What do they have? A ten to 15 second timer?
These are the most malicious pieces of equipment in the game because they work completely against one's own team. Thus is because the waiting time is so long that often people will spawn in one at.a time and be easily killed by enemies with a numbers advantage.
A logistics player can completely sabotage a teams chance of winning if they place many of these close to the objectives. They are.basically ensuring that their enemy will always have a numbers advantage and adequate time to recover from their previous fights.
I am not tricked by these acts of sabotage, though, unfortunately many inexperienced players are.
I actually dislike these uplinks more than I do active scanners because these problems are caused by one's own team .

I agree that drop uplinks are evil but because of another reason...
People bring these more than nanos and it's irritating for people who are trying to hold off the objectives
No ammo and no nano hives but literally 10 drop uplinks. Literally caught with your pants down.

The Logi-Problem: needs to bring proto equipment, takes crap for using proto suit to fit it all and the equipment to support it, gains the same/similar payout as everyone else.

for some yes not everyone can be as wealthy as the top brass
and its not really worth wasting good links on scrubs that will just place their own on top of them or straight out destroy them to get more points for themselves, the only place to really bring proto links is PC anywhere else it doesn't really matter, if you don't want to wait 15 seconds then don't die, not to mention that as long as your clone is not terminated spawns become much shorter
mlt links are better then no links and can help a logibro that needs to get in place quickly to drop their own higher tier links

No-one is forcing you to spawn on them, feel free to run from the red line if there are no alternatives. And it is the only equipment for a starter fit so of course I will drop them, for better or worse.
And I strongly disagree with screwing my team over with them though. It is better to have a 15 second uplink near an objective than none at all. I usually drop them as back-ups anyway, I trust someone has better links on my team.

The original topic had a point, the arguments to back it up have not. Standard/milita links are pretty bad. It's not the15 second timer and the potential spawn killing that can happen. Those are problems any uplinks not heavily defended or in the middle of no where faces. No imo the biggest issue is the 6 clone limit. You end up waiting 10-12 seconds and the thing expires because 6 other people spawned before you did. Forcing you to wait again on some new spawn point. I kind of wish the uplink count worked in reverse. Everything started to count down when you die and when it hit zero you could pick an uplink.
That way you know if you hit the link, you will appear.
That said due to apex suits uplinks are far more common than they use to be. A 15 second delay isn't bad. If your farther than 50m from the redline the extra time you wait to spawn is most likely faster than you could of ran the distance. The biggest problem is bad uplinks in horrible locations coupled with the rather lame map we have to work with. You can't really see much detail even if you zoom in all the way. You can't tell where an uplink is, if it's on the building or underneath it etc. Then you got over lapping uplinks in a small area, making it nearly impossible to pick a good one over the junk.
Another feature I would love to have is squad tinted uplinks. Green equipment for stuff your squad put down would be great. Not to mention some way to tell where you own uplinks are. Right now you really have no idea if your uplinks have expired, been blown up etc unless you have them in such isolated places that nothing else is on the map. Not to mention the limit of how much equipment bothers to render on the map.
As for the complaint against logi's not using all proto equipment, meh suck it. Everyone else isn't running proto hives despite the fact everyone but heavy's have at least one equipment slot and for good reason. Proto equipment has an insanely high PG?CPU cost to go with the higher ISK cost. Even a proto logi would have to sacrifice some serious survivability to use all proto equipment, which would cause them to die even more often.
I tend to run a single type of proto equipment on my logi suits. Usually I take a proto rep tool just because the usefulness of the extra range and twin rep. Proto hives kind of suck. You get the same +10 supply, they blow up to enemy nearly as easily and grenades flat out own them just like other hives. Most hives could resupply the entire team for most of the match, if people didn't spawn grenades all the time. I'm not even talking about enemy grenades blowing them up. Most basic hives will expire after refilling a grenade or two. Even advanced proto don't stand a chance with how often people toss grenades.
Of course you have to go all the way to a supply depo or die to restock equipment as well. Most matches are pretty fluid and even if a nano hive doesn't expire the group moves on and abandons it where it lay. At best you get 6 hives, even some proto your gipped with a mere 3 hives. That's three uses for good or bad before that slot is worthless. That's why almost every other kind of equipment is more popular.
With rep tools, injectors and scanners you can use them unlimited times to help your team and earn WP. Uplinks are limited, but at 25 per spawn and on average 6-15 (plus amarr bonus if possible) you'll earn enough WP to justify carrying an uplink. Even if they don't run out or get blown up early. |

I already told everyone, these links are worse than not having any links.
Bad players will continually spawn at them and die over and over because enemies have enough time to prepare before they spawn in.
Also, I don't care if a logistics player repairs me, places a nanohive or follows me around. The only thing I care about is being revived and even then I don't feel entitled.
Am I telling logistics players to run better equipment for my own benefit? No, I am telling them to stop running terrible uplinks because they are a detriment. People are actually reducing the chances of your team winning by placing these links.

