If the follow changes are made.

1. Bring HMG. It will give a good alternative to SG (which rely heavily on JP). It will give non-JP marine some viability in the game.
2. Exo alternative:
Cost 20
less armor than exo but still immune to gas
Same speed as regular marine and can be use phase gate becon.
Buy the weapons Individually
Upgrade for dual wield
(if you really want you can just call this Heavy 2.0)


Get it as alternative to JP and not make it so make/break (require so much baby sitting as well).
Both of those will give more varieties to the game.
You can have HMG with any armor. Or heavy with any combination of gun, like SG + Flamer. GL+Welder. HMG+HMG..

3. Web to slow down people (I miss that from NS1)
4. Ability for Lurk to pick alien up :)

5. Make pickup weapon easier, I cant count how many times I died because I tired to pick up a weapon...but it disappears just as I dropped my...leaving me with nothing.

    Well, yes. Ideas are better than gold by a long shot for Humans.

    Web, apparently under serious consdieration.

    Battlemech <someone name them> non mech troopers, dunno, would have to move slower than an Exo on the ground to movement balance.

    Buy weapons indiv is in the game, I'm sure they are open to suggestions on what to buy.

    Lerk lift, Gorge is bigger, dunno if that makes momentum sense, I'd *love* it. Wing span upgrade?

    Weapon drop time out animation length, alot of that fancy stuff would be sorely missed, the last thing the game needs is more RED, how do we identify non dynamic objects?

    If someone could post Lmg stats, some damg stas etc, where would the Hmg eventuate? I'm kinda slowly getting (except when nailed by individual skill of opponents) convinced a1/a2/w1 is better than a1/w1/anything. Some guy already said it, *the less time you spend in a1, the better* ... I like to look at it as rate of change effect, if you can accelerate your armoury tech enough to go a1/a2/w1/* or w1/shotgun/a1/a2 you are happy as a com and I personally think already have enough res to continue your forward momentum. Especially if you have provided the occasionally lucky med pack.

    Pro tip: Don't shoot a cyst then ask for ammo.

    1. HMG is awesome and I would welcome it's return with open arms, although it'll probably never happen.
    2. Exos don't need an alternative, but if you've paid attention at all to upcoming updates, railguns are on the way for marines.
    3. Webs are also on the way for gorges. Coming with the railguns. This is pretty much a useless comment.
    4. Lerks picking things up was a mod from NS1. I wouldn't mind seeing it return in some fashion, even if all that they can pick up is a gorge.
    5. Seems worthless. You can pick up your dropped weapon even if you failed to pick up the other weapon. This one is on you, UWE can't fix stupid player actions.

    3. I guess railing gun is the new HMG, w/e they call it its fine with me (However I think it would be harder to balance the heat mechanism with fast moving marine than the slow reload of HMG)

    4. Imagine the possibility of flying biobomb

    5. The problem is that sometimes you are running to dangerous situation trying to save the weapon, only to see it disappear after you drop your old one. Yes you can pick it up again, but by the time you do that you are more than likely dead.

    Where do I find upcoming update?
