This game is already epic. So these suits would be RDVed in and hackable like an LAV or tank? Considering this kind of device sounds more suitable to be used in an asteroid belt than on the ground, what justification could be used to be deploying them in a battle? Also I will assume that they, being heavier than a Heavy suit would be about as slow as well.

Is this a lead up to Dust mercs fighting in asteroid fields vs NPCs and or Eve pilots or is this just a way to bring in another type of tank onto the field to blow up? I'm not against them being on the field of battle just surprised that I hadn't seen the post about them being added to the available vehicles either now or in the future.

If this is a request thread it's in the wrong section.

Who owns the term "mech" then?

Because whichever of the dozen or so franchises that use it regularly is actually the owner, they have a lot of people to sue.

On-topic, though. MTAC will probably be used in-game.

I have this mental image of my logi jumping into an MTAC wielding a giant repair tool screaming at buleberrys that they can no longer out run my healing lightning, they will be repaired weather they like it or not.

How cool would it be to have different variants like they did in the mechwarrior series on pc? The mad cat was one bad ass piece of equipment, they would definately be a countermeasure to tanks. As a tank character I whonder if a lot of the skills I already have will be used or will they have a completely different set.

Let me be the lone voice of sanity here.

If they introduce mechs in this game and they handle anything like all of the other vehicles,then CCP can just keep them.

Sure they could be cool to have,but there's no way in hell I want to see anymore content in this game until they hammer out some of the stuff that's still broken.

Let's not put the horse before the cart people.

yep i agree with you i like the drip feed ccp are doing with new things its a good way to introduce them
but OMG mech warfare would be epic

also just 1 more idea but what about mech 1v1 gladiator matches and betting oppertunitys

I really doubt CCP is going to introduce large-scale mechs. Instead I see the MTACs as basically wearable exoskeletons, your average +6 ft merc would probably be bumped up to something like 8-9 ft tall. I can definitely see alot of possibilities for melee weapons though

Wouldn't they be MAVs?

That being said, more isk to blow up with my tank ;-)

Yes give us megazord, but ima gwan call'm voltrons because that was my generation's equivalent. power ranger suck.
