Assaults and Logis will be about as rare in 1.8 as a commando is in 1.7. I'm calling it now, DUST514 in 1.8 will be the equivalent of 'Supersize vs Super-Skinny', only instead of Supersized Mc Donalds meals and KFC Family Buckets for one vs Celery Sticks and Graham Crackers, we will see HMG's and Core Locust Grenades vs Breach Shoutguns and Remote Explosives.

I agree with you OP. I've been a logibro since closed beta and I will probably still have at least a logi setup on my main because my corp expects it, but overall I think I'll be playing more Caldari commando in 1.8
Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

I'm all over that bandwagon. Assaults are (and will be) the least versatile dropsuits in the game, why would anyone that has any sense skill them other than just to prove some moot point?

real logies will still be logies because we need them, there will be gunfighters that don't want to be slower than balls and the assault will actually give them an edge over logies, there will be alot more scouts because the ninja in us all will finally have a chance to come out.
I can see heavies being a new abused fit though, no bonus to heavy weapons and heavy weapons are crap, we'll be seeing alot of tanked heavies with rail rifles and combat rifles.
Although CCP logibro said that the rail rifle will be hit with the nerf bat in 1.8 and there will be other changes to the rifles and guns in general so maybe heavy weapons will actually be useful.

Nope. Well probably see a lot more heavy and min logi combos though. That, i can assure you of. Assaults will be balanced, and logi slayers will be forced to help their team. Scouts will be viable, and commandos will no longer be a joke. Im not quite sure what the problem is

if we get a respec ill go gallogi, gallassault, amarr heavy, and caldari scout probs.
scanners will be godsends since they'll be rare, the gallassault turns the AR into CQC king with bonus(minmatar will prolly get nerfed), amarr heavy is the tankiest heavy(has like 20 more hp potential than gallente) with best resistances while the crap regen 900 shield will still make me a little more self reliant, caldari scout just cus i'd like to have decent sprint with a little more shield than minnys.

The numbers out scouts and sentinels (there are commandos, remember) will stay the same; just assaults and logis will complain about them more.

Did you not see the amarr and min assault bonuses? Yes the gallente/caldari suits got hosed, but they aren't many of then tbh. I'll see one, 1 in 4 games if it's a ck.0, the lower tiers almost never. Lesser galassaults are a bit more common but gk.0s are unicorns.

"This thread reminds me of all the tanks are gonna be doomed!" Threads before 1.7 launched. IE, the community was aware of the specs but they either A) ignored the hardeners and passive hp bonuses thinking an extra 1000-2000 armor mattered without high resistance hardeners or B) were trolling the community.
As much as I don't want to believe that CCP will go overboard, they are going to almost surely go overboard with the changes.
The passive resistance on heavies is going to make them chew up medium suits. They will need healz! people naively say. You don't need heals on a heavy, I can run 6.8k isk heavy machine gun fits that can down quite a few people and chew up proto assaults/logis without reps and that's before the passive resistances are added. You don't have to have active repairs to kill more than you die in heavy suits, you just have to have a positive K/DR and you are well on your way to pulling your weight on your team if you are doing this at objectives.
Light suits though pitiful at the moment I expect to see in 1.8 running around with militia shotguns and cloaks. Unless there is a huge delay between uncloaking and firing, players will just cloak right up to targets and make their rag doll fold in half. From what CCP has shared, the cloaks can last for many seconds which gives scouts plenty of time to sprint to a new target in cityscapes. If you think scout shottys are bad now, they will be a part of the FOTG along with any sort of heavy in 1.8.
Its not hard to see when we do get the stats what is going to be overpowered, like that of Rail Rifles. People were likewise saying, well that .2 seconds is a big deal! Not big enough to ignore the massive effective range advantage over other rifles and the same damage as a freakin' breach assault rifle.

That's ok, somehow people didn't see tanks514 either, when they were given much more speed, heavy resistance hardeners, and passive regen for armor tanks while giving shield tanks 2000 regen per second on actives, all while nerfing av across the board and there were constant tank QQ threads saying tanks were going to be unusable, because this community has the foresight of a mole.
One thing I have learned about the community of this game since I started playing last summer. Most of the community didn't invest SP into arithmetic and game theory. |

I think you are wrong.
Med frames will always have an important place in the battlefield. They are Balance. They are versatility. Scouts are fast and have cloaks.But have a limit to how much HP they can have. Not everybody can play successfully with 450 HP OR LESS.Everything sounds fancy until you think of a full enemy proto squad with Prroto scanners on gallente Logis vs you.... Heavies will be Damage sponges and powerful offensive behemoths,but they are fitted with the WORST of all E-war stuff. They will never detect anything besides near Shooting un-dampened Med frames and other heavies, while every single other personknows where they are at all times,which is, by definition in an FPS, the ultimate disadvantage. MEd Frames will still be able to transform their suits to be the thing they need to be, from stealth ,to HP tanked.
From the Minmatar Assault with High speed and DAmage modded Combat rifle, To the HP tanked Cal and Gal Heavies, To the useless Amarr Assault that loyalist will still use for the lulz,to the Zerg Storm Summoning Amarr logi to the Flawless Radar Gallente Logi; i doubt MEd frames will dissapear....

