Today while playing public matches I kept coming up against Betamax and What the French who we're running 4-man squads with 2-3 Heavies included.
It was impressive to see them build a conga-line with the heavies at the front and redberries at the back and steamroll round the maps, I tried my best to build mini-fortresses on high ground with nanohives and drop uplinks to spawn in team mates but they only lasted a minute or so before being obliterated. If I was in a squad and wasn't relying on blueberry meat-shields most of the time the heavies could have been countered.
Now this is how it should be in my opinion, heavies leading the charge with team mates supporting them, a solo heavy doesn't get very far before running out of steam or being embarrassed by a scout with a shotgun, but with good support they should be fearsome. |

Heavies are not in a good place.
Advanced suits need buffed. Proto suits need buffed more, and price cut.
Right now about the only thing heavies can do is pubstomp. |

Well, they need tweaks like everything else in the game, but I think they're fulfilling their role as slow, high damage killing machines that heavily rely on support to make an impact. |

Had a match like that with UnReal. Not a single tank was dropped, but the result was the same. Absolute stomp. |

Agreed. When in a corp battle against proto wearing red dots my fat suit is a deathtrap. But in pub games it's a cakewalk. |
