Shooting looked so floaty and weak...

First dislike why the TTK is shorter then when you see the first gameplay videos then you are "ZOMG MAD SKILLS GOOD!" and forget about what you said earlier.

I don't know how many games you've played. I don't know how good you are. But in my vast gaming experience one thing always showed me that games with really fast TTK and really slow movement (PS. BF and etc.) will become a kill fest rather than a teambased shooter.

Now you thing that it's so cool but it won't be when people start camping, saying that they are "protecting" or "securing" the area. The best moments of a game is when you are constantly on the move, flanking doing things with your team and not sitting behind a corner all the time. Fast TTK will bring just that.

So i think lowering the TTK is for the best cause it will promote teamwork and not personal stats and "ZOMG IDA GOD!!!!!!11111!".

I've played lower TTK games for the last 12 years or something. High TTK "duel to the death" games have never appealed to me, I prefer the more "tactical shooter" kinda games. I personally never camp and rarely find it an issue in the games I play.

Planetside was always an exception to this cos it was such an unique game that you either put up with the horrible gunplay (IMO) or skipped the amazing game entirely. Same goes here. The TTK is still far off from what I usually prefer, but the game overall looks so frigging amazing that it wont stop me from playing it. If nothing else, I can do non-combat roles and still enjoy the game. That said, I dont think Planetside 2 would work with any lower TTK cos of it's scale. The current one seems like a pretty good midroad between too fast and too slow.

And well, if I have to choose to be killed by a camper or have to do a multi-second gun duel in every encounter, I choose getting killed by a camper. I'm sorry but I just do not enjoy those ridicilous duels, I come from too much realism background for that

Also, I'm just about the last killwhore you'll find on this planet. Shooting people on the way is secondary for me, it's always been about objective for me. But since I do have to shoot the people on the way, I prefer they die in a moderate time instead of having some god damned duel every time.
