Players are not constrained enough overall, nor are they forced to play specific roles in dropsuits that were made to do ABSOLUTELY ONLY ONE thing.
Additionally, the community has been complaining about scouts doing damage spam for a long time, and basically being the best at everything.
The damage per second cap will prevent players from doing too much damage if they are in a dropsuit not intended to do that much damage, regardless of which weapon they are using.
For too long, there has been a lot of damage spam, particularly around CRUs and uplinks. In fact, this whole game is rampant with damage spam. People making fittings to specifically damage things, and then changing out to fittings that do EVEN MORE damage. Sometimes players even go to supply depots to change their weapon range, which is clearly unacceptable. This is obviously not aligned with the game design and original intent.
Let's admit it, most of us have damage spammed something at one point or another, and maybe even felt a little guilty about it. I know I did.
So here's the cap that should immediately be recommended and implemented without further ado, foregoing the play testing step, of course.
Damage Per Second Cap
Light Frames 100 dps
Medium Frames 200 dps
Heavy Frames 300 dps
LAVs 150 dps
Dropships 300 dps
Tanks 450 dps
I for one will be glad to see players forced to play the role that their dropsuit was designed for. People can't just freely walk around making whatever fitting they want in order to do more damage. That is just wrong, and it's not how the military operates. Everyone should be forced to do a job for which they trained and have a suit. In fact, I don't even know why we have 30 fittings slots. Everybody should just have ONE fitting slot, so that they won't even think about doing more than one thing.
Perhaps later we can look into putting a cap on the total amount of damage that one soldier can do in a match, but we can always implement that later immediately without play testing as well.

+1 clearly this is a good idea. Keep it classy OP. 
EVE Online is what you get when engineers attempt to create "fun" without consulting someone who comprehends the word.

We also need a challenge mode:
You have to look at someone, press O to issue a challenge and the you can damage them only if they except.
Challenge mode is only 1vs 1 and no strafing allowed.
Must also be using same weapon and drop suit with comparable modules

Your right, we should all use only milita AR and they should remove damage modifiers
Actually we should only be able to use frontline fits, that would solve all our problems.
Your welcome

I also think we should make Dust into a rail shooter, to avoid all that pesky freedom of movement that causes so many issues

Looks like this new proposal is gaining a lot of supporters. Guess it's time to implement.
