Because each dropsuit type is manufactured by different corporations from different races, they should therefore have varying HUD graphics and coloring for their health meter, stamina meter, ammo meter, and minimap. This would really add a sense of variety which would keep the game from getting stale visually.
Amarr: Crusader (coming SOON) and Heavy dropsuits would have a golden ornate Amarr HUD graphics.
Gallente: Pilot (coming SOON) and Scout dropsuits should have a bluegreen HUD with curvy rounded graphics.
Minmatar: Logistics dropsuit should have orange or red graphics similar to Minmatar tattoos.
Caldari: Assault dropsuit should have something with white or blue angular graphics.
This isn't a big priority right now, but something that would be good for the future. |

Something like Syndicate's HUD might fit Caldari suits.

Perhaps there could be some small minor variations in HUDs of dropsuits from the same race, nothing major, just something to signify that they are made from different manufacturers from that race (unless they are made from the same manufacturer). |

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say, but I am not suggesting your race decides your HUD, I am suggesting your current dropsuit decides your HUD, so you can change your HUD by changing your dropsuit. |

AUR HUDs would be pretty cool as well.
HUD variety keeps things from looking fresh so we don't end up getting tired of looking at the same thing, and eventually contributing to getting tired of Dust. |

Bosse Ansgar wrote:I like the idea, but I have a question concerning the EVE lore involved. Caldari = assult right? Minmatar = Logistics? Does this mean that the Caldari don't have their own logistics suit? And if they do, shouldn't there be a trait or performance difference between the two?
Because the way I see it your normal suits you buy would be from whatever side you are on. They could let us buy gear made by other races at a price to let us take advantage of the best traits on gear all the races have to offer. That would add a LOT of diversity.
In short I think there should be trait differences between each piece of gear, not just an HUD difference in certain dropsuits.
I remember CCP mentioning something about dropsuit symmetry, that is each race having a version of each type of dropsuit. I think it will come later, but might be while after release.
There isn't much info out about it, but I'm certain that racial variants of the same suit type will definitely have different traits. |

Minmatar and Amarr would probably have the most aesthetically pleasing HUDs I think. |

Cooper Eudaemon wrote:I think this is a fantastic idea, holy cow.
Though, instead of having the colors set based on your suit, I think it would be even better if that was something you could customise, and that way have a little consistency across your suits. If the color of enemy/ally dots changed every time you changed builds, that could be pretty jarring.
Ally and enemy colors should stay the same in all suits for what I have in mind. |

There should be BPO mods that you can equip (either a HUD-specific slot or something you can set separate from fitting requirements on your individual suits/vehicles) to change what HUD you're using. Especially while we don't have racial variants of every suit type.
So far, we have 4 different suit types with each of the 4 races represented, and 2 races are getting an extra confirmed model of suit for their style. If I prefer the style of the Caldari tech, but want to run Logi and there's only a Minmatar Logi suit, I should be able to install something SOMEWHERE that lets me keep my clean lines and hide the duct tape.
Slot for purchasable HUD software to change HUDs would be cool. |

The wobbling HUD effect would make all this even better. |

Special alternate non-racial HUDs reflecting NPC corps could be made and sold with AUR. |

Visual variety and immersion are awesome things to have in a game, and this would help. |
