Maybe a tweak to the heavies turn speed but it is still something I can leave with.

Going to have to give a full nod on the mechanics so far. The feel is fluid all round, wasn't a MAG player so I can't share the experience between the two. Over all the movement isn't half bad. Maybe a tweak to the heavies turn speed but it is still something I can leave with.

Visually the game is more than just coming along. Would have expected the visuals to be close to par when Unleashed hit, but a process that is being seen layer by layer. Other than balance between the shields and armor over all I don't really have much to really complain about, but the day is still young.

If you're gonna buff a heavies turn speed, buff the scout's as well. Turn speed is what saves a scout vs a heavy, and we gotta keep our balance.

So.. Raz, since you're a heavy and not a scrub heavy, I can ask you this....How is the heavy/HMG vs the assault/scout in this build? Are you able to deal with the new strafing speeds of the other classes with the HMG?

It actually feels more fluid in this build and less clunky. I don't have to break my controller when I want to run. I only played a few games so I don't know if it is just first impressions are not.

Now...I love the movement speed, it resembles MAG but will be harder to kill until the aiming and hit detectin is fixed. Although, I will try to adjust and be fine. My only concern is for the heavies, though. I don't want a speed nerf but I'm thinking that they may need a buff in the turning radius for their HMG. I don't know, maybe the heavies are ok....may need some feedback from them.

All in all....this patch is the first patch that I've seen where the improvements are good ones without huge flaws. Nice job CCP

DDR 514 is back and as annoying as ever, even more so as a heavy because they can just dance back and forth at amazing speeds. CCP has no idea what they want to do for their game, dancing in a tanky FPS is just silly.

It's just like back in the before time, when people would dance the night away any time you get into a firefight. Why be tactical and stick to cover when you can juke and jive bullets?

O.o

Only two idiots would stand there and dance together and not hit each other.. If both of you are not hitting each other one or the other should learm to aim... Second if you constantly find your self being the only one at party dancing you should probably learn to squad....

This movement speed has greased all our shoes fattys can dance too !

CCP really wants this to be a shooter that requires very little personal skill

Thinks like absurd strafe speed, flaylock pistols and murder taxis are all wonderful indications of this trend

High strafe speeds with low bullet damage requires a lot of skill because you have to be able to maintain your aim of that target. You are a heavy which means you play with high HP and high dps so strafing isn't as important to you but to someone with less hp and low dps its everything. I quit dust when they first took it away months ago and I love it now that its back.

But I do agree about flaylocks and contact grenades.

Yeah and it plays like CoD now...it's horrible.

The game is a joke in CQC.

Overall 1.2 made the game feel more twitchy and CoD-ish...I'm not liking it.

Not for those of use who know how to aim and strafe at the same time

COD is slow paced. Easier to track enemies, they don't bunny hop and can't strafe as ridiculously fast as in this game. The opposite is obviously good for someone who uses a mouse, like the OP.

It's not just aiming though, it's playing the prediction game. It's unnecessarily making people stop and do the Cha Cha in order to collect kills, buffs shield tankers even more, nerfs armor tankers even more, looks obnoxious, adds nothing of value to the game, and hands another advantage over to MKB users since strafing and aiming with a mouse is so easy a Cal Logi could do it

What you call tactical I call hiding behind cover and I will continue to dominate KBM user with my DS3

I play an AR heavy and don't tank. Strafing just encourages people to shield tank and to not engage their opponent tactically since they can just do the disco shuffle out in the wide open instead of encouraging them to break from cover to cover.

Basically strafing just drastically lowers the seriousness of the game because it's hard to say a game is tactical when your ability to hop left and right is more important than your ability to identify and stick to proper cover.

I hope you get selected as a CPM,because you make some great points. Disco dancung bunny hopping is back in full effect. I played 4 matches and logged off. Might play during the triple SP but i doubt it.

Everyone is moving so fast, it will take me some time to adjust. They bunny hope then speed off like speedy Gonzalez lol. 1.2 was a step in the right direction. Im old so it will take me some time to adjust to the fast gameplay