I think initially sure, there will be an influx of whatever people think is going to get the best bonuses. People tend to chase whatever they feel will be the next FOTM.
Give it some time and everything will balance itself out, people will see the need for a logi even if they are not as effective. Eventually people are going to get tired being slow as hell and weak as hell and will find their way back to the Assaults.
And if 1.8 does launch in March we may even get another balance sweep before fanfest, who knows what will change. |

Maken Tosch wrote:Yes, let's all ignore the assault bonuses and logi bonuses and pretend heavies and scouts will be the next flavor of the month.
i pretty much ignore them right now, they aren't big game changer and won't be later, a cloak and passive resistance on a tanky suit (That's % reduction which means the more shielding and armor aka a heavy suit the more effective EHP heavies will have).
Who cares about rate of fire if your mag dump doesn't kill them/you can't see them.
Game theory has to be approached from the bigger picture not this, "Well I can think of one way to counter this, that is ineffective against many other things."
I know adv/proto forge guns can wreck militia tanks, this doesn't make tanks balanced towards av.
I know sniper rifles and CQC can wreck a rail rifle some of the time, this doesn't make rail rifles balanced.
I know you can outrange a combat rifle with a rail rifle/laser rifle/sniper rifle, this doesn't make combat rifles balanced.
Balance is only achieved when weapons and suits have trade offs that make them relatively effective, imbalance occurs when the pros outweigh the cons to a strategy. Imbalance is what creates FOTM, why? Because it's simply more effective then other options, which from a game perspective wastes time spent on under powered assets and makes for a much more shallow game for the players.
Hell this whole game currently is a pointless meta game. You can easily burn holes in the wallets of proto spam with gun game and thinking. Everyone though tries to race to proto gear so that they can lose money... Oh you went 32/2? Half those suits were frontline... and you made how much isk after losing 200k+ in suits?
Oh but you need proto gear to get districts to farm isk in PC! Yeah but if you didn't spam proto gear you would never need to district farm in the first place.
This whole game is a catch 22 competitively.

0(OP) | 1(easy) | 2(normal) | 3(hard) | 4(UP)
Tanks are at 0 Assault/logi are at 2 DS/sentinel is at 3 Commando are 3.5 Scouts are 4
After 1.8
Tanks are at 1 (maybe) Assaults/Sentinels are at 2 Logis are 2.5 DS/Scouts/commandos are at 3
So to you I say scouts being hard mode is giving real scouts a break.

Yes. You get it. Completely. Though I'd rank some of the other things differently, but you are completely correct about the scouts.

I bet you this is gonna happen.
*Someone looks at the scout stats, thinks of it as a light assault*
*specs into it in 1.8*
*Plays it like an assault (walking straight down hallways, always taking the most direct route etc etc)*
*Gets murdered from trying to take on squads of 3+ people*
*rages*
*comes to the forums to complain*
It'll happen, I'm calling it right now.

Probably will because it seems that is how they play now, not much adapt or die more like complain and cry. Scouts aren't medium frames or they would be called medium so trying to use one as such is like racing a Lambo in Honda Civic. Play the suit's strengths.

As a scout it's not always as simple as that (1.8 could hopefully change that) but you're right either way. Even real scouts will dabble in "Light Assault" fits at some point in there career but even then they still play as scouts. An influx of scouts could mean a lot of work for R O N 1 N lol.

i must of missed the memo heavy weapons useless? tell that to all the proto suits who die to my templar and std hmg combo.
im already seeing more and more heavyies. you can tell the new fat boys easyily. they dont move much and let you shot them in the face and barely dent your shield unless they are in a group.
im sure heavyies will be FOTM right up till people get sick of calling in a lav every time they want to get anywhere. i do hope they ban light weapons from sentinal suits. |

I'm calling it now, DUST514 in 1.8 will be the equivalent of 'Supersize vs Super-Skinny', only instead of Supersized Mc Donalds meals and KFC Family Buckets for one vs Celery Sticks and Graham Crackers, we will see HMG's and Core Locust Grenades vs Breach Shoutguns and Remote Explosives.
that would be the most beautifull thing ever

Nyan fielding squads of gal-scouts would make me cry.
Considering the buffs to other dropsuits, the new stats seem fine - but I don't want it to get some kind of FoTM status. I think the Shinobi event awakened a lot of people's inner Scout.
You probably don't know me. But next time you get gunned down or exploded by a Valor scout...check the name.
