this would be perfect.....

A jetpack that has 2 hmgs attacked to it with built in CRU and supply depot with the ability to drop fused locus grenades rapidly

I'd rather this.

I mean just look at the detail in the concept art, I think this is what 1.4 will give us, if not 1.5.

Oh my god I just realized

Whenever "jump packs" are introduced there should be racial variants and the minmatar one should just be 2 HMGs taped together and pointed down, using the kick to get the player airborne

Every part of CCP should stop working on what they're doing now and focus on this

That's brings to my attention that in order for it to be viable and balanced further it would definitely need 50% more hp than a fully sp invested tank

here is how i belive this idea could work, and for each race

Gallente: this looks and sounds like a basic jetpack, but fueled by plasma, it would be the, stealthiest jetpack in the game with a short amount of in air time.
Caldari: this jetpack would be the most visible on your radar considering it uses thousands of volts of charged electricity to power up. though it would have the longest in air time, and faster recharge time.
Minmatar: this would use a type of special fuel that can be ignited even with no oxygen (maybe plasma infused) this jetpack however it would be more of a jump pack that quickly boosts you very high, then at the last second brings you to a soft landing, it would have the shortest in air time.
Amarr: ??? i don't know how lazers would hold you up, or make you fly considering they are still just focused beams of light ???

i still gotta figure what the racial bonuses would be, and i probably won't come out with exact stat's on the jetpacks. Also i wanna try and give the jetpack it's own small gun without it being the main weapon you use, instead you would use your regular and sidearm weapon, and only for... maybe jetpack on jetpack combat you would use the turret.

bump....

again....

must not let thread die...

^This plus a laser rifle attached to my helmet that automatically fires when there's an enemy in my reticle.

keep em alive then u have the best ideas ever for this game!

Screw your logic all jump packs are powered my null cannons that have 100ft blast radius at 20k splash damage and 100k direct

I'd rather see aerial drones than jetpacks. Like in KZ3, throw down a beacon and the bot will patrol the perimeter around it. I hate jetpacks. If we're talking adding to the air game, how about some light armor single seat attack ships or dropships with bombing capabilities?

don't forget about a 360-¦ active scanning device which scans all the time!
And that ting needs Laser Rifles! Atleast 2 per side! and 1 on bottom and another one on top.
It also needs shotguns, otherwise it would be horribly UP in CQC!
