So far Im liking what Im seeing with the equipment changes. These changes will go a long way to the equipment spam nonsense that is going on. Placing equipment (beyond supply depots) will have to take thought, which in turn makes it more tacticaly used..
A few more tweeks are still need to make the support logi more thoughtful about how he needs to handle his buisness are needed IMO:
1. Total placed equipment per player needs to be capped.
2. Placed equipment should disapear after some time has passed. 2 minutes on most sounds about right.
3. The nono injecter should have only x amount of uses per life.
4. The repair tool should be tied to the logis stamina bar. When your out of stamina, your reps stop. This will be especially needed with the changes to heavies being even bigger brutes than ever before. It is already takes alot of work and skill to take down a decent tag team, but after the changes it is going to be fruitless. |

Seriously MD is even more ****** by these changes, but it is a neccesary evil. The MD should have 3-4 times the ammo capacity to make it a sustained combat threat. |

Your logic is flawed because worse equipment will requires more spam to make up for it.
Only true logi's do real placement and if you ever knew a real logi in your whole dust career you would have never posted something so poorly thought out.
Posts like these let me know that in DUST a true logi is a rare animal indeed LOL, your cancer is entertaining. You think spamming equipment makes you a "true support logi"? Use your equipment as needed by yourself or your team is what a real logi do. I can not believe you mention to combat the changes put in place by CCP to fix equipment spam is to spam even more. Alll the changes I proposed are to weed out easy mode no skill equipment spam monkeys. These changes would do little to nothing to a real logi. |

Explain the reasoning behind it because it already takes to long to spawn in and rejoin the fight. All I am seeing is a lot of nerfing going on here with equipment!!!! 15 second spawn time on basic ones means that your better off spawning at the objective.. Even at ADV levels you are just better off using a CRU or objective. Hell depending on the game type and situation you'll get there fatser spawning at a far away point and taking those five extra seconds to call in an LAV
I believe CCP's vision of uplinks were to assist you in spawning in exactly were you wanted some of the times, not the mostly every time we have. This is due to equipment spam. Increased times allows those that are trying to push back those that are entrenched a fighting chance versus a spamtastic equipment team. As it is now, most battlefields have more uplinks than clones that can ever use them up. |

Take into consideration that it can take a minute or so to run across the map from your ground/mcc spawn, after waiting for your 10 seconds to spawn in. Doesnt 10-15 secs and spawning in exactly were you want seem like a luxary? We have just been spoiled by uplnik spam, and this change goes towards alot of real game balancing issues. |

When all they are really saying in battle is "What there's no uplink? Now i have to run all the way there" "Need ammo"and "Need reps".
You can't have it both ways,either you want effective support or you don't. (supporting this nerf means you don't)
Now pick one...
Let me give you a class on how to be a support logi with real tactics:
Your squad is rolling up to a complex, drop a safe uplink.
Now your closer to an objective, drop a second uplink, hive and scan
Get in behind the heavy and start support fire then swith to reps.
The engagement ends, your team regroups up the uplink/nanohive and reps.
This is how the support logi do.
How do any of these changes affect this scenario? Answer: it doesn't
These changes make using your equipment take thought and skill. If any of you other logis need some classes to learn how to do your job, send me an in game message. |

@emtbraincase:
Equipment spam isn't going to be more, but I do agree it will happen more often. That is a good thing. This means a logi will have to be proactive and have battlefield awareness as his equipment is depleted.
Instead of having infinite spawns/ammo/rep hives covering every objective for the entirety of a match that next to never depletes, some of these ihives will actually disapeer.
The slow spawn times on uplinks gives players a chance to kill the hostiles present, then the uplinks without getting shot in the back before he can destroy the equipment.
The shorter rep tool range means the logi will be slightly more visible to his enemies, giving them the reasonable means to counter him and his Heavy. |
