WHY?
Like the OP says, scouts deserve something that is scout-exclusive. It's supposed to be a specialist suit.
Jealous? Want a cloak? You can have one. Just go change into a scout suit.
And to stop the re-re-rehash: No, not everything is usable in all suits, so your 'should' is completely unjustifyable.
There are heavy-only items, so it's perfectly justifyable to have scout-only items.

I would concede that maybe Scouts should be able to fit them the "easiest" and reap the most benefit for using one, but if I want to "gimp" my Heavy Commando Suit with a cloaking device and only have enough CPU left for two sidearms, then so be it!
I want to be able to 'gimp' my scout, by fittinga forge gun on it.
When that is allowed,
then you can have a cloak on your commando suit. |

Cloaks should and must be available to anyone.
?"Must"??
You dont get to just throw claims like that without justification. particularly as a CPM.
You have no justification for your "must" claim.

Cool. I'd like to put a forge gun on my scout. Can we get this moving to land right about the time the cloak does?
it makes sense that a heavy frame can fit weapons that would be too large for smaller frames
I agree with you.
It makes no sense to be able to fit a forge gun on a scout.
JUST LIKE IT MAKES NO SENSE TO BE ABLE TO FIT A CLOAK ON A HEAVY.
Or anything other than a suit specifically designed to be easily cloaked.
They have a word for that.. I think its a "scout".

I'd rather see a scout type II suit

I almost never use grenades.
Pistols, knives, and REs usually.
(although lately, AR as well. sigh)

Or does it make more sense that a Heavy with the needed CPU and PG already on it should be able to? The ONLY way it makes sense on the Scout is if, due to having less of a surface area to cover combined with special "bonuses" that are totally made up it is somehow able to. !
Yes, exactly. The suit is supposed to have special bonuses.
Read the scout dropsuit description sometime. They're supposed to ALREADY HAVE IT!
*THE SUIT*, specifically!
The suit is described as,
Quote:
The Scout dropsuit is a lightweight suit optimized for enhanced mobility, multi-spectrum stealth ...
This high-tech suit is coated in adaptive camouflage, a thin layer of bio-hermatic membranes interwoven with microscopic optical sensors that control millions of individual pigment ferro-crystals
Clearly, from the game's very beginning, some kind of visual cloak was envisioned, and it was envisioned as being SCOUT-ONLY, because of specializations inherent in the dropsuit itself.
Not even "light frame", but scout, specifically. |

No it says it's optimized for it, not that it's EXCLUSIVELY for it.
you seem to be having a reading comprehension problem.
It says it was "(optimized for stealth)", as a general case statement. that's not the cloak specific part.
It then says it has an optical camoflage layer.
That is the sort of thing required for visual stealth to work.
No other suit has it. Therefore, no other suit gets visual stealth. |
