I know that the mylolflys are fun and I'm sure many lulz will be had with them, but is anyone else just a bit put off by how silly they are? We are bouncing around like Goku on methamphetamine; that does not create a picture of a stern, militaristic, mercenary fighting force.
Does anyone else get the impression that Dust 514 is becoming less and less set in New Eden with each patch?
Not saying it is not fun, because it is! Just... not New Eden at all.

I think it'll expand the gameplay and add a whole new layer of tactics.
I mean think about it....it is now possible to jump totally clear of a sentinel and his meat grinding HMG.
That's not such a bad thing to me.....
BUT
in the same breath....shotgun wielding assaults and scouts are going to be a nightmare

Jumppacks are silly?
New Eden has to be super serious?
We will gauge the stacking heights, and reevaluate, but I think tactics just changed and I don't think it's very silly, more like future scifi parkour elite warriors. Why run and climb if you can have combat drugs.

Why would it be impossible to jump really high in New Eden? I'm an RPer and have no issues with this. Pls it creates some variety instead of pure EHP meta

I think I could swallow a new piece of equipment that gave us jump height, but the idea of a stim doing it just seems wrong. Maybe it's all in my head.
And yes, New Eden must be super serious, by the way. The players are the ones who should take the seriousness and turn it on it's head, not the game itself.

I'm on board with your method of thinking...it'll add a new dimension to Dust 514 that has been sorely needed for a long time. Hey Rattati....maybe create some new maps that offer useful items to the flyberries?

This is a great addition to the game

I don't mind some of the increased jump height, at the same time there's people that are doing crazy 60m long 25m high leaps... which I have some issues with, there might be some emergent gameplay to be had with it in how it counters or supports 'high spot uplinks' but at the same time it kind of breaks my suspension of disbelief.

In New Eden they have anti-gravity battles all the time. This is not explored as an exploited battlefield component very often for lore IMO but that isn't the focus because it is hard to explain those tactics.
I think scouts being able to leap 10 meters would be expected on any planet with less gravity. Physics state that the smaller planets we fight on should have less gravity and thus these leaping warriors should be common place. The main dispute is going to be why all the scouts don't have these modules, so what is the trade off for the other modules. Some balancing with the stacking as Rat stated may be the solution. Then you would see Red out scouts versus Blue out scouts. Jumping versus running.

This game since the beginning has been moving away from New Eden with each patch.
There is no sandbox, it is no closer to being an MMO.
They are even thinking of getting rid of damage profiles and they never really followed EVE with modules since we have passive armor repairers and high slot damage mods.
It is a space shooter which is linked by the shorthairs to another game in which it has very little impact.
These days i am not suprised anymore.

On another, who wants to have a Minja fight? Nothing but complex Stims and Cats and we must only attack whilst in the air. It'll be like those fights you see in Japanese cartoons. |

Thise goofy L buildings at objectives? Ran up inside stairs, saw a red berry, shot MD, vaulted down to ground avoiding dire, vaulted back up to ledge, shot MD, vaulted up to roof, shot MD, launched into orbit, shot MD +50.
That guy HAD to be pissdd.

Myofibril stimulants increase the force behind our melee attacks, presumably by eenhancing the plyometric force we're able to put out. If you want to be super serious, there's no logical reason such chemicals, coursing through our entire bloodstream, would affect our arms and not our legs. Physically it would make no sense for myofibs to augment our punches and not our jumps. And this would help sniper hunting, as mountain climbing would be easier for sneaky billygoa--er, minja
