Points for racism! (I should add that I think people with pre-Dust-Launch characters should be offered at least a one-time chance to change their race and associated starter-fit availability... or the latter if nothing else).
I think racial variety would be great, especially in the context of differentiating possible roles for the given races out of the gate. There's some problems here in that there is a decided lack of racial variety in Heavy and Light suits (and some missing weapons). So, I'll just make up stuff:
Amarr Assault
1x MLT DMG Mod
1x MLT High Slot Armor Hardener Mod that doesn't exist yet
1x MLT Scrambler Rifle
1x MLT Scrambler Pistol
1x MLT Grenade
Minmatar Assault
1x MLT Shield Extender
1x MLT Shield Recharger
1x MLT Cardio Regulator
1x MLT Combat Rifle doesn't exist
1x MLT Flaylock Pistol doesn't exist
Caldari Assault
1x MLT Shield Extender
1x MLT Shield Extender
1x MLT Shield Regulator
1x MLT Rail Rifle doesn't exist
1x MLT Bolt Pistol doesn't exist
1x MLT Flux Grenade doesn't exist
Gallente Assault
1x MLT Armor Repairer
1x MLT Armor Repairer
1x MLT Armor Plates
1x MLT Plasma Rifle
1x MLT Ion Pistol doesn't exist
1x MLT Grenade
I'd echo the idea of more interesting role suits as well. Pre-uprising you could actually have a little BPO fit for Logistics/Heavy because you chose that when you made your character. It's comparably much more difficult to try out logistics now than it was then (Heavy MLT suits are relatively cheap though). It gets harder to guess the other racial fits with the lack of information we have:
Gallente Heavy
1x MLT Plasma Thrower
1x MLT Burst Ion Pistol
Amarr Heavy
1x MLT Gatling Laser/1x Heavy Laser
1x MLT Burst Scrambler SMG
Minmatar Heavy
1x MLT HMG
1x MLT SMG
Caldari Heavy
1x MLT Forge Gun
1x MLT Magsec SMG
So, I suppose there's issues here of a lack of MLT variants, racial differentiation, old players being stuck with prior racial choices, and uninviting variety in the early suit types. |

Nice list you got there. Also, flux grenades exist already.
Do Militia Flux exist? |

Also the Gallente should get the flux grenades since they were made by them; they look Gallente and are green. Also what about giving the Caldari AV-grenades since those are Caldari designed.
Edit: The Minmatar should get the MLT grenades and the Amarr should get some kind of Amarrian grenade, maybe a stasis Webifier.
I'd be fine with any differentiation, compared to what we have now. I'm wondering how much higher the fitting reqs would be on a MLT Scrambler, since the STD version is already 11 PG. Might make for tight fitting considering the MLT Scrambler Pistol is 5 PG. |
