The assault suit will be able to use heavy weapons, which will take away the only job a heavy has. If nothing changes for them in the next build. Then there is a pretty good chance most, or all the heavy players we have now will switch to the Swiss army knife assault suit.


Buff our fatties.

Triple the pg reqs of heavy guns and raise the pg of the heavy to match, crisis averted

Dont worry Heavy suits will get an HP bonus and will be the only suit that gets an HP bonus per level or the best HP bonus per level or even worse damage resistance per level...

Then if they're doing that, why make any changes at all? Raising the PG required to use heavy weapons, while also raising the max PG of heavy suits doesn't do anything at all. It's completely avoiding the problem.

Did I miss some news? Or is everyone still speculating on the graphics blog post still because some dev did a render with the wrong set of hands?

You mean like this?

I doubt this will happen.

For all we know, the "heavy" light weapons we have seen in pics is the plasma cannon, so dont jump the gun. Also if assault suits can use heavy weapons it isnt all that special, as id guess ccp would cause it to hinder movement speed. That & its req u to run tank fits ( i think)

This is the plasma cannon looks nothing like the forge gun.

I would rather see some new weapons made avail and see the pros and cons of those before I see anymore "nerfs"

You mean the logical, smart thing to do? Never! *Whips out nerfhammer* /CCP

I hate how CCP every build makes each dropsuit class less and less unique. its like they want to turn all the suits into one homogeneous class. They dont even seem to stand out from each other much now and they want to take even the small differences away.

I am a Capsuleer and a Mercenary. I understand CCPs desire to draw in a wider crowd. Unfortunately that is going to include dumbing down the game to make it appeal to that crowd. Most people just want to pew pew each other and not care about the in game lore at all. Others (like myself) love that immersion and all that this game could be. So do they make the game popular (and bland) or cater to those familiar with CCP game?

I would love if there was some sort of combination of the two, but I don't think that would really be possible. While frustrating we need to understand that CCP is a business looking to make revenue. If Dust can draw people to EvE then all the better for CCP which means more money to put back into Dust and from Aurum sales. The best way to do this is give out promotional codes for EvE to new players to get them into EvE and learn about it more.

Assault type A can already use forge guns I beleive, so don't worry Heavies are the only ones who can still use the LMG we all call a HMG

Good luck running a HMG and 1 LP and HP mod
The PG and CPU don't even compare to a heavy.

But what about that trailer where the assault suit was carrying a FG or a similiar weapon

Thats another AV nail in the coffin for the HAV/dropship

Yup was that the same one as a laser raven... Its a cinematic trailer, dev hacks everywhere!!



Assault suit = 3 hi's, 2 lows, equipment, grenades... a FG or HMG will completely gimp any fit

Dont worry Heavy suits will get an HP bonus and will be the only suit that gets an HP bonus per level or the best HP bonus per level or even worse damage resistance per level...
