And don't give me that, "it keeps the price down" BS, I can get a Minmatar medium frame that allows me to do a split and with built in synthetic fur (with nano circulation), for the same freakin' price.

Step your game up Caldari!

Productivity. Their guys will get soft and complacent if they aren't constantly uncomfortable and on edge.

Ain't gonna lie, your Amarr suits are comfy, though. Yet I don't see the majority of you guys getting soft. Even your heavy suits are like being in a pool of water, soft and smooth, yet restrictive of quick movement.

You guys did a good job.

Oh? Because last I checked the Amarr assault frame is designed to bond directly, and rather painfully, into a Paladin's spine. That doesn't sound too comfortable to me.

Any maybe you should learn to carry a load fatboy. Not my fault you kakku can't squeeze your fat asses into a jumpsuit. I deploy almost exclusively in Caldari assault suits, and I can operate them like a second skin. Joint servos are always functional, my shields are always purring like neko, and the heads-up-display is second to none. What more could you want from your armor, a cup holder for your Quafe?

Step your game up Caldari! Caldari designs tend to be self-consciously utilitarian. Comfort is not so much a secondary or tertiary concern as a non-issue as long as the user's discomfort does not impact performance. This is partly a reflection of traditional Caldari cultural values (the culture came of age on a snowball flecked with mud, trees, and toxic shrubbery) and partly a rejection of Gallentean cultural values (they tend to get obsessive about making everything ergonomic). To place utility before comfort in your choice of gear is to display a high regard for practicality over ease: a high Caldari cultural value. As such, you could even consider its lack of frills a selling point when marketing to citizens of the State. I'd rather improve efficiency by making the suit easier to use and allowing people to utilize their natural ability to the fullest extent. Also, when your suit is comfortable, not enough that you are in a luxury resort of a suit but enough that you don't have to think about taking it off, you will be far more focused on your mission. Less distractions are always a welcome sight, especially among warriors.

Yeah have you Deadly Aztec ? if you have noticed it I can happily show you other wise personally. None of the assault suits are underperforming. Though, to be honest the only under performing suits are scout suits. Also, most mercs die so fast that they don't live long enough to be uncomfortable.

I'll have you know that I ran 36 miles on Caldari Prime, through a freakin' toxic swamp, in an Amarr Assault suit, through the night. All I can tell you was that I felt like I had only ran 6 miles. Had I attempted to do the same feat in a Caldari Suit, I probably would have started bleeding from my toes. If the Caldari shoes aren't going to have sufficient cushioning, like the cloud floating effect of the Amarr, could they at least have a flexible sole, like the Minmatar? Also, the leggings need to be more flexible, it's like your fighting the pants every time if you try to do anything more than a fast march. Whatever, guess it does not really matter. I just hope one of those Caldari Companies hires a Gallante ergonomic specialist.

I've tried all the suits and while the servos are a bit slower on the Amarrian suit once you get past the whole 'It just drilled into my spine' thing it does really feel like it's just a part of you compared to the other suits. Minmatar suits honestly are the runners up in comfort, I must admit. There isn't much to them but you can move like you wouldn't believe. The Gallente suits are a bit better than the caldari, but I feel like I'm having to fight against it at times. Just goes to show you the usefulness of the of the neural interface, though. In terms of comfort, the Amarr can not deny. This is due to the symbiotic relationship between your body and the suit when it accesses your nervous system through your spine. That said, I prefer the Minmatar medium because it is made of more flexible material. This is particularly important in the hands and feet, because it allows greater sensory input and better muffled noise. This is very important in clandestine work, my work.

Hah. I laughed too loudly at that. As for why the Caldari suits are so uncomfortable, it's likely because they were made by the lowest possible bidder. I mean, all the suits were made by the lowest possible bidder, but given their knack for mercantile matters it wouldn't half-surprise me if they were even cheaper than the others. Though, just as expensive as the other assault suits.

Just thought you should know in case you ask yourself why I am not paying attention to you. You said yourself you are a desk spook, likely because you mental state makes you a liability in the field. Anyone who actually took the time to haul through ANY swamp in an Amarr suit would have quickly found that their shirts impede movement and your heat sinks will explode into a fireball unless you actively cool them every chance you get. Let me indoctrinate you my dear gamin. I will admit that the aforementioned suit was severely damaged externally due to friction between the various sets of sheath. Though, it was very minimal and only grazed the outer most coating. One could easily have said plates recoated. Also, the heat sinks were never in any peril. The swamp I ran through is in a high altitude plane, this coupled by the fact that my trek was through the night, means that I was in an extremely brisk environment. I even had ice forming on the back of my helmet. On the note of my commercialized civil service post, I have since been elevated to the post of Outrider, a glorified sentinel for principal handlers. I shall end this response with a query of philosophical proportions. Do any of us truly exist? If so, do we exist only to ourselves? Are we over watched by something else, someone else; others?

Matari workmanship tends to be utilitarian by necessity. Caldari workmanship tends to be utilitarian by preference. My interpretation has always been that the Caldari have always tried to be the most efficient through the use of the most advanced technology. While the Minmatar have always tried to be the most efficient through the use of the least amount of technology, While maintaining an advanced method of function. I.E the reason that Caldari equipment freely uses microchips in an attempt to improve the device easily. They make the best use of the newest technology. This includes trying to use electronics to circumvent mechanical parts, in every intense that is provided. While the Minmatar refrain from using things like electronics, or even electricity. Minmatar suits and weapons still function even during EMP strikes. The Minmatar even use advanced time gears in priming their explosives. Doing the most, with the least possible.

Am I correct in that regard? Your spine does what!? Doesn't that, you know, kill you? That is not usually the case. As my esteemed Amarrian colleague alluded to, the initial pain simply serves to purify you of your inhibitions, you are then rewarded for your trial by a lusty comfort.
