HA = 9 certs?

Will it? If Re eXo becomes required to get HA.

Re eXo--= 3
MA------= 2
HA------= 4
__________
too much! 9

I think Re eXo should be 2, I think almost everybody uses it. I don't know if HA should go down to 3 though.

Just kidding dude. Yeah, if they were to make the Reinforced Exosuit a prerequisite of Heavy Assault, you would have to spend 9 certification points in total to use Heavy Assault weapons.

why is this bad? for vets, i can understand. but it keeps little newbie hands outfit dangerous weapons. they would have to actually get SOME field experiance before going for the big guns.

Wow, I never thought about it that way. YES! Great idea SOE!

Well, if they do that then HA will be the ONLY thing players straight out of VR training can't get their "newbie hands" on. I think reavers, heavy tanks, MAX Units, ect. are "big guns" too... so why pick on HA?

Anyway, I have no problem with someone brand new getting anything he/she wants to specialize in. The way the game currently works is that experience and BR give you more options... not more raw power.

This way new players can hang and are encouraged to continue playing. 7-day trial players who show up and get owned contunually because they don't have access the better gear might just leave. I want more new players not less...

thats a lot coming from an NC (no offence intended) a lot of NC LOVE HA because of the Jackhammer

That would suck I would hate that so much.

WarZone · 2003-12-02, 10:56 AM

Bad idea. I don't think I would continue playing if they make Rexo a requirement for HA. The game is already too slow let alone confining me to Rexo armor. Just not worth it when UT2K4 is around the corner. I hope SOE realizes they are catering to a lot of different types of gamers and not every one has a problem with surge and HA.

I agree that changing the certs for HA could make a lot of people unhappy. If SOE is really convinced the surge/ja combo is overpowered (I'm not saying it is or isn't), then they should look at it separately.

I think 4 certs for HA is enough of a cost.

Kikinchikin · 2003-12-02, 12:14 PM

nope dont like that idea at all. I just ditched reinforced because i realized that especially in a tower fight, surging in agile is much more effective. You'd be suprrised I got 10 max kills in one tower fight by surging with a decimator. My loadout now is an MCG three ammo boxes and 2 decis, also i ahve one with a sniper rifle and an MCG, thumper/deci, rocklet/deci and a few others that are just variations. I love my MCG so if they make rexo a prerequisite i will not be happy.

Queensidecastle · 2003-12-02, 12:22 PM

Considering all they need to do is just tweak the system already in place for Surging (Stamina), there is no reason whatsoever to take away Heavy assault from Agile and Standard vests. It just needs to drain your stamina much faster in those vests to attempt surging with Heavy assault equipped

sutserikeru · 2003-12-02, 12:41 PM

doesnt surging stamina drain faster when weilding a weapon?

I Hate Pants · 2003-12-02, 12:54 PM

AWWWW! Poor babies.Whats the matter? Can't stand the thought of not being able mow down other players without your HA weapons? Try using MA weapons like all us skilled players. I prefer to work for my kills thank you very much.

Nothing more staisfying then killing 3 JH n00bs with a cycler!
