Titian like mode

Link to this post 26 Mar 12

In bf 2142 they had titian mode where each team had a giant ship like our mcc. The enemy team or your team would then try and board that ship and destroy it. This sounds like a neat idea.

lol a lot of dust is exactly like battlefield2142. Now it's been revamped, revisited, upgraded, given a real persistant war to fight in. We were wondering that as well, if you could board the mcc's and blow them up from the inside. Haven't seen anything showing that or talking about that yet.

Um, isn't that almost the point of the match they showed? Dock or destroy the MCC?

I hope they have a actual docking animation for the MCC so you can see it float down and hook up to a terminal.

boarding the eve titans (24km ships) would be hillarious

highly doubt it will ever happen, but a fun idea

Way down the road docking up and taking over a titan "or any super cap with a clone bay?" with a group of dusters would be cool :) clone bay is need so the pilot of the the ship can jump in defenders. The EVE side of the Corp would have to have the ship trying to be boarded in structure with all the stuff in place to keep it from jumping or warping away. The dusters would have to board "Some How" and deactivate the self destruct "if activated", then fight the way through the super caps Dust defenders to a point where you could eject to pilot and take his big expensive ship :)

Dust boarding Titans could be the best thing for EvE Warfare down the road if they accept and love us, and use us just they would an smallest interceptor, or bomber

That's gonna be hard to pull off.

Very hard to pull off :) But If you did, how cool would that be... I would love to see a band of pirates, running around EVE setting traps & stealing ships Yharrr!!!!

u guys are gettin the wrong picture i think.
he means titan mode from bf2142 not actually boarding the EVE titan ship....

titan mode in bf2142 had a ship very much like the mcc where the goal was to destroy the enemy titan, u can destroy it from the outside which takes longer or drop its shields and board it and destroy it from the inside.

I mentioned this MANY times to the previous and current dust community managers and even recently on the dust irc chat. Id love to see that happen in DUST

Ya we got the wrong picture :) but it was fun to think about how boarding Rorqual or Titan would be done \o/

That would be pretty cool.
I always thought the space battles in Star Wars Battlefront 2 were some of the coolest ever, because you could board the enemy ship or just take it down from the outside.

I always thought they should have expanded on that idea.

Along with the Galactic Conquest mode was cool with the money management and everything.

If they ever make Battlefront 3, they should include a clan system, and expand heavily on space battles. Heck it could be barely upgraded visuals and I would still buy it.

Just make it 256 players, add space battles, and have gigantic ground battles. That would be boss!

for those of you that have yet to grow some brains, there is already a way to make ships in orbit lifes miserable its called planetary defense guns, which will be a skill you can skill up and shoot back at caps in space

@dannykiers, dude, don't be a jerk.

Next, we could just have people fight over war barges. This way EVE players don't be mad about us shipjacking them and we still get a really cool form of combat.

Fighting for War Barges?

Not bad. Would have to be really hard, considering that the War Barge is the lifeline for the entire invasion.

Link to this post 30 Mar 12

That would be the point, they would be really tough because War Barges are the backbone of invasion forces. Fights would be really fun though. Plus can you picture 2 War Barges firing at each other while gunships zip between them shooting at each other and deploying troops onto the other Barge? People sprinting to an open hanger yelling how they need to repel a group of deployed troops.

Well I can imagine the war barge becoming a vulnerable target to other capsuleer ships, implying the WB will be a EVE or Dust player controlled ship one day.
