Now it's jeeps, tanks and snipers... Snipers will eventually have no one to shoot. Jeeps will become redundant and turn into dropships or tanks. In a week or two we will be back to tank wars. The biggest problem now though is AV is even worse than last build.... Welcome to tank wars take two people. |

Did you try to use new AV grenades? AV grenades are really easy and efficient to use. I easily killed HAV once by just pressing my "grenade" button three times. It's such a joy to blow up 1kk HAV . |

Yeah, I noticed yesterday that your ability to skip around in a tank was kinda limited!!
But your still good at making those LAV's leap about like h0rny bullfr0gs!! |

I've actually noticed it hard to pin down whats going on on the battlefield. There are certainly more scout snipers but they tend to die fast/get fed up and go back to being assault guys. Mainly because the pre-precursor snipers would rather shoot them than try to deal with annoying jerky moving targets.
What I have noticed is an increase in combat snipers. Assault guys with Sniper rifles and SMGs, so they can get in a brawl while doing the sniper thing if they have to. I like to call it the "Tau Fire Warrior" build.
There is definitely less vehicles, but I think thats got to do with non-infinate and expensive militia vehicles and the very expensive top tier vehicles. Im sad I can't spam drop ships to get into good perches :( |

Yea I think thats cos the LAV Has Scout DNA in it. I really dont know why I'm fighting it , think its mostly cos of all the 2scout is OP whine" so now I'm HAV and Fatsuit.
I'm rubbish at em both lolz.
Edit: @ BLENDEDDAVE WARRIORS sorry I had too shoot u cos you had a swarm launcher pointed at me. |

so far dropships fall from the skies like bricks from militia swarm launchers. so do all the other militia stuff. would love to see them vehicles survive longer making peeps go for more av to balance up again. Its an arms race untill many people get skilled up properly. |

Sadly how many people do you think will carry on playing this game. They will sign up for what they think is a mmofps get continually slaughtered every game going maybe 1 for 10 before they even figure out how things work on the game and be quitting in droves. I and my friends are quitting so many instant TDM's with tanks or when we know there will be tanks, and this build has only been live for a few days. I don't blame the tankers, snipers etc, it's the way the game, maps, etc. are pushing people to play, well people who want world of tanks anyway. 4 man squads make it harder still as you need at least a whole squad trying to deal with the one man army, even then the odds are with the tank. Unbalanced, yes indeed. mmofps, no not at all.
EDIT... It's cool sha, there were 4 of us trying to kill your tank. We failed. |

HAV's have to stay 300m or further from anyone or die to AV nades. Dropships, well, they're a transport. I think I've been killed once or twice. Swarmer > Dropship. When you say AV got worse, it's only the range on the forgegun I can see was nerfed.
Jeeps are great. Jeeps are free. Jeeps explode in 1 shot from a swarm or forge. They provide you with speed at the cost of durability. Where is the militia nanofibre...
Snipers are the problem IMHO. I wouldn't mind if they could get a decent number of kills. But they can't. I'm waiting to see a good sniper on Dust. Not seen any hit 50 kills. Snipers are wastes of space. Notice they always lose objective games. |

LOL... There are so many snipers because everyone is fed up trying to run anywhere and then getting continually murdered by tanks and other snipers. |

Come on man you guys had one bad game chill out. If it makes you feel anybetter It takes me 6 good games to replace that tank and I'm constantly broke I cant buy basic skillbooks.
AV Nades are epic win try using them and lol dropships aint even a threat. Well unless its taking a sniper to the tower tops |

I can't play a lot due to having a real life, but I play 1-5 games a day. I would have noticed people getting 50 kills in any role. I've never seen it in this build yet. I saw it in the last build but those guys where tank drivers.

No tears here sha, and i can see why you have gone tank. we don't cry over games we no longer play. We have backed out more than we have joined. Not one of us has done tanks, ( yes I know, we are stupid. ) we really did believe this was going to be an mmofps, my bad, our mistake. |

Yup, we sure do. We are not that supid, if you wanna go 1 for 10, 1for 20 every game go ahead. We are FPS players. I will say again for the hard of hearing. We are fps players, this game is NOT an FPS. |

Like I said mate it's fine, you are the sensible one. You are a good player who obviously can FPS with the best, shame this aint an fps which is why you now drive a tank too. |

Icey didnt see any snipers get 50 last build. 50+ was quite easily possible as infantry too (did it myself 53-1). I've yet to see one come top of the table this build. Tbqh, sniping is not efficient with random spawning. (don't know which routes to cover). With 4000 maps, sniping is a waste of time.
I haven't seen a sniper get 10 kills this build Icey. 50 was simply a standard which people currently do not meet. |

Well this build i would say it's impossible to get that many kills being a sniper, the reason is because normally now more than half you team are also sniping. lol.
The answer is obvious for goodness sake... Go tank. |

I know the big tanks are not on the field yet, but I blew up a tank with two shots from my advanced swarm launcher, so I do not think tanks own the field yet. I'll reserve my judgement though to see how much they nerf the swarm launcher range. Right now it is easy mode, and it does lock on from too far away, but I hope it has a decent range when they are done. |

Good for you... Come back in a week or two and we'll see if you've had an attitude adjustment. |

