First bug report was here - https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2506117#post2506117 and here - https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2506056#post2506056
This is a follow up of the bugs listed above.
When changing out suits, the Equipment Bandwidth of the suit is not checked.
This means, you can put out deployable equipment as needed, and switch to another suit. Right now, Equipment Bandwidth is only checked the moment a deployed equipment is activated.
This further means Sentinels and Heavy Frames have the ability to drop as much equipment as needed, switch to their Heavy suit and the equipment will persist until destroyed or end of match.
What was used to test:
Suits:
Amarr Logistics ak.0
'Templar' Sentinel A-I
'Raven' Assault C-I
The test first started noticed with the Minmatar Logi suit, but the full effect was noted when I put out 7 drop uplinks with my Amarr Logistics suit.
Switched to the Sentinel suit. No equipment perished.
Switched to the Assault suit. Again no equipment perished.
Deployed a Militia Nanohive. All of the drop uplinks except for 1 stayed active as the Nanohive activated. (4 + 4 = 8 Mb/s)
This means, without a Supply Depot check, the only suit unaffected BW is the Heavy suits, as they can't deploy equipment at all. For Scouts, Light Frames, Assaults, Commandos, Medium Frames, and even Logistics, the check will still happen when an equipment is deployed and perishes any equipment during the deployment check. Meanwhile, Heavies can continue to provide Logistics support while providing a tank/point defender role.

I experienced this as well while testing BW yesterday morning. I was able to deploy 5 uplinks and then swap to a sentinel and murder while the uplinks remained on the map.

maybe it's not a bug and it's how Ccp wanted the BW to work. It gives a max amount of equipment you can put on the battlefield so it reduces spam. It would be astonishing but maybe it's just working as intended ^^
They never mentionned the fact that they didnt want players having different roles on the battlefield, they just wanted to reduce spam. Spam is reduced this way ^^
Assault, Logi, Scout, Heavy.. What do you need?
