Sounds like you're trying to be "innovative" by putting player progression on rails. I'd advise against that but seems you're already well aware that players here think that this is a bad idea.
The great thing about Dust and EVE is that players make their own goals. I set my own progression path. It's one of the few things that kept me playing Dust despite all the other problems with the game. Without that, you'll be losing one of the greatest and most unique aspects of the game: Letting us choose how we play in the sandbox.
But it's early. I'll wait and see what you've come up with when you're ready to show it. Maybe it's something I can get used to but I'd much rather have the ability set my own goals and progression path in Legion like I did in Dust.

If you don't know, pick up a copy of PS2 and try it.
If it is like PS2, then I recommend rethinking the idea. PS2's progression tree is horrible, makes the game incredibly boring, and will ultimately kill it.
If it is not like PS2's progression, please explain how it is different. From what I understand, it's a bit like PS2 in that there's unlocks based on role. What Legion does differently is that once you unlock something, you can use it in any fit you want.
Yeah at least that's still in the plans.
My plan has always been to skill into all the suits anyway. So I might be able to put up with this system forcing me into suits I don't want at the time to get some equipment that I do want that I can then fit to whatever suit I want. That's still a step up from all the other FPS games out there but it's a step down from the freedom of choice we had in Dust.

Whoa... WHAT?!
Somehow I missed this. For the love of all things awesome do not get rid of the commando. That was one of the best things in any of the updates.

Whoa... WHAT?! Somehow I missed this. For the love of all things awesome do not get rid of the commando. That was one of the best things in any of the updates. according to them the commando has no place yet in their design, this doesn't mean we will never get one, just that as of this moment in time they believe it to not have a place in legion.
I read elsewhere on the forums that the plan is for assault suits to carry 2 light weapons. Not sure how I feel about that idea yet.

So after 36 pages of requested feedback of people basically saying, "No. This is bad," and a bunch of detailed posts on how it could be done better, he's still just gonna do whatever he was already planning to do.
Glad to know the feedback has been so helpful.
