I'd say Caldari and Minmatar in terms of idiologies (Caldari State is now under bad leadership though, he ruins the Caldari spirit and should be disposed of) and Caldari, Amarr in terms of technology.
The Caldari people are the State, and the State cares for its people. It's basically social hyper-capitalism, which is kind of a paradox.
The Minmatar are freedom fighters, once enslaved by the Amarr, many still are. They strive to be a fair Republic.
The Amarr are just self-righteous religious zealots who happen to be slavers too.
The Federation is kind of complicated:
Gallente are a democracy, but a corrupt one and a false one. They subjugated all races they encountered. Look at the Caldari-Gallente war: The Caldari wanted to leave the Federation so they bombed the Caldari home world and attacked their colonies, killing billions. This is why the Intaki joined the Caldari in the war as well, they felt oppressed.
So to me the Caldari seem the best choice :)
They use Shields as their main defense, which is far superior to armor in terms of defensive capabilities. They specialize in long-range warfare and jamming technology: if you can't shoot at your enemies, your fire-power doesn't matter :) |

My Gallente starter suits have 3 low slots which means I can stick 2 CPU modules that allow me to put both a proto scambler and proto SMG on it with militia armor rep module, militia locus grenades and militia injector.
The Amarr style of suits and weapons is my favourite look but will probably go for either the gallente light or minmatar assault eventually.
I don't care much for the politics or attitudes of the races themselves - at the end of the day I'm just a mercenary. That said my sympathies do tend to lie with the Minmatar, mostly due to the whole underdog thing really. |

From best to worst:
Caldari.
Because shields are the best right now.
Minmatar.
Speed is much more important than a single bullets worth of eHP.
Amarr.
At least it got balanced amounts of shield and armor, instead of going too much into one category.
Gallente.
Because armor tanking sucks ballz and Gallente are 100% armor tankers.
See what you did CCP?
You made a whole suit around armor and yet you kept armor as bad as ever. |

Well as far as suits go, Gallente you get either CPU/PG reduction in hyrbrid weapons for Assault or CPU/PG reduction in equipment. Both give you more room for modules, meaning better suit. Just my opinion though.
Oh and I like maxing out armor for a number of reason. Protection against flux grenades and laser rifles is one, armor repairs are constant healing no downtime, also nano injectors revive you with 0 shields and a percentage of armor, so I stand back up stronger. Everyone got a speed nerf so the armor plates speed penatly is barely noticeable. Gallente suits are just better. |

That CPU/PG is only if you spend 5.1mil on top of the millions of SP you spend on basic suits.
Flaylock > Flux.
Sure, the flux is a hard counter, but the flaylock can still damage shields, and it does 300+ damage to armor, insta killing almost everything.
And its not in grenade form, as in it can shoot multiple times while the Flux runs out after three uses.
And unlike shields where if you lose them you can have a bit of buffer in the form of armor, if you lose armor you just die.
Lasers are still melting armor.
If you do the math, even with downtime shields still regenerate much, much more quickly.
Even if you have only armor reps shields still have a higher base regeneration.
Speed nerf?
The speed is exactly the same as before, dafuq are you talking about.
Try to balance eHP/repairing.
Shields beat it.
Try to make a eHP suit.
You win the first engagement, but you don't regenerate, hence you die in the next.
And you're so slow it doesn't really matter.
And shields can still get a buffer almost as good as yours, while keeping the 25hp/s regeneration, and only losing like one to two bullets worth of HP compared to armor.
If you try to go regeneration, shields beat you even if you use 4 low slots for complex reps, and they can have a buffer with the better regeneration.
Everything you said is 100% invalid. |

Amarr because everything is done with beauty. Just look at their ships, suits, and buildings - all gleaming in gold or silver.

Gallante, we are a representative democracy. Plus, we care both for conservatives and liberals.
Amarr are slave traders and religious (would have chosen them if they were ONLY religious)
Caldari are efficient but not entertaining :/
Minmatar... Hmm. Underdogs but I still find it hard to stick up for them. |

That isn't quite true. The Gallente prefer to keep power divided so each of their colonies had representation in the gallente govn't where as the Caldari prefer to keep the power in the hands of the few super corporation CEOs. The Caldari got tired of the Gallente giving their colonies rights instead of being under corporate rule so they formed secret colonies run their way. When the Gallente found out there was an awkward standoff but *nobody had really don't anything yet*. That's when Caldari extremists blew up an underwater Gallente city which made the Gallente freak out and put extremists in there government who then decided to bomb Caldari Prime. The Caldari then had to crash a super carrier into Gallente Prime to escape.
To sum it up: The Gallente didn't operate how the Caldari liked so the Caldari tried to split off. Caldari extremists blew up Gallente people so the Gallente blew up Caldari people and the cycle repeats.
PS: The Gallente may not be a perfect democracy but that is more humanity than the system. Besides the Caldari leader wanted to shoot Caldari Prime with a titan's doomsday weapon, sounds like you guy have issues to. |

So to me the Caldari seem the best choice :)
2 things:
1. I chose Minmatar because I like their Ideaologies. They know they are outclassed in straight up firepower so they follow the hit and get the hell out strategy. (which is pretty much my strategy every time I play certain RTS's.
2. For the above statement about the Gallente-Caldari war, did you actually read the history about it in the lore? The Caldari had been cheating the Gallente for years by building colonies outside of Federation space. When the rest of the Federation finally found one of the colonies tensions rose and terrorist acts began happening. The last was a Caldari bomber destroying the dome of an underwater city killing 500,000 people. THEN the war started which ended after the caldari flew a carrier into the city of Huermont, killing another Million.
The Gallente may have bombed some of your cities but they payed the heaviest civilian price. I like the Caldari but they let the loss of a single world (homeworld or not) warp their perspective of an entire civilization and the war that gave them their current place in society. If they want someone to blame for their horrible lives they need to look at the Mega-corps who control everything.
EDIT: Well aside from my point about my opinion on the Caldari Mega-corps Texs Red said most of this. |

Okay so firstly I have to say that Tibus Heth isnt insane....just a little unorthadox.
I personally think the Caldari are the coolest, but the Amarr are my personal favourites because of the beautiful aesthetic on their ships, dropsuit
So for me its
Caldari Amarr for Ideology- Unity is always better than disunity not matter how its achieved.
Aesthetics- Caldari Amarr- from beautiful designs to stark minimalism. |

just look at the minmitar scout. it looks deadly.
i mean really deadly theres this one guy from seriphim kahn or something i dont really remember his name but man he was in one and it looked like a shadow was chasing me with nova knives when i turned around and seen him chasing me i loudly said OH SH!T tried. i tried to kill him but it was too late as his knives tore thru my wanna be logistics assault proto suit.
im surprised you dont die by just looking at the suit.
