A quote such as "we are looking into balance issues" is deffinately too vague to jump to conclusions...but tbh, I don't see what else they can take away from the fat suit other than HP. If they take the durability away they might as well scrap the class, make forge guns a light weapon and remove the HMG from the game. These heavy class threads have been flooding the forums. Its only a mtterof time before changes are made and I seriously doubt that changes will mean a buff. I'm glad I chose the assault class from the jump. |

Heavies IMO should be the infantry based tanks to take on vehicles and take a severe beating from those vehicles. But as it is now, the HMG is just too powerful for such a high-health suit going up against other significantly weaker infantry players. Heavies ought to be mainly used against vehicles, but not much more than that. Their role against other infantry players should be very minor (only as a support role) and not nearly as effective as it is now.
The MH 82 already has the lowest DPS of every weapon in the game. Even the the officer version (the Gaston) has less than a Toxin SMG. The assault and burst equivalents even less DPS. Rate of fire marginally makes up for this due to accuracy. Yes, its a powerfull weapon when used properly. So is a shotgun on a scout suit with kinetic catalysers and profile dampners. They kill heavys all the time. We dont yell OP over it. We cuss at the t.v. and then respawn. |

They kill heavys all the time. We dont yell OP over it. We cuss at the t.v. and then respawn. Actually it has higher DPS. Damage per second. It has the higher because of the rof. More rof = more DPS. I think you mean pure DPB... Damage per bullet. And it has the lowest damage simply because the HMG would be OP if it spit out 30 dmg bullets with a 2k rof.
DPS=Damage Per Shot.
ROF=Rate Of Fire

I got more hate mail last night, some blueberry couldn't kill me. I laughed because he 1 stood still, 2 didn't throw grenades and 3 though I was cheating!!! No afraid not but over the last few builds I have been mapping a dedicated skill progression for my heavy and the key thing I have found to get early on is field mechanics to level 5 early on to give you a longer life expectancy IMHO. But we'll just need to see where CCP go with the heavy, how i miss the early days with 25 damage per shot and 3000 RPM HMG, good times...
Regards Snag
Why was a blueberry trying to kill you? |
