I'd rather have it a feature that can be turned on or off, rather than tied to an equipment. |

Signed. This was a bad idea to begin with, especially for us actual logis.
I like you guys, CCP, but this is yet another case of something the Dust community could have told you was a bad idea to begin with, if you had only asked. Should have bounced it off us first. |

Give us an icon just like the revive symbol for players that need repairs or ammo.
Want an idea of how this would look? Search "Resistance 2 co-op" and look at the medic and spec ops gameplay. |

Well, if we're going to get changes to make our jobs easier, then I'd love if we'd expand the "show ammo bars" idea to make them flash (red) when they're at 20-30% or to provide some indication (in addition to having the bars shown when in range while holding the tool) that people are low, especially considering that the triage information is only going to be shown to us and while our tools are out. |

This would really invalidate much of the shared squad vision and less visual clutter changes that came with 1.4. Those changes actually really improved the game, and made the scanner a powerful tool. Unfortunately, though, Logis paid the price for these changes, and I for one, am extremely pleased to know that CCP is going to work toward making our jobs easy again. |

Allow logi lavs more freedom with their reps to vehicles. Sucks to loose reps to your tank buddy because they went around light post. Also extends to infantry but at least you don't depend on cool down.
Locks also need to be faster and more obvious. Aloe us to set a priority of who gets reps. Currently it has a hard time deciding who gets reps if a bunch of friendlys are nearby. Allow us, or sy a better set of parameters for who gets reps first. Also allow us more freedom when using dual reppers. I want to take off repps on a single person without breaking lock on both.
I,m really looking forward to equipment based boosts
Lastly, give logis a bonus which keeps assault folk out of the logi class. I don't mind people using logi for killing, but don't nerf our class because assaults use the suit for more flexibility. Give us truly defined roles and we will be happy. |

Still equip my Core repper on most of my suits but even running in a full squad, it's used maybe 30% of the time it used to be since 1.4 was released.
Example: In the midst of a firefight, squad member called out for reps - spent at least a minute trying to find each other due to lack of player names and health bars, even when often looking directly at players at close range. After much "where exactly are you" dialogue, found out we were on completely different levels & once we'd finally met up, his armour had passively repaired fully anyway! - took us both out of the fight for much longer than it should have done.
We logis definitely require a better system for quickly recognising those requiring repair. Not sure health bars being directly linked to having the rep tool equipped would work, personally - we used to be able to make a split-second decision whether to run to an area with weapon equipped before quickly switching to repper or vice versa. |

When you have rep tools out there names changes color depending on how much health they have left so you can prioritize who needs it most. Also some type of audio cue when someone is at full health. Audio cue when you receive a guardian points.
Nano grenades (BTW these can not be restored with ammo hives.)
A repair tool made for vehicles and installations that repair more but has an overheating function to prevent abuse. A rep tool that heals more than the core rep tool with an overheating function to prevent abuse.
Just a few random suggestions. Hell no. Dont sepperate the triage hives skillwise. Im not willing to spend more SP into something that i allready use on a regular base. And no to shield rep tools. Shield players allready have much better regen over armor repairs. Introducing shield reps would throw off again the fragile balance. |

Give us at least the health bars AND the name tags for our squad members. All the time! And for every player in the squad. Since the suits and loadouts can be very similar, this is essential for squad play. It's not only the medic who needs to know where everybody is. A good squad leader needs to know where his troops are, so that he can direct them in the right direction. You can't even read their nametags when they are to far away... that makes no sense for a game that's supposed to be squad based. Additionally give us the healthbars of nearby friendlys in a 30m radius when we have the repper equipped.
Maybe make it optional if you want to see every friendlys bars as soon as you have healing equipment in your inventory...

Unfortunately, I fear you're giving the QA team too much of a benefit of the doubt there... Just saying, based on not just this, but also previous issues they've let slip past them

Signed. How can you see who needs help in the team. Turn the bars back on, or give people the option to have them off or on.

Those changes actually really improved the game, and made the scanner a powerful tool. The shared squad vision was a red dot change ... but they took it to extreme and de-cluttered everything.
As I've said earlier it's probably a lot of the reason we're seeing a smoother game, since everyone isn't having to download detailed hp information about everyone in the battle.
If it would be too difficult to tie it to having specific equipment fitted ... perhaps it could be a trait of the logistics suits and vehicles, if that would be easier to code ... this isn't the ideal choice but if it means we can get a fix sooner I'm sure most would be happy with it until it dcan be tied to the triage equipment / modules.
Again ... some people still seem to be saying things liek 'When you're using a repair tool' ... THIS WILL NOT DO ... it needs to be when triage equipment is fitted to the suit you're using, otherwise I could be standing next to a heavy providing support fire with no idea that he's very low on armour and I could keep us both alive by stepping back into cover and locking a repair tool on him while he finishes everyone off.
Someone suggested changing the colour of names, that'd work, but I'd still like to see something like a couple of traffic light indicators showing shield and armour levels, maybe green for >75%, orange for 50-75%, yellow for 25-50% and red for <25% ... they don't need to be huge and can be tagged into the name line like ... #@Needless Sacermendor ... with some shield and armour symbols.
Also I think everyone should be named ... even red dots ... it makes calling targets easier, obviously only when they're scanned and visible to squad, but when they are their name should show, the shield n armour symbols could give vague target intel and when YOUR reticule is on them you get their full health bars.
So you're only downloading small amounts of info about the majority of people (16 combinations of 4 colours on 2 symbols) rather than 2 numbers in the hundreds ... the server knows how many hitpoints everyone has, but it only needs to send out a couple of colours and 1 set of bars for the one you're aimed at and we retain good performance and a decluttered display.
Anyone with a repair tool or triage hives equipped or operating a logistics vehicle gets these extra shield n armour indicators for everyone and anyone not equiped to provide repairs could get them just for scanned enemies until they have a reticule on them to bring up hp bars |

Signed. When rep tool or Injectors or armor hives are equipped to a suit fitting the health bars should be visible when using that suit. You don't need them as much if your in an assault suit, you don't care who the strawberries are. |

I still carry a rep tool but the only time I use it is right after I stick someone to get the bars back. The lack of health bars is a real inconvience. I am thinking about swaping it for another hive. That is not what I want to do. This can be a real asset to a heavy in the heat of battle. |
