[I was never in the military I apologize my joke wasn't very good...the blue and grey uniforms was the part that was supposed to make people realize..civil war..I apologize that was bad

I'm imagining Union and Confederate soldiers violently strafing back and forth with longrifles. Even the drummer and standard bearers are doing it to avoid enemy fire.

It's amazing

Strafing != Dancing Soldier

While we're going tactical, can we get the Dust cloak to be an infantry version of the Eve cloak?

Hi nerd. I like realism in my combat movement and aiming.

Even Destiny makes the wiggle dance impossible, so no, it's not a major part of every FPS.

And yes I did enlist in the marines. It's one of the many readons I find wiggle wiggle 514 idiotic.

I said 6 to 10, but okay. I don't have the means to capture it on video, but would some EoM screen captures be enough for you?

Strafing left and right faster than hit detection and your opponent's aim can keep up was pretty much the pinnacle of gaming guys.

There's a reason you have a 1.3 lifetime KDR and I don't believe for a second you become a 6-10 KDR killer once you invoke the wiggle.

But there's no reason to make stuff up to support your position.

personal integrity

You're doing it wrong.

When you enter the DUST forums, you leave that **** at the door.

Noob.

So you'd rather the pinnacle of gaming become who steps out of cover first and/or who sees who first?

Covering up poor hit detection by slowing strafe speeds is not the right solution, IMO.

Just because your fingers and FPS skills are sub-par doesn't mean the rest of us should be penalized for it.

I know EoM screens aren't acceptable but... http://imgur.com/ApFqHwM

Glad the Gallente/Caldari Assault situation is finally being addressed. Been waiting -soooo- long for both of those suits to be viable ^_^

Being a nerd pays much better than the marines.

If you want realism in your combat movement and aiming, you're playing the wrong game (i.e. Dust) on the wrong platform (i.e PS3) with the wrong interface (i.e. DS3).

Go back to AV, and let those of us who actually know how to play FPS rather than lost space pilots discuss this, mkay?

Is it too late to make a joke about entire regiments of Confederate soldiers zig zagging their way through Union artillery, or has that moment passed?

I kind of came late to the game so to speak.

It's never too late to describe the epic dance-off that general pickett lost at Gettysburg.

One way to look at strafing in shooters is as an amplifier of tactics.

People say 'tactical shooter' as if the movement capabilities/limitations of suits some how negates/allows 'tactical' gameplay. The truth is a strafing game has all the tactics of a non-strafe game, and more.

People here are talking as if the existence of strafing allows one to ignore positioning, timing, cover et cetera, when the reality is that a high-strafe game expands the envelope of what is possible in the game and grows the 'library' of what choices a players has available in a given situation.

In a strafing game an experienced player who has made the effort to improve their technique may make the call that the best course of action is to break cover and engage in a strafe competition with one or more opponents. It's a judgement call: what are the fps skills of the opponents?

If the opponents are noobs or haven't made the effort to improve their gungame then the correct call would be to force their positions and put them off-balance. Strafing is one of the tools used to accomplish this in that situation.

If, however, one is facing seasoned players with a strong fps skillset then that strafing tactic is the wrong call. One does not simply hop out of cover and 'dance, dance' against Reg or Protoman. Other tactical choices are called for - one will only survive such an encounter by making a string of sound tactical decisions, and one will absolutely not survive the encounter without having put some serious effort/practice into developing one's gungame.

We need to lower the strafe speed of the fastest suits because of the technical limitations of CCP's code.

But the calls for removing strafe as a game design decision? Personally i feel it is a lessening of the game, restricting and simplifying the gameplay.

There is a clear difference between strafing and what this game has, wiggle wiggle
