This game is obnoxious with higher strafe speeds and caters to twitch players as opposed to tactical ones. It doesn't say anything for personal skill, it just says that you predict better than others and can twitch your joystick left and right faster than others. It also buffs KBM / Shield users / and splash damage weapons.

It offers nothing of value to the game, and only serves to boost the ego of the few players who thrive in this type of environment.

We did away with DDR 514 a long time ago for a reason.

Aka players that don't need to hop back and forth out in the open like idiots to try and prove that they're somehow good.



The ego's of FPS players will literally never cease to amaze

Why would you introduce a mechanic that encourages using the already strongest form of tanking, while punishing the weak form of tanking, and rewarding players who use low skill weapons like flaylocks?

If you want high speed high action, then the game has to be balanced around that. We've been balancing around a more gritty, hardcore style of play, and now we suddenly went back to this crap, and the game isn't balanced around it.

I kill noobs either way, with you few top % players still stomping me no matter what I do.

I'm more concerned with the direction we're suddenly going in again. Have you ever just sat and watched two people strafe fight? How can you look at that and think anything other than "lol"?

I'd also like a definitive link to a CCP employee specifically stating that this is supposed to be a "strafing shooter" (aka DDR da FPS)
