do the suits contain pod goo?
I'm not sure I want body armor rubbing my delicate nether regions without a proper buffer of lubrication.

concept art looks quite good. Now imagine it in 720p without proper anti aliasing and low texture quality.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Cant work out if you are an elongated neck or a really hairy knee. Big smile

Regarding your statement however, at least Minmatar ducttape armour will give them a nice rash when its ripped off fast. Lol

You don't rip it off, you just shoot yourself in the head, stock clones are cheap

I like what I've read so far, especially the bit on the great degree of customisation to the suits, and also the vehicles, as mentioned in the earlier blog.

But I hope Dust sticks to the true "down and dirty" aspect of warfare in Eve, down to the very personal one-to-one desparate struggles in the narrow corridors of the ground facilities. For example, I want to be able to knock hand weapons out of my opponent's hands, use my ammo-empty rifle as a cudgel, or even pick up nearby objects (including the fallen bodies of my comrades) to throw at him.

Make it personal, visceral, bloody, "look him in the cracked visor", and we will get the Dust we deserve.

To arms!

More like a pod with slots.

The vehicles are more akin to our ships featuring high mids and low slots and having stuff similar to our ships such as a larger range of electronic warfare such as a stasis field generator. \

I wonder if there is going to be a drop suit specially tailored to be a vehcile operator or pilot in the game and possible command variants. Who knows.

Dust 514's CPM 1 Iron Wolf Saber Eve mail me about Dust 514 issues.

Funny, with all those fancy lasers and railguns, we know that the most effective weapons gonna be the homemade minmatarr .50 piperifle and duct taped 9mm tech9.

What nova Fox said, my thoughts too.
Thanks for the link Marlakh!!
I have a PS3, but would love to see this on a PC platform as well.
