Devs... players... passers by rubber necking at this train wreck... ANYONE, have any inkling when the HMG will be fixed??!!?? The 2 NEW rifles have made the OLD (and STILL broken) HMG even more of a joke! I find myself less and less drawn to this game and the Heavy class into which I specced.
But what should I do, spin the roulette wheel and see which class it lands on to spec into next, only to have that class nerfed into obsolescence with the next update (nod to you AV'ers at the moment). It's truly a crap shoot which class will get hit next, and that's a gamble I'd rather not take. No, I'd rather enjoy the class that drew me to the game... the class (and weapon) into which I've invested millions of SP.
(Removes reading glasses, closes rant notes folder, and quietly steps away from the podium.) So with that said, anyone have any indication... any word at all on HMG repairs, or new heavy suits for that matter? (Don't even want to look at the rant folder on that subject right now!) Bro do you even Heavy? Seriously though, the HMG is in a d*mn fine place right now, and if you can't kill with it you need a new suit. When was this "d*mn fine place" implemented? Maybe I missed something.
In the last patch dude? Haven't you been playing/on the forums? The heavy suits are god powerful right now. Huge pools of HP, and they tweaked the HMG so that it actually works now. Boundless HMG's kill everything instantly. Burst HMG's can fricken two shot you. (two bursts). And my standard HMG/heavy suit just wrecks 70% of everything I come across in close quarters. (Advanced suits and lower) If I get behind a proto suit and unload there very beatable too. In my honest opinion heavies are working as intended right now.

You now have a cone and a 20% boost in rate of fire. in it's optimal, the only thing's that can hope to beat you are grenades, RE's, and tanks. and two of those will only get you after you killed whatever threw them down, if you're at low health. Yes, but when did this happen? I've seen no fixes on this. I haven't been on this game as much during the holidays (combination of busy-ness and plain old apathy with the game) and when I was on I didn't even waste my time pulling out the heavy suit much. The last time I ran heavy for any substantial period of time, it was all combat and rail rifles making short work of EVERYTHING! after the actual patch. like a week maybe? it was a hotfix basically. Ok. Well maybe I'll give it another go now that I have more time. Like I said, I haven't run heavy in a while. I've been running other suits that I'm minimally specced into and frankly don't enjoy as much. I could be wrong about the HMG in its current state, I'm not afraid to admit that. I'm not infallible. But the last time I ran my heavy/HMG substantially, it just became a frustrating waste of time and ISK.
Just use a standard heavy suit with a standard HMG. Two complex armor reppers, and maybe a damage mod. Suit will cost about 20k isk, and if you cant go at least 1:1 in that suit your doing it wrong. (Though its capable of going 20-0 solo as ive done before)
