I'm pissed off.
CCP get your **** together. Stop listening to all the carebears that can't play this game.

It's my turn to whine.
When Uprising came out on Monday, I adapted.
I adjusted to the sharpshooter removal, and picked up a mass driver.
I stuck to my role as a logi, and specced my 10 million SP into the Gallente Logistics proto suit.

I was enjoying myself. The game felt fairly balanced.
I had/have 3 complex armor reppers, two basic plates, and 3 complex shield extenders.
This meant that I could take a beating, while not necessarily being able to dish much of it out myself.
THIS IS THE PROPER WAY A LOGI SHOULD BE.

Fast forward to today. You moneygrubbing developers listened to all the 1 million SP noobs whining that they can no longer kill anything, and that fights were taking too long in general. You handed out a free 10% damage bonus to every handheld gun in the game.

Great. Guess what?
I'm screwed. It's frustrating as hell to join a game solo now.
A free dragonfly scout rocking a GLU tactical rifle comes at me, and it's now a challenge.
Two? Forget it, I'm running.
But, oh wait, I'm armor tanked, and in a logistics suit. It's hard as hell for me to run.
Add to that the increased range and damage of these GLU tactical rifles that are taking potshots at me from all angles, and...
You've essentially made this game unplayable, unejoyable, and unfun, for what should be the best suit for the logistics class.

...
TLDR:
Everyone and their mom is in a Caldari logistics suit for the increased shielding.
Those that were brave enough to go gallente for the -25% equipment CPU/PG usage,
got the serious shaft today as armor does not hold up nearly as well under fire to the armada of noobs carrying +10% damage modded GLU tactical rifles.
God. Damn. This. Game.

"Also quit playing solo wrong game."

Anyone that knows me, knows that I like to play solo, at least part of the time.
By solo, I mean, without my corporation as squadmates.

I like to heal / help strangers from time to time, for whatever reason.
And it helps me to step up my game, by proving to myself that I can hold my own, working with a random group of blueberries, hopefully nudging them in the right direction without raging too much into my mic.

I should be able to join a game solo, and hold my own.
And I'm saying, right now, with today's 10% buff, the game feels, obviously broken for logis like me.
Sure, I'll 90% of the time go positive. But it's always painful, and nearly always an ISK loser.

Maybe, I guess I'll just suck it up, because I won't see any of you scrubs after the 14th, as everyone of any worth SHOULD be in faction warfare.
But there's a definite balance issue here at work that feels completely off.
And I don't know what the solution is.

JUST, that all logis in general should not be nerfed.
And I swear to god if that's what happens I'm quitting for good.

...
Although personally, if logis could move faster and sacrifice the main weapon for a sidearm only,
i would really not care in the slightest.

My suit 5.2k, your doing it wrong

Gallente suits in general need a bonus of -2% movement penalty per level when equipping armor plates. Or armor needs to administer a stamina penalty instead of movement. That way the gallente scouts can use plates but keep their speed and GaLogis can use plates efficiently.

It's cool to see Gallente armor tankers chiming in.

Tip for new bros: You can fit x2 Enhanced Armor Repair and x1 Enhanced plate to your militia suit with ease. Have to sacrifice advanced AR, but you can still rock advanced AV nades if needed. Swap the plate with an enhanced cardiac regulator for more stamina and no speed penalty. Get biotics upgrades to 5 and the speed penalty from your plate is negated. Minnie militia has no lows so I find the Gallente suit more new player friendly. Caldari is old skool. Long live the Federation!

I feel your pain OP, I went Amarr for my toons faction.

OOPS!

I think CCP wanted Amarr to appeal to the assault logis, but we have crap for slots and equipment cause we can have a side arm that is never needed.

Sad face.
