The solution really is an easy one for all those that want Infantry only. Same for those demanding ballet bullet evasion capability. Play the games that already cater to those play styles, don't try to browbeat CCP into giving you an option that isn't needed because it's already covered by so many other games. Not having Ballet Bullet Evasion isn't going to break Dust. Learning to deal with Vehicle elements isn't hard.
Suppose Infantry only was actually provided. The next thing that would be griped about would be heavies forge sniping. Then we'd have threads QQing for no FG in Ambush IO. Next would be QQ for no heavies in Ambush IO. And it'd keep going until the Ambush IO mode would actually be Ambush IO allowing only Assault and Scout suits, weapons of AR class or lower, and locus grenades so the CoD, and it's clones, players would be in their accustomed environment.
What it seems to be coming down to is small groups of players wanting limited option game modes, catering to their play styles, because they are either too lazy, unable, or just unwilling, to learn how to deal with a game element outside of their comfort zone.
In the end, if one doesn't like the differences, then don't play Dust. No-body's forcing anyone to stick around. |

Infantry vs infantry is NOT the core game play. The core game play is the conflict.
The reason CoD is brought up so often is that it's usually a bunch of CoD fanboys/fangirls that want infantry only because that's their comfort zone and they don't feel that any game should force them to play outside that comfort zone. |

He knows how one sided it gets. Newberries have no chance, and have no supply depots to even get that chance if they knew what to do. Experienced players are punished for coming into a firefight with anti infantry weapons when someone pulls out a tank and there are no supply depots.
Either make vanilla IO or start streaming supply depot installations for deployment so we can defend ourselves.
Keep it up Mavado. *tips hat*

I'm not a tank driver by any means, but vehicles are part of the game. Have I been on a side that got tank rolled? Yes I have. But at least I am willing to accept that and bring in the AV on my next spawn. |

You see, when I started playing dust, I speced into more infantry-sentric roles, never believing that an entire team could be completely and utterly obliterated by one or two guys in tanks. Now its too late, and i'm stuck with my militia swarm launcher.
Militia SWARMs are better than nothing and there's always making a fit with AV or flux grenades. Bringing in the AV option doesn't mean you have to take on the role all by yourself. Every little bit helps even if you're only role in taking down a tank was to soften it up a bit. |
