We better not experience 48 player games on the current Manus Peak ambush bowl, or any of the claustrophobic ambush maps for that matter. |

This video also references what was noticed in the Open Beta trailer, that heavy weapons may not be restricted to the heavy class for long. The guy in the video mentions how you can make a scout with a heavy weapon, and in the trailer we saw both an assault class with a forge gun, and a redesigned dropsuit fittings screen, which had an assault starter suit with an H, M, and L weapon slot, as well as no grenade slot.
The video also specifically mentions using AUR to customize your dropsuit visually. |

We are getting variant suits. We could get a assault with heavy weapon but less speed and no equipment, or a heavy suit with speed buff and 2 light and equipment slot at some point. They may be suits that need both heavy and assault skills trained, hard to say without more info, it could be balanced fine or not. There could also be a weaker light forge gun the assault was using. |

The dropsuit fitting listed the starter assault suit as having an H, M, and L weapon slot. The AR was in the H slot, the pistol was in the M slot. I guess L slot would be for... grenades? Nova knives? Something else?
In any case, the trailer plus the CCP guy in the recent video specifically saying you can be a scout using a heavy weapon suggests they are making weapons/suits less restrictive and more open to players tweaking with them. That is supported by the fact that the starter suit also had extra slots -- one extra equipment, one extra low slot -- but did not have increased PG/CPU. In other words, you could fit a wider array of things on a given suit, but with the same CPU/PG, you couldn't make it more powerful necessarily. |

Awesome news, aside from the fact that Dust 514 has the smallest FPS MMO maps in history. |

Dust is very loosely an MMO. It's only an MMO in the sense that we're all apparently fighting on planets that are in the same universe. In practice it's a persistent multiplayer shooter, though. An actual MMOFPS, like Planetside, has hundreds of people engaged in battle concurrently. So by necessity it requires big maps, which it has, at 8x8 km in size. Still, Dust having maps which are 5x5 km will be fairly impressive. I suspect once they fix the frame rate issues up a bit more they'll start upping the scale of things to follow. |

Its the only FPS MMO. But CoD maps are much smaller. |

Well the thing is they may continue to test max size.
We may very well one day see the same sort of battles protrayed in the videos. |

I believe that sometimes when people join a battle solo, a single 6 man squad is created (usually its squad 0). It's a weird glitch and I haven't see whether it makes it easier to call down OBs.. But thats because its filled with LOLblueberries |
