Jet packs? HAH. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea as much as the next guy, but imagine, heavys would be flying death machines. LOOK IN THE SKY! ITS A BIRD! ITS A PLANE! NO, ITS SUPER HEAVY, WITH HIS TRUSTY BOUNDLESS HMG AND LOGISTICS SIDEKICK RIGHT AT HIS SIDE. YOU WILL NOT ESCAPE...well unless that person was me and I spray my hmg haphazardly into a crowd of people not killing a single one.

yes on jet packs, everybody loves jet packs, dont worry about heavies tho, they probably wont be able to fit them due to the fact, tht they are heavy.
If not jet packs then jet boots be just as cool.

Yes to jetpacks. CPU/PG requirements would be based off weight of suit, so scouts would be able to fit them fairly easily with minor compromises in their fittings. Medium suits would have to make major sacrifices to fit one. Heavies would have to stack complex CPU/PG enhancers just to fit one.
They should be lockable with swarms when the pack is active (and possibly for several seconds after as the jet cools down), and it should be possible to fire your weapon while flying (hip fire only and with a penalty to dispersion).
Ideally they would tie the jetpack fuel to dropsuit capacitors, but I don't expect to see those for a while.
Higher meta levels would increase flight duration.

Not a fan of jet packs but i think jump packs high trust very low duration with fast ish recharge could work it is essentially a mobility aid to get the high ground would be a bad idea to make it equipment as then its just one more thing super logies have over everyone else perhaps a new slot for specialized equipment that is suit specific for example one module that works for scout and assualt may not be used by heavy, logi either should not have this this slot or can only fit logi spec gear. |

I, too, support having Jump Packs over Jetpacks. Generally, Jump Packs are generally a faster double jump. Jetpacks in games are slower and make the user a bobbing duck.
I feel like there needs to be something to better separate Jump Packs and Jetpacks, though.
Jump Packs could give the user a small thrust in any direction (depending on the user's direction and action) that would propel the user about one story. In addition, the Jump Pack could be a "speed boost". If the user is running forward and uses the Jump Pack, he/she is thrusted forward instead of up. If the user is moving backwards, he/she is propelled backwards instead. This would be interesting to see for quick escapes/mobility, etc.
Jetpacks could move slower (like extended hovering instead of a boost), but could travel two stories overtime instead of one story in a short period of time. This would be more of out-of-combat type mobility.
I think both should have a similar, longer-ish recharge time.

I don't think there's any need to make them suit-specific; just build in movement penalties depending on the suit using them.
Scouts are lightest, so they get 100% of the possible benefits.
Mediums are a bit heavier, so they'd get only 75% of the possible benefits.
Heavies are... heavy, so they'd only get 25% of the possible benefits.
This penalty could even get down to how much Armor plating is attached, etc. (meaning Shields would be favored when using them- not sure how people would feel about this).

I think that the jetpack idea's cool and all but not a viable form of transport. A charge jump would work more effectively imo because running and jumping are based on stamina. A charge jump uses more stamina but gives more thrust. If jetpacks were to work you would need a fuel bar. Fuel could be replenished at supply depots. Just my thoughts on the subject. |

YEAHH JETPACKS, FLAMETHROWERS, AND THROWABLE NOVA KNIVES!!! WOO!!!
But in all seriousness, CCP seems to already have a lot of current balancing issues (look at vehicles!). Why not fix what's broke right now? Afterwards, why the heck not. But right now, they already have many balancing issues. In fact, the new rifles have worsened them.
And now the Forge Gun is little more than a dust collector, no pun intended.

You can balance this now, rejoice, get the new stuff and start whining again.
Or you can the new stuff, have some whining and then balance it in one go.
Not to mention that new options can actually add balance possibilities to already existing features. A now useless gun might be useful with a jetpack or something. |

whats the matter with ballence i think eveything is ballenced right now with an exception to teamwork, ofc u know teamwork is always either up or op, new conent is always good and jetpack as a new equipment would be awesome and dynamic, asking for new content is not stupid trying to ballence something that as ballenced as its going to get with half or more of the content missing is stupid |

Hmm, actually, looking back, throw-able nova knives COULD re-balance it...

I will also say, the jetpack Idea I like, but this would put ANYONE out in the open, it's like:
Me: I can use this jetpack to get to high ground -flies up in the air-
Random Redberry: ! -fires a shot- HEADSHOT
Me: -Dead in the air-  WTF??
And yeah, a flying heavy would be a bad idea xD
