If i remember correctly Singularity is a single cluster that doesn't different people by location.
i.e. theres no US/EU servers, theres one single server for everyone.
Also if you play at EU night, its most likely you get people from US timezone.

Wrong. There's US/EU battleservers. Australian as well, not sure about Asian.

Is there any ccp post or news topic?
I always though its a single server for DUST too.

Everyone connects to the same server, Singularity, but there are different battleservers.

To answer your question of why? A legitimate reason: it's all they're really specced for so that's how they make their isk, it just so usually happens that the people who choose to make a living doing this get fairly good at it.

The less legitimate but no less accurate answer: because they're stat padding scrubs.

Case by case basis you can usually tell which is which.

So for some reason I've recently been getting games on the American server and quite frankly it's in a pitiful state. Nearly everyone is either a tank driver, a dropship pilot/gunner or running an assault suit with an AR. Why doesn't anyone use anything else?

I would also like to say- why does everyone call in vehicles in ambush? On the AU server ambush was usually for infantry fights and skirmish was where people used vehicles. All of yougo on about how good you are, so why don't you use vehicles in skirmish where it's more challenging?

I'm not saying you can't use vehicles...

...I'm just saying if your so good then use them in skirmish where people can use turrets and actually come close to destroying you.

CCP please stop giving me US games as they aren't anywhere near as fun as AU games are.

I guessed you missed the part where some people headshot snipe you from across the map, gun you down with a HMG at close quarters while watching your squadmate get pwned by the Heavy's Scout buddy with a shotgun, or Free Healing's Logi suit behind you when he revived you, repaired you, and rearmed you. Or my personal favorite, calling in an LAV and using it's super stealth sneaky-sneak motor to run you over from behind.

Ok, so let's not use vehicles.

Wait...

Run in a squad, not a pre-determined one that the matchmaking gives you, but a squad of people you can talk too. Vehicles go down pretty quick with 4 forge guns.

I understand that if that's what people spec into then that's what they'll want to use and I can respect that. I am speccing into tanks as a more of a side project to use for fun every now and then. But I have some friends in my corp that have sagaris's and still play infantry. I don't know why they have to bring vehicles to ambush when they're obviously going to slaughter everyone because there's no easy way to become organised in it.

I guess I just expected that the type of people attracted to this game would also be attracted to challenges. I find it much more fun to gamble my expensive stuff in tough matches and getting that thrill when you charge into a group of enemies breaking through their lines, coming close to death but being saved by your friends in your corp.

Well at least not everyone does it. Had some fun duels against you in my heavy and I can honestly say the few matches I had against you were some of the best I've had. You probably didn't see me but they were fun nonetheless. Anyway after a few games I started finding more enjoyable ones, but as they say a first impression is everything and this one left a bad taste in my mouth.

As stated earlier, we are just breaking things for the betterment of DUST. Put it this way; better to find something like this problem now than later on when the game is released. That way, CCP can try to balance it further.
