Been playing heavies for about nine months now. And there's one thing that I have noticed get worse and worse over the progressing months. We become more and more useless. We are slower, we do less damage with light weapons that people assaults (even with proto suits). We have large heads to hit, we can't carry equipment, we strafe slowly and can't pick up enemies on it passive scanner very well. We got the commando suit. Every one agrees that it's useless. It has one viable use. Swarm and sniper. But swarm range is getting nerfed next patch so it can not even do that. Even so, the skills to be an excellent commando are more for people who use light weaponry, not heavies. We have a really long range gun which was nerfed for anti infantry purposes. Understandable. But we have this pebble hose that is effective bestat thirty meters. With a straffing opponent, out bullets start missing a lot more and we do next to no damage. Into of that, I have put on the 4 armor plates giving me 1800 ehp and I'm still dropped in two or three seconds even when straffing. On top of this, you've released a bunch of gear since uprising that is mire meant and iconic to mediums and light suits, so the enemy gets more toys to kill us with while we all have our very significant purpose two weapons.
We need more options.
We need a stronger or faster suit.
Give us some love please! |

I totally agree , I've never used a heavy but I've killed enough to know that they are underpowered . I'm not scared of them, I see one and I dive in to kill them. I just out strafe them and boom theyre dead. That hp buff wasn't enough , the hmgs need better range or damage, slightly . Ccp has a tendency to overdo buffs and nerfs. Maybe if they got 25% more range , 10% more accuracy, and 10 % more damage. Just to even the odds, cuz the AR does outgun the hmg. As a logibro Im amazed at how fast my heavies get mowed down sometimes even when I'm repping the w my hives and rep tool. There needs to be a better balance of classes, the heavy role and scout role are slowly deteriorating in my opinion, they're almost as useless a |

i think all they need now is to increase the bullet spread of the hmg in there in the optimal range aslong as the target is in the circle not on the dot they take good damage that would make the heavy alot better close range where i kill it most of the time lol |

The Heavy only need one tool and resource; their weapon.
He must be a big fat killing machine, just like in ancient times battlefield with swords and spears, you see that one guy dwarfing all others armed with an 6 foot battleaxe or club. You'd poop in your pants.
Now its easier to kill with light weapons than it is with heavy weapons.
Longer range, more damage and a few extra points of bonus damage against LAV's and especially dropships for the HMG would go a long way for heavies.
