DUST Fiend Onslaught Inc RISE of LEGION 15300	Posted - 2014.11.30 16:48:00 - [31] - Quote By independent turret rotation for ADS, do you mean we will be able to aim up and down while in first person? Flight Academy coming soon(tm) to my YouTube WoD 514
Joseph Ridgeson WarRavens Capital Punishment. 2815	Posted - 2014.11.30 16:53:00 - [32] - Quote How about a "GTFO!" button? Nothing is worse than when I am trying to fly my ADS and a Stayberry jumps in. If I decide that I want to return my ADS, well, I can't because Mr. Stayberry is still there. Even worse is if I jump out to recall he flies away with it. Maybe a button that gives the player a warning that they will be kicked in 5 seconds, requires the vehicle to not be moving, to be low to or on the ground, and not taking damage? Would make dropping people to their doom impossible but let us deal with Stayberries. "This is B.S! This is B.S! I paid money! Cash money, dollars money, cash money!"

A slow but tough LAV would be perfect for driveby heavies, one of the absolutely worst things about the game. Also, Marauders would be a bad idea. Don't you remember the beta tankstomp fest? Most of these ideas are not bad at all if done right but I'm worried that they're sandwiched between the ghosts of imbalance past...
Sgt Kirk Fatal Absolution 8649	Posted - 2014.11.30 17:45:00 - [35] - Quote There needs to be an active module that allows for vehicles to resupply infantry. The Armor/Shield Repair function of the LLAV needs to be redone as well. An Area of Effect would be much more prefered...for both ammo and hp. CCP holds the Caldari's hand so this doesn't happen again.
Lady MDK Kameira Lodge Amarr Empire 193	Posted - 2014.11.30 17:53:00 - [36] - Quote Not really a balance question but : Quote: If its possible to create the remaining heavy weapons using existing assets as suggested in another thread with tweaked stats what the possibility of creating a rust red reskin of the caldari Lav, Hav and Dropship and having it under minmatar vehicles. Also a Gold reskin of the gallente vehicles but calling them Amarrian. You would have to insert the skill trees into the game for these races vehicles of course. They could have weapons that are tweaked to act like the respective races cannons too? A minmatar Dropship with HMG Turrets raining bullets over the battlefield. Afterthought: If this is possible why not do it for turret mounts as well? Sorry for semi-Hi-Jack Anyone getting annoyed by reading of the above post should consider the following. I don't care so neither should you :)

Most of these ideas are not bad at all if done right but I'm worried that they're sandwiched between the ghosts of imbalance past... Speed = Invincibility on the LLAVs in a similar manner to the ADS' speed. As for alot of things we can go many many many different ways. For example It was suggested to make our current tanks act more like MBTs (slower heavier higher hp) while making marauders more like Light Infantry tanks fast and not as hard hitting but clearly designed for taking out other tanks with that speed and hit and run capabilities. While the enforcer goes into the tank destroyer route. There are plenty of suggest so far that I am compiling together and collaborating with other CPM members on; you can join in on one of the conversations here https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2457386#post2457386.

Sounds wonderful and I hope to be positive to provide you with the best feed back and suggestions I can offer. Certainly now that you are looking at two kinds of Missile Launcher what are the chances of considering a rebalancing/redesign of the large blaster turret so it can compete more effectively on an Anti Tank/ Vehicle level, and dominate less so on an infantry level?

That's so tanks and installations just don't easily blast dropships out of the sky like they normally do, but it will give tank drivers the ability to defend their self through more team/squad orientation. Bring in players in their tank to protect them from AV and dropships and all. My Isk payout gets lower and lower the more I play, even though I'm getting better. Smells like success.

Not wholly true. I mean one design flaw that has irked me is that of the Large Turret. Why install a weapon that is fundamentally inferior in terms of penetrative and destructive power than a hand held weapon on a mechanised frame? Answer you probably wouldn't as a main gun. The main cannon of a tank is designed to apply massive fire power at range against other armoured vehicles and entrenched positions it was not a weapon deployed against individual infantry men (hence why most tanks have forward and cuppola gunners). I wholeheartedly believe the role of an HAV should follow this archetype and not used as a tool for slaying infantry in droves unless anti infantry small turrets are specifically made use of. That however is not to say a main gun would not instantly kill infantry on a direct hit and cause AoE splash damage against entrenched positions....but the cost of that has to be long reloads and sustained DPS.

Armour repair systems could easily deal with something as in-complex, relatively speaking, as a normal drive system.....but if you get into anti gravity systems for 60+ tonne vehicles....... more power is going to be needed...... perhaps this kind of power cannot be generated for the main gun and the drive system at the same time.

The modern main battle tanks cannon are against all ground targets using different types of ammo, infact since WW2 the tanks cannon have had anti infantry and AV ammo. What your describing are a tank killer and it got obsolete a long time ago, because of when no prey can be found the tank itself becomes victim of the infantry, which describes dust514s vehicle balance right now. But hey whatever, lets even add an hold circle to enter and exit vehicles as CCP ratface suggested to make an even more stale, stupid boring game.

