Oh and the fact the Matari doesn't get a bonus for the hmg kinda sucks, would be a way to make it a viable option, right now I only beat other heavies due to skill, experience, and positioning.
Wow I had no idea how much being a scout effected my play style.
its more of a hit and run suit, and ya it would be good and make sense if they had a bonus with the hmg since it's their races heavy weapon. Being able to use it better, something like having better range or rpm

exactly it's like the Minmatar assault buffed 3x up but still plenty slower .

Like I have said to others, try out the militia versions of each of the new sentinels.It's enough to get an idea of how each one is gonna work.

I'm purposely not logging in on my main to avoid skilling into anything until nerfs/bug fixes come in.
hopefully no nerfs to heavies, but ya it looks like CCP is actually doing something fast with the hot fixes to work on the new issues that came in 1.8

Jumping, strafing, evading, flanking, using every height advantage I can find.
Brick tanking sucks. The suit is slow enough already and has the inherent HP to compete with the thickest Medium frames, so why not use some speed to close in on engagements and use the HMG's DPS to your advantage instead of bricking it and trying to be the team's best bullet sponge?
exactly, before 1.8 I was a scout and using the real scout tactics (stuff we scouts use to do before cloaking came along) works fine with the Minmatar Sentinel. Still would like to see in an increase on the range for the HMG though, maybe just as a bonus or possible skill for the Minmatar Sentinel.

Still would like to see in an increase on the range for the HMG though, maybe just as a bonus or possible skill for the Minmatar Sentinel. I'm not in 1.8 yet, but I've been doing it with MLT Heavies and a STD HMG for a while. Total cost 2,880 ISK and putting down a 2.0 KDR with it. (My MLT Scout gets me killed a lot though.) I bait people into my range. Throw a bullets their way, let them identify me and try to use their range advantage, duck into cover, wait, wait, let their impatience and thirst for Heavy blood to force them in to try to seal the deal, then pop out, strafe hard and wide and paint them up through their audio ports. Don't let me find a large round column to use for cover - it's Game Over for those inquisitive little reds...
mwahahahaha perfect
