The game is not very old - CCP tends to introduce modules slowly - look at Eve to see the pattern.

No.
Where are the active mods?
Plus nothing even close to resembling an attempt at creativity. This is a tough one though. I'm drawing a blank here myself and I am usually pretty creative. Only thought about it for like a minute though, that could be part of the problem.

How about killstreak modules? That would be pretty radical right?

What would they do? In crease speed? Increase specific damage type resistance? Have a voice that says different number based kill streak euphemisms in an unessesarily over manly voice? I don't know.

CAT YOU whinging turd CPP have clearly stated they would be starting off with the bare minimum modules, just to see how the update turns out, to create a good core vehicle mechanics. Once they get the vehicle mechanics down pat they are going to introduce more modules.

plenty of suits could be improved with individual bonuses that get better for the higher end gear |

Active modules should be "Reactive Modules".
I.e; you slot a damage resistance module that only activates when you take a certain type of damage after X amount of applied damage (laser, plasma, explosive) and gives you a % to resist that type of damage for X number of seconds. You could have multi-spectrum damage resisters that can respond to multiple types of damage and offer resistance for an even briefer period of time to help you last in firefights.
Modules that cloak you from the TAC net when you've been scanned.
Modules that increase NK damage after you kill X number of people with it.
Modules that increase damage when you're low on health.
Modules that auto-rep you when you're close to death, a one time use type of module.
Modules that increase your shield and armor after you successfully re-hack an objective, allowing you to fortify yourself for defensive purposes.
They can run the gamut of being one time use modules, a set number of uses or simply have cooldowns. This would rid yourself of having to access the cumbersome wheel since they would auto activate under different scenarios. |

Been saying this for months. But since 1.4, all everyone cares about is brick tanking due to broken core mechanics. Even if we had a wider selection of both passive and active modules, everyone would still brick tank because the TTK is too damn low.

This is how you fit a suit.
- Apply 2 Damage Modifiers, possibly 3.
- Stick Shield Extenders in highs.
- Stick Basic or Enhanced Armor Plates in lows.
Occasionally, some flutter nutter replaces some of their plates with Kinetic Catalyzers. Often, players use 1 Armor Repairer. Usually, you either buff your own HP or effectively debuff everyone else's. Resistance plates that are passive would do the same thing. A 25% resist allows you to take 33% more damage before dieing. The formula would be the same, except you'd replace your health with resistance so long as your lifespan is longer with resistance. Active modules would be nice.
Many suits I've worn, many burdens I've borne, for the oaths I've sworn.

I'd really like to see some modules that drastically change the way a suit performs. I've got a couple examples.
Power diverter - reduces shield capacity by 50% but increases armor repair rates by 50%
Shield amplification plates - increases shields by 50% but reduces armor by 50%

Think we should balance what we already have before we try to add more problems to the list.
Would be nice to have more useful mods but there's really no other reason to use anything besides defensive/offensive modules at the moment. Given your talk on skype, I understand you have a propensity for wanting people to use utility modules but there's really nothing else that's useful. Being Gallente Assault who prefers frontline CQC, I can't make much use of shield modules, electronics (dampeners, range amplifiers, codebreakers, etc) or biotic upgrades (myofibril (lmfao), cardiac regulators). So that leaves me with plates, reps and damage mods.
Utility modules are for specialists but a big aspect of being a specialist is being alive long enough to utilize that specialization. Speed doesn't do you much good if you can be scanned down, dampeners don't do you much good if you can be easily seen trudging out in the open. Doesn't leave much room for variety.

More modules that enhance the internal workings of your suit without buffing stats would be nice, such as:
Optical enhancement packages that allow you to zoom in on far away locations, calculate trajectories for parabolic weapons (such as the PLC) and the ability to switch to different spectrums of light. Because infrared vision predator scouts would be pimp.
Grapple hooks. Like the goddam Batman.
"Echo" modules that work to confuse scanners by causing multiple copies of your signature to show on scan, confusing your opponents if their scanners aren't powerful enough to see through the illusion.
EvE inspired Ewar, obviously. I'd love to see target painters that allow swarms to hit a lit up target from any point on the map, like in BF.
God, this game could be so awesome.
Dedicated Commando.
So it's a good job KDR doesn't bother me, really.

I think, given that they have divided the damage mods for vehicles by weapon type thats a good place to expect them to hit next. Although I've been hearing rumors of modules in game that seem questionable. The "Predator Cloaking Devices" is one the devs hinted at, but have also heard of a 'Phased matter module' supposively to let players walk through certain wallsGǪdo not want. |
