Nothing like parking your (easy to fly) dropship at the top of the building of the 4 letter map and spamming missiles with huge splash damage all around, or making our enemy suffer at their spawning point since there was no huge redline to help them, spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die on a barrage of vehicles and snipers.
Ohhhh, the good old days. |

I still remember spawning in literally the exact same spot at each spawn. I remember when strafe speeds were so high and hit detection was so low that the game seemed more like DDR 514. I remember when remote explosives were combat weapons. I remember being an immortal scout with just garbage gear because hit detection was so bad. I remember making more SP than I knew what to do with. I remember NULL cannons that could be taken out by tanks and AV with ease, on the only progression based map we've seen so far (Crater Lake).
Back then if you died while shooting, you'd continue to shoot as you fell down and layed on the ground until you emptied your clip; I miss that so damn much. I remember watching the MCC move. I remember getting a system freeze every single time I played anything other than Ambush :/ I remember the original textures and blocky / pasty suits. I remember STB and raging at them for their tank use. I remember when dropships were laughably easy to fly, and took basically no impact damage; DEATH FROM ABOVE (the true DUST bunnies). I remember when dropship controls were initially changed, that was hilarious and also induced much rage from me.
I remember when CRUs were little, and you could stand inside turret installations at a control panel. I remember flux grenades that would slaughter you, and the first time fused grenades were ever introduced. I remember losing all my stuffs to yet another character reset.
Lots of remembering. Ahh, nostalgia. |

Ah when forge guns had splash like a flux....
There was a brief time when they tweaked the HMG to have more damage... tripple complex dmg mods, boundles HMG and increased range... the only weapon crazy scouts feared lol and that took a heartbeat to murder anything else
SMG's had the range of AR's now.
the days just after the fixed MD splash/hit ditection/ not getting shot through the floor... and suddenly those brave few who skilled into it became the most feared players in the game lol |

Codex was the build when I really got into dust; I played in the builds before that, but I had no idea what I was doing (btw, laser rifles were released in codex)
And DAMN was codex imbalanced. That was when dropships couldn't be touched (yet destroyed everyone they flew above), and ARs had scopes, no recoil, and the accuracy of a laser rifle.
There was also the testers' tournament in codex, which (looking back ) was complete bullshit anyway since it was just a competition of who uses the OP stuff more (the winning corp was supposedly using 2 godmode gunships as opposed to the other team's 1)
You also forgot that when corps first came out, eve players could join and transfer a ridiculous amount of ISK, so CCP ended up patching that and doing an ISK/asset reset on everyone. |

PVE scares me, thinking of how accurate installations are. A railgun installation recently shot my scout out of the air when it jumped. |

I was there back in a build called replication where DUST was a fresh and completely original game. The game was balanced and had a real rock paper scissors feel to it. Unfortunately it got progressively worse with each subsequent build. |

I remember hearing about DUST 514 years ago- and knew right away that I would be buying a PS3 just to play it.
I havent played console games in almost a decade, not since FFX, GTA Vice city and Gran Turismo 3.
I sent in my beta code request, but as an EVE player I got a code soon after anyway.
I knew I would get my ass handed to me, not being a FPS player, and when I started playing, I did 
I remember playing on my CRT TV with my roommates, and handing the controller over to my Halo-playing buddy- and watching how he played.
I remember when I finally started going positive in my KDR
I remember finding a corp for the first time.
I remember doing really well with the AR, then CCP bringing the Iron sight changes and my crybaby rage 
I remember speccing into logi, and the ridiculous WP factory that they used to be... 
I remember the bomb-fest that the MD used to be in certain situations (on top of the dish)
------------///////////////////---------------
I'm looking forward to speccing into minmatar assault, and running dual-slaylock

There was nothing balanced about replication...... it was either "you had the heavy or you lost"...... AR's were a joke back then, and so was hit detection.... |

Because of all the those tanks completely made the game boring. I even spec into AV that build but I was like the only 1 each time trying to forge gun the bastards lol. Also remember all the post STB made durning that time, was really fun reading those
Lol I remember what you mean..... times were..... fun back then. Though infuriating too because of the tank. Literally, I remember the devs had a match against the players and they got redlined via tank spam. LOL |

That's the one! Yeah..... lol thanks for the correction. And your right, that build went through sooooo many nerfs it wasn't even funny |

My favorite memory was being able to swarm launcher the MCC down before any of the red dots got close enough to kill me in skirm 1.0. I'd like to see that mode make a comeback as Onslaught or named something similar. I don't want it to be that simple to kill the MCC either though. Everything should damage the MCC's, but I don't think anything should beat all the null cannons in a stage. |
