Not only that but it's the scouts man ... the scouts and once there is balance we won't have any of these issues . Delta should come with a SP or infantry SP refund so that a campaign for one is not needed .

CELESTA AUNGM Kang Lo Directorate Gallente Federation 259	Posted - 2014.09.08 19:02:00 - [19] - Quote Jace Kaisar wrote: Go into PC without Logi's and tell me how you do There's a term for the kind of player we're not seeing much of in the matches. It's "Artificer". Artificers were arguably 'invented' by this game---I say that because I can't remember of any of the other FPSs I've played actively encouraging players to take on the job of supporting and resupplying fellow players, using equipment you have to spend TONS of game-time just to earn and restock. The role is pretty weird and very rare. That's what makes Jace Kaiser's post pretty truthful (...and kudos to your character name, Jace. Nice New Eden style to it). Once your fellow players start trying to travel a LARGE game board like the PC boards, the "logistics" of transporting players efficiently, resupplying them without a Supply Depot around, and keeping armour repaired (because a CRU is too far away to allow half your squad to regen and catch up to you again)... the LOGI of Artificers becomes a necessity. Pub match maps are so compact, Logi expertise is not necessary. Useful, yes, and WELCOMED by your buddies, yes. But still NOT critically needy the way it is in PC matches. Since our logi gear is critically-expensive, players like myself will still stubbornly continue to be Artificers in Pubs---but we'll resort to the option of using just standard or advance support gear. Also, Pub Matches have long since melted down into an imp party, where the game-win or null-hack is almost becoming secondary, and what's primary is grabbing a cloak, knife or Sniper Rifle to "hunt the weak/ the repper/ the medic guy/ the equipment girl". Don't mistake it, we're still doing Logi work in your fights, but if I'm any example, we're not getting caught using those yellow-marking stuff as much, or walking as obvious targets behind heavies as much. I do player repping LESS, and do uplink planting early in match MORE, and rep vehicles OUTSIDE the fight more. I'm just not doing the HIGH-VISIBILITY logi tasks any more, not splurging away my logi suits and equipment as much. It's just not financially wise. And like the smartest EVE capsuleers, we gotta manage our fights like a financial business too, if we don't want to be stuck running hustles on fellow players to con some wallet ISK out of them. ehh, um...I don't know how Dust 514 will finish, but I know the one way I am NOT going to finish this game as is, POOR :roll:], LOL. Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne... No story can have life without writers and publishers.

The only part of this game a heavy is useless should be Ambush because of vehicle limit. No excuses, you're just bad otherwise.

Not true, they were abundant in Open beta when everyone was WP farming for there first Proto :D It's when people first discovered too many items on the field caused major lag, lol.
deezy dabest IMPERIAL SPECIAL FORCES GROUP 929	Posted - 2014.09.08 19:13:00 - [22] - Quote Pub logis are tired of getting shot in the back and being nothing more than a speed bump to the scout going after their heavy. It simply costs too much isk to lose 10 proto rep tools attempting to keep their heavy alive. There is a new rep logi being born from this but I will let you figure out what it is. If you want a logi now you have to get them in squad and convince them you are not going to lead them into a death trap where they get no rewards before dying.

Nah, it's just most players aren't very good and need every CPU/PG they can get to do battle with, they aren't wasting points on Hives, Injectors, and Links because none of those things will make there end game scoreboard look any less pathetic against vets going 30/0 like it's nothing.

If you want a logi now you have to get them in squad and convince them you are not going to lead them into a death trap where they get no rewards before dying. While PRO reps are obviously the best.. that does not mean they are needed in pubs I logi when no one else is active to do so and Heavies are active in squad.. If it is pub match, I will likely run a basic rep tool.. because I use a 'pub' logi fit Note I have Proto Logi gear... but don't feel my Heavies should be carried by it in pubs Mercs never seem to realize that hiding behind a sentinel with a core reptool is the logistics equivalent Of a Scout tossing Boundless RE's or that Assault stomping with Kaalakiota.. either way it's abusing PRO gear in a pub Yet Logi's feel exempt to this as they 'need' the equipment for support.. LIES it's a crutch If you can't be bothered to perform a squad support role..... then don't If you want to solo while performing a squad support role... don't cry when the others let you die If you want to run PRO reptools on basic/adv suits then I am glad the Scout killed you first.. If you still feel Logi's are lacking in combat compared to other suits then... 50 points to You Sir! A Logistics is only worth as much as the squad he is supporting... if you want to lonewolf a support role.. GL Innapropriate Irrelevence...

ADAM-OF-EVE Dead Man's Game 1626	Posted - 2014.09.08 19:39:00 - [27] - Quote logis doing their role are in my opinion currently the weakest survivability with the most expensive fittings costs. this is why i have been sat out here in the real world on the sidelines waiting for something to be done about it. my main focus in dust is the logi bro so when my role became virtually pointless (in my opinion) i had no choice but to stop playing it. there may be others out there with this same feeling. we are just waiting for our role to become viable again. i do play every now and then as other roles but its just not the same.

Don't worry, deez, I'm still around, at least a few nights a week. The heavies just need to call out their locations a little better, I'm usually busy trying to keep tactical control of the map and need a little kick in the butt to snap out of my uplink trance and follow them around a bit.

Crazy Cat Lady Opus Arcana Covert Intervention 197	Posted - 2014.09.08 22:47:00 - [29] - Quote We are a dying breed. I agree with alot of what you guys have said. I personally feel that Scout514, and the mass transition of Dusts player base into scout roles had a lot to do with this. 1. We lost a few logis in the suit respec 2. A large portion of players in our squads are Scouts - whilst it is possible to make a scout logi companion we aren't really needed like we used to be. 3. A large portion of reds are scouts- Logis have very little defense against scouts. We are slower, there is no way to set up a logi suit to be able to pick up all scouts, we are the first target and one shot kills with knives or shot guns means that there is no time for our partner to help keep us alive. 4. With the increases in scout related deaths the cost of running a logi is high $$$$$ Ps. I hate scouts.

Not to mention the fact that most scouts realize that killing the logi's is the best way to cripple the other team. If I see an Assault, Heavy, and Logi moving together, I'll go for the logi 10 times out of 10. Even if there are easier or closer targets. I'm a Spooky Scary Ghost Before you ask, yes this is me.
