CQC is will be dominated by heavies. Open battlefields will be dominated by tanks. Anywhere else will be the hunting grounds for imvisible scouts.
Where does the medium frame fit in, here? Logis can only run one type of equipment, really. Assaults are confined to one type of weapon and their bonus is laughable compared to the commandos.
It's funny how 1.8 is going to be the exact opposite of most of Uprising. The niche roles will get their revenge, but I still want a good balance.
Logis should not be punished for running other equipment types. Reconsider how much of a nerf equipment is getting. This much of a nerf is not warranted, but the bonuses are a good idea.
Assaults should be better than they are. Honestly, they should have a damage bonus, too that is 1% less/level than the commandos. I feel their hp regen and speed make up for this.

They are not punished for carrying different equipment types they are rewarded for using their races equipment. The stats of the equipment doesn't go down when on a logi so it isn't a punishment but the stats for certain equipment goes up and that is the reward for specialization.

Can you provide a link to where they said that all equipment stats do not go down on a logi? Last time I checked, the logi class only gets an equipment CPU/PG bonus, and depending on the race they only get a bonus on one type of equipment that makes it equivalent to 1.7 stats

Ding ding ding!
In no way does the addition of specializations and (slight) nerfing of other equipment somehow make the other equipment not worth using on anything other than the specialized frame. Cmon guys, quit the hyperbole.

When compared to how the other suits perform with the equipment and all being on the same level in 1.8. In 1.8 the baseline stats for all equipment (not including the cloak) are the same until put on that races suit and then it receives a bonus. Being in a logi suit in 1.8 will enhance one equipment type per race, the other equipment stats do not change up or down. Punishment would be that if I put an uplink on my Min logi it would do less than the stats and it doesn't do that, it stays the same. They are trying to balance the role of logi and how equipment performs.

Fallacy
You don't have to take advantage of the racial bonuses to make the specializations worth it. All logis are still getting 25% reduction to equipment fitting costs and its not like repair tools don't work if you're not Minmatar or something. SImilarly Assaults still get that 25% reduction to weapon fitting costs, if you want to say armor tank with a rail rifle there's nothing stopping you from putting one on a Gallente or Amarr assault suit.
The only bonus you really need to take advantage of is the class bonus, the racial bonuses are if you want to be extremely specialized but its not like those are the only viable fits.

I was looking at the gaI assault stats.. just disappointing. I don't want to be forced to run AR due to my suit. People cry when you say heavies shouldn'tweild light weapons due to their dilusional thought of what diversity is, 1.8 is narrowing choices down, trying to force players into roles, rather than rewarding players for playing a role.

The only two medium frames that will be horrible will be the Minmatar Assault and Caldari Assault. Just terrible. The Caldari because of the crappy bonus, (reload bonus? No!) and the Minmatar Assault will be terrible because it is actually being nerfed in 1.8.

Uplinks will still be good, Nanite Injectors will still be good, Repair Tools will still be good.
The only piece of equipment that was heavily nerfed was the Scanner.

on a specialized suit they will perform as good as they do now. Every other suit will take a hit. I don't care much but at least know the facts when you come to argue. |

I don't think it'll be much of a problem. From what I understand is that each race has it's own bonus on their piece of equipment. I do feel ya man. We are so use to not having any racial equipment bonuses, but we will prevail and adapt to changes.

Derp.
I never said that their stats weren't lowered, only that their new stats don't make them suddenly useless on the field for the non specialized suits. As I said, new stats or old stat - the Uplinks, Nanite Injectors, and Repair Tools are still going to be extremely useful tools and that the only piece of equipment that was heavily nerfed was the scanner.
It's because I know the facts that I'm not going around on the forums claiming that logis are only going to be able to effectively use one piece of equipment.
Do you understand what I'm saying now?

Ill run my assault like a scout, be undetectable and wreak havok....like ive been doing all along. its the player, not the game.
Also I can still fit 900 hp on my assault. There is plenty of room for medium suits.

