No. This is the EXACT reason Bandwidth was put into the game in the first place.
1. Spawn in Logi
2. Throw down a bunch of uplinks/nanohives/etc
3. Swap to Heavy
4. Earn double WP by killing and doing the Logi's work
Bandwidth is there so that each role keeps their niche in the battlefield and someone isn't trying to make points doing two different roles at the same time. If you want to earn WP from uplinks/nanohives, etc, you need to use a logi or a suit that has bandwidth.
If you want to be a heavy killing machine, you don't get to double dip and get WP from doing other people's job as well.

If you want to be a heavy killing machine, you don't get to double dip and get WP from doing other people's job as well. That's fine for when you're running coordinated squads, but it hurts overall performance for anyone who likes running solo. You're basically making me half as effective as I could be for no reason at all.
Kail, I hear what you're saying. I was in your shoes at one time getting crushed. However, I was able to adapt and learn from it.
My primary playstyle when I play is as a solo Logi. I normally find a group running together and stay with them (I'm essentially a free squad member not giving WP towards an OB), I throw down uplinks, nanohives, and have my rep tool and needle handy to help. On certain CQC maps, I will throw some RE's on there and use those to help hold point objectives when people go through firelanes. I'm able to come up positive on KDR running a logi while also helping my team out.
If we need to have uplinks etc in play, I will stay in my logi. If we don't, I'll switch to a Commando/Heavy and help with the killing instead of the saving. However, it has to be a one or the other.
Adapting and overcoming is the way of life in New Eden. It's a hard lesson to learn but, once you do, you are be O.K.

But there are soooo many times that I'm one of the few people doing anything. You go kill a few dudes, take the point, but get overwhelmed. It would be nice if your uplink wouldn't pop when you spawn heavy to try keep the point.
It seems to me that this playerbase is such complete trash that we need to have Megazord suits that can convert back and forth from a tank to a suit with a mobile CRU, scanner, etc.  where can I get the megazord? Totally putting a cru, complex scanner, armor hardener, missile turret on my shoulders, while dual welding scrambler riffles. This right here. It only unlocks when 6 people leave battle
So you can run it every match, then? Got it.

Spawn on uplink: camping scout NK's you in the back. 1mil down the drain. Lol. Saying that, I don't have 50 million SP total or I would down as well.

For those complaining they can't go from Logi to Heavy; assault & commando still have bandwidth so if you switched to either of those suits you would still have an uplink/nanohive.
You can't be raking in points for uplink spawns, resupplying, and healing with triage nanohives while at the time running around in a 1500 HP suit and the highest either alpha or constant DPS weapon in the game. Oh the humanity.
