A bit late to the party but here is my honest feedback where I have any opinion at all. For context I've been playing logistics since closed beta so I've been using those tools on a regular basis.
Drop Uplinks
- Increased spawn time, I do not like this at all. One of the reasons why I love/d playing Dust is because it is mostly non-stop action. Having to wait even more between deaths is a buzzkill for me.
Nanohives
- What was the reason to reduce nanites? I see no logical reason for it. The only hive that had too much was the Wiyrkomi Triage hive. I never even thought it was a problem anyway.
- I'm disappointed that the opportunity was not used to introduce a new nanohive at protype level (or an existing one modified). Currently the Ishukone Gauged is by far the best, 4 carried and max 3 deployed. I would have liked to see a variant with 4-5 carried and 1-2 max deployed.
Repair tools
- Again what is the rationale for reduced range and repair rate?
- The range of the Core Focused Repair tool, 7.5m, is simply too short.
- Still no installation specific repair tool (to keep supply depos alive from tank barrages), please bring the old A/7 back.
Active scanners
- I do not like that you have essentially removed the ability to do area sweep scans. This is a massive nerf to the scanner. If you are compelled to keep the instant scan then please at least consider widening the scan angles.
- Scanners are yes very powerful. However, I would have fixed them by buffing profile dampeners (so it would be easier to hide from them), and nerfing the scan duration, especially on the Duvolle Quantum.
Conclusions
I'm really sorry for not being more constructive but it is really hard seeing as most all equipments are getting a massive nerf. Overall I think equipment was fairly balanced as it was before. There were couple of areas that needed desperate improvements, uplink & hive spam, illogical WP rewards for low level gear to name a few, and they are still a problem. You changed things that in my opinion did not need fixing and skipped fixing the most important things that is wrong with equipment. |
