Your idea is bad and you should feel bad
The problem isnt just the suits speed but a mix of different factors such as brick tanking being so easy to pull off and cloaks being a broken concept so to get balance first we need to either heavily tweak or just remove cloaks, tweak armor plates since they give so much health with such a low drawback, and yes tweak the speed a bit while at the same time better designing the maps
The map bit is the important part since a scouts mobility should be its greatest draw but just running around like speedy gonzales is lazy design when you consider installations could have a veritable maze of duct work and narrow passages only a scout could fit through
I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world.

Talking about me? Ive been mainly a medium suit player since day one since I like the versatility that its supposed to have and only really used light suits in the past as a sort of extra challenge to my usual play style
Think of it like training with weighted gear, when the extra weight comes off you are that much better

Ive been mainly a medium suit player since day one since I like the versatility that its supposed to have and only really used light suits in the past as a sort of extra challenge to my usual play style Think of it like training with weighted gear, when the extra weight comes off you are that much better -or- you could use the suit for what it's designed for....what would a SCOUT suit be used for i wonder.... Hmmmm SCOUT, SCOUT sorry i can't think of it right now. There is a suit mean for your ASSAULTing purposes....what was that ASSAULTing class called again? Oh yeah! ASSAULT! I actually remembered that one!
Note I said light suit and not scout suit, I dont use a bunch of SP on something Im going to play only now and then and a standard level light frame worked for my purposes back before they got super buffed
Anyway this goes back to what I said at first, the problem with scouts right now isnt entirely in the suits its in modules and equipment and how they blend with the suit and to fix the role you need to tweak those first and done right youll end up with a quick but fragile suit that can use a cloak to cross open ground but the cloak drops when you get shot and can squeeze through places in installations other suits need to take the long way around
Oh and taking away any suits primary weapon slot and leaving it with just a sidearm is ridiculous, it was ridiculous when people wanted that to happen to logis and its ridiculous now
Maybe, and this is just a maybe, the only suit that should have a side arm only is the pilot suit if its ever finished and thats only because a pilots primary weapon is its vehicle
