Hardest change I've ever made was my scout suit to a heavy suit. But, I can see the reason why Heavies are so integral to holding a point. It's kinda heady knowing you've got a logi suit behind you with a rep tool while you unload the bullet hose on the guys pushing in to take your point. However, I dislike not being able to jump over a piece of paper. :(
Unfortunately, my love affair with the Nova knives and SMG does not lead me towards running heavy suits often enough to be super effective. Oh well :)
I know. This has nothing useful in it, but it's just my thoughts. |

Fair enough. I adjusted from sniper to assault, then to logi, then to assault scout. It's fun. I'm sure that eventually the heavy fit will work out for me effectively :) |

I flanked everyone and gunned em down, heavies and PRO gear a like. SMG + Scout suit = scary. Especially if they have a ScR and use it to one shot your shields then switch to SMG. o.0
Scrambler rifles aren't always the best option with scouts. But the one shot to weaken is a good thought. |

I was wondering where you had gone, I remember you getting me with a headshot with your scrambler and thinking ARGGGGHHH!!! |

but as that i am a professional heavy
i made a scout alt (one must know his worst enemy )
an it has been a great experience
it really lvl'd up my heavy game i think more rush less
i do short flanks with my heavy now
but yeah it is good to think like a scout whe playing a heavy
but also playing like a heavy
do this adyou will be a unstopable force
I had originally planned to go into commando suits when they first came out so I've had points in heavy for a while. My Heavy game is in bursts, but I have learned a few interesting tricks that have transferred to my scout game. Over all, it's been a fantastic learning experience. |

calvin b wrote:Yes the jumping part does suck. Here is how to make the heavy fun. One get an LAV and have a really good driver 2. Grab three heavy friends with HMG's and tank the S*** out of the suits. 3. Drive around until you find a group of reds clustered up. Now reds see LAV they think they know what is about to unfold, but do they really. Drive the LAV as fast as you can right at them, at the count of three all heavies leave the vehicle and begin to spray anyone in sight. Most do not expect three heavies to jump out with HMG's spraying bullets, it so F***** hilarious watching them scatter and looking like sheep. It never fails, there is always those reds that have the look of deer in headlights. Shocked and amazed as three fat guys jump out of a clown car.
For even more insanity, strap RE's on the front and drive it straight at them. Bail and watch the dumb ass's shoot the car, easy +50's all around.
I ran reps on you on a match last night, you were holding a supply depot. Not enough heavies on the map to jump in a lav that time. |

I know. This has nothing useful in it, but it's just my thoughts. Same here, I'm quickly surprised by how quickly I adapted. But man this event is going to be looooong, I suck with an HMG, and passable with a FG. Forge sniping tower snipers will keep me coming back to this fit, only if they allowed a 1.5x zoom on this thing.
I do enjoy the forge gun, the glowing disco ball of death makes my day.  |

We're defending it and you don't even know bro.
I like running point defense in my scout suit, sometimes it's a blast, other times it isn't. lol. |

We're defending it and you don't even know bro. ^ (he keeps saying things that are true!) If I spec'ed into another suit, it'd be a heavy - I imagine vastly different things will be learnt playin each that would improve your game with both. It is difficult to imagine what is going through a heavies mind when I face them - its not like facing assaults though, a greater proportion of heavies seem to acknowledge their weaknesses, than med frames. Med frames are reliably overconfident. It's why I respect fatties as much as fellow scouts. I have similar thoughts about Heavies. I enjoy coming up against them when I am taking a remote point, some very cool battles evolve from these encounters  It's also fun defending a point as a scout with a Heavy as Backup/Bait, the dynamic that can happen in defence can become virtually unstoppable  Just try flanking that Fat kid, when a scout has his chubby back
Love it! I try to keep an eye on my heavies backs and they attempt to not shoot me in FW when I dart around in front of them to throw grenades. The downside is the insta-blend that can happen by running in front of a friendly hmg without noticing. But *knock on wood* I've only had one HMG death via friendly since they started friendly fire in FW. |
