I'd stop playing FW and I've already been doing this for 2+ years now.
2 Primary Weapons 1 Secondary Weapon No Heavy Weapons No Grenades No Vehicles
....... Min/Amarr FW would be boring.

Maybe? wouldn't be so bad if we had racial parity on all weapon archetypes...but imagine if you will...having no direct AV options for half of the factions...one faction has no grenades...only one faction has a sniper rifle...half the factions have no access to indirect fire...only two factions have access to heavy weapons
Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

Banning dropsuit combos is the last thing you want do in a game that's all about customization.
Having said that, there is a lot that can be done to encourage loyalist behaviour

such as? i see the downsides but most of them are just highlighting unbalanced assets. it would be nice to have the feeling that ur team has come together for a reason, that we have something in common. even if only its only a uniform...
hmm wat about that? when u deploy for a faction u wear their colours/uniform/skins maybe i shouldn't sugest **** like this, it will likely get priority over fixing real balance problems...

I guess I would still fight, but only for Minmatar....
Sorry Caldari, but I suck with a Forge Gun.
I guess Amarr and Gallente Sentinels would be completely out of luck.

Even with total racial parity in all things being suddenly, magically implemented, FW would go stale real quick. Everyone would know what the other side is bringing to the table in every match, so every match would start to play out more or less the same. Diversity is what makes this game special.

dont listen to anyone that says they would stop no one would stop everything would remain just about the same
its the only source of LP and any player that wants LP will continue to play it
also stomps would still happen and syncs would still be made, vets and syncs would still have their advantages and win just as much as they do now
changing gear only means passive bonuses make more of an impact

Presuming this limit was not applied to heavies (due to their incomplete weapons options) and that other fittings options such as equipment and hight/low slot mods were still open use, yes I would.

I don't understand why people would even want something like this.
I think they could have done something like this if the game would have started off with factions being a bigger deal, but I think it's wayyyy past that now. You'd just **** people off.
I think FW and the lore of the factions should be the focus if there is a port, but I don't think you should be stuck in a faction or with its gear. |

I think that should be its own game mode to be honest but only if / when there is the full racial line up.

Mix and matching weapons and dropsuits is one thing. But what I don't understand is how Gallente turrets fit on Caldari tanks.
It's not like you could just slap a Russian tank turret on an American tank, and they're at least made on the same planet.

I do that anyway. I only use doctrine setups. Hybrid weapons ( except for the bolt pistol, I have to much self respect to use it), Gallente vehicles and drop suits, primarily tank with a focus on speed and regeneration, etc.

Well more to the point since the Gallente invented Railgun based technology and saw it adopted by the Caldari I think we can safely say that they have a relatively good understanding of how to apply railgun based weaponry on the battlefield.
Additionally all races use or have developed missile technologies throughout their racial histories, while the Gallente use missile least often favouring drones instead they still can make use of them.

It may or may not be what he meant but I feel like what he is saying is that none of the races even have a good enough selection in weapons to consider this.
If that is the case then I think he makes the most logical point to exactly why this would not work. If not then I suppose I just made that point.

To be fair, the two factions with light weapon AV, caldari and gallente, are the only factions that also have vehicles, so you wouldnt need to worry about AV in min/amar matches.
I would still play FW if the restrictions were in place, but it would be boring.
only gallente could use the assault rifle, shotgun, plasma cannon, ion pistol, active scanners, madruger, incubus
only caldari could use rail rifle, sniper rifle, swarm launcher, forge gun, magsec, bolt pistol, nova knifes, nano injectors, nanohives, gunlogi, python
only minmitar could use combat rifle, mass driver, hmg, smg, flaylock, repair tool
only amarr could use scrambler rifle, laser rifle, scrambler pistol, drop uplinks
so a lot of choices for gallente and caldari, but less choices for min and amarr, perhaps unlocking equipment along with modules. this would atleast allow variety of supply on the field, and maybe allowing all sides to use all vehicles. |
