Lots of neat usage data available at Dust.thang.dk in case you guys haven't yet been. Stumbled across some older dropsuit usage data; merged it with current dropsuit usage data to get a feel for longer run trends. Not the best splice job ever, but interesting nonetheless: Dropsuit Usage Rates (Aug 2014 - Present)
So what do you guys expect we'll see following HF FoxFour? |

Surprised more scout usage than commando and sentinel. I doubt they change much, people will just swap out their RR on their gal-ass for an AR, maybe?

Makes sense as mercs would choose the most versatile suit for multiple roles (pre bandwidth). Which would be the scout.
No surprise its the assault nowadays.
Am surprised by the similarities between logi commando and scout. Makes me wonder if it is representative of multi role players or dedicated type users. Also makes sense why heavies use two logies as the outnumber them by what looks like that ratio.
To the op I would assume that slayers and newberries will continue to use assault suits as they are; with a drop in scouts in favor of assault.
The reason why is conjecture, of course. But relies upon my assumption that scouts and assaults are utilized primarily for efficient slaying. If the ROF bonus is truely as incredible as some crunchers are expressing. The ability to get in close (scout) combined with low ehp should push more to assault as the high ehp and cq bonused gallente suits lower the efficiency with which the scouts score easy kills.

As stated above newbros will skew the results since it's the suit they're likely to spec into first (given the lower SP requirements and familiarity with medium suits)
The introduction of bandwidth also had less obvious effects, whereas people may have run sentinels/scouts whilst piloting now it's logi suits so they can still place links
The question is do we expect and want assault suits to be the most prolific?

On both counts, I think yes. But by what degree? |

I think we have all seen matches with 5 logies on 2 heavies (meat grinder for instance.) On the other hand we have matches where we see kill after kill (no links or hives to speak of) and an objective which is always being hacked. Where point defense is missing or unsupported.
Squad comp depends upon the opposition and the location.
More importantly: Do the trendlines themselves represent high SP players filling more than one role or does it represent a sort of average composition one would see on the battlefield?

I think assaults is almost the default, most people play FPS to shoot, so they would naturally play the suit that does that best. I am fine with this.

Just to clarify, it only shows sales-number, excluding Aurum and FW sales - This means Blueprint, Aurum and FW numbers aren't being counted, and could(!) skew the relations, even if I doubt this is the case. |

There is something flawed on the CCP side, where sometimes (temporary) the data is empty or flawed, and bad data is inserted into my database - due to this July 1st, 15th, and the period of July 30th through August 26th is partially missing.
CCP Is, to the best of my knowledge, aware of this, and there is nothing I can do when it occurs.
If it is an issue, let me know, and I can try to delete data and re-import...

First update done.
Slight uptick in player (market) activity[1], still at all-time lowest overall, significant increase in per-item cost.
1: From a cursory glance, this is also matched by EVE Offline's graphs |

They never really did have a solid role in Dust, and unless they can find a real niche for them, I bet they just remove them.

No they did, and they fulfilled it. Their role was a slow tanky damage platform.

Small fixes to the commando like giving them better EWAR compared to their heavier cousins would have been nice.

So the same as a Sentienel without being able to carry and HMG or Forge, or being able to tank as much, or even tank as much as some Assaults?

And also faster, with more melee damage, and better ewar than sentinels, while being able to carry two light weapons and a nanohive.
