So because a suit is killed it's balanced? 5 meters a second is obviously not slow enough because they get the most kills per spawn. 5m/s*30m=150m^2/s it takes only seconds to get within range to wreck face in a heavy that is way stronger than scouts, at least scouts go down easy when you catch them even if they can "ohk". Edit: I've been a heavy in every sense before pc and pubs and it's super easy.
Heavies get the most kills per spawn you say? First on, this is something that really asks for prove. Furthermore, in case your claim holds true - and I really wish it did - let me tell you something:
It has to be that way. Heavies have to reap the gross amount of kills on the battlefield, full stop.
You wonder why? Because this game is NOT about the number of kills you reap in.
On an individual basis it is about reaching maximum warpoints output in an economically healthy way, means: die less or die cheap, make money, make skillpoints. The only way for a heavy to make warpoints is via kills, nothing else. Every other class can generate warpoints different ways, thereby substituting their (right so) lessened slaying potential. Every Logistics guy can tell you stories about how to maximize skill points other ways than slaying.
On a team / group basis it is about tactical dominance: Winning a match does not ultimately depend on heavies getting kills, as every mass driver / granade / RE line of defense can put a decisive halt to that endeavour. Winning a match depends on taking and holding objectives and cloning out if possible. A fat, lame and blind suit is not the best and only option to accomplish that.
Ergo, the wish to have all other suits have the same potential to generate the same amount of kills aka warpoints per spawn devaluates the heavy as a source of income. The only reason to lobby for other suits to slay like a heavy in light of aforementioned situation is pure K/D ego-tripping or simply ignorance.
