One of the most immersive aspects of Dust was piloting vehicles. It was a change of pace from foot soldiering and it added context. The various flavors of dropships, tanks, HAVs and jeeps were a novelty.
If I imagine Dust without vehicles, then I sense that a great deal of depth would have been lost to a drab motionless wasteland.
I hope that Nova will be equipped with vehicles on its inaugural day. Without vehicles, the game will be a step back into a flatter dimension; a world without perspective, dreams, or redemption.
There was nothing like being pinned down, and then a buddy's dropship comes swooping in for the rescue, or getting stuck out in the open and behold a random blueberry tank rolls in between you and the enemy to provide cover.
Vehicles are more than something to drive around or something different to do. They're a different form of immersive interaction with other players, opening the door to new possibilities and stimulating complexities. They are an essential element to the emotional entanglement of war. Without them, the battlefield can be a rather dull experience. |

100% agree despite only using militia soma's when they were OP
I bought a setup a month ago to start practicing with mouse and keyboard but if they announce this games more like COD than BF then I won't even bother playing it and will stick to console.

The head developer already said months ago that they were focusing on bringing the Dust experience to a wider audience by implementing ideas from mainstream shooters. He also said he wanted to scale down combat.

Should I interpret that to mean that CCP captured a certain niche with Dust 514, but now they are abandoning those unique elements that made the game special in their next iteration of the EVE FPS franchise, so that they can attempt to fit in with the big boys? Does this imply no vehicles? |

Thinking about dropsuits, CCP has often hinted at cybernetics beyond mere brain implants in EVE by showing cosmetics such as cybernetic arms. Therefore, in EVE's universe, all a merc really needs is a head to operate their dropsuit (like Futurama ). Without a human body to limit dropsuit design, dropsuits would really be mechs with limitless design freedom and destructive potential. But that would just be crazy, right? Better to just stick with the basics. CCP wants Nova to be more mainstream after all.

This is why Rattati also confirmed that fitting will most likely be simplified and therefore easier. This is precisely to attract more casual players who are not interested in the mechanics of fittings.
Rattati recently confirmed that making the game more user friendly does factor into its development.

I don't think they can afford to be 'safe' with Nova, they're not EA releasing another battlefield, they've got a tightrope to walk in making it accessible but retaining the depth of gameplay (that has kept us posting on the forums of a dead game for over a year)

At first I was adored with tanks. I played them until the end. But it was the Incubus that made me realize : this is the best this game can offer (for me ofc) . Playing only on foot will make me miss the sky even more.
About the washed down fitting they want to make, I just hope it won't be something like : choose one of these few modules times x, done. No you can't use this, it would be too zany

I'll be honest I really didn't tank, and I could get to a roof top if I needed to in a ds. But realizing a new game without them seems dull and boring. Plus I need them to shoot the forge at!!
When in doubt pull the forge out!! But we are all dead so who cares!

I think it's rude to talk about how vehicles made everything better, and how much you enjoyed vehicles, and how lacking the new game will feel without vehicles, when they pretty much confirmed vehicles wont be in it.
Let's say you are a dev. You see this threat. How would you feel? No matter how good the game you are making is, it wont be good enough because it doesn't have x. I'd rather enter the forums and read threads discussing things that will be in the game.

Tough love, bro ... tough love. Sometimes people need to hear something that they don't want to. It might be difficult for me to push this info on them, knowing the fear and upset that they must feel, but ultimately getting this out in the open will help all of us in the long run.

And no where in "freedom of speech" does it say your speech is free of consequences. Like people saying your idea is bad.
You are contradicting your position by saying someone should shut up because they disagree and you have a right to your opinion. Of course, this might be entirely over your head.

There's a difference between "You shouldnt be allowed to say that" and "You shouldnt say that." The former goes against freedom of speech, and the latter does not.
You are free to talk about vehicles all you want, what I'm saying is that you should not do it saying that them not being in the game from day 1 is a deal-breaker for you, and that you hope they will be.
"Hey CCP I'm off because you are not including vehicles in the game" --> Ok "Hey CCP if you dont include vehicles in the game I'm off" --> Not Ok
The first idea acknowledges what the devs have said, (that there will be no vehicles in the game for a long time, if ever,) and therefore it's a respectful way to give your opinion. The second idea ignores what the devs have stated, and therefore it is a rude way to give your opinion.
(And I did mean to say thread instead of threat)

Take a lesson from Captain Jack Sparrow, lad. "The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do." What a man should or shouldn't do only depends on the degree to which he conforms to a given social context.
I'm just telling them how it really is, and I'm only one person, so I doubt that they will shed a single tear over my position.
"Hey CCP if you do anything less that what Dust 514 did, then you are moving in a backward direction, and I most likely won't even pay attention to the release date of Nova, let alone play it." --> Okay by me. Stated by me. Approved by me. |

While I agree with the idea behind this, that is to say, I dont believe in good and evil, keep this in mind: The Islamic State didn't do anything wrong, by our standards. What they did, they could do, right? Isn't that all that matters? The world is out to get them because they are going against our idea of how someone should behave. Thinking about what you should and shouldn't do is important as well.
I told you why I think you shouldn't say that, whether you agree with me or not is up to you, that's your freedom.

I see. You're saying that from a moral standpoint, if I want to avoid the shock, aversion and disapproval of others which could karmically turn back to harm me, then I would do well to consider the feelings of those around me before I speak, thereby exercising courtesy, diplomacy and salutary intent.
I absolutely agree in any other environment. These forums are a very special place where the bittervets lurk.
And so, I leave you in peace, having heard and understood, but not heeded your message. I wish you well, my fellow humanitarian. |

You can talk about it all you want, but I think you're talking about it way too early. I would at least wait until AFTER they let people start alpha or beta testing Project Nova so that we can have an idea on how to base vehicle mechanics on and how to balance them. A little hard to imagine how a painting should look if we don't know what kind of paint we'll be able to use.

Ratatti has never been a fan of vehicles so at best we will be looking at a year or two post release before we might see a dumbed down power up version appear. None of the maps will likely ever support vehicles so all new maps will need to be made, along with all new game modes for them
Simple truth is vehicle users arent welcome in Nova for the foreseeable future. Unless you listen to Sean Spicer, then theres so much vehicles

You are saying that it's rude to expect that the spiritual successor to Dust514 would have something in it that draw a lot of us to the game in the first place?
It's a bit like saying that customers would be rude to complain if McDonald's switched from burgers and stuff to exclusively selling pizzas, or exclusively selling veggie food. Or customers would be rude complaining if EA killed off their BF franchise and replaced it something similar to CoD, or vice versa.
If you have established a certain kind of audience for years, I think it's rude to do away with that and start appealing to a whole new kind or audience unless you REALLY have no choice in the matter.
