I got it! All our militia gear gets a fancy name and model. It would still be militia in stats and all functions, theyd just look cool!
example:
"Goon" swarm launcher : yellow-jacket color scheme.
"Veteran" Assualt Rifle : very tattered, older-model design (as if from the Gallente-Caldari War)
"Komrade" Heavy Machine Gun : get Valve's permission first! Blink

"Wise" SMG : drum-mag, stock instead of strap. Capiche?
"Anvil" Forge Gun : make it a lefty, just for the hell of it!
"Pop" Sniper Rifle : scope has a pod-shaped lenscap, akin to COD smiley

I like that idea you have there but mostly the idea of the "Veteran" assult rifle got me thinging,

What if we had a choice to make our armor any type of armor that aint already a themed one a veteran verion of the armor which looks like its being through the wars and in general seen alot of strange tactics such as the swarmers, the strafers, the heavy camping, ect it would actualy reposent weve done and have had it done to us so ye dont have to

Mabye if it that a slight reduction to armor to reposent how battered it looks as a trade off for mabye weapon damage bonus or such but it should be balenced not making it more powerful simply making it have a different feel or am i over thinking it

mabye to have it fit to tie in more with the actual back story of the Dust mercs have a variation of a mordu legion emblem on the shoulder

As long as its a cosmetic theme and not an item, battle scars would be pretty cool

It's MUCH cleaner.

But so far no info on anything for Dust 514 beta bonuses. As for Dust beta bonus, I would like the ability to 'paint over' whatever you current armor is with 'mordu's legion' paint job on it, regardless of what type of armor it was. But failing that, I would like to see a medal in the character sheet.

It is enough for me to know that I was in the beta of something really BIG. I do not feel the need to brag about it and 'rub it in everybody's face'. Being in the beta doesn't make me l33t.

I said it in another thread about characters after the beta. Let beta testers start in a NPC corp exclusive for characters started in the beta. only seen if looking at employment history, it's there forever, and it's a nice "I was there" reminder.

I would tell you all of my ulterior motives, but that would only hinder my march to world domination. I joined up as a beta tester to test the beta. I've been giving feedback, suggestions, and a touch of obligatory forum trolling. As an Eve player (and mentioned earlier in this thread), ISK is at the top of everyone's priority list, and reputation sits at a close second. Our paychecks are going to be signed by Goonsw- corporations and alliances, and our reputation will be made there. I'm just asking for the people who actually tested the game to get a bit of extra recognition for making this game a major competitor to other FPS'es. Also, world domination, but you'll hear more about that on national news in... a few months

[Veteran_Kane Brackman] 0	Posted - 2012.06.17 19:23:00 - [104] - Quote Well they could give us a vanity item that fits over our armour but is not an armour in its self. I've noticed that there is a slot in the fitting screen at the very top, I have yet to find a drop suit that allows you to put modules in that slot. Maybe this slot is for shoulder pads and the like. This vanity item would be a BPO of course. Though thinking about it it could just be for implants and such.

Along with a Beta NPC corp to begin the game in, I could see some items for Character creation, so if local has the option for photos you can see someone wearing something from that NPC corp. Could be seen in any social area, depending on if they actually are longer then a few minutes at times. I know if you have the beta client downloaded you got a personal drone in PS Home, but we're talking in game.

[Veteran_Orin Fenris] 0	Posted - 2012.06.19 15:57:00 - [114] - Quote I would be happy with a special tag, or colored name or something. Something purely cosmetic. I would also be tickled to be able to have a custom paint job, or custom "avatar" in my quarters/the war barge. Or even (and this is something I would actually be ecstatic about) a custom "beta" paint job for my guns/drop suits. I see you guys (CCP) already have "custom" paint jobs on your guns (varying by type), so why not just allow us to change that? Honeslty though, I don't think we are entitled to ANYTHING. If we do get anything, it will be purely because CCP is one of the coolest game companies out there, as it is really rare (as far as I know) for beta testers to get anything truly "special" in game.
