[REQUEST] Changes to Ambush and Ambush OMS - new modes such as infantry only on ambush. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=63337&find=unread Update: This is being considered.
Yes! Didn't know why people were so against this...well the people besides the tank spamming leet players who farm kills on Ambush.
People who are looking for a quick gun on gun game mode, can finally do so without the fair of tank / LAV spamming. People arguing about it's too much like "CoD"... really? So CoD is the only game ever made that's infantry only? Plus it's another game mode, not THE ONLY GAME MODE.
You have a choice between Infantry only Ambush, or normal Ambush. Want to spam your tanks? Ambush. Want to get raped by tanks being followed by infantry? Ambush. Want gun on gun action, Infantry only Ambush.
It's a win win imo. I wish someone can tell me what's wrong with that. |

Nice now I can play a match without being spamed by a scattered Ion cannon yep now you can get spamed by noobtubes without worrying about getting spamed by scattered ion cannons. baby steps
rather noobtubes than tanks...at least I can shoot them without the need of changing kits. |

That feedback report thread is just to let people know that their ideas have been seen and not completely ignored. I wouldn't go holding your breath because even if it does happen, it won't be for a very very long time.
They implemented OMS pretty quickly imo. Why wouldn't they want to try out Infantry only game modes? This IS a beta after all, so testing out new stuff is what it's about.
I see your point, but you're not taking into consideration the importance of testing stuff out. It won't surprise me if it's in the new build coming up. |

knight of 6 wrote:my concern is that the non-infantry only ambush would just become one massive vehicle fest. tanks can't survive without infantry support. non-infantry only would die because anti-infantry tanks (blaster) wouldn't be able to make a profit anymore because they don't do AV well at all and would leave. without anti infantry tanks the prey would be gone for AV players and railgun tanks which would undoubtedly move on to greener pastures
step 1) what this means to infantry, is nothing less than the death of the tanker (it would lose it's profit, why would anyone do it?) step 2) a dramatic increase in the number of HMG heavies (all the forge gunners gotta do something) step 3) the death of AV. (why would you need it?) step 4) corp/district matches roll around the tankers wipe the cobwebs off their 60 tonne death machines, unchecked by AV the leviathans roll about the battlefields cutting down swaths of unprepared AP babes, frantically the AR and lazor babes find old fits with AV nades only to find out they are completely useless against the 7000 hitpoint monsters. the few forge gunners still active are swamped to the point they can't counter the tanks. step 5) people complain that tanks are op though they aren't, the soldiers are simply unprepared to fight them. step 6) CCP lays down the nerf hammer yet again on the poor tankers. hammering home the final nail in their coffin. tanks go the way of the large missile turret and slowly sink into uselessness.
vehicles are part of the game. i'd like to keep them a part. i think that rather than having infantry only maps. a wiser path would be maps poorly suited to tanking tight areas with lots of verticality to provide swarm and forge vantage points (not unlike the sky-fire battery map). and removing the bowl/crater shape that allows tank snipe
1- There's still Skirmish, and Ambush OMS. Being a drama queen about "the death of the tanker"...c'mon.
2- Heavies are a problem? looool...Last i checked, duvolles + dmg mods melts heavies faster then they even reach assault armor.
3- Drama queen again. Death of AV? Seriously? I have proto FG's and don't play Ambush. Again, there's Skirmish.
4- ???
5- Unprepared? Well there's no supply depots in Ambush, so yeah. Why do you think there's so few tanks in OMS. There's supply depots and installations to counter tanks.
6- Who's talking about nerfing tanks??? I don't think a single person in this thread mentions ANYTHING about nerfing tanks.
People are just asking for a infantry vs infantry game mode. This IS A FIRST PERSON SHOOTER, and correct me if I'm wrong but infantry vs infantry is the core mechanic of shooters. |

"game mode limitation"? You do realize nobody is suggesting to take out a game mode right? The point of this is give players a choice. Last time I checked, having more game modes = more things to do.
I still can't comprehend why people have a problem with adding another game mode just for infantry?!!... like... honestly, what's the big deal? |

I still can't comprehend why people have a problem with adding another game mode just for infantry?!!... like... honestly, what's the big deal? As others have said it sets a bad precedent, and a lot of people will end up playing it extensively and not see the need to invest in AV, right now getting stomped by a tank gives people good motivation to invest in AV. And stop complaining about having to die to switch to an AV fit, his tank is much more expensive than your suit. Besides it teaches players they have to be adaptable and be able to deal with different situations instead of pure infantry on infantry, what ccp need to do is improve the map designs, make them larger so we have more space to move around in and make area's where only infantry can access so people can have close range brawls they want.
No offense, but that argument is dumb. I have Proto FG and never play Ambush to learn I need it. I have Adv AV nades, never played Ambush to know I need it.
I had Swarm launchers lvl 2 while I was using militia assault suits. You're telling me, people NEED to play Ambush to learn they need AV?
I still think infantry players would benefit from infantry vs infantry servers. People against this are tankers, or people too lazy to hunt tanks on skirmish. |
