thoughts on heavy offense and heavy armor in general

After pubbing for a couple days I've began to realize just how powerful 4 turrets are. It seems that once you make it in the door there is a disk and 4 turrets that are there to immediately demolish you... you have time to get one mortar off. if you are wearing a shield pack and activate it, you have time to get 2 mortars off.

imo combined with HD/MD/LD or even just the turrets alone, you can put too many within one small area and they are a tad powerful

maybe its not so much the turrets but the heavy armor may be way too vulnerable. in t1 and even in t2. it took a while to just disk a heavy, thus mine disking and using nades

thoughts?

with coordinated attacks/teamwork, I don't think its an issue. The turrets and d players should be able to take out 1 heavy quite easily imo.

I think it is a different game with different strategies and it is fine the way it is.

The only thing I think should change is one mortar should disable a turret, even if it's not a perfect hit. I also dislike that discs seem to knock around heavies a little much, but the turret thing is the biggest problem IMO.

The thing that annoys me most about heavies is the bouncyness. They should be harder for other players to move.

refer to this thread

I believe the heavy should not be bounced around by a disc or mortar like a light would... After all, they are a giant, walking tank. Where is the mass and weight? Unfortunately, since T:V is feature complete, this may not be added in until after release or mod... I also suggest that heavies have 200 health. If heavies are gonna be bounced like lights, might as well have a little more health to offset the disorientation.
