omg i hope its the gallente assult suit.

Looks kind of too bulky though. I'd bet AUR on it being the command suit given the context of the video.

Video wont load >< I will be able to ID th suit if I got a look at it.

Anyone caught sight of the plasma cannon? It blew up the tank on the road.

im thinking gallente assault suit

and the scrambler rifle looks cool too

I agree, looks like a gallente assault - armor tanked though so could be amar?

Amarrian art design calls for far different asthetics. its not amarrian, you'd have better luck calling it jovian.

Gallente prefer armor but aren't too bad at shield tanking too. I'm guessing armor rep bonus.

They still playing the same maps as we do. Would love to see glimse of new playing ground. But rather than that it was a great movie.

A video appears on IGN about dust and the merc walks around in a new dropsuit and uses the scrambler rifle.

What do you guys think?

Either that dropsuit is heavily underpowered against the Caldari assault dropsuit, or it has no modules for tanking.
I mean really, 250 armor and 150 shields?
My Militia does better than that.
And unlike the devs that have all the skills, I don't even have max shield control and whatever the name of the armor bonus.

Did anyone notice the Eve side kills were listed by frame size?



I was under the impression these were more likely to be pre-fits like the raider, etc.



The enemy dropsuits were militia according to the Eve side kill feed so it may have been a militia only test match. If not then yeah, that suit had better have some way of compensating for its awful stats.

Plasma Cannon

Is it possible the suit is one of the reward suits going out tomorrow? If it was a brand new race suit I would have thought CCP would have put out a devblog first instead of just randomly putting it into a video. Either way I am pumped!

Nice the eve side was actully in game footage congratz to CCP :P

In eve we have tech 1 and tech 2 sort of things

Tech 1 - Generalist
Tech 2 - Specialists

So instead of a suit that can do just about anything, you now have a suit that is far more niche in its role. Right now Amarr heavy suits for example quite able to roam around and do things from killing AV to killing infantry. A specialist suit could be like a mobile pillbox. while not all that fast you're not killing him anytime soon. Or there could be one that is more focused on the use of heavy weapons, maybe have higher reserve amount of ammo and more damage and mobility. it wont be able to tank like the other one but it can certainly kill more.

By that logic we'll get the Scrambler Rifle tomorrow too.

Interesting. A scrambler rifle that do either semi-auto or charge up.

Um no, the type 2 suits are getting removed. There will be 4 types of each suit. 4 scouts 4 heavies.

The type 2 shield tanked heavy for instance will be instead the caldari heavy with a new model

Can't even watch the vid. Stupid IGN site says my browser doesn't support whatever video system they use. Anyone got another link that might work?

Good job ccp, well shown off, well informed, well coordinated as usual!

That suit might be the reward suit we get for fighting in the event.

Did anyone else get excited by the charge mode of the scrambler rifle? Damn that looked cool.

Looks like the Gallente assault dropsuit, if you go by the logic that Gallente are the attackers on Caldari Prime. They drop down from a Gallente MCC. It looks extremely classy and badass, but it doesn't have the usual backpack everyone has. Still I love Caldari design, can't wait till the default assault dropsuit gets unique and we Caldari wear it with honor, not just because it's a starter fit.

Well, the Gallente scout doesn't have it.
Gallente put an emphasis on clean look and making the body features stand out.
Yay for lore!

It does have it, very tiny though. Pretty much explains why low CPU/PG equipload.

My observations in the trailer:
-plasma cannon on the killfeed at the beginning of the vid (blows up a tank)
-scrambler rifle has 2 firemodes, charge up with increased damage or fully auto with overheat function
-2 districts on 1 loaded map (plateu and the orbital canon map you can see that at 0:57)
- new "hacking arm module"
- new dropsuit (probably gallante)
- the kills from the OB where in a green colour (probs the colour of the eve pilot)
- orbital canon map after titan crashed (this map variation was not in the rotation which is stupid)

Actually, the Gallente Scout suit does have a backpack. It's just really small due to the limited CPU/PG and it conforms to the body.

Wow so this seems like CCP is going to be adding a lot more before the "final" ship version of the game is released. That's awesome!

One you missed, you can see the shield bubble equipment next the tank right before the Orbital Strike hits.

Can we be 100% sure that isn't a nanohive with better graphics/different effects.

I assume you mean this object?

I don't want to rain on your parade but the recent devblog made it sound like we shouldn't expect that mod for the next build.

It is a nanohive. Look at the radar, you can see it there.

New ground textures/shaders, no? (at 1.33)

I like the fact it's armor tank over shields, fits the lore and it would be interesting how can that suit can have high HP while moving fast and equip damage mods on the high slots at the same time. My LR will have a hard time killing these types of suits...

You have to imagine that anything they have spoken about with any real type of discription has at least a working model built in their DEV platform.

It is a nanohive. Look at the radar, you can see it there.

With just a description and no concrete details, art assets or discussion from the devs about how the beta testers would like to see it work? I don't think I do have to believe they have a working prototype of such a module. Keep in mind the number of elements they say they have planned for the future. By this logic they have semi-working versions of all that stuff.

I think they've got more than enough work to do implementing things we first saw a year a ago (drones for example) to be more than one build ahead on comparatively recent ideas.

