In their lore; they originated from France.

In EVE our purpose is clear. We are ruthless close range fighters who you will never see coming. We are tactical and versatile, and we are powerful.

In Dust what are we? Who are we? We are none of the above and we are nothing beyond. A failed copy of our old Caldari brethrens we are weak, we are slow, and we stick out like a sore thumb. Our stealth technology belongs to the Caldari, our armor belongs to everybody, our close range power belongs to the Matari.

You people aren't anything like what you describe.

They are prissy little bitches who can barely spell let alone pronounce the word "Freedom" that they tout like it absolves them of the all the murdering, censoring, and political bullshitting they pass through to oppress the people.

yes i hear you, and every time i see a minmatar ship armor tanking, ill think of you as i cry my tears of rage.

These self style champions of liberty will destroy our meritocratic ideals, handing your way of life over to there democratic masters. You sell us alligonkey and you call it freedom, for too long we have allowed these destroyers of the peaceful and stable State to fester and grow like a cancer, for too long have our beliefs, our homes and our own children fallen victim to their radical destructive ways. I stand before you and i say no more, for today we stand , today we fight, today we show these blights upon humanity what they have feared in their dark hearts all along. THE CALDARI STATE WILL NEVER STOP, THE CALDARI STATE WILL NEVER SURRENDER. WE WILL FIGHT AND DIE UNTIL EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS WIPED FROM THE FACE OF NEW EDAN FOREVER. FOR TODAY UNTIL THE LAST DAY THE CALDARI STATE WILL FIGHT AND WE WILL WIN!!!! LOYALTY ON TO DEATH!!!!!

Is there any recent event in EVE history you know about that wasn't at the fault of terrorist or are you just another wannabe role player using CAPS LOCK.

Now to be a bit serious in this thread.


In EVE The Gallente balance armor with speed, focusing on active tanking to defend themselves. (poorly translated to DUST)

For Offensive measures we use Hybrid weapons, in DUST case, we use blasters devastating DPS close range weapons. (outperformed by most rifles and the two other 'Plasma' weapons are horrible.)

Another type of offensive measure we use are Drones....which aren't even in the game yet or anytime soon. Give us Sentry guns at least...something CCP (Not converted to DUST at all)

For Electronic warfare Gallente Specialize primarily on sensor dampening. In EVE sensor dampeners are in the Mid slots so they don't interfere with their tanking ability but in DUST these modules do interfere with tanking ability. (poorly translated to DUST)

Gallente however arguably have some of the best sensory ability in the game competitive with the Caldari.
The Active scanner as an equipment slot might be just the thing that does that. Our suits are passively stealth while the active module [equipment] allows us to see. (I guess that's alright if profile dampeners didn't screw with tanking)

For the more offensive Electronic Warfare Tactic Gallente use Warp prevention measures. That's blocking your ability to warp away to safety or run away quickly using a Micro Warp Drive. (Not Converted to DUST at all)

So there we have it. Out of the 6 things that I think make a Gallente a Gallente only 1 of them is present and it's offset by another closely related trait.


tl;dr In DUST 514 Gallente is the most poorly represented Race in the game, that and Amarr.

actually minmatar are the most poorly represented in dust. why?

they have the worst regen vs Ehp ratio, no speed advantage (.3m/s extra movement speed is nothing), all their weapons have massive fall off. all their weapons are garbage except for CR and SMG (because they were all nerfed). They have virtually no hit&run capabilities.

so, minmatar are basically in the same boat as galente.

The Gallente scout is the only suit that comes close.

Why all Gal suits don't have enhanced scanning skills is beyond me.
