So please do not argue your point under the banner of solo player as it insults the intelligence of the entire scattered solo community.

I'm mostly solo as well. Unlike some people around here, I don't WP farm by spamming equipment all over the mushroom structure in the city and then run the rest of the match as a scout.

Every suit has a particular set of limits here. Take heavies as an example. Being a heavy practically makes it impossible to be a solo player because you need someone with you to repair your armor when you're heavily damaged, someone to keep an eye out for enemy scouts for you, and someone to help you replenish your ammo when the nearest supply depot is too far away and your suit is too expensive to suicide in.

With 1.10, logis will be in high demand because they will be the ONLY ONES that can provide exactly what everyone else needs. Logistics will no longer be marginalized by scouts who have two equipment slots and they will no longer be relegated to just being spam-equipment-early-in-match suits that you later dispose of and switch to your assault/heavy/scout for the remainder of the match.

Of course safe guards will be in place to keep griefers from joining squads for 24 hours. END OF RANT!!! Over 60+ Million SP and full proto in all Caldari Suits. Dust just won't die on PS3/Xbox.

Nowhere You are allowed to play as a solo player, just don't complain that teamwork is OP then. I'm a dad of two year old, I don't always get in squads either. When playing like that, I still try and work with the team instead of lone wolfing it. The lone wolf will almost always have a bad time

It looked like your initial uplinks were quickly destroyed and you started spawning on a teammates uplinks. Like it or not you were dependent on your team in that video. I think bandwidth will greatly improve the logi as a role rather than logi being a suit which you spam equipment then switch to something else.

Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 5676	Posted - 2014.12.06 20:14:00 - [21] - Quote Logis are now independently more important. Now logis? Punn your heads OUT of your collective ass and realize a simple truth: A logi leashed to a sentinel is a warpoint farmer. A logi supporting an assault squad is a force multiplier. Have your boys carry needles to pick you up. EVE Online is what you get when engineers attempt to create "fun" without consulting someone who comprehends the word.

DO I LEAVE THE MATCH AND LOSS SP??? (Btw you get some payment when you leave) OR DO I SIT IN THE REDLINE AND WAIT THE GAME OUT? (I hear rubber banding the controller is a good option) What are you my options now?? ALL YOU SMART MOTHER TRUCKERS WITH YOUR SASSY COMMENTS TELL ME WHAT TO DO? I already asked CPM and CCP isn't providing a free logi in every public match. Sky Deployment isn't coming out... Things are already bad enough when you get a crappy team and we are stuck in the redline The squad finder is horrible because 15% of the time you get people that make you wait and wait and wait.. it's horrible enough already. There is no preset Squad bandwidth so I can deploy sensable uplinks to move the team out of the redline?? Your not hurting equipment spammers your hurting the solo game. Plus good luck spaming in 1.10 with EMP orbitals every 6 kills that go threw buildings. Over 60+ Million SP and full proto in all Caldari Suits. Dust just won't die on PS3/Xbox.

I do this all the time. Bring links forward, switch to assault or scout. Red vehicles? Commando to AV. Intense frontline fighting? Counter with heavy. Heavies being spammed? Scout or sit back in long range assault. My team is spamming heavies? Min logi with a rep tool, scans, hives. Uplinks down? Get 7 proto links on the ground. You cant rely on the blue STD and MLTs to getterdun.

So please do not argue your point under the banner of solo player as it insults the intelligence of the entire scattered solo community. Your the one grouping solo players who use equipment in the group of players who "Spam" Equipment. The average solo player isn't on DUST forums or has never really been on them. They have used the sand in the sandbox to contribute and compete by using equipment and different suits in the average match. These players on average don't "Spam" Equipment.. They don't have time for it. The equipment is stuff that they need and the general team needs... Like Uplinks close to objectives or points of contention. More often the squaded player is the one sitting at Supply depots and "SPamming" The area with equipment. More Often it is the squaded players who all use Uplink suits and jump in a dropship and all setup camp. We could of fixed the issue with Proximity limits to supply depots and other equipment.. We are instead nerfing all equipment use right across DUST. The uplink usually active on maps that you see all day while playing DUST is placed by the solo player. The Equipment farms that make radar's un readable are placed by squaded mercenaries. Let's atleast look at this with the truth of it.. Not some rose colored glasses that are used as the justified reasoning.
