The simple answer to this, at least for me, is that MTACs require vastly more resources to iterate and add to game than pilot suits. Light frames already have art assets, the various vehicles in which a pilot suit could be used to apply its effects already exist in game and most of the stats that such a suit could modify already have code in place for the application of modifiers.
It is even possible (though admittedly somewhat unlikely) that a pilot suit could be accomplished with ah 'heavy hotfix' rather than a full on patch where as something like the MTAC would require a patch, likely have to be the central focus of that patch (maybe not sole central focus, but central nonetheless) and would very likely need further hotfix iterations to properly balance it.
I am not going to say that my own reasoning applies to everyone, because individuals should speak for themselves, but from a straight up cost benefit analysis regarding getting new content into the game pilot suits make a lot more sense than the MTAC.

I went ahead and clicked on it and that picture was from some time ago? If that is true then why was the idea pulled? If this is true then it also tells me that they already know how to build a pilot suit. I think it just needs a little bit of modification, to make it more viable and a vehicle as opposed to being viable on the field. I believe that a pilot should be able to defend himself when out of his vehicle but not very well at all. Still lovin the link module idea!!! This is the very reason Rattati needs to stop by and say something.
CCP Rattati reads more than he posts (don't you Rattati?  )
Even that aside this is a worthwhile discussion following some productive trains of thought.
One of the best things about this type of constructive conversation is that as the community hammers out some valuable ideas the can eventually be brought to CCP for review, in the end taking much less total Dev time than if the Devs were trying to be neck deep in every aspect of the conversation going on in this and the other feedback threads.
Making sure that constructive threads like this one aren't apt to slip through the cracks is one area where the CPM provides support to the Devs, in this case that means I will continue to follow this thread and will personally ensure that links and info are provided to CCP Rattati. For the present however there are many Patch 1.9 related things taking a lot of Dev time so keep at it, know that I'm keeping an ear to the ground here, and that this conversation will not fail to be read.
Cheers,
Cross

DARU Prime wrote:Thanks Cross. Sorry for our whining lol.
No worries guys, I totally know what it's like to want more info and input.
That's why I posted my explanation it wasn't a reprimand just a "even if you don't see a blue tag don't think this is being ignored" statement.
