I've been here over a year, I'm well aware of their "roadmap"

What I'm saying is that....

You know what.

**** it. I don't care.

We say we want content - then cry when we get it - why is that?

that's....absolutely terrible...

Maps and game modes are new content.

A heavy with two light weapons is 2 development hours of copy and pasting.

Irony fail, you failed to comprehend the message of his OP, which clearly states our problem with the commando suit

Commando suit is going to wreck vehicles from places where you need snipers to get rid of them

This is so dumb that it actually hurts.

Anyone can do that. Having 2 swarm launchers on one person and a hive isn't a whole lot different than 1 swarm launcher with a hive.

Besides, can I get a poll

Heavies. How many of you have spec'd into Swarm Launchers or Plasma Cannons. How many of you intend to?

It has an equipment slot you dumbass and its cheap as chips to lvl up the SL anyways

And as far as we know has less speed than a heavy, and less health. Militia sniper rifle? Jeez I hate these forums some days.

Commando, the new scary AV. It can't waddle out to you, but god damn if you drive next to him you're gonna be hurting when he's shooting the exact same things at you that anyone else does

The suit will have less health with same speed.

Link for speed confirmation?

Having the same or less speed as a normal heavy will kill this specialization before it's even patched in.

If it will have less HP than a sentinel suit, this has to move faster.... There is a tradeoff/balance between speed and tank OF COURSE.

We're supposed to get the Commando Dev Blog today, this ought to be rich.

If its a heavy suit with the same speed as its racial logi though.. hmm.. that might work. It absolutely needs more slots though.

I really think... for balance... that H + S + G = L + L in terms of weapon slots... and it should have very near the same amount of slots that the amarr sentinel suit has. If the Amarr sentinel has 5 slots at proto... I think this suit needs 4 slots.

2H/2L would make a lot more sense for this suit imo, base stats around 300/300 - 320/320 (vs. 405/405 for the sentinel and 180/180 for assault) and move speed of 4.2 (vs. 4.8 for amarr assault and 3.4 for amarr sentinel).

This kind of gives it a cool middle ground between sentinel and medium frames.

Now for EHP.. you can somewhat reverse engineer what remnant decided as base HP for that suit. You need to look at every combination of armor upgrades and shield upgrades... and you can see that he has 1 complex shield extender on it. This gives him a modified hp of 392/312. Now I reverse engineered every combination of shield and armor upgrades given he has a single 72 hp shield extender on there, and I could not find a combination that gives him 312 armor. However.. If I say the extender is only worth 66 hp, I do get a single point that rounds to 312.

This disturbs me a little... If he has a complex extender on there he should have 72... so now im wondering if he's changed shield extension to no longer give a 10% bonus to extenders... or if he's changed armor/shield upgrades to no longer give 5% to shields and armor.

Anyways.. the number I could reverse engineer to get 392 shields and 312 armor with 1 66 hp shield extender was 271 armor and shields (this is also assuming amarr commando has the same shields and armor... but they all do so I think that's safe). He also has shield upgrades at 4 and armor upgrades at level 3.
