Balance Factors:

-Scouts get a pg fitting bonus to MSDs.
-Scouts can fit both a MSD and a cloak thus removing the ability of cloaked super punches from min scouts/

-Logis use their equipment fitting bonus for the MSD
-As EQ the MSD gives the logi a buff by allowing them to improve high slot tank or ewar while retaining increased mobility with the MSD to navigate map and lay hives/links.

-Assaults and commandos do not get a fitting bonus so they are required to fit pg modules in high slots (similar to myo blue bottles in high slots) in order to fit a MSD while retaining decent fitting space for weapons and low slot modules.
-The usefulness of map navigation with a MSD to an assault or commando means they must sacrifice their 1 EQ slot which in the current meta is filled with a scanner, compact nano, allotek nano, or various uplinks. Removing this enhances the support role of logis for their team who may carry multiple equipment in addition a MSD.

-Sentinels will continue to not have an EQ slot. All suit tiers would get a jump height buff that allows them to clear rails without a need for modules or EQ.

OP is obviously trying to get super jumps of old back so they can go knifing and remote detonating dropships.

GOD. WHO WILL THINK OF THE POOR DROPSHIP PILOTS!

I think they just need to do something about the explosive spam, a penalty to damage to mass,plasma, and remotes or something like that, if they have "x" amount of myos on, I myself only use the myos for sniping for traversing.

Bad idea. It works properly how it is. All your limbs get stronger, legs and arms.

There is nothing wrong with people jumping. It has added to the vertical gameplay.

It also helps set DUSt apart from other shooters in allowing the most versatile and customizable player types.

It's really not complicated. This is a possible solution which makes power jump and melee;
-a tactical tool
-levels disparity between new players and vets in terms of access to map mobility
-allows devs to offer different variations of jump height while not having to contend with bugged stacking penalties
-can be realistically implemented with a hotfix
-eliminates cloak punching by scouts
-reigns in the ability of melee commando to spam melee without end while not affecting the balance of other biotic modules--that in turn affect new vs old player power differences.

I really don't need to convince them.

Question. Are you using a gamepad or kb/m as your preferred input?

Thanks for letting me know that you have them in your back pocket , just turns me off even more and leads me to believe that this game is going nowhere .

Shinobi MumyoSakanagare ZaShigurui, that name sounds familiar.

Making it go in the equipment slot is a big problem though. It prevents people from jumping and shooting. If you eliminate that you take away the fun and the balance.

As far as I am concerned Scouts and other non-Heavy classes have always needed some help. WHenever the scouts get something everyone freaks out and demands a nerf. Even the cloak they got hardly cloaks them.

It bothers me that you feel like you could influence the game just because you skype with the dev's as you so eloquently put it and this also leads me to believe that's why this game is so stagnant as well as issues that help this game remain stagnant , isn't attended to like matchmaking to bring greater balance in pub matches but given attention to " non-issues " that are created by people that really have nothing better to do then mess with mechanics that really don't need screwing with at all .

This proposal also equalizes jump and melee power across tiers--reducing disparity between new and old players. Players have equal access to jump height, but skill investment into the equipment allows quicker recharge time.

I can't think of any Shooter with a jump pack/double jump/jet pack/[other increased jump height thing] that uses anything more than the game's jump button for usage.

AOE splash weapons be like

If you ( the guy who runs around with equipment in hand punching people to death ) wants this, I have nothing but suspicion if it's coming from you lol.

The hell.

Shinobi, if you write a Great Wall of Text that could stop the Mongolians, you could at least make it legible.

You people want to limit spawn placement because these same squads are just too lazy to change their tactics to address high spawns , you want to screw with bio's when there's nothing wrong with them now and after CCP just made changes to them for the reasons of the community complaining , you people expanded the HAV's weak area's instead of addressing the fact that maybe they just need to revert back to the system of 1.6 and bring back some of the mods that they use to have ( which they said that they were doing as far as the mods ) because you people just can't handle HAV's but you run in squads so you already have the numerical advantage over solo players and speaking of solo players , now you people want to kill the solo game instead of just trying to address the imbalance's of not having a true matchmaking system.

there was no need fo rjumping mods. just a charged jump. Hold down X for a brief time and you jumped twice as high for twice the stamina. it'd allow heavies to get over small bumps. problem sorted.

This causes a potential problem with heavies which armor heavies get a huge benefit from jumpy mods by being able to clear a 3 inch curb.

Heavies can't fit EQ. Buff heavies base height and add a factor to pure armor plates which reduce jump height.

A trampoline type thing would be kinda cool. imagine reaching highspots by jumping on a device. Create pathways for team mates. Although it might nerf that uneasy feeling you get when you are climbing a ladder completely helpless and exposed..
