I cannot agree with this. I pointed out why in the last thread this came up in. Which was about six hours ago.
I also cannot agree even that a pilot suit should exist.
Essentially you'd be doubling the sink an effective vehicle, because unless something drastic happened, like as in you can't drive a vehicle aside from LAVs without a pilot suit, the only reason for a suit like this would be to amplify a vehicle's effectiveness by adding modules to the suit. Which is more SP sink.
Essentially, by asking for a pilot suit, you're implying that you want under no circumstances that vehicles should be viable without one.
Which is some crazy elitist BS.
PRO AV has to be balanced around STD tanks, which cannot have sinks of tens of millions of SP to be effective and capable of surviving, and any variant vehicles must make significant sacrifices in the name of their chosen effectiveness.
i.e. Enforcers for larger DPS, lesser mobility and poor tank, Marauders for larger tank, lesser DPS and poor mobility and say Black Ops (which is a silly name IMO) for larger mobility, lesser tank and poor DPS.
There should be no way to have an objectively better vehicle than the next scrub simply by spending more money on a better hull. Sacrifices in the name of turrets I can deal with (try to fit a Particle Madrugar - it's a right royal pain) but something that's a Madrugar +two lows and double the fitting, in the way of dropsuits?
That's a good way to keep tanks out of the hands of anyone but the people who already have buckets of SP, and ISK to practice.

So can explain what infantry should use to beat proto hulls when proto AV is just able to beat std hulls? I just curious on your balance opinion towards this topic.
In all honesty CCP should finally realize that they need to get rid of tiers in the current way these tiers are either not worth the effort but balanced or horribly balanced against lower tiers.... |

SP sink got doubled by CCP with the whole changing of the vehicle tree anyways even tho we have less skills and mods but more sp sinks
Also a pilot suit to use any vehicle apart from a LAV would be fine
PRO AV cannot be balanced with STD tanks because right now it is and they are crying, we have tiercide now and they are crying about having to use proto AV against STD vehicles
If we get adv/proto hulls then we can balance proto AV with it

My guess is, it'll make it so that you can only use certain weapons and/or modules if you have a pilot suit. Similar to how you can only use a forge gun or an hmg with a heavy suit. |

That's a good way to keep tanks out of the hands of anyone but the people who already have buckets of SP, and ISK to practice. As I had mentioned before, if ISK is such a problem, then just make the proto hull cheap! Like no more than 400k ISK. ISK should not win battles; this I agree with. But there's a problem when dedication is barely rewarded. Do you think that all these 0 SP "tankers" deserve such powerful vehicles that cost 75k and are much better than a proto dropsuit? No! With 0 SP, they should be just as squishy as a militia dropsuit compared to a max skilled proto suit.
Also, I'm on the fence about pilot suits so I have no opinion on them.
But as far as AV vs vehicle balance goes, you can't balance tiers versus no tiers. Either both sides need to be tiered or neither side gets tiers. AV gets a 50% damage increase from standard to proto, while tanks are currently as if they were proto tanks, all of them (militia tanks being ADV with PRO modules). So now you have the problem where only proto AV has a chance at killing tanks while anything that's not proto is useless.
I don't see CCP performing tiericide on infantry, so AV is stuck with tiered progression while vehicles are at a default proto status. I can see these current attributes as proto tanks, and with a small buff to AV, proto AV can kill proto tanks. Then you got ADV AV that can kill ADV tanks, and so on.
TL;DR you can't achieve balance when one side is tiered and the other isn't. This effectively means that one side (AV) needs to invest SP to get 50% more damage while the other (tanks) don't need any SP to become effective slaughtering machines.

They did tiericide tanks... and you know what you got? Tank spam... cause its proto power at a MLT price.
I no longer believe tiericide is the way to go, it pretty much invalidates any use for isk... a major point to this game. |

The pilot suit will balance out tanks by allowing you to RE them with impunity. It's a nerf to the brokenness of having a counter to your counter inside of your vehicle.
Edit: ZDub 303 is completely right. Tiericide is just a buzzword. We don't need to remove tiers. We need to rethink them. Keep the tiers, but make their roles more defined. Less "slightly better" and more "harder to handle, but a harder hit". |

To add:
Turret rotation, reload speed, torque, we could add scan profile and scan precision to tanks as additional stats.
Shield recharge rate, delay, and the minimum damage before shields stop recharging.
As another person said, it would make a lot of sense to have anything outside of LAVs require a pilot suit to pilot as well. As a balance factor, you couldnt just use a heavy suit in a tank and hop out and gun things down. |

Everything that both you, and Zdub, mention would be better accomplished with a more defined Skill Tree. If the Vehicle/Turret Skill Tree matched the Dropsuit/Weapon Skill Trees, Vehicle user would have their bonuses and Militia HAV's could be made much weaker. The other, more racially aligned, bonuses that vehicle users want could be accomplished by attaching them the T2 hulls; like the Enforcers and Marauders. |

They most likely wouldn't be released until we have all of the racial vehicles added in as well. However the introduction of a pilot suit would almost guarantee a vehicle module nerf across the board, similar to how they did things with the Logistics class.
Though I wouldn't put introduce them in the first place. There's no need for them.
