What does it matter what racial suit you pick when logis are the same across the board? It's that diversity that entices.
Especially since they said they wanted a dynamic battlefield. More and more CCP is changing that. Lets keep the variety and differences between the racial suits in game.
The first statement , I really didn't mind ... the changes because of their nature , they were able to fit more and the fact that you really didn't see the " SLAYER " logistics until prototype really didn't bother me too much and actually should have happened . You didn't see many advanced slayers because the suit wouldn't allow it . That suit at advanced now would be nice but I digress . I did miss for me being a Caldari logistics at the time , was the bonus to shield efficacy and the HP regen . I know it was just one HP but that one saved me many of times . Ask a Gal what any self-regen means and you will find out . It's something that's kind of needed now . To me if you want to give racial bonuses then it should be for what's obvious and that's Caldari = shields , Gal = self rep , Amarr = armor tank , Min = speed / stamina or damage out put if you choose but either or .
I say Gal rep because that's unique and no one else can claim that but Amarr can tank like a Gal so to me Amarr = tank .
The second one , look ... there is no diversity because of the racial bonuses that are in place . You see the majority of logistics as Min for the reps and Amar for the links and really .. only a few really used that suit for anti-vehicle but that changed soon after like the use of PM's . I don't like the fact that I have to invest in two or three if I want my racial suit ... different races to perform my role of anti-vehicle , being a medic and dropping uplinks seeing the bonus is what increases performance .
There will be no dynamic battlefield when you have racial bonuses that forces you to use items instead of highlighting that races strong suit and what they are known for .
I have to play a Gal Assault because I perform better with the Plasma Rifle than I do while using RR's and I'm Caldari . If this is the route that this game is going and that's where you basically can tell what someone is running just by looking at their HP's and weapons because everything is the same and it just becomes predictable like how vehicles are now , then those who play the game for variety will go else where .
What would appeal to them after that ?
You would think that CCP would have given the infantry refund that should have been in 1.8.
