Great squad play...frequent shifts in momentum...tons of strikes on both sides...
Just so many great memories of insane matches. I miss that style of gameplay a lot.

Maybe with this new matchmaking... I remeber one of the reasons it was increased was because it was more of a defeat the opposition than blow out the bunker type thing. It was more for the stompers than those fighting back so to speak.

I missed those aswell. Less one sided matches when both sides could use orbital strikes frequently. |

Not me. Just before the change I remember getting killed 4 times in one dom match by one wtf squad's OBs. To me, it just helped stomping squads stomp harder. |

I do to a degree.
If matches were/are even, then its not really a problem.
I would rather see a gradual reduction to WP costs rather than a sudden shift possibly causing major problems.

Honestly I miss getting a barrage in my solo squad and then targeting a redzone tank with it, you can easily drive through a barrage with a tank if you're quick... But them pansies never think to drive forwards out of the redzone to avoid it, so you just put it behind them and watch them basically kill themselves.
But I'm not gonna miss the barrage spam... That was boring.
Since ambush is already 'joke' mode, how about dropping the cost for an orbital to 50wp in that mode only, see how much people really like them? |

You mean when the side that had a Squad could continuously stomp with Warbarge Strikes over and over when the side that didn't have Squads couldn't call in a single one?
No, I don't miss those that much even if it means I can't call in solo Orbitals anymore.

If this is a thread to stop proto stomping, you're doing it wrong. The pro stompers are going to get more orbitals than you. The orbitals are a lot more diverse and advanced than they were before. Yeah it was more fun when they were more frequent

I miss matches where the total WP for the entire team > one major WB strike.
I know you must be hating the way Dust is being played at the moment SMB. I think they've killed off team play almost completely.

Yeah, racking up those frequent strikes really motivated your squad to play tight and fight hard. Exchanging blows actually worked in your favor in those days so a squad of cohesive, albeit non-elite guys could often win with that strategy against better killers. Warbarge strikes change the momentum of the match and give guys who don't have the best gun game a chance to dislodge crack shot defenders and take the point. Now that the strikes are extremely infrequent, gun game is pretty much everything, which is enough to make a support-oriented logi squad leader cry. |

No.
Warbarges should remain a once or maybe twice a battle occurrence. I hated the days of squads dropping half a dozen of the things in one match.

Is it not more realistic to have a lot of warbarge strikes?
Realistic may not be the right word, but given what I know about the original vision of Dust it seems like it would be a bigger part of the battles.

I used to get 25000 WP just being a repper, Warbitals had to be earned with mad-skill during those days. Required a sh##-ton of teamwork and coordination, etc&etc.
Okay, I know I need to stop with all these random ideas and stuff. But like, a Minmatar Warbarge themed starship would be nice.

Even back when warbarge strikes were more frequent skirm was hardly affected. There are just too many points in that game mode for strikes to make a huge difference. And domination is absolute garbage right now due in part to the lack of warbarge strikes. Once a defender gets their claws into the point, the game is pretty much over in true gun game-centric, stompfest fashion. More frequent strikes would at least change that dynamic a bit and allow for more frequent shifts of momentum. |

You mean like back when I could earn 7k wp in a single domination match?
Yeah, that totally wasn't abuse of orbital mechanics AT ALL
(maybe reduce it for FW so that the guys in space have a chance to at least drop a few...if people even do that anymore)

not really missing being killed by OB while spawning, taking point, driving a tank, driving a dropship, shooting, jumping, breathing... I think its the only reason why we don't have a toilet in merc quarters ;)
I think they were too frequent, as you can easily make 2500 in a 3 person team in skirmish/dom.
These days I think I see them too rarely, although they are still mainly used to stomp some more.
I always thought of them as something for the losing team to try to get back into the fight, but It mainly works the opposite in the pubs (especialy in dom, when one team is farming like no tommorow, not trying too much to take the point till there's about 1/2 health left of the enemy MCC and then they start to stomp like mad)
I hope it serves the function of helping losing team in highly organized and skilled matches (pc maybe?? ), but I think it should be changed for pubs (maybe cheaper OB the bigger the difference in clones/mcc health?) |
