mass driver not CQC weapon?

450% scrambler pistol headshot foolishness

Mass driver users can pound away at you with little risk to themselves even with them having no shields & you being close enough to kiss them.

agree that basic stuff like voicechat on, headshot mod have to be fixed or CPM waste of time IMO.

agree that game needs proximity and battlefield hierarchy too.

no way assault suits should have more than 300 shields either.

I really hope this group is not a powerless figurehead but I have been gaming long enough to know how bad the red tape can be. too often gaming companies make these groups but they dont have any power. would still like to know how known afk farmers got on the team. why are you rewarding people who dont play the game ccp?

here is my list whats yours?

chat timestamps pretty basic too. no excuse for it not being in. we should no longer see vanishing nanohives or drop uplinks. we should probably see points for destoying enemy assets as well.

totally agree on the command ladder and finite vehicle ammo as well.

So you think proto assaults should have less shields than a scout?

An assaults hp is where its intended. They are made to take a hit, and to be mobile to assault points. Whereas heavies are made to hold objectives with more hp but less mobility. Logi's are made to either move behind the assaults on the attack, or hang behind heavies on defense. Scouts are made not to be seen in order to get uplinks in strategic locations and to kill on the flank.


My personal list:

1) Arena Mode (With a built in gambling system which eve and dust players can bet isk on the matches)

2) PvE: To help new players learn the game, grow confidense, and earn isk and skill points. As well as giving vets a way to break up the monotony every once in a while.

3) An improved minimap with N,W,S,E indicators.

That is not true.

And our DPS is horrible in CQC because of the shield nerf. So unless we hit you with a flux, the standard Type 2 Assault with an AR will always have an advantage. That's while risking harming ourselfs do to the splash.

Alliance support...

For those of you who don't understand shields vs armor needs to take a look at eve shield tanking and armor tanking, rarely do you see both being utilitized.

Come uprising with multiple races of suits in the same class you're going to see distinctive differences between the races. You're going to see that every race will have a theme. Just because it is a prototype doesn't mean its entitled to special super powers or amazingly good stats. If its an amarrian heavy it should be mostly armor tank, of course its going to have less shields than a Caldari assault who typically perferr shields of lower levels.

You'll see come Uprising. I would say the infantry sandbox is nearly quadrupled in the next beta expansion.

I would like to see a buff to the regeneration speed or self armor repairers. The regeneration differnece btween armor and shields is ridiculous. I would like to see it changed from 2,3,5 armor/sec to something like 4,6,9 armor/sec.

is it a SoonGäó blog that will come out the day before Uprising? Or will we get a week to digest the new info?

Your assuming the AR has anyway of firing at you... when shot at by a mass driver you opponent is blinded by smoke and their gun shakes constantly preventing aiming. So yes dmg might seem low, but it's even lower from you apponent when they only strategy available is to spray n pray in your general direction, or just run away. Also 2 mass drivers on a high point can easily hold most positions and melt anyone who trys to move up. Combine a laser and a MD over a point and you have an inpenatrable fortress.

The smoke goes both ways, MD users have to aim at the feat with the smoke up, and aiming at the feat will almost always mean splash for the user in CQC. Let's not paint this black and white, we have to see you first, we have to have stable ground, and we have to manage our range or we die to our own weapons in order to stand a chance in CQC. Nerfing the standard MDs CQC capabilities will make the standard nearly worthless compared to the Assault MD, which has next to no CQC capabilities without the Flux.

That's the whole point of the Mass Dirver; to area deny. MD users don't need a nerf, we already have hit detection issues, we will always lose against elevated targets, and people are still hopping over our explosions.

Clocks are in Uprising! confirmed by Nullarbor in IRC and i think reddit as well. As for time stamps and warpoints? I going to poke about it.

But c'mon guys anything higher level concerns?

Mithridates VI
DUST 411

I think that seeing that CPM and immediately thinking "what things can they get me?" is the wrong approach. I'm not going to judge them based on a list of things I want but on how well they engage the community and communicate community feeling to CCP

Iron wolf I have a higher level concern and its more of a Roadmap issue. One of the original features of dust that was announced early in closed Beta and lately we have heard very little about is the commander role and the RTS type gameplay from the mcc. I really think this was going to be another huge differentiator to dust in its market. The last we heard anything about it was briefly discussed months ago in a dev blog. I would like to know if this idea has been scrapped and if not where is it on the roadmap.

A lot of mercs have asked recently about things like when the map table will show something meaningful or when wee will be able to place assets on the battlefield like selecting where a CRU is placed at the beginning of the battle by the field commander (which are small pieces of the ultimate FC RTS pie).

I would really appreciate it if as our CPM rep you would bring this up with the Dev's and express to them how much this one feature could really make dust even more unique and a very enjoyable way of making the tactical/strategy aspects of the game a way to attract an even broader audience.

Thanks and on a side note I may not always agree with you but certainly you would have been on my short list if we had to vote for CPM members.



I agree completely and this is exactly why I say that I would have voted for iron wolf as he has been very involved with the community already. I also think he has done so with no agenda other than trying to improve the game. I don't believe everyone elses motives have been as transparent.
