Really blues, come on man!!! I picked up on how important equipment like this was almost immediately. Where these players are coming from and why they don't get how important uplinks can be is beyond me. As a new player, you should be able to play for a half hour and realize this is an important thing to do. I think people just want to fit one thing and nothing else ever. This game is more akin to TF2, where you have different niches each suit and weapons fit in. You change your suit to fit the situation you will be facing. I feel people expect it to be like COD where you usually pick your favorite load out and then you run that forever.
Also it takes less than two minutes to look stuff up on the internet.
When I started playing, I was like,"Oh man this is a more robust game than I'm used to, I need to learn more to make informed deciscions!"
Google google google
"Oh I see! You can place useful equipment on the map to help support your teammates! And they have a type of suit geared toward this? It is on!"

Uplinks are the most important thing in this game, they win/lose matches. Its very befitting that they don't get used easily. Dude really? I'm not saying they should run proto links, please. Basic militia link placed somewhere 40-50 meters away from an objective gets people back in the burn zone quicker with the real uplinks. C'mon man!!!!!
Actually, most starter fits can't fit a Militia Uplink, because of the ungodly amount of CPU/PG it consumes. And any uplink that isn't -32% respawn time is basically useless, especially against a smart team.
Do what I do. Don't rely on the blues for uplinks. Supply them yourself. Not only do you get a ridiculous amount of WP for it, you contribute to your team the most and backpack those stupid mother f*ckers to victory!

Yea I was playing a domination match and no one had uplinks. I was playing with my alt and he's all assault. I just left the match. There's no way in hell we can make a defensive stand if we have to trek over that large bowl just to get to objective alpha each time the white light greets us.

I'm just saying even a cheap link 40-50 meters away from the objectives, nine second spawn time is better than running from the ground spawn or MCC to get better links back on the field.
I guess they really should step up the tutorials for new players.

Well maybe one of the starter fits should come with a special uplink... So newbies get used to it.
Also if you are putting down the first uplink for an objective leave it about 120-160m away. Too many scanners and scouts will find you at 40m from the objective and spawn camp. Sure put the second one closer, bu you want to essentially third the distance with each link.
Also offset it from a straight line run between objectives.
I only have STD suits but I do open the game with a R-9 scout with ADV stamina module to get those first two uplinks in.
The flip side is even more frustrating where you see someone spam 20 links in a confined area. |

My alt is all assault. That's what he is born to do. He hasn't specced into anything that is non assault related. Truthfully, if we are on a team of 16 and no one has uplinks, I think we are going to have more problems than just having no uplinks in a match. Another reason why I left. The team probably got slaughtered.

how is an uplink not related to assault? I assault a position, teleport fresh guys , and kill anyone who interferes with the hack.

Really blues, come on man!!!
I've totally noticed this the last 3 days I've been playing. It's like absolutely no one in my team (not my squad) even deploys a single uplink.
The answer is simple. No one is running anything but militia gear (as can be verified by the kill feeds/ kill screens). So no one is running them because they don't have bpos.
It's a stressful matter. (just my thoughts.)

It's because most players are really, really stupid. I spelled out how to get 1000+ wp every match with just mlt gear by dropping uplinks on a QQ thread and I was told I was a liar. Well, you can only show someone what to do so many times. They suck, and I can live with that. And the QQ is awesome!
