  I think you kind of answered your own question bro.
  Wait... I kind of want them. So that tanks would suck if you weren't skilled into them.

          Personally, I would figure they'd be for air vehicles only.
  I mean, if you're going to be driving a vehicle, wouldn't you prefer a suit that let you get out, or at least survive if you have to bail out? I would figure most ground vehicle users would rather have a workable infantry suit than some kind of wet paper bag.

          Considering how the individual Pilot suits would most likely have a bonus to their own corresponding vehicle, CCP is probably going to hold off on releasing them until we have achieved vehicle racial parity.
  Hopefully when they do release a new suit, they do it like EVE Online and release a variant for all of the races.

          I hope they were scrapped entirely. I see no good outcome with Pilot suits. I have typed this many times so I am just going to copy and paste from one of my last times I posted it.
  There are three possibilities:
  1. Vehicles are balanced around having them, meaning that not having them puts you at a detriment. More SP sinks for vehicles = bad. 2. Vehicles are not balanced around having them so they are a flat buff. This makes vehicles even harder to balance or even too powerful. Bad. 3. Pilot Suits give a small benefit that neither makes vehicles too powerful with or weak without. So why would I spend nearly 3 million SP for something that doesn't help that much? Bad.
  So it needs to do something that doesn't make them too powerful with, too weak without, but is something that is still worth taking. That is a very limited Venn Diagram.

  That's stupid, LAVs are pointless now so Pilots would only use HAV and Dropships. Why would they want to get out of anything but a LAV?

  Backburner?    I'm sure they are hanging out with the amarr and minmatar vehicles as well as the laser and plasma heavy weapons
 Thanks CCP for making the HMG Heavy viable again :3 
That's no excuse to slack off on releasing a heavy laser though =.=

  Didn't you do a similar thread the other day? We should have them and when they add them they should reduce all vehilce modules by 30% and then give the pilot suit a racial bonus to modules of 5% per level. I think something like that would make the pilot suit good for HAVs and the game.
  Yeah, I could get a HAV and run around doing crap but it wouldn't be the same as doing in a pilots suit and if the suit was out of the HAV it would virtually useless and being a prototype suite it would add a layer of expensiveness to piloting. I wouldn't object to modules that made certain stats better on a vehicle while wearing the suit.
