I have never seen anyone but a sniper camping in this game. Fights are not decided based on equipment. The kind of hyperbole and doomsaying you people engage in to build a case for more Halo-like gameplay is silly. Accept the fact that this simply comes down to preference, and that lower strafe speed doesn't mean the game no longer involves skill or nonsense like that. Dust is in a good place right now as far as strafing goes. It would be a shame if the vocal minority were to ruin that. You must have never played Halo 1 for the Xbox. When you ADS you can't really strafe and to be honest the strafing here is pretty much the same as it was with Halo 1. Now equipment doesn't decide a fight? Tell that to my Assault A Series, GEK Assault Rifle, Complex Damage Mods and Armor Rep. I'm able to drop players with no problem doesn't matter if it's a Heavy, Scout, Assault. Without strafing unnerfed, it makes the game have a lack feature in the gun game area.

Playing a heavy we have no straife speed so we adapted by using cover. This is how it should be makes it much more tactile than running straight at someone and expecting your dance moves to be the deciding factor. This makes your aiming skills much more important. And you already have auto aim available. So I really don't get this complaint. Get good! Who the hell uses AA? Also saying get good when players had to ask the Devs to nerf something because they couldn't get good. Lol, show so much skill already for those that needed the Devs to hold their hands.

I guess if you ever meet someone with the exact same gear as you, the fight always ends in both of you dying simultaneously? I understand that you prefer faster strafing, but you need to understand that making up bullshit like what you wrote there doesn't help your side of the discussion. Everyone knows you're full of **** in asserting that you will always win a fight against someone with inferior gear than you have, because we've actually played Dust. No gun game wins gun fights but this game is lacking a major feature that add gun game, strafing. I'm not going to lie, I've been killed in my advance loadout a good amount of time. You can tell those that have good gun game and those that lack it. Sadly, a lot of players lack gun game in this game. Those with good gun game can take out anyone in any gear but if you give them advance gear, they'll wreck you in game. Strafing adds to the gun game factor and the survivability factor also. Again though, those that wanted to have a nerf on strafing lack the gun game and needed a Dev to hold their hand.

You don't have any idea what you're talking about. You must be one of those people that QQ'd about strafing players so you cried to the Devs right? Those with gun game can strafe and shoot at the same time and counter strafe and shoot at the same time. Those that lack skill in FPS games need someone or something to give them a edge. With that said, the nerf was highly unneeded and anyone that is good at FPS games know that.
