Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 1096	Posted - 2014.02.15 05:23:00 - [9] - Quote Not even going to try anymore until there are more militia items. Also, we only need Frontline (assault/damage), medic (assault/defense), Sniper (light), and anti-armor (heavy) WE know about the extra classes that you're trying to create and what they're roles should be, but chances are that the newer players don't. Giving them too many options may be a negative thing. Unless, of course, Academy is fixed until 25wp and you unlock the other roles as pre-fitted BPC when they reach 10k WP or something. This way, there won't be much of an impact on BPOs and they'll learn their play style and how to minimize loss since they only have say 100 suits of the pre-fitted roles. But again, you have to add/fix a few things first before recreating the starter suits.

There is no militia scrambler or laser rifle so I didn't put them in but I would give the Frontline a scrambler and the Heavy a LR. I know it sounds weird because of the current bonus but it is almost as good as the assaults heat build up bonus. A heavy doesn't have to have a heavy weapon. I have a templar set and I use the LR on the sentential, I love that suit with that rifle. I like the combo enough that I am about to put some SP in to heavy suits as they are now. Their turn speed and large pool of HP make the laser rifle pretty easier to use. All of these suits need a static bonus that is different from any other suit's bonus. The bonus needs to emphasize one thing and be good enough that it allows us to alter the starter fits enough so that dumping SP into a suit isn't needed until the core is leveled up. Much like the suits we have now but with a bonus. The starter fits we have now are very robust and with good core skills can save a lot of ISK and SP because you don't have to use higher tier suits to be able to stay in the fight.

Will update once I get back on PS3 if no one has done it by that time.
Jack Kittinger Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 133	Posted - 2014.02.15 05:45:00 - [15] - Quote So a hint on OP or other post to make a Heavy Anti Vehicle which I'm guessing would be a heavy with a mlt forge gun and whatever heavy AV weapons they come up later on; the idea of ANY heavy frame being part of the Starter fits seems a blatant overlooking of the chance to just change that yellow frame to be a cheap pseudo assault. I believe even AV heavies shouldn't ever be included as starter because it is so cheap to have that kind of fit even as a casual or low SP toon that it should be something that you think of putting together than just a default option. Anyhow, One suit I would love to see tweaked, ever so slightly, any and all Medic frames. Please include a Rep Tool, this focuses more on support and patching your teammates than being an opportunist looking for those sweet WP's A scout starter fit would be idyllic for more people to dip their toe and realize how useful it can be, regardless of HP.

Sgt Kirk Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 4687	Posted - 2014.02.15 06:06:00 - [16] - Quote I'm confused. Is this implying that there will be militia items for the new suits as well?
Lynn Beck Granite Mercenary Division Top Men. 746	Posted - 2014.02.15 06:09:00 - [17] - Quote Most likely not, but it's more of a 'rather than Ccp make them up(and we all know how good they are at that lol)I'm askin you guys what you think these stsrter fits should be' For instance the Gallente fits ALL feature 2 rep 1 armor. The minmatar medic has a damage mod and a myrofib(blue bottle) Caldari sniper has a cardireg and 2 rechargers. Amarr has no low slots (WTF.)

Magnus Amadeuss Tal-Romon Legion Amarr Empire 450	Posted - 2014.02.15 06:34:00 - [18] - Quote Amarr: Sniper : none available, must use caldari sniper weapon Medic: none available, must use caldari needles/minmatar reps Recon: Amarr scout/amarr uplinks Frontline: just change the rifle to a scrambler Heavy AV : none available Heavy : no weapon available Of course the amarr medium frames should change from 2 high slots to 2 low slots and they should both be armor plates. Real simple actually for amarr: Highs (if any) should be damage, lows should be plates. All suits should use Scrambler/Scrambler pistol and thats it because we only have 3 weapons and I wouldn't wish the laser rifle on a noob. QED. Just because there is suit racial parity doesn't mean that we have enough to make a starter fit racial parity. Amarrians have no: Grenades Heavy weapons Sniper rifles 2nd equipment type AV So it is pretty difficult to make amarr starter suits like that. While there is no better place to be wealthy than the Gallente Federation, there is no hell worse for the poor either.

