Logistics is the "support" dropsuit. It has more module and equipment slots than other dropsuits, as well as the extra PG/CPU to power them, although it isn't relegated to a sidearm only, which would actually be pretty crappy.

A grenade-throwing dropsuit doesn't strike me as a very good idea. If you want to spam explosives, grab a mass driver. They blow right now because they're buggy as all hell, but once they're fixed there wouldn't be much point in a grenade suit.

And I'll also say that the game really isn't about specialization in this sense. The dropsuits are not at all things that pigeon-hole you into a role. You can snipe with a heavy suit effectively under certain circumstances, or run around with an assault rifle in a scout suit and play gunfighter. Really big restrictions like sidearm-only on non-pilot suits, or a suit which exists simply to have two extra grenade slots over an assault suit, are too specific. They'd be good for very few roles. That's a big deviation from how the game works currently.

The dropsuits do pigeon you into a role. Go out with a sniper and your role is to stay away from the hot zone and shoot in. Carry a swarm; you are only good against vehicles. And that is the whole point. Your choice of dropsuit (and fittings) when you spawn sets you into a specific role.

These are weapons, not dropsuits. You can make a sniper logi, or a swarm scout.

The only reason I don't agree is due to the number of specific 'pigeon holed' ships in EVE. Stands to reason the same would apply here.

Your choice of dropsuit (and fittings) when you spawn sets you into a specific role.

We're getting 'tech 2' suits soon such as Titan and Goliath suits which are versions of the heavy as an example but they're geared twoards specific functions such as one is perferrable anti infantry while the other is more anti-vehicular.
