    3:00 LMGs and their ammo are among the heaviest, unless weapon stats radically changed in 4.0. Some of the more efficient weapons in weight were things like the custodian. And less so, the Gallant.
    Backpacks also add a lot of weight, and no longer block shots like they used to. Basically anything that you equip or wear or carry in inventory adds weight.

    Something important to note is that you don't need heavy on all armor parts. I'm a main fps player on SC since I'm also a huge player of competitive fps outside of SC, and my go to loadout hasn't changed much since they introduced different strafe speed depending on the equipped armor parts.
    That's what I run if I know I'll be facing multiple people at once in CQC :
    - heavy helmet & chest
    - medium arms & legs
    - light backpack
    - karna + FS9 (karna for the accuracy and good breakpoints, FS9 for the uptime which will often save your life)
    - revolver
    And that's my loadout on open maps when I wanna play at range and kite rather than brawl in CQC :
    - heavy helmet
    - medium chest
    - light arms & legs
    - light backpack
    - karna + lmg or sniper depending on the map
    - revolver
    The most important part to protect is obviously the head to reduce ohko breakpoints, and then the chest for pretty much the same reasons + it has the largest hitbox so it'll most likely get hit the most. As for legs & arms, you only want enough dmg reduction to not get T3/T2 injuries too often. The thing is that, regardless of your armor, you'll still get injured a lot on legs and arms so you might as well use lighter parts to boost your strafe speed.
    Also, I understand your point of "more armor is always better over speed", but that's not always true. If you have poor spatial awareness and/or aren't a good fps player, then yeah full heavy is the way to go since it's way more forgiving. However, it's also lowering your skill ceiling as it makes you much slower, especially when strafing.
    So if you're confident in your aim and know how to position yourself, being able to strafe and sprint faster will always give you a massive edge over someone who's in full heavy, especially against players in the PU who are average in fps for the most part.
    That's why mixing armor type is so important imo, as you can get the best of both worlds : heavy gives you the best protection and reduce breakpoints (even ohko) for the most sensitive parts (head, chest), while lighter armor for the limbs give you better strafe speed and thus dodge shots more easily.
    As for the weapons, karna / p4 are good primaries. They are very accurate if you compensate their recoil, so you can basically beam people's heads with them. FS9 on the other hand gives you a much better uptime than rifles while still having good ttk and an easy recoil to manage.
    And lastly, always slot a light backpack, unless you're doing an OP with your org and you know you'll stay in fps for a while. But even then don't go over a medium backpack, since a large backpack does nothing more than slowing you down and making you appear bigger.

      @@Coastin you can make a vid about it if you want, it's not like it's secret knowledge or anything. It's just that few people know about this because they don't bother theory crafting, nor do they know exactly what armour does, so most of the times they just go full heavy and call it a day. And tbf, full heavy is indeed the right choice for someone who's bad at fps since he wouldn't benefit from the extra strafe speed & mobility as much as the extra ehp anyway.

    I did the same build as you, but since i ran with an org, i use fas9 with a surpressor, due to my poor sight i had to use reflex sights. Then i came with a noob tube. This was the best set up since allot of new fps players stack up, allowing me to kill multiple players. Although p4 would give better stats, it dosent give survivability since you have to continuously reload.
    In a squad of ten. We do rifleman with a sniper, geranadeer with fs9. With these, its easier and versatile when doing the hangars. But farming cards, yea. Fs9s are clutch. Never do f55s they dont burst

    This is what I wish CIG focused more on. Reasons to not use ships. I expected more ground gameplay, and to have long sessions without even touching my ship. Drive my bike on a planet between locations. But for what ever reason. this simple yet most gameplay impactful focus is not on their priority. they would rather spend time on stupid ships than make the game. I will not support CIG any more till they prove gameplay is more important to them than selling ships and money.

    In close combat, hallways and stairs are the worst place to be for the assault element. Maybe it wasn't 'the best move' in retrospect but moving aggressively through it once you made the commitment was the right play even if it didn't work out in this instance.

    Oh gosh not another META video smh. Use what you're most comfortable with folks. All the weapons are decent depending on what you are using them for. The game isn't fleshed out and neither are the guns totally.

      You didn’t watch the video, yes his weapon recommendation is pure preference, but his combat tactics and strategy in the video matter much more and his armor suggestion is probably accurate.
      He labeled it a meta build but its a combat guide as a whole as his tactics are more helpful than any weapon choice.
