The heavy machine gun and scrambler rifle should have a warning in the middle of the screen when you are about to overheat, like a transparent red triangle or something. I can't be bothered to look all the way to the bottom right of the screen in the middle of a firefight to see if i'm about to overheat, because i'm on a 63' TV.
EDIT: There should also be an option to disable it in the settings because someone will get butthurt over it. |

It's proven fact that bigger tv's actually handicap your ability to react in video games due to not being able to process all information as readily. Also, one should learn to get a grasp of how many shots you've fired when using a ScR and learn take cover and let it cool down. Good ScR users feel when to back off and take cover, not look at the heat meter.
EDIT: a more easily recognizable visual weapon cue would be nice, but a flashing symbol or message is both distracting and too easy mode.

I'd prefer if the heat gauge was on the aim reticle.

If both charge and heat gauges were on the reticle, then a lot of weapons would benefit.
Sometimes, one just has an overwhelming urge to throw a potato at someone.

It has a heat gage already, it's called the barrel. Learn the color and you won't overheat. If it's turning cherry red you should probably back off

Would be nicer if they just let out some smoke. Dunno if the PS3 can handle it.
I may not have a mic, but trust me, you NEED me in your squad if you want to win.

Im sure you like 50 button on your steering wheel on your car aswell.
Less is more with a crosshair.
CCP Teaching players that play DUST what the heat bar is actually for? Would go a long ways to fixing the confusion.
Just having a bar that randomly increases with no explanation to what it does is pretty shortsighted and humorous.
CCP is just terrible at explaining how to play their games or even use their UI.
You go play Pokemon and a 4yr old can figure out how the strength and weaknesses work with Water and Fire and Plant etc...
You come to DUST 514? And you can't even see the damage profiles of weapons until yo go into a match and notice the damage readout at the bottom of your screen.
On a game balanced and tweaked around statistical data. Yet we barely have a UI displaying much to us at all...
And Battle academy is the biggest wasted feature that has existed in the history of DUST. There should be an entire development group around Promoting and expanding on it.
Instead? There isn't one feature in DUST that has been worked on less then the Battle Academy. |
