Looks like all the new proto suits will only have a single equipment slot, dissregarding the Logis off course.

- Why?

- Too much much use of the medkits has made too many people keep their aur items perhaps?


- I am strongly against this since it lessens the variety of gameplay and by extension the entire experience for me. The only worthwhile reason for me to use a WK.1 assault suit over a B-series is that extra equipment slot which makes me able to do a little more than simply shoot at stuff and restocking myself with ammo.

If possible, some words from CCP about their reasoning for this change would be most welcome.

As a logi bro this makes me a happy camper, no longer will a team of 8 asaults suits do the job of two logi suits that SHOULD be there.

Plus your assault, you need armour shields and speed. Not two equipment slots.

Logibro wanted some love, he now gets it.

If you really want an assault suit with multiple equipment slots go for the Amarr Logistics. You get your precious sidearm and 3 equipment slots I believe.

That only has 1 High slot if I heard correctly.

All removing the extra slot does is force me to swap suits at a resupply a few times a match. CCP didn't increase demand for logi, they just made it more annoying to play assault. Also enjoy no nanite injectors, ever.

Weird is that noone really talks or cares about the basic suits, those are the third option besides logis and assaults. Aren't those for example aimed to have a little bit of everything? Well I haven't seen any info about them yet at all, even not in videos with foottage about uprising.

simple fact is that assualt people are meant for destroying things they are the dps's of dust and are not support roles like the logis

Terrible logic. Supply depots aren't exactly plentiful, nor very survivable. You can't go around on the assumption you'll always have one nearby. What they've done is made it important for assault players to either squad up with other assaults carrying different equipment or squad up with a logi.

How exactly is this bad? All you need is a nanohive on an assault fit, we don't need triage assault units on the field.

And why not?

- So you're sayiing that killing and restocking my ammo is all that I should do and I should be content with that?

Because they're slayers, not logibros.

Alldin is the only real logi in the game. Everybody else is terrible and didn't know how to properly use the suit so of course CCP had to take away the extra equipment slot in order to make the carebears feel better. However it isn't like these terrible logi kids are going to become magically better starting the 6th. I still definitely won't depend on them, because they'll be as worthless as they've been for the past year.

Not to be rude but what makes his so great? I am always looking to be a better logi and if he is the best then we need to look to him.

Yes, since that's what the assault is supposed to do.

And no one is forcing you to carry nanohives. Only one squad member has to have them. The others can carry something else.

Then turn logi's weapon slot into a sidearm slot.

You gave yourself the answer. I'll make it clear for you.

"Looks like all the new proto suits will only have a single equipment slot, disregarding the Logis off course."

I took the liberty of fixing that "dissregarding".

Logis need PG and CPU. Have you ever played logistics? At least read the descriptions on Hives, Injectors and Uplinks...? You do know that they DRAIN PG/CPU. If we need to run with 4 Infantry equips, we need more PG/CPU.

So much fail here. Yes I made a typo, thanks for being cool about it, its not like you are one of these A-holes that just have to inflate it and make a point about it.... For being from a non-English country using a forum without a typo-fixer, I think I'm doing a fairly good job out of my writing and I actually do make an effort to write properly... Thanks for nothing...

Laughs at "need more CPU/PG" and for "giving myself the answer", I merely stated whats happened, not WHY.

So thank you for your well thought out response to the issue at hand and not least for your epic presentation of the probable change in gameplay mechanics as a result of this very limiting change.

Edit: Oh sorry, I have never read the descriptions of any of the equipments, I have no idea how they actually work or what they cost to fit, I'll go educate myself next time before I post...

Hey wait, I'm also from a non-english-speaking country.
So what? I was joking. People are so god damn emotional.

You didn't brought an issue up, friend. You are complaining about not being able to multitask with an assault suit.
Assaults are here to shoot things and replenish their own ammo. You can also do other stuff with that infantry equip slot.

If you want, you can specialize in Logi suits and make an "aggressive" logi. So you could have all the damn infantry slots you want for your god damn AV set, how's that?

Now, answering me with attitude only makes you look silly.

Agora, obrigado por ser mais um idiota que acha que +¬ o unico que fala outras linguas nessa porra.

LOL "writes something in what I assume is Portugese so I can't understand it, feels smarter about himself".

You're still only stating the very obvious....

Its not like there really are any form of argument in your post.

I complain about having less options and possible variations of gameplay, its a very legit complaint. The logi suits can be specced in a combat manner and be if not just as good, pretty close to the assault suits in regards to combat effectiveness. The assault suits gets a sidearm and a little more speed in return for losing so much of their tactical potential.

In my eyes, it will only be the tryhards that will still use the assault suits. Whats the point of losing all that flexibility just to fit a suit thats sligthly better in a gunfight? It makes no sence in my eyes....

actually the assault suits have more than this. assault has more health stock, they have more stamina, more forward speed and alot better STRAFE speed (the strafe speed difference is very significant). this means they can go for more damage while logistic suit has to use some of their slots to catch up to assaults health. even if you catch up to an assault in health your forward movement, strafe speed and stamina will be still lower while doing less damage.
