Seeing as you've implemented dropsuits based off the game M.A.G. (SVER, RAVEN, VALOR) how about some other games?
I would buy a Helghast BPO/SKIN from Killzone right now. But why stop there? Mass Effect, Metal Gear, Dead Space, even Halo would make awesome SKIN's.
I promise to buy at least 2.

You can't copywrite a color.
I doubt CCP purchased any sort of license from Zipper for the MAG suits. They are more 'obvious nods' to the franchise rather than an officially licensed product.

Talk about more immersion breaker....
Looking at both sides of the coin.
Even Aurum one.

But you can copyright a pattern.
The sever valor and raven skins were an homage to the MAG community. The dropsuit BPOs were the item of sale.
Sale skinning based on other games crosses a line into infringement.
MAG was already dead when CCP made those patterns, probably because the closed beta play of DUST was very similar to MAG at the time.
But I wouldn't expect CCP to take their inspirations flagrantly from extant or active games. It's not the brightest possible move they could make.
WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

I would like to have suit skins that have a Carbon alike look or some dark blue colour. A other nice colour scheme would be white+red. If you have the skin system then just go creative with it. Nobody cares on dust if you stick out of the masses on the battlefield. If you can look like a pimp then do it the proper way.

eh, i did not really buy the MAG skins because of how they looked, i bought them because i loved MAG...
Still think it was really cool of CCP to do that, was a neat idea but i don't think it really need to go any further than MAG. A lot of the early beta players came from MAG. Majority of all the first large Dust corps could be traced to MAG. So it makes sense there, don't think it would to just make it for other games just cuz.
Vote Viktor Hadah for CPM2 or i'll take your districts and hurt you.

On the White wolf side.. I'd be leery of the tzimisce dropsuit theme. Or the Get of Fenris theme.
Not because it's bad. But because the reference would be utterly lost on most. Nevermind the Fenris glyph triggering some idiot internet crusader

I think this post sums up a lot of why the best. It was an homage. It was done tastefully and well as a nod to the players in beta who came from MAG.
Really doesn't need to go any further than that.
