heh
I remember that.

Kind of what it needs to go back to. If they have to nerf the HMG from there, increase heat build up, reload speed, and rescind the HP buff. The whole idea of a heavy was to have larger HP and more firepower at the cost of mobility. Heavies need to be heavies.

Nah, don't rescind the HP buff.
It's a good thing.

Heavies are actually scary in CQC, unlike they were before.

Having the current heavy with the Replication HMG would be OP. They tried to balance things out by making heavies the most SP intensive. Before the wipe, all we saw were heavies.

Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

On the rare occasion I actually get pitted against those of similar skill and equipment, the HMG is rather fun, despite all the frustrating problems. I've yet to use the AR on my fat suit since I played Chromosome.