The Eristic Sad Panda Solutions 191	Posted - 2014.02.15 07:19:00 - [20] - Quote Do the actual classes need to be 1-to-1 identical across the races? Will the Amarr, for instance, ever have an actual Sniper Rifle or Shotgun or Light AV? Why not create Mil versions of their ALL the weapons and build the starter classes around the more interesting playstyles some of them allow? Amarr Suppressor w/ LR, Min Demo with MD, Gal Breacher with PlC (or Shotgun, if you wanna be... casul), et cetera. Could list the starter fits at racial selection screen, or at least info about a race's style to guide new players' choice.

While that does make sense considering what ee have now- we can't have Amarr completeley lacking in a reliable anti vehicle measure. Same as caldari lacking a CQC building breacher-aka shotgun. Same with a Gallente answer to Long range firepower- in Eve that's accomplished with drones. Along those same lines- minmatar for the longest time needed SOME way to breach a heavily defended building with cover- thus the heavy will be born. Amarr needed a fast response intel relayer.scout. For the tome being though, we could have Amarr use the Caldari Sniper, same for the gallente. Amarr's AV could be the swarm, as they also use missile tech.

Zeylon Rho Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 3436	Posted - 2014.02.15 08:00:00 - [22] - Quote Since it's "on-topic" here, I'll note that I made a post about adding a MLT Assault Scrambler Rifle. Why a MLT Assault Scrambler and not a regular one? Well, because the math on the regular one means that the Amarr Frontline is capped out on PG with a STD Scrambler slotted and no skills - so, if you want to do the normal MLT thing and raise the fitting, you can't use a STD Scrambler as-is. Note that the Amarr Frontline model is currently: 2 MLT Light Damage mods 1 MLT AR 1 MLT Scrambler Pistol 1 MLT Locus Grenade So, it's not a particularly exotic fitting that's straining it. There's also some balance issues with existing stats. The MLT Scrambler Pistol and MLT SMG have the same fitting stats (20 CPU, 5 PG), the STD Scrambler Pistol on the other hand has lower fitting than a STD SMG - so the MLT Scrambler Pistol is being penalized for some reason, relative to the other available MLT sidearm. As has been pointed out, the Amarr Militia suit has 2 high slots, which seems a little odd for an armor tanking race. I suppose the theory is that the high slots are for damage mods? The MLT Damage mods comprise a fair chunk of the fitting issues on the suit as well though. At 30 CPU 5 PG, they have the same power draw as an enhanced mod, and take a third of the base PG on the suit. In my aforementioned post, I provide potential stats for a "MLT Assault Scrambler Rifle", with the idea being that we could create a militia model capable of fitting on the current suit. This has the benefit of giving a starting character another "assault" type rifle which is user-friendly in a way the semi-auto rifle is not. The stats are scaled percentage-wise in the same way that most of the weapons in the game are. That said, there are other solutions. The Amarr suits recently revealed as the new Sentinel, Commando, Scout, and such have experienced a shift towards more defined armor-tanking. In the process, they also made the slot numbers even between the races. In that framework, you could create an Amarr MLT suit that is more suited to Armor tanking and has equal slots to its compatriots. I'd recommend a split similar to the Caldari, like 1H, 2L. With that sort of layout, you could drop a damage mod for an armor plate and an armor repairer. The combined PG cost for the MLT armor plate 15cpu 2 pg and MLT armor repper 25cpu 2pg = 40cpu 4pg (iirc), which is actually slighty cheaper PG-wise than a single MLT damage mod. Much better. That +1 PG savings won't do much for allowing fitting for a rifle with higher PG-reqs than a STD Scrambler though. Fitting shield modules on an Amarr suit would also be silly. I think it'll be odd going forward if the Amarr medium frames are alone among the Amarr frames for not having equal slots or the shift towards armor tanking seen in the other suits. Dren and Templar equipment stats, wrong since release.
The Eristic Sad Panda Solutions 191	Posted - 2014.02.15 08:03:00 - [23] - Quote Talking about slight different things. Suits classes (as in Light/Medium/Heavy) are one thing, and every race needs an option for each with racially appropriate stats. However, weapons/equipment (and the "themed" fittings to be built with them) are another. Caldari are essentially long range fighters, so the RR and SR and (well, pre-nerf) Swarms make sense. A Cal Shotty wouldn't really jive with their philosophy (though I guess... dumbfire swarms!). We don't know what the third Amarr weapon will be, but I wouldn't bet on it being a shotty, either. What I guess we really need to know is if the weapons are going stop at Racial Rifle, Racial Specialist, Racial AV, or if those are even the way CCP is approaching weapon development. If we look at them: Cal: RR SR SL Gal: AR SG PlC Min: CR MD Precision Rifle (.50 cal with armor piercing rounds?) Amarr: ScR LR ??? It would appear we could categorize them in the aforementioned trifurcate manner, but who knows, things get murky. Like, is the laser a suppressive weapon or their version of a sniper? The PlC is described as being designed for "confined space combat", but a dev mentioned it as being an AV weapon in a post here (works best in those confined spaces rather than AV, ime). If the PR is the Min instance of the Sniper class, then do they have AV coming? Alternatively, none of these classifications or ideas could be the reality. CCP might be thinking every race gets three weapons plain and simple with regard for "class", or maybe they'll just give us more and more new weapons over time whenever they cook up something they like.

