I wasn't there for Chromosome and I see quite a few posts, comments, blogs etc mentioning how great the gameplay was in Chromosome.
For those of us that missed the 'good old days' can you vets tell us, what made Chromosome so great? |

For me, the biggest highlight of Chromosome was the aiming and aim assist for the DS3. That's all I use, and on a console FPS you really need it. It was responsive, not overbearing, and the acceleration/deceleration assist and tracking were spot on.
Once Uprising hit, it went to sh*!. Sadly, it still is. The changes have done nothing to fix it. |

It felt more fluid as a FPS game. Weapons had actual range. Laser rifles were a viable wepon (Slightly too powerful but then CCP went and mega nerfed them)
Most games required teamwork and you would see squads actually sticking together and working together.
In my humble opinion the gun handling and shooting aspects were better. LAV`s were not overpowered. We had the marauder tanks.
Damn man thinking back now, I really miss chromosome :(

For me the gunplay was just much more soild, instead of the spray and pray weirdness we have going on now, bullets used to go where you aimed them, lone wolfing against squads was viable if you were a good gunner, there doesnt feel theres any consistency now regarding aiming, sure its managable to a certain extent, but not as good as it was in chromo |

What about all the things that were seriously out of whack?
LAVs were difficult to drive and exploded if you looked at them funny.
Laser Rifles could control wide areas of the map and fried you so fast you barely had a chance to move.
Tactical Assault Rifle gangs ran rampant and were also almost insta-kill at ranges even greater than the Laser Rifle.
The glorious Assault Mass Driver, the one I miss the most, could rain hellfire down upon the masses in a constant barrage and bring forth such epic tears. |

Entirely possible since I'm old and my brain is squishy, but the TAR + modded controller was a pain in the butt until recently.

The TAR was not OP in Chrom. It was OP in Codex, I believe.
LAVs had nothing to do with core shooting mechanics, also they are more preferable than the immortal LLAVs we have now.
The mass drivers and Laser rifles just needed number tweaks, not massive mechanical overhauls. |

I'm pretty sure you can go back to the chromoforum-times and you will see whining about stuff not working and how we loved everything else as well. Things change and we will always whine even if CCP were to revert back now, then suddenly stuff now would be good in some ways while other things would be bad.
Balancing and new stuff sure as hell is hard to maintain and make work.

yeah sure, there was some issues, but the basic core mechanics were pretty fecking tight
tac ar was a pain in upriseing, more so because every other ar got range nerf when that didnt
i never drove lav's because it was basicly insta kill , which i think was better, you didnt run dudes over because you knew they would have av nades, you hear swarms you jump out, you want a more solid lav, you specced into one
lasers and mass drivers, meh, aiming was good enough to take care of them, mass drivers are more of a pain now i feel |
