He ran boosters 24/7 so he had proto before most of the playerbase. bit once the playerbase caught up, he realised he actually sucked and left.
When i was in my Cal scout i had about 7 pure 1v1's with him and they would last about a minute, he was in a cal assault. They where probably the best 1v1's ive had cos we thought so alike.
Beta vets have to be adaptable because of all of the updates, this means they are very good at everything, whereas newer 'Legends' are usually 1 playstyle.
I used to be a Tanker so i wasnt really recognised tbh. VAYU Enforcer Pilot 4 Life!
Exactly what he said, New legends tend to stick with one fit and dont have as broad of a playing strategy where as older vets/legends are seen in every fit playing all styles, types and strategies.
Aside from the obvious experience advantage vets also had more sp and gear than other players... I don't think they would get those same results during this era of dust. we have respecs and we have the same **** they do just because they have been around longer doesn't mean they are "better" it simply means they had more advantages. also I've heard so many stories of horrendously over powered gear during their era that anyone who didn't know what was going on would be outgunned and out geared. This game is a lot more balanced so choose your weapon and come get your ass handed to you by the new age dusters....
I am not a beta vet I came late at the end of 1.8 but I have come across some "legends" and have given them ass whoopins heck I even went 30/1 vs the "melee legend" Romulus with melee! so no you "legends" aren't **** in my opinion you were just here when there was a plethora of noobs to stomp with no match making and no weapon balance congrats come back to dust and watch as your ratio plummets lmfao
You expect beta vets to believe that this game suddenly has no noobs in it to farm? That it's actually balanced now? Funny, first page of the forums (and friends of mine that still play) show that people believe otherwise. You can't expect old beta players to come back to a dead game just to prove that they were good at it lol.
I've seen this play out on 3-4 games before this one. The game releases, it's in it's prime, highest playercounts, people get competitive and have clan vs clan battles. People build reps for being good at it, they eventually get bored or fed up of the game and leave. A year or two later all of a sudden those who couldn't compete at the time can now start to rise up because of the lack of competition, grow and ego and challenge those who have already moved on and try to belittle their reputations.
Honestly, you just seem salty to me. If you want to go prove something to them then go play planetside 2 where a decent amount of them are and hunt them down lol.
And... who's Romulus? You do well against a "legend" (a melee one at that? that's a thing?) and suddenly you're a top dog?
Yeah okay, same song and dance, same old crap as the last couple of games. Enjoy playing at the bottom of the toilet bowl.
I just had to reply because your post seemed so ridiculous lol, acting like Dust is all of a sudden full of so much skill. Now back to Dragon Age.
