Really upset and my spelling/grammar is bad anyway so just heads up

Edit:not saying to kill assault just to improve the other classes

Ok want to start off by saying I love dust it's concept and what it can become ccp has my faith that they can make this the best game of our generation but there's something to be addressed:the blatant favoritism of all things that could be considered an 'assault' suit and/or weapon while other classes get the backhand I'm literally watching the game I love's degeneration into something far from what it use to be, and no where near what it was ment to be.

The ar/sr are devastating on the field and not many weapons of the same teir can oppose them,you've made the av granades more useful then some av giving assault players a way to quickly dispatch hostile vehicles ON THEIR OWN, you've taken equipment slots from everything but the logi which is for all intentions an assault suit itself and being a medium suit it was only too easy for them to spec into.

Mass driver

Hmg

Scouts

Remote explosives

Proximity mines

Heavys

Lr

Tanks

Snipers

Missiles

All these things and more have taken the shaft because of constant complaint from assault players the mass driver's splash damage, the hmg's effectiveness to the point that hmgs can be outgunned by damn near everything , scout's speed/shield tanking ability and cpu,remote explosives and proxi mines took a hit to overall effectiveness with proxi mines taking the biggest hit being inferior to the av granade and flux for anti tank purposes ,the heavy suit was completely boned over in health/slots reducing the damage they could take,the Lr is bloody useless, tanks have been nerffed to hell,snipers have problems in taking out suits of their class without damage mods, missiles were made to be nearly useless against infantry unless used by a dropship, I can go on and on.

I realize that most of your players are assault but I'm begging you this blatant favoritism NEEDS to stop fix the mass drivers, fix the snipers,take out the infantry damage mods, fix the hmg, fix the tanks,the scout, the heavy, the demolition, fix it all I'm begging you give us a fighting chance I don't want to have to go assault/logi just to compete!

You have other players ccp! and they are feeling neglected by the overwhelming presence of assault and the further punishment to all that don't run as one, this is my last time calling out to you ccp I just don't know what to do I know this thread's going to be filled with trolls but someone needs to say SOMETHING so I'm here begging you because there is nothing that I havn't tried and at this point I fear there is nothing else I can.

Please ccp and my fellow dusters if there was ever a time to come together this is it! Please let's band together, speak up, and stop this before it's too late!

Just please I don't know what more to do

Thats because most of these weapons are/were "noob tubes" very high power for very little skill.

Actually, it's because most dumbass AR assaults don't know how to counter something (well, besides the viziam LR, and devs confirmed the stats were a fluke)
I've learned just by watching most people play why they think everything but the AR is OP-

1. Enemy team has major tactical advantage and is using it to put their weapons to optimal use
2. Pack of blue AR assaults charge in with no use of caution, and get slaughtered
3. Instead of finding a better approach, the pack of blue AR assaults does the same thing again
4. and again
5. and again

This post is for some who either A:misunderstood me or B:are ignoring this part of the thread intentionally

As I said in my post :I'm not trying to kill the assault class nor the assault weapons I just want the other classes/weapons to have the strength to fight back and do as they were ment to do not be struck down to appease the many

Agreed I want to see more, and possibly spec into Scouts (the Amarr Scout) and see more heavies in the field, however IMO its not down to the weapons needing buffs its the lack of variance in the heavy weapon types, and for scouts the long range weapons.

logi which is for all intentions an assault suit itself

it takes three standard AV nades to blow up the free militia LAV, thats all the grenades you will have on hand and if you use them on a tank you wont even dent the shield, if someone has specced into grenades far enough for the good ones they damn well better be effective

Really upset and my spelling/grammar is bad anyway so just heads up

LMAO once they nerf logis everyone will switch back to assaults and people will claims that assaults are OP because thats what every one is using and its out killing other classes. The simple fact is 1 flux grenade against a cal logi leaves them with 112 armor and thats if they have the armor core skill at level 5 and if they have armor plates they are an easier target because they're slower. If you see a bunch of proto cal logis why not switch to a dropsuit with flux grenades instead of crying on the forums for a nerf of a dropsuit with a GLARING WEAKNESS.

I agree with you Sinboto, I want to see variety[, counters, new map structures for a full on war simulation.

The assault team is to push forward. Every other role is to support or deterr this highly effective role.
thanks.

If you played chromosome you'd have noticed a pretty level playing field where you where as likely too see an assault rifle as you where a shotgun or a Laser Rifle i the kill feed. Now every game has the assault rifle on the kill feed three or four times in a row before other weapons appear. gek -> duvole -> shotgun -> insert tank turret here -> fused pay to win grenade -> gek -> gek-> duvolle. Anyways I wish I had a video recording hardware to just make a kill feed video.

Damn I've seen guys with militia assault rifles kill heavies. I also see a heavy and when I expect an HMG there is a duvolle or gek in their hands because it deals better damage and has more range.

Balance is needed back to how chromosome had it where everyone had their part to play, no matter the weapon, no matter the suit.

Didn't expect one of my own to be this stupid.........

I've not asked for anything to be nerffed dropsuit or otherwise which means you didn't actually read the thread which I didn't expect from you at all carlos I'm rather ashamed that a stb member would post something so foolish, in another stb member's thread no less, and I'm disgusted by your actions so expect to be hearing from me.

Your post is foolish, childish, filled with stupidity, and quite frankly disgusting troll somewhere else fool.

Yeah but what class isn't severely hurt with fluxes? Armor tankers but they suffer from the weakness you mentioned by being slow and therefore an easier target. I agree assualts need a different racial the reload seems pretty useless but so do heavies less feedback damage? The worst IHMO at least assualts get the faster regen. Also assualt caldari will only have 150 armor with 6% more movement speed not to big of a difference if we're talking base stats.

So very true.

One time, I was repping blueberries on the bottom of a set of stairs. You could clearly see that everyone that goes even halfway up the stairs is getting shot up, so they usually don't make it to the top before they die.
Blueberries just kept going up once after the other. None made it past the top step, but I got some triage/guardian WP
