you got proto scout suit which is beast, you got scrubz with dildo laser guns spraying up the skies like a fuckin club rave stripper show..

you got AR rifles that kill a heavy in seconds so where is the love for the good ol' heavies?!?! I saw another thread on here with the new suits that are coming and not one damn heavy suit :/ come on CCP we know yall love the scouts and Assualt class show love to the heavies

The question is really, what makes the good heavies good, and the bad heavies bad? And furthermore, is complaining about the suit the right way to go? How about speccing into sharpshooter instead....

And If you've never heard off or experienced the slowing down effect then you must have been playing another game man. They implemented it in the third beta buid (might be incoorect), have you never noticed that your charcter move more slowly when you get shot at by for example an AR? How could you miss that?

Actually people just say this because its true. People medicate to make themselves feel better.

The 1v1 matchup with the heavy depends on several variables just like any 1v1 matchup. Distance, Weapon, Armor, Shields, and whether or not the target sees one coming, etc. It is unfortunate for many to be caught in the heavy's range and crosshairs but it is not at all impossible to overcome.

Bullet slowing effect is just like snipers not having to lead moving targets and they also get gifted kills on runners and jumpers. If bullet slowing is not an unfair advantage, then lets make all bullets slow the target. SMG slows you down when its in your face and spraying everywhere.

If its not some kind of 'EASY' mode, then its definitely some kind of LAZY mode.

Yes, at the beginning of Open Beta STD level heavies were somewhat of an "EZ" mode, just hold down R1 and watch as everything around you dies, although that probably had more to do with nobody knowing how to fight them. It was very beginner friendly.

At ADV level things are more fairly balanced, but some heavies got a bit too complacent. The advantages they had no longer seemed all that great, and that separated the good heavies from the "scrubs", the good ones found a way to adapt, while the bad ones just QQed.

However, at the prototype level, the heavy suit just sucks. It costs way too much and all they gain is 1 highslot. So they can either add 1 more damage mod or 1 more shield extender. If they go with the shield extender, that's 66 more health, or about 2 AR bullets, however their poor mobility and bigger hit box means that those bullets are pretty much guaranteed to hit anyway. On a an assault suit the ability to take 2 extra shots makes a big difference, on a heavy it's worthless.

So yeah, heavies do start off a bit too good, but their poor progression makes them under powered at prototype levels. There are of course people who manage to do well despite that disadvantage, but that doesn't mean the proto suit doesn't need to be looked at.

And about being "easiest to use", well yeah, the suit is basically designed to camp, what else is it supposed to do?

Edit: Anyway... I thought this thread was about heavies not getting new suits next update, not about them being UP?

TL:DR

All that tells me is that you're a fatty hater and therefore your input is worthless, good day.

Scouts are fine as is. Do you see how such input is worthless?

And I don't use a heavy actually, I stopped investing in after the STD suit once I noticed how worthless they were. I have my ore surviveability in a type-II assault then I do in a heavy suit. My opinion on proto heavies them comes from how easily I can take them down, they're only slightly harder to take down than STD heavies, 2 slots harder in fact.
