I don't mean to complain but I honestly don't understand why. The Gallente probably get the least benefit from them because on addition to having slow armored suits they have regular stamina. Every other race gets more of a benefit; the Minmatar get their naturally fast suits augmented, the Caldari get a boost of speed to their armor mod-less suits and the Amarr make good use of their high stamina.
The Gallente honestly see the least benefit from equipping the mod. I think it makes more sense for us, Gallente, to have the Myofibril Stimulant rather than the Kinetic Catalyzer because we are more CQC oriented and the Minmatar rely more on speed.
From a lore and gameplay view, the Kinetic Catalyzer being Gallente makes no sense.

I know a lot of Gal assaults that only run a plate or two with a kincat, and then stack rep and damage mods.
Get in close fast, hit hard, and rep between fights. Pure Amor tanking is amarrian crap.
True, on my Gallente Assault I run reactives and ferroscale only. The deal is that even with that the Minmatar Assault and Caldari Assault tend to be a lot faster in combat. And since Kinetic Catalyzers only help you when sprinting the Gallente don't really get much of anything from it in combat unless they are a scout with a shotgun.

From a lore and gameplay view, the Kinetic Catalyzer being Gallente makes no sense. Well arguably if you subscribe to EVE doctrines Kin Cats are prop modules and should be in the high slots. Almost all ships in EVE use prop mods to boost their speed and make them harder to hit. Some do this more than others like the Imperial Navy Slicer with moves roughly at 3209m/s and 4500+m/s when over heated making it one of the fastest ships in New Eden. In EVE there rarely is the differentiation of speed between armour and shield. Instead the differences come from your skills, the hull, which kind of prop mod you are using. In Dust I use a Kin Cat on my Amarr Assault to run about 8.0m/s and using an Active Scanner I can kite around other players and pick them off rather easily. Any notions that the Gallente and Minmatar are limited to CQC or are a CQC race is utter bullshit. Min have Arty, have some fast ships, some slow ships, some armour tanked ships, some shield tanked ships. Gallente have Blasters for CQC and Railguns and Drones for Long range combat. They have fast ships, they have slow ships, they have armour tanked ships, hell go out to Null of Gal FW and you'll see shield tanked Ishtar's.
Adamance, I'm talking about Dust not EVE: Online. Dust 514 Gëá EVE.
In EVE the Gallente have long range weapons, in Dust that isn't true. In EVE the Gallente have armor and shield tanks, in Dust it's only armor and Reo tank.
We are talking two completely different games. You are trying to compare Forza to GTA V. Not happening.

In fairness, if you look at the top left, this is EVE: Dust514. Because it is based off EVE: Online, and that's where it gets its lore.
Normally, I think Adamance is a total nerd with an unsettling interest in roleplaying and almighty parental figures, who puts too much value in lore especially in place of gameplay, but you DID mention lore in your OP, so you had this coming.
I don't have anything against RP as long as you aren't.weird about it. It's just that Dust is almost completely different from EVE.

From a lore and gameplay view, the Kinetic Catalyzer being Gallente makes no sense. No caldari have really low stamina. If you run speed on a Caldari suit your gonna need a cardiac reg.
Isn't it the same as Gallente?

No, that should be a totally different module. It should be Caldari.

Kincats are already incredibly useful for Speed Tanking, on suits that are good for Speed Tanking. I'll be the first to say that if I had 12.5Gëê increase on my Amarr Assault then Kincats would be broken as hell.