Remove MLT injectors and replace with MLT rep tool. Add a MLT scanner to frontline versions. 4 different versions of frontline,each equipped with a different rifle (assault,burst,tac,breach) to allow experimentation with them. For heavies...uhh...i'll let someone who plays a heavy tell you good load outs. Same for light... Only users lose drugs. Time wounds all heels.
Rogue Saint Science For Death 782	Posted - 2014.02.15 10:11:00 - [26] - Quote The whole NPE needs to be rethought as many of us know. I would prefer if the NPE was way more structured: Player chooses race. Player chooses suit class. Player gets ONE MLT suit appropriate to that class with its fittings locked (i.e. you can't override the slots) The skill tree is cut right back to the skills needed for the class Player grinds the Academy until he/she gets certain levels in the reduced skill tree (guided of course) Player graduates from Academy once certain skills are at the correct levels On graduation the MLT is removed and replaced with X number of fitted "real" suits These new suits are not locked so modules etc. can be changed. The entire skill tree is then unlocked. This process will produce better focused players, who have a reasonable amount of SP and understanding of all the maps/modes. My 2 cents worth.

Sole Fenychs Sinq Laison Gendarmes Gallente Federation 201	Posted - 2014.02.15 11:34:00 - [28] - Quote Didn't we already get this thread once from a bluetag? And didn't people just use that thread to ***** and moan instead of making suggestions? My suggestions don't quite follow the OP post, but I feel that we need more than just those placebo variants. (Edit: Seems like the rules have changed to include my suggestions) Also, the ideas here are based on a perfect world where militia shield extenders are actually worth it and the PLC and swarmers can do actual damage. The Medics should be two-slot Logis with injector + racial equipment. Having only two slots makes them militia material. AV fits should reflect each race. Minmatar gets a light suit with REs, kin cats and only (one) sidearm(s). Amarr gets a heavy with an FG. Caldari gets a medium with swarmer and AV grenades. Gallente gets a medium with PLC and flux grenades, though that might be kind of shield-heavy. There might also be a "specialist" fit for each faction. Shotgun for Gallente, Mass driver for Minmatar, Laser Rifle for Amarr and I don't know what for Caldari. The scout class gets cloak + sensible racial equipment. My idea here is a class that works in isolation, by supporting the team from afar. The most common situation will be hacking and defending far-out objectives with few enemies. For example, Caldari gets a nanohive and has the fitting balanced towards self-sufficiency to make that ammo bonus worthwhile. This means rail rifle and a scan range enhancer, to allow them to maximize their range advantage. Shield extender and a single armor repper because otherwise armor damage would cripple them over time. Minmatar with a rep tool wouldn't make much sense. They'd get REs and possibly a flaylock as sidearm. CR obviously as main. Focused on hit and run with kin cats and maybe even a cardiac regulator. Mix of shield extenders, reactive/ferroscale plates and shield recharge modules. The increased delay on shield recharge doesn't matter on hit and run classes and is more of a disadvantage for frontline fighters that regenerate behind cover. Gallente have the scanner, which is gives their existence away. Their weapons would be racial (Either AR or shotgun) and their modules should be along the lines of repair/reactive plates, as well as a profile dampener. Staying low on radar profile but creating the scan message allows them to freak people out and their racial equipment makes it easy for them to ambush due to the CQC focus. Amarr would be semi-frontline fits. Drop uplink is their racial equipment and means that they should be able to protect the position until reinforcements arrive. Scrambler Rifle, Scrambler Pistol, shield and armor modules. I don't know enough to write much on Amarr.
