Was just kind of thinking of some things that I would like to see for those of us who prefer more of a "support" role than that of being the front-line infantry:
1. Skill/Dropsuit/Something that reduces hacking time: I think this would be a great role for logistics people, particularly early in a match when there might not be much need for a uplink drop or nano-hives, get the logistics guy to the objective and he can hack it faster/more efficiently than the rest. I know there's already the system in place where multiple individuals can hack an object and decrease the time it takes, but allowing your fire team to actually provide cover fire while your logistics/hacker hacked the target would be neat too.
2. Remote support deployment: Again, potentially a good role for those in logistics roles, these individuals could use a Line-of-Sight or the overlay map to deliver installations and vehicular equipment where it was deemed necessary rather than simply ordering a drop right on top of their position. This allows your "healer" to basically stay back from the fray, having an established "recharge zone" while your fire team goes in to work over the enemies with their guns. One caveat to this idea would be that dropping of installations should be limited to some perimeter outside of an infrastructure location (i.e. the biomass facility/communications facility). The logical reason for this would be because you're trying to take it over, hot-dropping giant missile installations from orbit directly into the facility would stand too much potential for collateral damage.
3. I'm sure it's in the works, but some way to "call the target" is definitely in order for at least team/squad commanders to help focus and coordinate mission objectives, or simply to let your team know where the other guys are all bunched up at awaiting an ambush. This could be a role for recon/snipers or logistics individuals. |

i think the logistic suit should have more purpose to it and these sound like great ideas |

i agree with your first idea, some ppl might think that hacking should go more to scouts, but i think scouts should just get an even further stealth bonus, and hacking should go to logistics to give them more of a purpose on the front line if need be, also i think the logistics suits should have more defenses than assault |

Is there a reason you're going back that far? Most threads from more than 2 weeks ago are based on the old build, so they're not entirely relevant any more. |

i not just randomly finding them i trying to find ones relevent to what i think dust needs, so rather than making new threads for all the stuff i dug into the older post to find ones that had a good idea, and already had alot of discussion. besides i already brought back the recent ones, early today. |

Devs confirmed that the Logis are going to get a boost to hacking plus will boost the hacking of people around them IIRC. |
