Heavies are only a problem for people who don't play as a squad. |

To me, this entire thing is akin to someone complaining that goalies in soccer are "OP" because they get to use their hands. |

Yeah, so get one in your freaking squad. You wouldn't build a raiding party with 3 Thieves and a Cleric, and a football team doesn't have 11 Quarterbacks on offense.
If you want, get in a heavy suit, grab 3 more guys in heavy suits, and run around like that for awhile. Sure, you'll mow down pubbies running lonewolf, but let's see what happens when you run into a squad running a diverse and tactical strike team. You'll win that fight ONCE, and then lose over and over and over again until you figure out heavies aren't so OP after all. |

Really JACK??
Have you ever played as a HEAVY with HMG??
Did you forget its 8 LOOONG seconds to RELOAD??
Did you forget its TEN SECONDS when it overheats??
DEATH is the condition that is visited on the heavy in either of these situations.
so, in your scenario the heavy not only fights alone against a squad without any cover but also starts without ammo, no sidearm, has to reload and his weapon magically overheats for some reason before he could fire a single bullet?  well then its time to buff the heavy cause he is really useless in such a scenario... go buff heavies! 
The game balance is designed around SQUAD vs SQUAD. Again, complaining about a heavy being OP is like putting a soccer team together without a goalie and then claiming that the other teams goalie is OP because he gets to touch the ball with his hands. |
