that's it, i give up, everyone's attention span must have been reached

I will be uploading my gameplay from the past couple days to youtube soon. Is there a way you guys at CCP could take a look at it? See if everything is working as intended?

Thanks for your efforts man. I think we might have done enough. We'll have to wait and see how it's re-balanced.

By all means. Please post the link and we'll check it out.

Just a little thing, in the real world, range of a HMG M2-HB Browing (cal 50) = 1200 meters. Range of a assault rifle = 300-400 meters.

That's not true for assault rifles. Effective range for an M-16 A2 is 550 yards so approximately 503 meters. Farthest I ever had to put rounds on a target in boot camp was 500 yards (USMC) and that's on a target that is human sized. Max effective range against a vehicle is 800 yards or about 731 1/2 meters.

I think with the current maps design, we should have received another race for the heavy, a shield, fast version for "running" around and turning at reasonnable speeds so we can track the guy running and jumping in minmatar logi using their 4high,4low,4equip setup and duvolles.

This patch was indead bad for the heavys since you either use what is available and run the sentinel that you don't want, or you do like me and don't upgrade the dropsuit and use the militia one to save your SP.

Yeah... right now only the Amarr heavy frame model is complete. In Uprising we've started pushing all the suits more into specific race profiles, but of course when you're missing 75% of the other frame options you're bound to have some balance holes. The Caldari, Minmatar and Gallente heavy frames are coming, but not as soon as we'd all like.

To that point though, how would you guys like us to approach that? Would you want Type-IIs and more sidegrade variants to tide you over until the other suits come online? (Even knowing that we'll probably retire them once the others arrive?)

Even the USMC isn't that hardcore that they can improve your eyesight. Unless that is a full 6 ft. fat guy standing 500 meters away and your weapon is zeroed to 500 meters. I still don't see it.

Having more choices in suits is always a good thing. Having said that, I didn't really have a problem with the current suits other than being forced to spec into only 1 race.

Slower mobility is a pain, but it becomes even more of a pain with the limitations of the current HMG. If we had more range / dmg / tighter spread / something that improves the HMG in general, then adapting to a slower suit becomes easier. Like if I had this suit in the last build but with the old HMG stats, it would have been a matter of changing playstyle, to a more defensive role due to lack of mobility and speed.

Faster suits encourages a more aggressive heavy playstyle...at least for me!

same here. so hope the caldari heavy is an attack heavy of some sort

Point target training with an M-16 is 550 meters. 800 meters on things like hummvees and tightly grouped idiots.

browning HMG: over a mile 2500 meters is the longest confirmed kill with a 'ma deuce.

.30 cal machineguns are just shy of 2000 meters

Assault rifles range between 400-600 ironsights depending on model.

Don't post what you have no clue about. Especially not the marines if you have never been one.

I am a soldier. 550 meters?
