The mission system is a 1 to 1 copy from the dayly challenges that where in COD black ops. You got COD points and XP if you accomplished those challenges. Like get 20 kills in a match etc. so not really a new thing there. However i would like to see elite missions which are harder to pull off like get a 10 k/d in a match or win a skirmish match without armor damage on your MCC.

not sure why the cal logi, who specializes in hives, the most costly of equipment, would have the lower bandwidth than gal and min logi. gal and min specialize in scanners and rep tools, and those items are not penalized with bandwidth at all.

This is just one of many issues which will continue to be debated regarding the Bandwidth system.

The introduction of Bandwidth is a big and positive step forward in my opinion, but there will have to be additional tweaks made before we get it right.

That being said, I think we will do a better job of tweaking it once we have some hands on experience with it, so lets wait and try it out in-game, reach informed opinions, and meet back here on the forums in about 3 weeks for a thread of constructive feedback.

Agreed?

Are we still getting the Assault suit profile buff to 45db?

I am pretty disappointed. Kind of deflated too. i have Uplinks Lv5, Amarr Logi Lv5, Remotes Lv 5, and nanohives Lv4. You have taken all that SP and compressed it into two minutes. Thats all im allowed to play the game for.

i used to go around setting uplinks with remote mines on them. Cant do that anymore. Used to go around delivering triage nanohives to the front line. Cant do that anymore. Used to go around putting down anti vehicle traps in the from of proxy mines, or anit personnel traps. Cant do that anymore. All i can do is spend 2 mins deploying, and then im supposed to be a subservient player who is FORCED to either repair or revive at the front lines in a non combat suit.


Scouts can use their cloaks anywhere an infinite number to times. Assaults can change to a different weapon/armor setup with no consequences. Slayers can change to a double swarm launcher commando to shoot down a dropship and switch back. Mine is the only role where im not allowed to wield my milions of SP. My unique playstyle is ruined. Everyone else gets to play their role and deploy a bit of equipment an d switch between other roles with no bandwidth.

And what was the problem? Spam? You mean people that drop 50 manohives at a supply depot? Thats not what i was doing. What about all the tryhard PC obsessed players? Are they still able to carry 1 uplink/nanohive in on their favorite proto suit? 6 players each bringing one nanohive is more destructive than the 3 that im restricted to now.


So congradulations, you gutted my role as a dedicated logi while still enabling those who cannibalize my role. You should atleast have the decency to give a free respec to anyone who is a dedicated logi. Im ruined, i got nothing left. I made my living delivering equipment and setting traps. Im a solo player what am i supposed to do now?


PS Merry Christmas thanks for the coal

This is a well-constructed argument. In the week or two following the release of 1.10 see if you can adapt, and if not, then find the Bandwidth feedback threads and post your argument again, augmented by the personal experience with the new system you have earned in the field.

I think you make some good points, and I think the Bandwidth system will have to be tweaked again before they get it right. Just because it is going live in its current form does not mean those stats are final in the long term.

Bandwidth is not intended as an overall nerf to Logi. If it ends up making Logi less viable compared to other suits, then the system will be tweaked accordingly.

Wait so by missions... Hold on, EPIC? This sounds better than khanid cereal in freshly thawed dairy! You mean story is finally being brought into dust, slavage gameplay and looting are upcoming, and in a couple months were looking at a new expansion with player trading, warbarges, and other awesomeness? Don't tease me, this really makes me want to recruit more ppl to this game even though my old recruits all quit playing. Its a shame I have to wait a week to see any of this happen

Edit: saw the missions and strongboxes pictures. Would like more variation in the missions, but for now this is really awesome. i hope branching from this that we may see sleeper drones(they could use the old super aggressive turret installation ai) because although I want mtacs, i know a lot of ppl that would be pulled in by questing, player trading, and pve. anyway really really aqesone stuff

- Gallente/Minmatar Logistics: STD/ADV/PRO = 20/28/36
- Amarr/Caldari Logistics: STD/ADV/PRO = 16/24/32

* Range Amplifiers now add 15% range

hey frame...

WHEN?!
i want 2x grenade on assault suits! and logi suits!

Agreed. Overall it's going to be a plus. It may need tweaking, but there is a ton of potential for benefit to dedicated logi's.

Can flux strikes go through buildings?

That is still entirely possible. This is njot about balance. This is because the slayer obsessed CPM complains that things like lag ruin their farming of noobs and uplinks placed high allow an enemy to have a fighting chance. So they want to make it so that me, a dedicated logi, can only place two uplinks, while they can still place a convenience one anywhere they want.

So when you get into a uneven match, instead of having a dedicated logi placing uplinks to get out of the red line, youll have to walk out yourself. Instead of a cluster of mines taking out that LAV + HMG guy, he will be hyour problem. Instead of some crazy AV guy with remotes running up to the hull of a tank and exploding it, the tank will be able to go on unbothered.


This is meant to stop people from deploying 50 nannohives at a supply depot. Instead of just making a exclusion radius, they decided to destroy an entire role. You wont notice any changes until you need a good spawn or supplies. you wont get any.

Interesting. I am curious where Legion stands now though. It was a big thing that DUST was not getting anything new. Hotfixes were the name of the game. 1.9 had stuff that was previously worked on and was just being implemented. This stuff though... Bandwidth is entirely new, crates, daily missions, and new warbarge strikes? Makes me wonder if the child that was thrown from the crib when the new baby came about has gotten old enough to smother the screaming baby. But, let's stay positive!

Will decrypting the gear be 100% successful or will there be some kind of chance mechanic?
