Heavy armor will be too overpowered. Devour is pretty much the only way to deal with them, and that got removed for some stupid reason. THoughts on this?

    Why are you making a new thread for every idea that pops into your head?

    Those are my thoughts on this matter.

    Judging stuff that is not yet in-game is very useful...

    This is what, the third ###### thread you've made?

    Contrary to popular belief, Devour was not always in NS1, and we still had plenty of fun, balanced games...

    yeah, more trolling! you should be more creative and change nicks between topics. "Impatient22" would be an option

    You guys cant know if he trolls or actually are serious, so you should act as if it is serious, and not just flame on him :P.

    My thought on this matter, HA wont be op, because I got a feeling the onos will damage alot against armor, making it not very hard to take a HA down as onos. They could also include several drawbacks, like in ns1 HA is slower than normal rine. In ns2 it could include making more noise, maybe have more lights on the armor and why not cost to get?

    Yeah, heavy armor should definately be made of cotton! I think it would contribute not only to the balance, but also support those poor farmers in the south. Oh how middleearth is treating them harshly!

    The irony is devour was dropped because it was too overpowered.

    The onos has bone shield which makes it immune to bullets in the direction it's facing, the HA is armed with dual miniguns as its main feature.

    Bullet immunity vs a thing that shoots lots of bullets.

    I see no problem here.

    OP is going to be OP without OP.

    Onos has Bone shield meaning takes no damage on front armor. I'm sure Onos players will utilize that to get real close to Exoskeleton players. Of course exo's will have a lockdown mode (see churchill tanks in Company of Heroes), but probably be limited to arc of fire range like the sentry guns. So if an Onos can get behind the exo skeleton, I wouldn't be suprised if that's UWE's plan.

    Yah, discussing features that aren't even playable yet. Closing this.
