I want to start using vehicles but I don't want to start investing skill points into the races that I don't like to find that the others are actually planned still :)
Tank variants and actually ADV hulls were taken away for "reworking." We haven't heard a peep about them since then.
We're certainly not going to get two new racial tanks when they're working on Legion. Pilots aren't allowed options, that's why so much was removed with the release of 1.7.
I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that I didn't call for a tank nerf before Uprising 1.7. - Atiim

I can't wait to switch over to legion if it gets the green light but I also would rather just use the Drop ships we have now instead of waiting for something that isn't going to arrive :)
But they're not on the road map. We haven't heard anything about them, which means they've been forgotten about. Not accidentally, on purpose.

I think it makes a lot of business sense to release the missing racial vehicles turrets and heavy weapons in DUST. CCP will need to produce the assets for Legion anyways, so the amount of effort to downscale them for the PS3 is pretty reasonable given the massive upside of having things balanced right out of the gate for Legion. That will translate into better launch reviews which would equal many millions of dollars over time. They're not ready yet, but I'm expecting a 1.10 with these at some point.
What's made for PS3 won't transfer over to PC. PC and PS4 are much more alike, which was by design by Sony.
They're literally building a new game from the ground up with Legion.
We're not getting marauders, enforcers or the other racial hulls. They're working on Legion. That's where their development time is going. Do they even have a tentative date for 1.9?

Actually, those "options" were removed because Pilots demanded an AV nerf and a vehicle buff, while most AVers refused to engage in balance discussions beyond the "get good" insults. Though it should be noted that the vast (over 95%) of the Pilots openly advocated and "looked forward" to the changes to vehicles which were brought in 1.7, including you & Takahiro. Let's not change history.
So CCP removed options because we wanted AV nerfed? That doesn't make any sense.
