I was playing earlier today and in the match i was running in the heat of battle while in the dustance an armor dropship is downed by a forge gunner. The ship burns as it falls to its doom. Moments like these are what make gameplay truly fun but in this case it was a little disappointing. When the drop ship hit the dirt after plumiting from the sky there was no explosion . Just the sound of one. I thought to myself wouldnt that have been so cool if there was a brighter bigger more colorful explosion?
Im not just talking about dropships im talking about cars, tanks, grenades all being enhanced with bright colors of fire and light. The explosions really need to be enhanced because these are things that make the gameplay funner and feel more alive. Take battlefield 1943 for example. For those of you who have played it know what im talking about. When anything blows up in that game you BELIEVE IT. When things blow up in this game it feels. . . Stail and lifeless. I AM NOT comparing battlefield 1943 to dust. I am expressing how I ,as a player, feel submerged in battle when basic elements are created with detail and love.in this case explosions.
Can you guys at ccp maybe implement some kind of hud distortion for when you are hit by a flux grenade or something cool along those lines? It would make sense because flux grenades disrupt shielding. Nothing too crazy. just some kind of electric pulse kind of feel.
What do my fellow dusters think about this? Any ideas of what could make gameplay cooler ?

Ahahaha XD niice. Yah im talking about detailed brighter more enhanced explosions to make blowing up vehicles a rewarding experience by itself. We all just do it for the points. That needs to change |

Yah like the pilot dropsuit. But wait a second. Wouldnt that be PERFECT if they focused on both? Think about it. Pilots = vehicles. . And vehicles = jee idk EXPLOSIONS. It would be perfect timing. After I finish creating a new pilot clone i will get to deploy in a battle with revamped explosions so when my tank takes out a LAV its a better and fresh experience. |

I'd like to see vehicles actually break apart when they explode, rather than keep their shape and just fade away.
I'd also like dropships to explode midair if the armor value goes too far into the negative. |

TBH, if they go ahead with the explosion damage falloff, I'd hope they did it for all explosions and not just grenades and flaylock/mass driver. |

Im so happy you said this! I agree with this. I would like to add that the vehicles should have more of a jump effect when they explode. Imagine an lav zooming across the map unaware of the tank lurking on the sidelines. The tank does what it does best and blows it up. This is where the changes should be made. The lav should, instead of turning black and simply slowing down, blow up, dont forget about the crisp explosions they would have added, and fly a reasonable distance off the ground. This would be really cool because if the vehicle was going fast it would roll and flip upon landing back onto the ground after being blown up. It makes for fun visuals.
And to your dropship proposal: they NEED to make the dropships explode in mid air. The dropships should burn to the grown only when they have spec of life. But if a forger were to shoot it out of the sky just let it blow up.
I think your proposed crumble effects are more important for drop ships over lavs and tanks. If a dropship blew up in the air the element that would increase the aw factor is the ship breaking a part as the remains hurl to the battlefield. Players would look up and go dang he got owned haha |

Indeed. Hopefully this gets enough attention so the dev sees. |

Dust right now kind of looks like .//hack:Roots. Kind of cool that there is snow and stuff like that although we don't actually see any of that other than on the map. I still want to see the racial variants of heavies and the racial ARs that should fix some of the QQ thats been going on as well as a bunch of stuff that is supposed to come... they say patients is a virtue (but I'm not a doctor). I am fine with the current level of explosiveness and I will keep bringing my nades and MD and plasma cannon around when I feel there is a time and place for it. I want the game to explode in terms of new gear rather than a pretty animation to show the kids thank you very much (that's what Eve is for). |

Yes! I want new content! But i dont think graghical enhancements are on the same level as new content. I would pick new content, such as new weapons and the long awaited jet fighters, over enhanced explosions anyday. But thats not the case. I think in the meantime ccp can tune A couple of elements for the better so that as we are waiting for this new content we get some attention in other areas of the game. But i would pick new content over anything else, definetly. |
