I don't think you know what I thought you think I did.

After reading 1 too many of these sorta threads I decided to make a version for dust. In specific I'm gonna do RP or story related things that need to be in the game to make it feel like the eve universe.

 

6 Tattoos

http://www.eveonline.com/background/potw/default.asp?cid=mar04

For most of the characters already playing eve they have the option of some sort of face decoration which often means tattoos. For the minmatars it even holds culteral significance http://www.eveonline.com/races/rayofmatar/?pp=background,stories. Tattoo's should definetely be one of the options we have for decorations in DUST.

 

5 Slaves

Weather we get to play as slaves, use slaves shoot slaves or just run around a slave facility they are a part of eve culture and should be represented.

 

4 Drugs

While these only play a small part in the ship part of eve they have a hell of a lot more potential for a flesh and blood soldier. If your body is just gonna be cloned soon anyway why say no to a the stim packs?

 

3 wild life

http://www.eveonline.com/background/potw/default.asp?cid=may03, http://www.eveonline.com/background/potw/default.asp?cid=jan04

We finally get to go down to a planet. These things are supposed to be filled with life unlike the empty space we are used to so we should finally start to see some more of these. Honestly though slaver hounds and fedo's sound like a good start and could even be worked into gameplay (is that a head poking out or a fedo?).

 

2 MTAC

Eve's personal version of the mech. They're written about farely often and they have great potential to be used in the game. There's plenty of eve technology that's been mentioned in different backstories but of all those imo this one is the most general and could add the most to the game

 

1 Kumakh

That thing is just asking to be swung at someones face. They talked about a trophy room being in the game which is all good for showing off, but wouldn't it be fun if you can pick up one of those trophies and take it out onto the battlefield and beat someone to death with it?

 

 

Feel free to post your own list, or change mine or flame or troll or whatever gets you off.

Revenge is a dish best served with mayonnaise and those little cheesy things on sticks.

#3 and 2 you can tell are there just from watching the short teaser that's already been released. As for the rest? Maybe if you believe hard enough, in yourself and in the magical forces of love and happiness, CCP will realize they certainly need #6, 5, 4, and 1 and will definitely implement them.

You have to think how these things would fit into a FPS, too, not just into EVE's universe.

You should read "Old Mans War" by John Scalzi. "Hidden Empire" is a nice space opera as well.
