Couldn't agree more, good sir. If you find the time, you should swing by the Barbershop and introduce yourself. The guys are generally tough on pilots, but you don't sound like a pilot; I suspect they'll give you a pass :-)
by invitation, I'm here to say Hey!
Most of you guys may know me, and others may not, but I'd like to introduce myself as a CPM1 Candidate for everyone.
I play a Caldari Omni-Solider. I have advanced Suits across all Caldari, with SP also sunk into Vehicles (HAVs, LAVs, and Dropships (Assaults as well yes). I'm not the 'greatest' player around. the best you might be able to call me is 'above average' and even that is being a bit generous in my eyes.
However, despite my Gun Game Fails, I am a thinker. I see patterns from many angles, and often strive to find non-numerical solutions for issues that have plagued us since DUST began, and these things that should be implemented in Legion. Such as:
- Map Balance: Described here.
- Movement Options: A popular thread from a while back to give us slides, ledge grabs, vaulting. Often praised by the Scouting community who would have benefitted greatly from this in terms of being highly manoeuvrable, rather than just fast. Thread here (It's Locked, so don't attempt to Necro it please.)
- As well as Open World and PvE. - https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=69715 - https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1146929#post1146929
With the only real options in DUST being numerical server-side hotfixes, I have proposed several ways to round out numbers, and help achieve a provisional balance in DUST. I also tend to look at things from a "game-developer-in-training"'s point of view since I'm undertaking an open learning Development course when I'm not here talking nerd stuff, or looking after my kids.
Well this was a quick introduction and I hope I gave you all some answers about who I am, what I do, and what I aim to do.

I think we're already seeing that kind of shift. ADS are tough to fly, with the camera still not being what it should be for a ground-attack aircraft, but perform solidly in most cases. HAVs are still solid platforms. I think post Alpha, we're likely to see a more even split.
