugfix extravanganza.

Indeed. The Basic Medium should be somewhere between Assault and Logi anyway. It should get 2 equipment slots. Swag-suit4lyfe!

Logi light with scouts having 2. Logi durable with 2 weapons,better base stats and 2 equipment? Lolno Basics have 0 combat specific role. Being the in between would give them a role. And it would destroy the concept of the basics. Basics are supposed to be garbage,so players quickly skill out of them. Players shouldn't be encouraged to keep using basics.

Something this flawed, and also that takes much thought and responsibility, has no business in the hands of a new player. This would fix one problem,but cause another. New players currently don't receive a tutorial on using the equipment wheel. Until an explanation is added,it's simpler for 'press O for revive'. Official Blueberry of the Forums.

Cause they allways run past 6 guys while beeing shot at and still manage to get you up while 6 redberrys are staring at you. Its quite a impressive stunt to pull this off frequently. Bright is the opposite of dark! Who would have thought of that?!