You will still get a massive reduction to the required CPU/PG for any type of equipment, serving the purpose of a logi.
Look, new eden as a whole mostly has item that are not exceptional without a bonus, dust has been the odd child out for a while. I am presonally very happy that CCP is doing this. It makes each logi unique, and it also makes the logis as a whole more valuable.
As far as the assault suits, yes I totally agree, they should nerf all weapons by 10-15% and then give the assaults a 10-15% bonus to their racial weapon. Once again, it will promote variety, reflect the essentials of new eden, and give assaults a unique but valuable role.
While there is no better place to be wealthy than the Gallente Federation, there is no hell worse for the poor either.

The sad thing is that two of the racial logis ARE getting punished. If I am Amarr, I can run all of my equipment slots with uplinks and they will all be badass. If I am Caldari, I can run all my equipment slots with nanohives, and they will all be badass. If I am Gallente, am I really going to run more than 1 or 2 scanners? I personally run Minmatar, am I going to run 4 freaking rep tools? Nope. Huge advantage to the Cal and Amarr Logis. Huge nerf to the Min logi, and a slight nerf to the Gal logi.

+1. Made me laugh, I don't know why.
On topic afraid to say I agree with the others. I'll be running Gallente for the scans, but I'll still be using a needle and repper. If not more so as the scanner will be more situational but a vital tool nonetheless. |

Honestly, every race has the same issue so no one is becoming op (at least not without trial and error)
A Minmatar Logi with a dual healing rep tool with increased range and rate will make his squad far more effective than before. Plus he'll have 3 more equipment slots to use so he'll have an uplink, a needle, and a hive if he fits properly.
Racial bonuses are just that: BONUSES
they add to roles that are specialized but mixing and matching is all part of the game. Some day I'll see an Amarr Sentinel with a Plasma cannon and flaylock pistol and who's shield tanking.
Crazy, but unique as the game should be
It's time for MILLITA MONTH!!!

WTF? No room for Medium Frames?
Dude, if you seriously think Assaults and Logis are not gonna have a role you must be either (a) bad, (b) awful, (c) absoltuely terrible, or (d) all of the above.
Seriously, L2P before posting nonsense like this. This game isn't Rock-Paper-Scissors. Heavy suits will die just as often to scouts as scouts to heavies, as much as heavies to assaults and logis to heavies. There's this little thing called "skill".
I know you've been a vet for a long time Charlotte, but all I've ever seen from you is QQ on the forums and never anything to back it up in game.

It will mean Amar and Caldari Logis will be the suits to wear. Fit a couple pure uplink ADV suits and a couple pure hive fits to lay out equipment as you did before. Then make an Amar fitting with rep tool, needle, and scanner. It will be far more survivable than the squishy Minmitar so you'll actually get more healing done before you die. Make it Gallente if you want to pay for a third racial suit so you can scan better.
You can be nearly as effective in 1.8 as before with just another 5m SP investment. |

The fitting cost reduction is a huge buff to the logistics role. It means that for equipment you don't have a bonus to you can cram in a higher level version than an assault or scout can while not gimping your tank or weapon. It means that logistics suits are the best at using any kind of equipment, *and* they're the absolute best with one particular kind of gear. I'm still going to run Minmatar logi, and I'm still going to be dropping hives and racking up my +10s. Between these changes and the higher TTK it might finally mean I can focus mostly on logi work.
This also means that overall, equipment spam won't be as much of a dominant tactic. In particular with uplinks. The slower spawn times will mean you can't be absurdly aggressive with the placement, because you can't rely on the guys spawning to keep it alive. This is going to have a pretty big impact on the pace and feel of the game, and I think it's going to be a lot of fun. |

They are not punished for carrying different equipment types they are rewarded for using their races equipment. The stats of the equipment doesn't go down when on a logi so it isn't a punishment but the stats for certain equipment goes up and that is the reward for specialization.
Which is a bad idea which leads to imbalances. In EVE all logistics class vessels have the same ship and role bonuses which make them better at the logistics role in general not specific niche aspects of it.

Doing the neck-beard thing I can see why the Equipment nerfing was done but this Faction Logi locking was the wrong approach. It should have been small universal bonuses with another small or moderate bump in a specialization.
This isn't going to hurt my Winmatar Medic so much as it will everyone else who doesn't have the Frame skill at five or uses another race. Hopefully the Devs will eventually see this. A good first draft but the produce is going to need some serious polishing.
