You people need to build tanks, cause your light posts are indestructible! They even damage my tank! Nothing like trying to get out of the fight and repair only to run in to a ******* rock solid light pole that apparently is made out of some really next level ****.
Get rid of light posts or make them (easily) destructible. This is stupid. |

Just because the guy on the other team is spamming light posts doesnt mean they are OP you idiot.
Some guy dies a couple times to a enemy using light posts and they immediaetly cry nerf on the forums, im sick of it.
Light posts are NOT OP, however i would like to see a limit on how many light posts each corporation can put on the field at one time, or increase the prices so commanders cant just call them in all day. |

I hate light posts. Sometimes, when I zoomed in on the sniper scope, I catch a vague figure in the corner of the screen. But no, it was just the head of the light post. |

The E3 video showed deployable turrets. Clearly what we need are deployable lamp posts. Just picture it, an army of deployment vehicles dropping posts all over.
Something else to consider...they might actually be futuristic anti-tank mines. They should be available for our equipment slot...just drop one in the middle of the road. The enemy drivers will never see it coming. Gotta give it a skill requirement equivalent to the power though. Mechanics 5 maybe. |

yeah, happens sometimes. i usually am trying all kinds of crazy fitting for my tanks so i can tell my corp what does and doesnt work...
i can honestly say that i have only dies three times to a militia swarm launcher in my surya:
#1 - surya fitted with three of those light chassis speed boost things...doesnt work
#2 - surya fitted with all shield stuffs(basically a sagaris fit on a surya).....doesnt work
#3 - ******* stole my tank when i switched into one of my turrets cause my gunner couldnt hit a dropship if it parked right in front of him and my railgun was overheated from firing at another tank and blowing it the **** up. he takes my driver seat, tells me i suck, them proceeds to get us killed and loses my 350k in about 20 seconds...
i remember each of those cause i was really pissed and laughing really hard.
there might have been a fourth time, but i can promise you i have never died to a militia swarm in my "best" fitting while i was driving...
go ahead, take your pick of any of those, cause one of em was definitely you then
edit: what i was trying to say is about 1/4 of all the times i die are from some idiot driving my tank into death when i switch to a turret real fast...guess what i dont do anymore if i dont have friends gunning for me lol |

I think the Crane is the father of the Lightpost.. I can be flying along in my dropship and fail to skim over that thing, and blam.. I'm tipped sideways and the thing doesn't even budge.

nothing so compilicated, Lowtech wins here, they are just a 0.001mm shell pipe made of neutronium.
lots of space for wiring inside, and very durable. perfect industrial design.
(well, assuming they are manufactured on site, as transporting them could be prolematic. But you could allways build them in space and then put the planet under them, that would probably be cheaper.)

You people make me f'ing crazy. ITS A BETA FFS!!!!!!!
Only 10% of the game is turned on, and balancing can't happen until we have everything in the game. So don't start whining about OP until that point.
The problem with the lamppost isn't it's tank(although that may very well need some tweaking later in the beta) - it's the arming timer. It's completely lore-breaking for lampposts to be instant-on, there should be at least a 3 second arming timer, that would fit the lore better and result in MUCH better gameplay.
The other fundamental design flaw is the universal, instant, lock-on. I mean, they interact with everything - troops, ground vehicles, air vehicles, weapons fire. And they do it INSTANTLY!!!!! As if CCP didn't know that wasn't going to be abused the kitten out of.
Honestly, I don't know how CCP let this one slip by them, it's as if some hapless level designer dorpped in a Jovian lamppost by accident.
OK, now that I've got that off my chest I just want to stress that I'm not complaining CCP, I'm just trying to do my part as a beta tester. You folks are doing a bang-up job with DUST.
And one last point to the elite FPS'ers here - this is New Eden, so stop complaining and HTFU! She's a dark, beautiful universe and and your boy-rage can never change her, so learn to ADAPT or you will surely DIE.
AND......to those of you who can't let go of their lampost rage - remember that not every asset is in-game yet. With CCP every tactic has a counter, and we haven't yet had the opportunity to play with the lampost's natural counter....
...the speedbump.
