I'm just hoping that their team is not draconian to the point where such a massive demonstration of unsatisfied heavies gets waved off because our expectations do not conform to Commander Wang's "stats". lolstats. Judging balance by pub games! GG! do we even HAVE any other game mode right now? FW was up for one day, seen no corp contracts, AND the new map i played on monday poofed (oh, and my sounds are all chromosome build again) hope it comes back soon, and almost at page 30 back to the top!
Himiko Kuronaga SyNergy Gaming EoN. 375	Posted - 2013.05.10 01:52:00 - [572] - Quote I am really truly terrified right now that CCP Shanghai staff are not actually gamers at all and are attempting to build this game purely from stats and theorycraft. Because that does not work. Ever.
SoTa of PoP Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 135	Posted - 2013.05.10 01:53:00 - [573] - Quote How does CCP look at CB data and completely miss how easy it was to avoid HMG/Boundless? Now it's even easier with the added bonus of it not packing the same punch...
DS 10 G I A N T EoN. 276	Posted - 2013.05.10 01:56:00 - [574] - Quote I had my first no death heavy game earlier. Felt good. I missed it. The fit I'm running is a Frame A/1 suit, 2 complex damage mods, 2 enhanced armor plates, Boundless HMG and Toxin SMG (I think). It felt like the MH-82 last build.
Superhero Rawdon Bloodwolves Battalion Alpha Wolf Pack 22	Posted - 2013.05.10 01:59:00 - [575] - Quote as i carry on with the HMG, as i specced into those heavy skills (bc thats where they were b4) not knowing what trash has emerged the ONLY time the HMG is useful (this has been said already too) is that 10meter range...to about 15.....20 if ure lucky...... my longest kill? 33.2 (i think) meters. how? his armor was at about 20 and his shield was gone. and it took about 5 seconds to kill him (yaknow, bullet spread and all) GFG
SoTa of PoP Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 135	Posted - 2013.05.10 02:11:00 - [576] - Quote I think HMG's suck. This is not a bump - just an opinion.

Eisen Sonnet S.e.V.e.N. Gentlemen's Agreement 5	Posted - 2013.05.10 02:22:00 - [579] - Quote Forge Sniping at this point. The HMG is currently less situational viable. That combination of range nerf, DPS nerf, slow turn speed, and spool time make it one of the worst weapons available. If we could trade for higher weapon cost, or higher SP cost to have these heavy weapons actually be worth it I would be totally ok with that. As it stands now, higher and more reliable damage is being output by light weapons along with light weapons offering more variety in styles.
Blammmo Better Hide R Die 25	Posted - 2013.05.10 02:26:00 - [580] - Quote Played a bunch today and the HMG still blows, the only playstyle I can see the heavy now accomplishing is kill theif... I can make kills easy buy letting others wear enemies down then spam HMG rounds like its my job. Lol, don't squad with me unless you are into getting assists

martinofski Rebelles A Quebec Orion Empire 75	Posted - 2013.05.10 02:27:00 - [581] - Quote I wont even play in PC, leaving my place for a corp mates using a Tactical rifle for better results. Best game I made, I did 10 kill and 1 death. Camping a letter in a corner, waiting for the fools to come and hack, when they did, I would walk behind and put my gun right on the back of their head saying : fell those BB pellets you bastard! Edit: yay, first on page 30! lol

Oh baby baby Ops, you think I'm in love? That I was sent from abooooooooove?! I'm not, that, interested in using HMG anymore :(

If I'm rolling with logis, I'll bring out this class. I need nanohives lol. Edit: On a serious note though, the number I wanna see, is the number of heavies playing now, compared to the number of heavies playing in Chromosome.

bill the noon PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 4	Posted - 2013.05.10 03:03:00 - [586] - Quote is any one sic of hearing how heavies are supposed to be point guards not offensive. as though if your defending near a blue objective that suddenly your gun stops sucking.
SoTa of PoP Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 136	Posted - 2013.05.10 03:05:00 - [587] - Quote I just want to know why just because the SUIT is defensive the WEAPON has to be the same thing - they're two different items. HMG = Big gun with big bullets. AR is a small gun with small bullets. Why does one beat the other? Because AR users QQ the hardest. Just because the suit says it's for defensive reasons doesn't mean that's what's explained in the weapons details.

Edit: I just hope they dont decide to just nerf the Tactical AR instead of fixing the other...all that nerfing bring guns to such a low enjoyability. Like the range nerf, which make everyone feel they are not shooting weapons anymore. A tiny buff to the HMG appear enough, if its buffed too high the heavy become too powerfull against cqc scout
Hollow M Ling Pro Hic Immortalis RISE of LEGION 16	Posted - 2013.05.10 03:19:00 - [589] - Quote Currently I have been the MH-82 (I know not a smart move) but I've been doing decent...mostly because the people I've been facing stand still while I shoot them or if my teammates already did damage to the enemy and I just got lucky. It's getting less bad but against good players at range or cqc in adv or proto gear is just a pain. I hope the dev was right and soon we'll get a slight buff.

All they have to do is: GÇó Approach from non-direct angle and fire first shot GÇó Wait 1/4 second for the heavy to start turning GÇó Strafe in the direction the heavy is turning GÇó Fire second shot, possibly third, +50 WP I took the lesson from Annie Oakley II, and used it myself when I was getting sick of certain heavies on the opposite team. It was harder for me to kill Assaults as Scout than Heavies when I used it. Scout approaching HMG Heavy dead-on should honestly be certain death. It would be ridiculous otherwise.

It would be ridiculous otherwise. have to agree with this, i picked up a militia suit and shotgun and did EXACTLY that when i saw really great Heavies on the enemy side (or idiots that pulled out the officer HMG/FG's) now? both classes are a joke

Grenadez Rollack A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. 6	Posted - 2013.05.10 05:00:00 - [596] - Quote I said I was gonna try running with an AR but today I still didnt even turn my ps3 on. I just dont see why I habe to switch to an AR just to be able to enjoy dust. I had put all my sp into heavy class. I had over 8 million sp and spect it all in heavy and can't even kill some players in militia suits. I think ill just sit out and wait and hope they redo the heavy class or give us a chance to respect again. I guess its a giod thing though cause now I give my girl and kids more time and get more sleep for work instead of playing dust all day

Lance 2ballzStrong SyNergy Gaming EoN. 1530	Posted - 2013.05.10 05:38:00 - [600] - Quote Brought out Proto everything heavy + 2 complex dmg mods. went 24-0 and 32-2 against organized players. They basically ran TOWARDS me for the most part. People really disrespected the heavy so much that they're running towards us again. Normally only noobs would do this, but hey, if you have a duvolle, then lolheavies. It was a CQC map. Normally people would have had more caution when hearing a heavy, but I guess not. Btw, this map usually has 3+ heavies on it...this time it was just me, and some poor proto heavy on the other side. I felt sorry for that guy. I got killed a few times in his proto stuff. But yeah, this shows you can't have a heavy suit as your primary class, as it suits certain maps, at certain areas. Wanna make money and not get frustrated, have an Assault class, and when the map you're most comfortable with as a heavy comes around, pull it. Til they fix it, that's the only solution I have.
