DUST Search - Sticky:[Feedback] Thematic Standard Fits

CCP Rattati wrote:

Can we please get your opinion on racially themed fits based on standard quality, please don't read too much into it, we are just trying to get the themes and fittings "right". It also goes a little into earmarking modules as racial preferences, as it relates to possible efficacy changes in future Hotfixes.

We also don't want every fit to be the same, so trying to get a blend of all the basic modules without sacrificing quality, these are meant to be competitive. But they are also meant to teach the "philosophy" at a glance and increase awareness of proper racial fitting, as well as mentality (speed tank, and damage profiles matching the grenades etc)

In many cases though, they would be veterans and therefore retain some of their respective army's philosophies and doctrines So you don't want racially thematic fits..... you just said Mercenary...... who are beyond racial alignments....... you are either talking state militaries as the ground forces, which were suggested, of each empire would use, or loyalists like those in PIE Inc who comprise paramilitaries would use.... in which case we would use the same stuff. Its more like Linux vs Winblows vs Crapple One is raised to love one or the other and tries to stay true to it even when they move out of mom and dads house and are able to choose for themselves. They still have what they were raised to use and believe in but find sometime tech from the other family just does certain jobs better (unless you use Linux then you are already a pirate merc making your tech work your way) Yarr!!! But a compact hive could be a very valid equipment for all those fits. Seeing as they are merc fits and not military fits,mercs use what works not necessarily what goes with the suit.
