Dust 514 Dev Diary: A Dropsuit for Any Occasion

The latest Dust 514 Dev Diary showcases a dropsuit fit for any occasion

CCP has posted a new video Dev Diary on the Dust 514 site giving us some more information on drop suits and fittings in the upcoming MMO shooter. Game designer Gavin Frankle explains some of the different dropsuits currently available and the wide array of customization available through fittings.

The video showcases three different categories of dropsuits, available in small, medium, and large frame sizes. But don't let that fool you into thinking your options are limited. It's the ability to upgrade and customize your drop suit with a variety of weapons, devices and gadgets that allow the player the flexibility to adapt to the situation and step into whatever role their teammates need most. As you can see in the screenshot below, CCP is dedicated to giving you tons of options and ensuring that each player can have a unique flavor to their dropsuit.

While the video shows us only the four dropsuits currently in the game, Gavin Frankle promises there are more to come.

"...we're hard at work expanding that list, so that each race has one of each frame size that plays to their strengths and weakness."

If we've piqued your curiosity and you want to know more, or if you just want to see CCP's CmdrWang introducing the video using a super cool holographic interface, then check out the full video below.

so is this dropsuit deal the developers way to try and stand out from the crowd a bit? I'm not really a 1st person shooter fan - to me they are all the same, and i suck at each and every one of them - but i for one am glad to hear that somebody is trying something new beyond different guns and vehicles...
