The question is not if this is a good idea. The question is if it's the right idea for Dust.

But first, don't talk down to someone especially after asking for no hostile replies. What your response tells me is that you're expecting no opposition to this idea of yours. "Be cool" my ass.

Odius is right though. Those big guns that the MCC can call down provide good strategic possibilities already, and they'll provide even more when energy and projectile variants became available. This HMG might as well be a auto cannon turret. The same with the Ion Beam. And instead of a rapid fire mass driver (which sounds like balance shattering overkill), we might as well have a howitzer turret. There are already powerful weapons at a heavy suit user's disposal. Have you not used a forge gun?

Your idea is good but not every good idea fits in every game. It works for Medal of Honor because it was made for Medal of Honor, It won't work for Call of Duty because it's a run and gun lone wolf playground. It won't work for Dust because there really is no need for them, we already have and are soon to get more weapons that can provide the kind of firepower these portable guns of yours would give.

I'm not talking down to him, I'm stating to him that he didn't get the concept at all, because the auto turrets were non portable. strong, but non portable. these guns would fill in the gap of the turrets, and portable guns. Well, these guns are really semi-portable, because it's not like you could fire it while it's not deployed. Anyways, There's only two heavy weapons, and the only useful one is the forge gun. Even then, it's horrible aginst infintry, and is good at AV combat. these guns would be good at both. These could even be concidered a "special weapons" category, because they're not normal weapons.

And the hole "There's no need for them" is invalad, because there's no need for many things in this game, yet they are there (mass driver is a big one.). That doesn't mean it doen't have to be in the game. And MoH is cod, but slighty larger. Everyone knows that (well, you didn't, but now you do.), so by your logic, MoH doesn't need them either. O wait, it's inthere, and it works perfectly, and that's in CQ. Think of how well it would wprk in big maps. Now try again.

You don't need to be this defensive and act like some hurt schoolgirl. So no, I'm done with this. Enjoy basking in the 10 Wat light of victory.
