Heavy Weapon Support Class

Raffie

Player would be slow to move due to weight of weapon.
Weapon does good dmg even at moderat ranges.
When firing weapon its got a kick and auto firing can only be done in small burst due to aim jumping a lot.

With a upgrade option user can use a tri pod and player is in pron position and firing bigger burst is easier to do.
Great for defense .

If anything we want to discourage marine turtling, not encourage it.

Idea shot down.

We dont know yet how the weapons will work and what items are available for marines.

Aprovement: Not possible.

I don't think the player should EVER be in "pron position."

While I don't agree with classes (or pr0n positioning) I do agree with heavier weapons (and fuller loadouts) making marines slower.

Also I think being able to make loadout choices beyong primary weapon to suit your player style would be cool.

Also defensive marines strategies should be available as a legit strategies, as long as aliens have suitable counters.

Also turtling can be fun sometimes but it should be balanced so it's become costly to maintain the turtle and thus not making it a frequent strategies. However everyonce in a while it could add some variety. And variety is always good in a game.

Pron position.

This is going to become a NS2 inside joek.
