CCP Logibro wrote:So, since we will be making changes in the future, I would love it if you guys kept up with the suggestions of what you want as a Logibro when trying to repair others. Keep them coming, it will help out when we bring the changes later on.
Came back for 1.6 and hey despite the promises CCP could not even even fix the HP/Rep bar bug/change. What the heck?
Fix your existing equipment + handling and general logi bugs, before u add new stuff. Here is a list of bugs i encounter on a daily basis.
General:
1) Switching equipment feels sluggish and unresponsive, soften/change animation locking and blending.
2) Map/Hud colors! I'm not color blind and its too damn hard to find your own squad members, change the color of hud/map icons to something i can see! Also slightly change size/color of deployed equipment, in Ambush maps u often cant see sh.. because 20 drop uplinks + animations block a whole map area.
3) Why are there no support modules for Logi equipment? Why cant we improve/lower/change the repair tool, as example?
4) Get more creative with equipment versions and add equipment support modules, that may change handling/strength/range.
Repair Tool:
1) No idea who came up with the plan to hide armor bar's for Logi. If i have a fit with a repair tool, show all damaged armor bars around me in a large radius. Don't base this display logic on the current equip selection, since we switch between equip/weapon all the time, but for me seeing armor damage has priority. Even this is not working always, i often repair other players, while seeing no damage at all, but i get repair xp/notes. So the system is not working reliably.
2) The repair link effect is not displaying 20% of the time, u need to stop, wait and relink. 3) The repair link effect is ugly as f.... ?? What happened here? 4) The repair full-screen effect on target is disturbing/annoying, tune it down or change it. 5) The link is way to easy to loose around corners, change the LoS check logic and soften it. 6) The repair tool should prioritize targets in front/under reticle. Damaged Squad members -> squad heavy's -> other damaged targets. Would be nice to have a sorting option for this, at least prioritize damaged targets, before undamaged!
Drop Uplink:
1) U can still drop a uplink, which than let players spawn under the world geometry, forcing them to suicide. How hard can it be to code a sphere/box check vs the ground mesh and make sure the spawn is above it? 2) Change drop-uplink color for your own squad, it should be visible what your squad logi did depoy! (also see general colors) 3) Give us more options here, all DU basically work the same.
Injector:
1) Using this thing still feels unresponsive/slow and the animation/time after "injecting" before we can use the repair tool feels too long. 2) Give us more options here, all injectors basically work the same. How about some range options here? (grenades/area effects)
Scanner:
1) Give us more valid options here, how about a version that color-code/show the scanned suite class?
In general is someone at CCP playing TF2? Compare the medic "fix" to the repair tool, its very responsive, has some cool secondary gameplay mechanic and there are actual variants to choose from. It also isn't lost so often and is easy to link again, its visually more pleasing too. I also don't have to hold the damn button always while linking, it links and stays linked!
Compare the engi gemplay to Logi, its much more fun mechanic wise. In Dust logi just "drops" stuff and runs around repairing. Can we plz have some more second to second gameplay mechanic other than "linking" the repair tool and trying to not break it on every damn corner?

So with 1.7 lurking around the corner any news for Logi's or are we once again forgotten by CCP? All i see are vehicle changes and some new guns?
No color hud chages? No Hp bar visibility changes? No new logi equip or bugfixes for the old? No reworked logi skills?
Btw i also noticed that finding out what squad mate i'm following is a lucky guess, since i cant set my own personal "target" indicator's and the stupid names are either not rendered at all or are so small, that all i can do is hoping this assault suite i'm trying to catch up to, is "john" and not "jimmy" who asked me to follow him....
