Eight pages of this tripe? Is the idea of not going 1v1 with a Heavy in your Assault suit just that hard a concept to understand? Also, for anyone that wants there to be a long spinup time before you can fire an HMG, why do you think not many people use the Mini Chain Gun in Planetside 2, and the ones that do have ****** KDRs? You put a long spinup on that thing, and it'll go straight to useless, and then everything is screwed up again.

Just leave it alone. Flank the damn Heavy.

only works if said heavy is not aware of said flank and even then your still in a 1v1 scenario. You want to kill heavies? Use your range to kill them before they reach you problem solved.

And attack them with superior numbers, which I thought was implied in my statement of flanking, but I'll further clarify that. This game is built around working together, so DO IT.

Yes this could work..... but i hope your "superior numbers" are extremely good.... because if not they will most likely die and then you are stuck again with a 1v1 scenario. Facing a full squad as a heavy is not difficult if you play it right, unless your facing 4 duvolls wiht 50% dmg buffs then the heavy is screwed hard.

Now facing a heavy with a full squad, while 1 or 2 members chip at him from outside his range, that is a win almost every time. I can say that is what kills me more than anything else. Oh and laser rifles.........

Oh and laser rifles......... Can't wait to spec back into Laser Rifles when I get another PS3, espescially if they make them do bonus damage based on time on target rather than time spent firing. That'll just make them even better for me.
