 Bandwidth is a... novel idea. However, it's extremely detrimental to the use of certain equipment over others.
 
 Uplink spam is an issue, yes. But the root of the problem wasn't quantity, it was proximity. I have a suit specifically loaded out to with uplinks, so I can set one near different points in a skirmish match. Bandwidth breaks that concept by limiting me to 2 active uplinks. Why not just make it so uplinks can't be deployed less than 100m from each other? Having 4-5 active uplinks at once, all over the map isn't unreasonable, and shouldn't be crippled as it has been. Either implement proximity limits instead, or lower uplink bandwidth to 1. Or BOTH.
 
 REs annoy people, but it's the "frisbeeing", not the max number active at once. 2 REs isn't enough to put a dent in a tank. Lower their bandwidth to 1.

 CCP considered the "can only be deployed outside a certain radius" idea but can't be possible at this time. As for bandwidth, I have not been on yet so I can't comment on this until I try it out myself.

 i cannot agree on uplinks. i only carry 1 uplink type and its in constant use throughout any match. placing more than 1 is not required to be effective. once players start to understand this we will all be better off and bandwidth will help bring this realisation to light for a lot of players. its been far too easy for far too long to throw down loads of equipment whether its of use or not and letting quantity rule the game rather than quality.
 
 with regards to RE i have no opinion. they don't affect me all that often

 1. With the way RE are you should be allowed to use 1 and only 1 since they can be thrown like a frisbee

 I imagine part of the problem is that every suit has like 9 BW right now, unless they already fixed it.

 Logis are supposed to have 32 BW.
 That's 8 links per Logi.

 Right, which should be plenty if you take like 15 seconds to think about where you are putting them. 6 + 2 hives is probably about what I'll aim for on 5 point maps.