Dropships almost always does not use their full potential of transporting people over the area. That's quite sad, but pilots fly alone even with squad and mCRU. Transport capability heavily depends on map (small maps literally make dropships useless for transport). Also, landing and taking off a dropship is much more time consuming (and dangerous) than pick up teammates with ground vehicles. But the biggest enemy for transport dropship is the drop uplink. It provides too convenient way for delivering troops to battlefield - very fast and very precise. So I would not cry if you completely remove dropships and replace it with light aerial units. They will be one-manned vehicles with single small turret. So they can perform the same task as ADS do and will not be just a waste of SP, ISK and cargo capacity. <[^_^]>

LLAV - Fine 2. 2 types? Anymore details? 3. Logi DS seems fine, also should come with mCRU and mobile supply depot for troop transport and also a kick button for blueberrys who will not leave 4. Ramming - I hope this benefits shield DS since they can tap the ground and lose half shield 5. Modules - Frankly i would like a fair few modules back like Passive Resistance Plates, Power Diagnostic Units, Damage Control, Nanofibres etc, also can skill that just unlock modules also come with a useful skill bonus too? 6. Large blaster dispersion is too high - Used to be where i aim is where i shoot, now its where i aim doesnt matter because your 2/3/4th shot miss anyways, HMG is more accurate 7. DS - Again? I hope its a buff this time to the ADS which has mainly been killed off 8. Elevation - Up or down? I expect judge to complain that we cant look up to kill his hovering dropship just like he got the railgun 600m range cut in half, i expect a nerf 9. Placement - You mean they go where i put them? 10. Turning - Seems to be a terrible skill if thats as fast as we can turn it now 11. I fly one way and shoot the other way, gonna be hard to master 12. Turretless HAV ftw 12a. APC are a must in this game, i would like to have 1 small turret - Anti infantry turret because its an APC which is supposed to get infantry into infantry places so covering fire would be good unless you can shoot out the side of the APC, could be like a Logi DS with a mobile CRU and supply depot so you pick up and drop ppl off, also button to kick out blueberrys who wont get out, infact the turret makes them stay in it maybe best no turret but better defences 13. Mauraders (mammoth tanks) - Apart from it being covered in hair and has 2 long tusks for stabbing infantry with this could be the best part of the entire list - Finally something to skill into which could be better than what we have now, i do hope it has extra slots, pg,cpu, shield armor etc 14. Hold to get in - Why? Its bad enough that the hacking skill doesnt work with your vehicle, i mean who else knows your system better than you? recall takes forever and skills/modules do not make it work any quicker Extras 15. Locking - We need proper locking, why can a blueberry who has no skills in anything vehicle be able to jump into the drivers seat of my HAV or ADS or any vehicle for that matter, we need to follow EVE and if you cant use it you cant get in it or just give me a lock everyone out button which can also double up as a get out button if i have ppl in my vehicle who i want out 16. Skillbooks - If it unlocks stuff it really should have a skill bonus added for that modules it unlocks 17. Installations - There HP is too damn high and no one uses them or looks after them anyways, they are WP hack targets for infantry and nothing more, they are rarely used and for pilots they have to get rid of them 1st, if you make them low HP then at least they are out of the way 18. Location inaccessible - Im in the middle of an open area with nothing round for 500m in all directions, really? in some areas i can call them next to a building 50m high 19. Large railgun glitches - For 2 years its been broken, it will fire and cause no damage to the target then either completely lock up and cant be used until you hop out and back in your vehicle or will over heat and use your ammo up 20. Large Missile - Its not fully auto, semi auto at best

The map sizes dont justify transport dropships. It's about as efficient to run on foot. The tanks need a hard look and the ADS needs a tweak. But transport ships are... I have a hard time envisioning them as more useful than an ADS which can transport as well. Drop uplinks are not the problem, map sizes are. Moving a squad from place to place it takes longer to get to them, land, pick them up and fly to next target than it takes to run or just drop two LAVs and go.

Also scout vehicles coming back ever? And pilot class??? I think especially with assault drop ships or marauder tanks we shouldn't have the person jumping out the cockpit be a heavy that couldn't fit in the cockpit much less maneuver in his armor plates well enough to work the controls. Now, if I was stomping around in an MTAC and got a grip of REs stuck on me and had to jumpout in a light suit with a couple pistols to either defend my vehicle or bail out and get to safety, that would be more plausible, right?

Especially if transpo ships are made to be slow. Just grab an LAV, its cheaper, faster, safer, and generally stealthier. Flight Academy coming soon(tm) to my YouTube WoD 514

We will indeed be taking a look at vehicles, and I agree it's their time now. Right now I am hoping to be able to do so in December, with a hotfix. I will certainly be asking the CPM and Community for all the feedback necessary. A few things from the top of my head, that I would like to take a look at: LLAV, but not OP fast version Two types of Missile Turrets Logistics Dropships, "no" weapons, remote rep, slow as HAV, ultra durable Ramming damage calculations Bring back a few Modules, preferably Active Small Blaster Dispersion is too high Re-review Dropships Turret elevation Small turrets in proper fitting placement Turret rotation speed and skill bug (not a bug really, it's just capped by the rotation max speed) Would like independent movement of ADS front turret (slight) Turret less HAV's, or MAV's, high speed high durability troop transport Marauders (Mammoth tanks) I know of a friend who would definitely return if marauders made a comeback. Pill Popping Madness!
