So i am a heavy player and will try to be as least biased as possible.


Turn speed changes.

They needed to happen. Heavies are already the slowest and biggest target in the game, why should i be insta done for because it takes 3 seconds to turn around even with sensitivity maxed. (DS3)

We already have enough disadvantages such as a limitation to CQC combat. (Hmg)


Armour buff.

This really doesn't give that much more armour a plate, maybe 1 or 2 more bullets in the long run, but the real advantage is that were 50% faster now. Movement penalties are cut in half on complex plates, so no longer will we be waddling constantly. only when we're out of are incredible low amount of stamina


Slower strafe speeds.

This helps all suits but i believe it helps the heavies the most. We have a devastating CQC weapon so the ability to track a target is very important. Slower strafe speeds make that a little bit easier.


Disable squad vision sharing.

This helps everybody a ton. Scouts the most, and heavies the least. Were slow so most likely to get spotted more often, and we usually center ourselves near the action or on top of a letter.


Lav Nerf.

Heavies always had the hardest time dodging these damned things. Were too slow and can't dodge them. This nerf helps heavies a lot.


HMG recoil reduction skill.

I like it better than the current skill we have, just sounds more useful. But i'll have to see it in practice.



So as you can see the heavies get a lot of buffs/ stealth buffs. This will finally make the class a CQC king like it always should have been.

I don't see these changes being overpowered. Just a huge improvement
