If equipment spam is sacrificed at the altar of a better Dust, I say let the killings begin! 
Sorry, as much as I value team gameplay (and your particular style, NDN, of filling in the gaps is very close to my own), I cannot get past the underlying meta problems that equipment spam has caused this game.
So, I, for one, support the bandwidth proposal, although like all changes we need to keep a close eye on its effect for further tweaking.
The good news here, I think, is that CCP (and Rattati, in particular) seems to have a good feel for what needs to be done to keep the game in balance and performing well, even if I've not always supported all of the changes personally (and I hope the same can be said for you after this one is in the rear view mirror).
So I say voice your opinion (as you have done) but take a wait and see approach to this one -- my sense is once we have it in the rear view mirror (and we all have had time to adapt) this one will end up being another step in the right direction.
Nice RE there near the end, BTW. ;) |

Do you rely on switching suits and spamming equipment?
If so, your role will change -- you will need to be much more thoughtful in how you deploy equipment.
So you guys who have been running suits at the beginning of the matches throwing a dozen or more uplinks, switching suits, and collecting +25 for the rest of the match should probably rethink that a bit.
Be prepared.
Adapt. |

My biggest grip is completely nerfing solo play at the cost of lowering some equipment spawn situations.
You loss more from the game then you are gaining.. this pushes people to be required to squad instead of having thr option of playing solo.
Adapting now is play a or b... just play better in a or b?
I don't disagree with you on the potential for nerfing solog play, but let's be honest....
If the teams have half a brain: EVERY SINGLE PC, DOM, AND SKIRMISH TURNS INTO EQUIPMENT SPAM.
Bottom line: It is a mechanic that needs to go, and I think you are overestimating the meta improvements this change will have overall while focusing too much on a perceived shortcoming (i.e. "loss of solo gameplay") -- before you've ever played the game with the proposed changes.
Take a deep breath, let's go kill some bitches, and let's see how it turns out. Send me an invite. |
