I feel bad for heavy guys with the "ISK gameplay". They can't have an "easy gameplay" with nice suits or weapons if they are slow and get so many shoots. I mean, why do the suits and weapons, cost so much more than the others? It's because the armor and the power that they have? But, a heavy playing in an "open map", it's an easy target for snipers, or large range weapons. Look at the snipers, they're so far away of the battlefield, they can make a lot of kills with low danger, less danger if they use an assault suit, or a heavy suit or a logi suit.
I think snipers have a lot of advantage in the "ISK gameplay", because they don't need to be worried about lose a lot of suits, and they will constantly get ISK. I like the ISK system, it makes the game more interesting because you need to be careful about how do you play, and how do you build your character, but "snipers guys" don't "feel" this part of the game.
I don't play heavy, just sometimes with FG to take down some dropship but i think they need to change the price of the weapons and suits, because snipers have less danger than heavy guys of get killed by someone.
Also, maybe if sniper rifle just can [only] be used by scout guys, will make the "sniper gameplay" more dynamic. I mean, sniping with a Heavy or an Assault with full shield and armor? Kinda immortal (I snipe with an assault suit sometimes). I would like to see more heavy guys with logi bros in their back in the middle of the battlefield, but i think they don't want to spend a lot of ISK when they can get killed many times while snipers don't think in how ISK they can't lose or win.
Sorry for the English. See you
PS: I didn't play a lot the new build, but it looks nice, the game it's getting better step by step
