How are the KB/M controls in this game? any mouse lag?
Last time I checked they aren't mouse controls at all, your mouse is basically acting like an analog stick, it's unusable.

How about Dust 514 |OT| Over 7000 Planets to Die On.

I'm sort of partial to 'The economic shooter' right now, but keep the suggestions coming! I think the general custom is to put official threads up a week before release, so I'll try to get it ready by next Monday. That's unless anybody else wants to take the reigns, because you'd be very welcome to.

I've not started anything yet, but I'll now probably have time later on today and it could be ready for tomorrow. The only reason I've been considering making it is due to the lack of support for Dust on NeoGAF and I just want to see it done to justice.You're working on it? I was going to try and see if I can make one this weekend. My last final is tomorrow, so I will be free right after.
This will most likely be improved. Something got badly messed up with the controls for both KB/M and controller this build. The experience with KB/M was supposed to be a lot better before Uprising was released.My experience after testing a few rounds, terrible. Its floaty as hell and it felt like trying to aim a gun through thick syrup.

I have really lost any excitement I had for this game. It builds more layers upon that which I don't like about modern FPS games anymore, needlessly complicated character customization and perk unlocking. I wanted to play with heavy machine guns but then I realized I have to play for god knows how many hours until I get to. The gameplay felt sluggish, shooting someone took forever until they were felled while a sniper somewhere could constantly one-shot me, I am still not sure if it is balanced at all, looking around me I got the same feeling I get from trying PVP in MMOs, everyone has better crap than me and its a futile battle to try and fight them.
Played a few rounds, I dont like whatever it is they did to control sensitivity. I'll be adjusting that as much as possible today then try to get stuck in.
What's the latest on coop/hoard mode?
https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=75463On Tuesday 14th of May we will be enabling a special instant battle queue for new players called the Instant Battle Academy. Entry to these battles will be limited by total war points earned per character and will prevent older players from joining. New players will not be presented with the existing instant battle queues however they can join a squad with veteran players and be pulled into other battles. Faction warfare and planetary conquest battles will also still be available to new players.
This is a first step at improving the new player experience. We are also working on a vastly improved matchmaking system which is designed to better separate players based on their actual skill level instead of just isolating new players. We will hopefully be rolling that out in an expansion later this year.
When the fixing of skills comes there will be an optional respec for anyone who submits a ticket.Got my ass absolutely handed to me post patch, didnt reinvest my skills yet ofc. Seems like a bad time to reapply skills with a rumoured fixing of skills coming round soon.

So this is coming out today? Any major patch planned before launch? I've been playing it lately a train some more skills, but the game is not all that great (to put it lightly) even after the latest patches. I'll be interested to see how it reviews.

How does this game compare to Planetside 2?
Massively. The engine's been vastly improved since the initial beta launch. I still find the framerate's low, which really fucks you up when using a mouse and keyboard, but at least it's more consistent now than it was before.So the game looks better now?

Assuming you're using a controller, try cranking the x-axis sensitivity to max. If you're on mouse and keyboard, you're in for a hard time. For some reason they lower your turning rate if you're holding down aim.The game looks better due to the vastly improved lighting (and there might be a few tufts of grass here and there), but overall most of the textures are still kinda sad. The UI is hugely improved performance-wise, still a bit complicated for first-time users.
I was having serious issues with the controls post update, but I found that everyone else on the Dust forums was too. Apparently aim-assist was buggy or something, it was patched pretty fast. Then I checked my control settings and discovered not only was auto-aim still off from when it was buggy six months ago, but the sensitivity now works completely differently. Actually got a few kills over the weekend in my usual militia gear after fixing all that.
If you want to make the OT then please do. I posted earlier in the thread about the kinds of things it should be covering, but it might be a good idea to keep it short and sweet. As an ever evolving game, a lot of the information could be redundant a year from now.I only got free from all my college work today instead of a week ago. I don't think anyone else worked on anything for the OT either.
I gotta recheck the game since the aiming appears to be patched now.
So I tried this in beta but didn't have a clue what was going on, just downloaded it off the store now and have to wait through what seems like 2-3GB of patches, did I end up downloading an old beta version instead of the new released version of did they make a terrible decision in wanting people to play it but making them wait while they download some big patches.
And that's the joy of this game, since you are actually buying each suit (with in-game money) you really value each life and stuff like this can happen.they patched the game a few times since release
also has anyone played the new 5 capture point map that takes place over 3 major structures with a bridge in the middle its much larger than all the other maps
got chased by 2 dropships and got trapped under the bridge for 3 minutes before they gave up i have never been more afraid than that in this game
Does that only work on vehicles?And that's the joy of this game, since you are actually buying each suit (with in-game money) you really value each life and stuff like this can happen.
Oh and I'm quite enjoying the Plasma Cannon/SMG combo. The cannon is a bit trickier than your ordinary rockets but still great fun.