I could be wrong, maybe that module is easier to program and is somewhere in the work the devs are doing now but to see it in a test of next build sufficiently advanced to be hooked up to the live event (assuming that wasn't all smoke and mirrors) seems far fetched to me.

Also:



Definitely a nanohive.

Yeah, that would negate what I said. Still, I tend to think that they have more in rough testing than what they would ever release to us. It takes a long time to fine tune things for release.

New suit looks like it belongs to Jake Dunn. i would say its Gallente Assault though, the styling is very Gallente. Cant wait for the new build. i have a lot of iskies and aurum burning a hole in my dropsuits pockets.

I would love to see an AUR A-Series BPO i would happily pay 40-50k AUR for one since it'll last me my whole DUST life and i'd like to see the closed beta AUR suits because the bone white assault suit was rather foxy

I don't think you are necessarily wrong about how far ahead they may be in some areas, I just don't think we can be as certain in speculating about how much work they've done on content they only just mentioned.

I am praying so hard for a full SP refund right now, I want to just focus on one races suits and weapons and ghaaa please SP refund >_<

They have the basic gun game down. .

Scrambler rifle shows 120% damage to shields and 80% to armor. So it's basically a sloppy laser rifle that can close distance.

And so begins the shift toward the armor tanks...

I see grass. Grass! GRASS!!!

Yippie kai yey kitten.

Mother of Earth... Gaia!

WOW. That there folks is Dust 514

Or B-series depending on taste. Assault and logi are more useful as B-series while scout and heavy are very good as A-series. I would definitely buy an assault B-series BPO since I don't care about proto atm since it's so expensive.

all i noticed was a cormorant flying for the gallente, may that pilot be returned to the biomass

I'm just going g to assume you all saw the part with the ob and how he does not need to go to the overview map to use it.

I'd just like to point out 1:13 is Carthum Assault Scrambler Rifle and 2:07 is a Imperial Scrambler Rifle, so maybe different variants have different fire modes, just like ARs.

Scrambler rifle is op Nerf it.

Normally, I would say the suit is a pilot suit, but they obviously did no piloting

Guys it doesn't appear to be alt-fire, if you look carefully it's likely a under mounted attachment
http://postimg.org/image/hikals2a5/
Both Caldari and Gallente rifles have a rail like this on bottom
The Caldari has a foregrip attached (In pictures)
The current Gallente Assault has a grenade launcher like attachment with no function
Also similar this Amaar rifle also shares a rail for it's sight (if your cheap once attachments are implemented, iron sights)

meh that new suit is something i definitely would not use it has less than 200 shields, might be a scout suit who knows..

i just noticed that over the last few months it been 3rd party groups that rekindle my love and hope for this game.

Feb - that interview with nullarbore & praetorian

March - random video from IGN

way to miss a beat there CCP but its ok i still love your game.

ok guys stop the video at 2:04.... what kind of proto is that?

Rewatched it in 720p, and looks like a regular Caladri assault suit, but it's not black for some reason.

sometime between 1.43 and 1.48 : Klystron has killed Silviu with a Gek and the message is fading from feed.

The other killfeed entries fade in about eight seconds, putting time of death at about 1.41 when we know he wasn't on feed.

Unless re-spawn time was changed (OB with no points hacked, therefore devhax) Silviu had to have spawned sometime during the space sequence. Also if death to kill feed notice fadeout is eight seconds more time passed in the ground battle than during the space sequence and was edited out.

It was a scout suit obviously.

Yeah but there's time missing from that sequence.

1.32 : Klystron kills Silviu with a GEK.
1.36 : Zevulun kills Kaioku with a Freedom Mass Driver.

1.43 : Wipe to Space.

1.48 : Cut back.

That's the Gallente Assault.

First Pilot suit is Gallente but they're small framed (similar to how LAVs are light vehicles would be the better analogy)

The firs Crusader (NOT COMMANDER) suit is amarrian.

Commander suits are for controlling the MCC.

Do you have a source that confirms the Pilot is a small frame?

Do you have a source that confirms the suit in the video isn't a Pilot suit?

It clearly looks Gallente, and it clearly looks like a Medium Frame, but that's all we can say with 100% certainty. It's possible it's a Pilot suit, or that it's something else other than an Assault-equivalent. We didn't see evidence that it's anything other than a presumed-Gallente Medium Frame suit in that video.

If you have more information and it's definitive, please share? Thanks.

NOTE: I'm not saying you're wrong, just hoping you'll share your sources)

Oh another video about the cake. Let's start rumors like crazy and forget that we will never hear anything official about this.

Just saying.

Whatever...
we don't want you to eat the cake anyway.

As for who has what suit..
Sever Data dump says Pilot suit was Gallente and Amarrian has the crusader.
This brings the total classes per weight size to 2 a piece, Scout and Pilot Lights, Assault and Logistics Medium, Crusader and Heavy, Heavy. However frame sizes I do expect not to remain even. In the further future medium and small frames are likely to be dominate in number.

That's the Gallente Assault.

First Pilot suit is Gallente but they're small framed (similar to how LAVs are light vehicles would be the better analogy)

The firs Crusader (NOT COMMANDER) suit is amarrian.

Commander suits are for controlling the MCC.

But if it was changed, it would make the jobs more balanced as it would require you to risk your self to be in the open to use it.
