ive been playing the beta for week or so as a heavy/tanker and ive noticed 2 things that might help gameplay a bit
1: forge guns should have a vapor trail of some kind so we know where at least they are shooting from...snipers rounds do, swarm missles do, so should forge guns imo
2: we should have a choice, in ambush fights, whether to spawn from our "starting" area or the the spawn point thats currently being camped by someone like me with my tank/HMG  ....maybe have it flash red when people are within a certain distance of it so they know when its being camped?
any and all feedback/critisim is greatly appreciated  |

No reason not to do the vapor trail thing and any fix for the spawn point issue is a +1 |

forge gun has a trail. the reason you're not seeing it is because it's fast, and 90% of forge gunners fire when you aren't aimed in their direction (looking at them).
I routinely wait for backshots or when a tank is engaged shooting my blueberries before I put a round through it's glacis plate. Situational awareness is your friend.
Also the forge gun shots look like a fast moving blue streak/comet that is only visible from an oblique angle. if it's coming straight on it's not visible. But it hits at about the same speed as a turret or tank rail gun. |

#1 thing I hate about being a forge gunner is random spawn. 4 times out of 5 I will spawn well out of safety. Back before the reset the horrid spawning system would cost me on average 400-500k in dropsuits.
Waiting for a drop uplink isn't much of an option because spawning on one usually fails when the uplink is new and it requires someone else to either get to a supply depo and refit, or wait for them to die and refit. Uplinks are a sad excuse of the module in their current state. Spawning on a misc one will often get you killed as they are often camped more times than not. |
