One recommendation (and hope) for Dust

I've played quite a few FPS's. I've played the Battlefield series, the CoD MW series, Halo, Half Life 1 and 2, etc. etc. etc.

One thing that makes me rage? Players who play like they're rambo running around and blasting people in the face with a submachine gun. Well, that and the noob tube, but I assume CCP won't put something so crass in this game...

Anyway, my recommendation is that it is made absolutely impossible to run across an open landscape and run up to kill somebody like rambo. Please, make the 13 year old gamers suffer by not being able to play like smacktards.

Do this, and I promise your game will be much better than any FPS out there right now.

My recommendation would be that you learn how to use sniper rifles

you lie, i learned from the open maps on BF2( and the best BF2 mod ever BF2:PR) running in the open = dead.


that said CoD and most new FPS suffer from the kill box effect, all hall ways lead to 2 or 3 zones where most of the righting happens, that's what ends up making Rambos, all you have to do is run across this space gunning to get kills.

All automated intel should be removed from the game including Instant local/jumps/kills/cynos for all systems/regions.Eve should report nothing like this to the client/3rd party software.Intel should not be force fed to players. Player skill and iniative should be the sources of intel.

My recommendation is to have destructible terrain.

And if you don't like the guy running up to you, run him over with a buggy/tank/dropship

Edit: would it be possible to drop turrets on top of people? A sort of orbital bombardment that then starts killing the wounded?

Runs over noob tubers with an AFV.

What rambo?

Anyways further weighin in on the subject.

I would like to see a super scout done right somone that moves very fast and fluid which would also mean that they will have to speed tank.

SMGs would almost be required along with a possible combat knife to dispose anyone they chatch pants down.

Also for greands launchers

Grenade Launchers done wrong.

Rifel Mounted in MW2s

Grenade Launchers done right.

Pro-tube from Halo Reach.

XM25 from MW3.

If they ever do the mw 2 grenade launcher please oh please remove the minimal detonation arming range so that a careless tubing would inflict just as much harm as the guy he just shot.

Heres a thought on game design. I love these guys at extra-credits, but specifically I wana point out 'first order optimal strategies.' Can skip ahead to 2:00 to get this. Watch this and learn!


Also...

Eve gets mentioned in that episode.

When I played Counterstrike, I always had great fun in the sniper maps.
While I was a decent sniper, my specialty always was with the shotgun. I've been kicked from servers for getting one of those, and crossing the no-man's land that's between the 2 sniper sides and shooting people in the face with it.

While crossing such an open ground is generally a bad idea, if you know HOW to do it, and the enemy doesn't know how to react to someone crazy enough to try, making it across is quite easy.
( Smoke grenades and flashbangs help in this matter, as well as a suppressive explosive grenade or two )

Does railgun ammunition come in Hollow Point?

My hope is that ultimately it's ported for PC gamers.

NO!

The only way FPS will get better is when you are forced to wear a special kit connected to your nipples, scrotum and tongue and everytime you die YOU GET A RANDOM SHOT/JOLT of ELECTRICITY relevant to the magnitude of the shot.

You'll see how everyone begins to play better. Also a new type of Punkbuster/Rootkit VIRUS of LAW, that perma wires electricity to cheaters and hackers. YEAH that will do, any other ideas posted here will just fail.

Trust me, I come from the future.

This destructible terrain is so important now. Other shooters just aren't the same unless it's TF2. Which is why the noob tube is awesome in BF... oh really hide behind that wall will you?