They didn't want uplinks to be better than spawning on objectives, so they made proto links 11s. Everything else cascaded down from there.

You can still get 3 second spawns though its much harde to achieve. You need the Viziam drop uplink from the LP store
(has -47.5% spawn time) and a Amarr logi. That is the only way to get insane short spawn timers back and thats why amarr logis are valuable to their team. Every second you are sitting at the respawn screen is a second where you are not shoting enemys off a objective. Even regular proto links can get you spawn time of 5 secs which is a huge benefit over a militia scrub link where you have to wait 15 secs.
Though if you are a amarr logi you can still use militia uplinks and get a moderate 7.5 second spawn time out of it.

Not to mention the far more impressive 16 spawns, imo the +10 max spawns to any link is almost more impressive than the 50% cut back in spawn time. It makes a militia link impressive and some of the more advanced rather scary in how long they can last.
Edit: all though a little more transparency in how the Amar logi effect worked would be great. Do the bonus spawns get used up first, or after? If you switch suits would all you uplinks that had exceeded their normal spawn limit instantly expire or would they start working off what ever fraction of their normal spawn cap was left?
The other aspect I hate is if you die as an Amar logi you can't seem to use your own bonus to get back on the field, it seems to tied to you being alive. Any time you die your uplinks seem to lose their bonus till your back on the field with another Amar logi suit. |

Why blame the logis for the militia up links? its more often than not scouts and assaults who drop whatever they can fit.
end of the day you have a proboem with bad uplinks to be pro active OP and spec into up links yourself.

Better a mil link than no link at all to get players back in the fight sooner than running all the way back over to the objective. I have seen many good links in bad places.
It's all about placement and context. Early in the game it makes sense to throw them out simply as a closer spawn point before the enemy moves forward. Then change those positions instantly as you move around and can get them in a better place.
Again, there have been many good links that never get an upkeep and stay in bad places.
I have seen mil links make the difference with good placement.

Honestly as a mostly uplink focused logi (since no one else on my team runs the things half the time) I usually come in with proto/advanced links to start with on a jumpy logi suit. Put them in as good location as I can find, spamming 6-8 uplinks around the map. Usually as close to the objectives as I can get without being within easy scanner range of any one on the objective. Then I play the rest of the match as a more or less normal logi after I die/swap out that suit. I tend to carry the standard Templar link with a core rep tool and some what ever injector I can fit into the cpu/pg. The Templar link is kind of crap but it's just something I drop down as we approach objectives or quick defense uplinks near objectives.
In that aspect basic links are kind of good. Since you can only have one out at a time you know that any time you put one down it removes your old one. It allows for a progressively mobile link that is rarely in a 'bad spot' since you keep deploying them near the most current location of your squad. Plus as people have said having taken Amar Logi to proto the spawn times aren't too bad even on the Templar. |

I don't mind proto.

Mlt/Std links > no links.
If you like to spend 30-50s running from the redline to the point/s, then do so.
Uplinks are the best eq new players can carry (even counting the bad sides).
Or better, carry them yourself.
Ps. Every role (but commando) should carry links at the start and later on if needed.

1. Quit crying, and...
2. Just spawn at deployment and do your mini cross-country jog to the action, or...
3. Use a vehicle to get where you want to go, or...
4. Play with friends on mic so you know where and what you're spawning into, or...
5. God forbid drop your *own* high speed, perfectly placed uplinks all over the map since you're so perfect...

I knew people would acknowledge me eventually. I am still hoping that KAGEHOSHI senpai will notice me.
I digress, the fact that these uplinks are worse than no uplinks is very troublesome. I already travel hundreds of meters every battle. They don't affect me directly. Rather they sabotage the team.

As long as you bleed out your bonus still works.
What puzzles me much more is how the times are calculated...
If the advanced flux uplink usually needs 11 seconds and I have skilled the Amarr logi suit to 3 or 4, why do my own placed uplinks show up as 3 seconds? |

For every second your on the field but haven't bleed out uplink timers seem to go down by one second to a minimum of 3. |

cough cough. the enemy has to take the long run to the objective because i kill all of them before i set up a link. and reck their links. i hate seeing that little dot on my radar and its stay there for a while since i run amarr battlemurder scout.

I'm not going to bother reading this whole thing. First of all any uplink is better than no uplink. Second of all. It used to be worse, they used to be 19 seconds. Count your lucky stars
