Well I'm all for my name popping up in big bold letters when someone dies. However not sure what what info they will get about my suit.

Besides the visual upgrades, various interface options have also been revamped and streamlined, including character creation, skill training (node-based to show people what to expect), and a pop-up upon death that gives you info on your killer. |

I am completely against sharing suit info on death/kill. Everyones just going to end up copying each other like in Call of Doody. |

I doubt it, you can already mostly see what people are wearing through visuals, the kill report marquee, and if you can get their HP to show. It would just be a little more convenient. This is what happens in Eve, and there are enough variations on everything that nobody is really copying all that much, but more you learn to think in terms of counters.
If you are always falling to GEKs and ~20-30m then maybe you should have a tactical AR/armor fit. |

lol Do people actually think their suit is unique? No matter how special you think your fit is, someone else out there is running the same thing. The best of the best and most optimized fittings will always always get figured out and shared among the community anyway. I see no issue here.
Even when i used to play CoD never have I seen someone's loadout and copied it. I don't think anyone really cares. It's just a nice little tid bit to have. |

What I hope this means: The standard info about your death from the kill feed is highlighted so you can better identify who killed you and how.
What this probably means: The dead guy is told the specific weapon used to kill them, as well as their killer's exact suit type, but not the entire loadout. Hopefully the game will also identify the efficiency rating of the killing blow (which tells you if it was a low-charged or point-blank Laser finish, or a Scrambler headshot)
What I'm worried this might mean: When killed, a player can get a full breakdown of the killer's fitting, possibly including the skills required to make the fitting work. |

Already posted this, but it sounds good. Also, SoTa, everyone can basically see what you're using anyways with the Tacnet system. |

The best of the best and most optimized fittings will always always get figured out and shared among the community anyway. I see no issue here. Issue is the future - right now we're all thinking a like but soon there'll be enough variety in gear to change that. Variety won't matter if everyone jumps to the same suit that keeps killing them then showing itself off. |

I think the best thing they could add would be
Merc A shot you 99% Merc B shot you 1% and got all the credit for your death with a milita rifle. |
