Oh my god, 6 scouts chucking knives at tanks for av.

This would be hilarious.

I would love it and I believe it would **** off tankers to high heaven to see a kill feed the showed a nova knife killed it.......and ADS gunners along with LAV drivers will scream that they got killed by a knife throw

I can picture a squad of scouts jumping all over a tank and stabbing it up.

Like a group of velociraptor dinosaurs.

I like it a lot.

*kisses knives*

I'd prefer fw to limit players to the chosen factions gear regardless of balance, it'd give those of us who really appreciate the lore a place to go. Not player chosen race but who they are fighting for as that really would be crap as I regret picking gallente.

It wouldnt appeal to others but they are just there for lp anyway, they don't actually appreciate the lore. Its mostly just a farm so people can stomp pubs in a cheaper manner or for farming items for PC.

No I don't mean over arcing bonuses.

Each suit should have a singular shared role bonus, then a singular secondary racial bonus that influence "how that role is carried out".

Beyond that it doesn't stifle any freedom. I-Shayz-I is still free to put a Freedom Mass Driver on his Amarr Commando and go 57/1 I am still free to put X weapon on Y suit and use it to 100% of that suit and weapons normal capacity, however if I use the corresponding weapon on the corresponding suit I get modifiers.

I just want to pop in and say that all RP does not and should not revolve only around the four big empires when there's a myriad of smaller factions with their own independent agendas. I've been in the Intaki Liberation Front for a year now, with it's own goals completely separated from the empires and I love it.

You have to keep in mind that most capsuleers and dusters are freelancers and mercenaries still with no real loyalty to the empires they originated from. It is a perfectly valid lore reason to be running faction warfare only for the rewards it provides, or being "just there for lp". Restricting gear like this would only stifle FW in general. I should also point out that the whole Empyrean War conflict is not really an actual war but rather a way to stop the already tense relations between the empires escalate to a full size war, but that's a whole other topic.

On top of that in New Eden, CCP has endorsed that everything is RP. Those large conflicts in nullsec happening between huge coalitions of alliances is canon just as much as the lowly miner shooting rocks in highsec for ISK or a duster completing a public contract. While that merc running FW just to get LP to buy neat gear may not be actively trying to do RP, what he is doing is still RP. That's what I did throughout my entire dust career and it was perfectly valid from a lore point of view, which I was actively trying to do.

My point is that simply focusing on FW as a medium to encourage RP would just be a disservice to all the various other groups inhabiting New Eden who do not participate in FW. The pirate corporations, mercenary cells, cults, non-profit organizations, criminal syndicates, player corporations and many others all dot the universe with their rich history and relations between one another, and definitely worth exploring in an RP environment. If we want to encourage RP and embrace the lore, we should highlight the rich and varied people and groups of New Eden, not just the big four.

This is roleplay where players basically inherit their characters personality or how they see fit and just have a good time and act like the factions personality, like in intergalactic summit

I rarely break character on these forums.

Yeah I know, thanks I guess.

I'd just like to actually see some of that actual factional warfare that we see in the videos.

This may sound like a stupid request but I think it would be a great idea to introduce a server where you can roleplay with other people, it would be the same except only people from the same faction are allowed to play with eachother, like if youre and amarr you can only be on the amarr side, whule the gallente would play on the gallente faction. It would bring some more life in the game and make it even more exciting
