People seem to like forgetting these suits are meant to be heavily armored tanky exoskeletons with a semi exception for the scout.

Freerunning would not only be ridiculous in this, but also redundant. People would just grenade your ass.

...render it useless unless u rolled behind cover.

...sounds cool but only if it took massive stamina.

face facts u just cant dodge bullets

Well if I can jump in them as high as I can now there should be no reason why I can't do an aerial, or most other free runing stunts for that mater.



This makes no sense to me what-so-ever.

Still would not make a bit of difference, if you where upside down, running on a wall or do high aerials against someone with good aim, it would however let you be totally invincible against scrubs.

Personally, idd just shoot you between the eyes mid cartwheel, shrug and move on.

Just guessing here, but sounds like you need some extra mechanic to save your *ss, just get better it helps.

Arrogance and hubris, such childishness is not nessesary. Thank you for your input, but I would just as soon do without it.

Then don't ask for a mechanic that will make you dodge bullets artificially without the need to do it yourself.

To do it myself? How is that even posible in a video game? Please stop, your just imbarassing yourself now, and I'm starting to feel bad for you.

Also, I would like to hear from anyone who thinks that this is a terrible idea and why.

Ohhh i am so embarrassed on a forum on the internets..... you know full well that 90% of the players out there already have issues with scout suit tracking, thats why at some point in beta they lowered the movement rate of the suit, because people could not track them properly.

The suit is made for infiltration stealth and in general not to get detected, if you get detected its game over, not for matrix style evasion with Neo at the controls. Gunz The Game --> that way...



all i did was point out how a terribad idea it was because you asked for it.

Just to make sure I understand the OP - You through an idea out there. That idea is horrible. People told you the idea is horrible. Your feewing got butt hurt on the internet.

Yeah... you should do just fine in New Eden...

Lol, man the world is full of them.

Arrogance and hubris, such childishness is not nessesary. Thank you for your input, but I would just as soon do without it.

Mirrors Edge 514?.. Add it!

Full of people that realize trying to turn Dust into Assassin's Creed/Dishonored is a terrible idea that would only occur to people who have no idea how video game development works and/or are so bad at playing that they need superpowers to stop getting owned?

Yep. The world is full of people just like that.

Seriously, you are a SCOUT, you now what scouts do? The sit in their hills and try to give support to their team, look where the enemy moves and maybe take out some and try to defend our Null-Cannons.
And you know what scouts don't do? Run around in CC and kill a shitload of people. Scouts are glascannons, they deal pretty much dmg, but also don't have much health..

No you were attempting to insult the idea and me as well, in so many words, calling me a scrub, without knowing anything about me, as opossed to offering constructive criticism. In fact you're still doing it.

The fact that scouts are well suited for infiltration does not meant that this is the only role on the battle field they should play. Some people like to be tough others like to be agile, and I happen to fall into the latter category.

90% of players, really. Sounds like QQ to me, and I've been playing for quite a while now.

The fact is that it should be difficult to kill a scout, and that difficulty should be based around how agile a scout suit is compounded by player skill. Simply because a few geniuses can completely own people with them is not a fair gauge for level of affective agility to set the scout suit at for the common player. And this is going to be the case for any suit class/weapon.

Arrogance IS hubris!!

constructive or not, its a bad idea for 'this' game.



Scouts are well Scouts! Well damn ...a scout suit is a assault suit stripped from its armor plates, specialized for scouting, be it infiltration or elimination, its not designed for head on evasion jumping....if you use it to go head on into a bunch, prepare to die...



You should check the scoreboards after a game sometime, usually its 4-6 people in the positive, rest all deep in negative KDR.



You should make it the enemy more difficult to kill you by using your speed, not by trying to dance around him doing body flips, if you make the scout suit godlike for evading for the common player, guess what the geniuses are gonna do with it?

I wouldn't just shoot you between the eyes when you are doing a cartwheel of a wall, idd be doing it mid-flight in my own cartwheel dropping down from a container stacked 4 stories high with a sniper rifle :p

Seriously though it would just give a whole lot of power to people who can do that stuff right now with the scout suit.

Just look at this clip Here

Just me playing some Jump Sniping as you can see the movement players have in APB R is faster then a scout suit in Dust and you cannot run out of stamina and regardless of them using automatic weapons, they still get killed by 2 rounds to the face with a 1.5s re-chamber interval while their weapon has a Time to kill of 0.75s-1s if they hit their rounds i would be long dead up close with a sniper rifle halfway trough re-chambering.

Its also the reason i get Hackused about 5-8 times per evening on there but thats for another topic...
Just imagine a scout, doing a wallwalk then jumps aims and headshots you while dodging bullets.....cool in APB R, not cool in Dust 541, one guy capable of pulling it off is all that's needed to ruin the match.

I haven't sniped yet in this game, but once i get to it skillwise, its gonna be fun.

Not entirely true imo. A shotty scout with a decent amount of SP specd into profile dampening and mobility/vigor and the like could be quite deadly up front . Just takes a certain kind of player to be able to plan all your moves in a very stealthy way and be in and out in a jiffy and catch a few bodies on the way. Ive seen it done quite a bit. Also couldnt hurt to dabble with a little shield tanking too just in case you do get caught out to give yourself a couple extra seconds of survivability.
