Change heavy assault class name..


Does anybody else find this extremely annoying that a class in PS2 has the same designation as a weapon set as PS1? Id like to see it renamed to something more representative of the armour type.

Like Reinforced assault or even something lame like a juggernaut, even that would better IMO.

Like does anybody know what the weapons lasher, MCG and JH are designated as now since they cant really be "heavy assault weapons" thats leaves it too confusing with the HA class been able to use LMG's too.

Honestly, I think its fine the way it is. I wouldn't hate to see it changed, but I think its okay.

Juggernaut sounds like a mech, not a heavy assault trooper.

Rexo is shorthand for Reinforced Exosuit.

I see no reason to rename Heavy Assault. The designation goes hand in hand with Light Assault. The heavy assault weapons can just be called heavy weapons.

I don't really see a reason to change it anyways... I really, really don't.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is how this goes.

oh its related :P its practically what the HA class should have been called. since that was the heavy armour infantry in PS1. typically thats the only way you would carry AV(not inc decimaters)

Heavy assault = class
Heavy assault weapons = big AI weapons

New game, new definitions

I see nothing wrong with a Heavy Assault soldier carrying a Heavy Assault weapon. It brings coherency.

I quite like heavy assault. The name has weight to it, literally.

Eh, I don't really care either way tbh. The name kind of means what it says... holds the heavy guns.
