It's this thing called ideals. Not everyone will agree with their groups way of doing business or it's politics. There will always be dissenters in any faction, ethnicity, culture or nation. The reason most games or almost all games lock you to a side is it is easier to show everything as black and white instead of realistic shades of gray. |

So half of the American army plus Half of england army can choose sides with the Russian Army to fight against the American p army and the half of Russia's Army. Doesn't make any sense right? Well, thats how Dust 514 is.
Individuality. You've heard of right??? It means you make your own choices and decisions with the consequences that follow. Or do you have someone that tells you how and what to think, feel, eat and wear everyday? |

Ok, so theres ONE army wearing Russian,American and England uniforms, fighting against their own Country's thats setup the same way.
You seem to be mistaking this for a normal FPS when the idea behind it is RPG in the character selection area. On those you pick a side and you're stuck with it till the next match. No real thought involved beyond a click and then shoot the other side. You're welcome to play it that way if you wish. I'm just dropping a hint as to that's not how CCP thinks. Sure, some of the FPS may have added RPG leveling like attributes over the years. But, at their core is still the old select a guy and shoot the other side. There is no role playing mechanics involved in them beyond kill person in other uniform, gain points to level that particular class. There is no thought to making that chracter a person because you're using those pixels for 20 minutes tops and then switching. RPGs are different since the general idea behind them has been creating the ideal of another person. |

For example if i was Caldari but wear Gallente suit, i DO NOT get the Assault or Logi bonus, but if i were Gallente and wore Gallente suits i DO get the bonus. This way, race sctually means something while having the option of investing into other racial suits if they want their slot lineup/cpu/pg/base stats. Racial bonuses on dropsuit has nothing to do with your racial DNA, it depends on skills you learn & use. For example - you could born as Caldari (you like caldari type, face) but deep in your soul you may hate entire your race... and love Gallente ideology, life style, technology. You have role play story for your character don't you? 
I do. He's an Amarrian loyalist but does have doubts about some ideals. The use of vitoc, mistreatment of the Reclaimed. He doesn't see the Minmatar as bad. Just misguided and led on the right path. He also doesn't see the Gallente as being evil. Just decadent but could be given sermon to. Since the Amarrian religion has made front roads into the Federation. |
