"Dust is a game where things don't just spawn out of no where" this isn't necessarily true where do all the items from the market come from? Where does the ammo in our guns and vehicles come from? I think one way to add another layer of realism to Dust and keep the game complicated and diverse is to make it so mercenaries have to buy their own ammo. Ammo would get it's own section on the market and would range from militia, low grade, to high grade. Skills for ammo would be met with weapon skills so for example. Skilling into assault rifle operation would unlock assault rifle ammo the higher you skilled into assault rifle operation the better ammo you would unlock a long with prototype weapons. This would give players a extra boost for their weapons if they were willing to pay the extra price for ammo. Very standard ammo would be supplied to all weapons for free like the free suits and LAVs we are given.
Ammo types could range from small to large for turret ammo sizes as there are only two turret sizes. However the meta for each ammo type could range quite significantly. As a way to not run completely out of ammo in game nanohives and supply depos would return the ammo type used by your suit/gun in any game. This means when you run out of your high grade ammo in a game nanohives would not return standard ammo and you would not have to repay for more high grade ammo this would be applied per suit.
If the dust system of ammo was used in eve you would see players equipping guns and going out and shooting, this as you can see makes absolutely no sense. In real life and in EVE, guns require ammo the same should be said for Dust I like challenging Dust players. Watching the new players equip their standard free ammo and the more advanced players equip their high damage ammo would be nice to watch. |

Very good post but who even manufactures all the items they have to be manufactured distributed then taken, used, retaken, destroyed, repaired so on so on. As far as I can see it they are just made from thin air for example some one had to have made those nano hives I guess the factions made them but I think quite a bit of it is just imaginative and we are told it has happened. There is no actual system to create it though it's just left up to our minds. |

I'm looking forward to having more ammo types in the future though. Imagine an HMG with emp rounds. They already exist in eve, so i'd expect to be able to have a similar option in Dust.
