im curious how much ISK the advanced/proto tank variants will actually cost. Its definately going to cost more then we have now. I think price progression will look like this:
-STD= 97.500 ISK (same as before) -ADV= 350/500K ISK -PRO= 1 million ISK
Would that price progression be too steep or justified? Cause how im looking at it the new shield tanks will be monstrositys and extremely hard to take down with a experienced driver.

300-400K for ADV Tanks. 1.3-1.5M for PRO Tanks.

That would follow the same progression as Dropsuits, at least, and sounds pretty reasonable...
I'd be more inclined to theorise a cool
97,500 Militia 200,000 Standard 787,000 Advanced 1,227,000 Prototype
I don't particularly see those values as unreasonable.

The PRO tanks should cost more than 12x the Militia ones, and the ADV ones shouldn't be so spendy.
There needs to be a bigger reason to not use PRO all the time. If it were me, PRO HAVs would cost 3-4M, and PRO Dropsuits would be bumped to the same progression(100-130K)

I would say make the current overall cost float somewhere around the Advanced to Proto range. I mean you kind of have to take a look at what you'll be fitting to each tiered tank. Overall current tanks are mostly Proto modules, so by no means should *standard* tanks fit with mostly standard modules, cost as much as the current "proto" tanks.

The Proto's could cost well over 2 million ISK, and I'd still be willing to by them, so long as they have a far superior ability to survive!

They don't. You'll be fitting the same modules onto them that you are now. So unless you want to pay a lot for more a little bit of an improvement, you're not going to like a 2 million ISK base hull. I suggest you take a look at the fitting options available, the new tanks are on protofits (though slightly different from the final Echo numbers)

I wouldn't pay that much for a tank for a long time. Especially considering the fact that tanks are weak sauce. It's like proto suits getting lit up by militia shotguns but isk price X20.
Edit: back in the day I'l happy pay up to 2.5 mil for my sagaris during chromosome but AV is so ridiculous that I wont now. Turrets are ridiculous now too.

I can somewhat agree but the above look like very fair prices in the current climate. In previous climates 1.5 million ISK+ was absolutely worth the investment.

HAVs can't be expensive yet expendable, are we ditching the "expendable" concept that CCP "introduced" with Wolfman's massive vehicle changes a while back, and designing the new HAVs to be tough nuts to crack?

That's a difficult topic to tackle because it requires an almost perfect balance between vehicles having durability so they can function properly on field and at the same time having them vulnerable enough that they can be relatively easily destroyed. The issues then becomes what does expendable mean in terms of vehicles.
Currently most ADS and Tanks already are between 3-6 times more expensive than the suit that is likely to destroy them and frankly who wants to run a unit that costs a **** tonne, consumes the same amount of SP as an infantry role, especially when infantry can currently almost do everything better and have access to the most if not all of the map.
Personally I'd rather see anti infantry roles from vehicles put into lighter Medium Hulls like MAV [IFV] and Fighters......but god knows we are unlike to get those any time soon.

10-20X more expensive than the lihad vehicles that kill them too.
