Scouts are too slim to be heavy, so no.

Facepalm *shakes his head*

Scouts are all but pointless until we can get some useful specialisation bonuses.
Light frames should have been given the 2light weapon specialisation IMO.

Which headcase came up with the idea of making someone go through a heavy dropsuit in order to make the most of several light weapons?
We already had the immensley popular black eagle suits. So the precedent was set.

Good point the duel wield light weapon would have been far more sexy on the scout.

With uprising, scout took a nose dive off the high dive into a dry pool, and things since just seem to be sliding further and further down hill...

Will scout be left out in the cold for an extended period of time?

This so hard.

Primary purpose of the heavy dropsuits? Access to special weapons in the heavy category. Let's make a heavy suit which then foregoes them!

A light suit would make so much more sense for the commando role. Has the speed to move to either weapon's optimal engagement position rapidly and respond fast to battlefield conditions. Balanced by it's innate vulnerability.

As a heavy with a breach forge gun, I won a boxing contest with a heavy suit using an HMG, I didn't expect to win at all.

you meant Speed tanking is the new OP role... right ?

You thread tittle is a bit misleading ...

I wanted it to throw people for a loop.
