I played this game since chrome as a heavy, and all these nerfs are not making any sense.
1. you nerf the damage the HMG does to shields, which turns out to make a Cal Sent the hardest one to kill with the HMG
2. you buff the over heat time, so that way we over heat even faster, you can barely hold down the trigger now maybe kill 3 people then you have to let go.
All these nerfs are so annoying I can barely get any kills the only place right now a heavy is any use is Dom since ccp nerfed there range, and there damage twice. The only people who were complaining about the heavy's being to overpowered were scouts and people in militia gear. I am a heavy that no one really knows but I only use adv gear in pubs so that way people will not yell at me for using proto. Sometimes the kill charts show a heavy getting the most kills because people wouldnt stop throwing themselves at you.
Is there anyone else who feels like heavy's are just being targeted because everyone thinks it takes no skill to play them, and would like ccp to stop nerfing the heavy to a useless piece of armor on the battle field.

The HMG needed more heat buildup. Instead of a fitting reduction which heavies don't really need, they should have a heat reduction bonus.

ok so first, Cal sentinels are easy to kill, because you just need to either
A) Flux then shoot
B) controlled fire until dead or switch to sidearm for kill
C) Sidearm to weaken, HMG for kill

secondly, I kill whole squads with a militia HMG on my Minmatar Sentinel without overheating and in 1 clip

Lmao
I will forever reference this whenever someone complains about Overheating to fast.