Hehe, so funny to see Sha in a tank! He has hated them since day one! Ah well, when in Rome, do as the Romans do!
Just wanted to make a couple of points tho, there are a few elements to the game that we do not yet have access to in the Beta, they are Webs and EW which will both have a significant impact on AV. In a further point, this game is clearly designed to be played by co-ordinated teams with different squads or players fulfilling different roles in the defeat of HAV's, something I know works as my corps have done this using different tactics to varying levels of success but all lots of fun and satisfying to pull off. Anyway, dont write off Dust as unbalanced yet, we are in Beta and are handicapped as foot soldiers as we dont have all the weapons in our eventual armoury available to us now, I will be the first to cheer wildly when they are as I will never bother skilling for tanks as I cant drive the bloody things! lol |

Coordinated teams ? 4 man squad with 14 other no mic'd randoms, you mean that team. lol.
your corps ? In eve I take it ?
4 man squads, squads can't group = NO TEAM. Maybe this is to come ? It would be nice to know. Don't get me started about comms. |

That funny because Ive been in a few games with you and Ive never seen you with "amazon" K/D ratios. Maybe it was just bad games for you, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
IMHO sniping in Dust isn't about getting kills, its about area denial. Snipers aren't meant to randomly kill everyone if you do you increase the chance of getting lynched. A sniper victory isn't a high kill death ratio. A sniper victory is one sniper holding down an objective an entire game. because he kills anyone that gets close. Or killing the crew of a tank who keeps bailing in order to capture an objective. Or killing three guys that got the drop on one of your guys because they are too distracted to notice that they are taking massive chunks out of their health, sure the sniper might only get assist kills but he's still helping out.
Heres a question for you;
Who is more valuable in an ambush team:
a) 5 assault guys with 3/6, 3/4, 1/8 and 4/9.
Or
b) one sniper who gets 15/0. (K/D) |

Nope, Seraphim initiative is a Dust corp and we were pulling these tactics off before this build and 4 man groups and 3rd party comms simplifies things for us in this build. This game sucks for lone wolfs I'm sure but working in teams is real rewarding |

so you dont like the idea of squads being able to group up so you can have a whole team of your mates/clan/corp on the same game /map at the same time this is what I want how about you You cannot work in teams...... (YET) SOONtm. Maybe. |

I'm lost............. Grouping as it is, is you and 3 friends...... that is a pathetic number for a squad a far far from any kind of team. |

We love the idea and are gutted it wasn't fully enabled for this build but we work with what we've got and get as many squads as we can in one side as often as poss. We know better grouping will come in full game so not gonna hold it against Beta for not having it yet........it's frustrating yes, but it's Beta |

I've yet to see one come top of the table this build. Tbqh, sniping is not efficient with random spawning. (don't know which routes to cover). With 4000 maps, sniping is a waste of time.
I haven't seen a sniper get 10 kills this build Icey. 50 was simply a standard which people currently do not meet. That funny because Ive been in a few games with you and Ive never seen you with "amazon" K/D ratios. Maybe it was just bad games for you, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. IMHO sniping in Dust isn't about getting kills, its about area denial. Snipers aren't meant to randomly kill everyone if you do you increase the chance of getting lynched. A sniper victory isn't a high kill death ratio. A sniper victory is one sniper holding down an objective an entire game. because he kills anyone that gets close. Or killing the crew of a tank who keeps bailing in order to capture an objective. Or killing three guys that got the drop on one of your guys because they are too distracted to notice that they are taking massive chunks out of their health, sure the sniper might only get assist kills but he's still helping out. Heres a question for you; Who is more valuable in an ambush team: a) 5 assault guys with 3/6, 3/4, 1/8 and 4/9. Or b) one sniper who gets 15/0. (K/D)
This^^
And l just got out of a game where l got 10 kills, granted l believe l went 10/7...but l took out Assault, Snipers, guys manning a Jeep Turret, many many assists...all the while holding down A...and placing Spawn points where needed.
As for 50+ kills......l think lve seen that maybe twice in 3 months of testing[usually someone in a Tank]. Sniper wise, a guy by the name of Night Eyes[or something like that], lve seen get 20+ kills several times.
Mode wise, l think Sniping is way better aid for a Skirmish team then Ambush[hate Biomass, Plateus not as bad]. |

The real question Icey, is who is more valuable. 15-0 assault or 15-0 sniper. If the assault guy has a hive/injector, clearly he wins because he'll support his team. If the sniper drops an uplink, I'd kill him myself. No uplinks pls in ambush...
I agree having a sniper watching a hack point works. But it's mind numbingly dull. In an important game it's worthy. Until you don't one hit them... and they come kill you.
And yes I am sucking badly this build. I can't earn any SP. I can't seem to find a fit which I like because of that. Which means I get less SP again, until I get the shotty out. Then things go fine. Oh and the first bloody game I joined people already had HMG's so it's been an uphill struggle. I'm still getting top spot in about half my games.
Oh and that's probably night-times. Most prolific sniper on MAG. Only rivals were the illnitsky's and coppatop. Nighttimes used to average around 100-1 from what I remember. That's a worthwhile sniper. |

@ Tony...
You obviously play alone too much as DU's are almost a neccesity in ambush, unless of course you like being spawned in the middle of nowhere or worse in the middle of six red dots. |

You know what I do when I find an enemy uplink? Unlike the fools who blow them up, I camp them. Spawn campin lie that is a fully legit mechanic. The problem is you can't spawn elsewhere. And yeah I am pretty much playing solo. Makes you better :D
I just hate the idea of being force to spawn 10-20 times knowing I have a fatsuit HMG watching. Feels too much like spawning back in Replication :-s
I like playing alone, the game is harder an more frustrating :D I like playing in a group too, but currently with the game not saying who's on, in game, w8ing or whatever, I just cba to group. |
