Victor Moody Stahl Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 84	Posted - 2014.11.02 03:29:00 - [5] - Quote If you happen to need more of a reason than the above (which is a pretty good reason, IMO), then here's one: Allowing weapon swap after overheat completely removes the risk/reward of overheating weapons, and negates the skill involved with heat management. Quite frankly, I'd even go so far as to say that allowing this would actually reward overheating, when the current mechanics, both as-designed and as-intended, are supposed to punish overheating.

Shinobi MumyoSakanagare ZaShigurui Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 1334	Posted - 2014.11.02 03:51:00 - [6] - Quote Do you know how much Heavy QQ there would be , oh .. I see the tears flowing now as we speak . Everyone would just run those HMG's until they lock and automatically switch to their sidearm , no more cranking to make it cool down ... people would have a fit . Thank you Rattati , the DEV crew and the CPM for getting the job of 1.9 done .

Holstered? A rifle? An HMG? And while wearing a suit that stops bullets? Boycott Black Thursday!

Overheat applies to more weapons than just the HMG but it is quite obviously a balancing mechanic. Otherwise what would stop heavies chewing through their entire barrel of bullets walking along with pre wound up accurate fire? They could slaughter an entire army if given the chance. Hell even with overheat good heavies can slaughter entire squads. Do you not think that the overheat mechanic is a good thing? lol "Also I think knives are a good idea, big f**k-off shiny ones" "Guns for show, Knives for a pro" MY LIFE FOR AIUR!
CLONE117 True Pros Forever 865	Posted - 2014.11.03 22:24:00 - [17] - Quote ive been in many situations where ive fired my hmg into a single doorway packed full of enemy ppl. and id be the one to get chewed up and thrown out. the only thing over heat does is annoy the hell out of you at the worst possible moment. i cant even melee during that extremely long seize time. i think the clip size tagged along with reload is a big enough of a disadvantage. i dont think its good with the hmg. with weapons like the scrambler. i can see the need for that mechanic. but with the hmg. not really. and all im simply asking is to be able to switch to a side arm. when that over heat does happen. the hmg is the gun that is said to clear hall ways and everything not my smg. but with my use of the adv. the 425 clip size isnt big enough to kill entire teams in one go. most of the time it can take up to over half the clip to kill at the 15-20m engagement range for the hmg. the only time its killed fast is at shotgun range. and that doesnt happen to often from my experience.

Sinboto Simmons Bloodline Rebellion Capital Punishment. 6396	Posted - 2014.11.03 22:29:00 - [18] - Quote If you take a look at all the gear subject to things like overheat, low ammo, longer reload, or charge timers you'll find they tend to be more powerful 'special' weapons. Turrets, Mass driver, Scrambler rifle, Charge snipper, Nova knives, HMG, Remote explosives, Forge gun, ect ect ect. Full auto Forge gun: bad. Assault MD with Freedom damage: bad. Scrambler rifle with no overheat: bad. Tanks with cloak: bad. Rail rifle with no kick/charge: bad. Some of the stuff I listed have these boundaries for a reason, others have been outright REMOVED, I'm the last person to say the balance is perfect: but it could sure as hell be worse.
