Just wondering as to the status of MTAC production. I know there have been alot of changes in the roadmap for DUST, and i would like to know if their still being worked on right now, or if they've been backlogged in favor of more pressing issues. Any feed back would be much appreciated because im really looking foward to these beauties, and am trying to plan my SP expenditure for the next few months. TY in advance and best luck to you all. |

MTAC
Mining MTAC
The MTAC, or Mechanized Torso-Actuated Chassis, is a bipedal, robot-like exo suit. They are very common and come in many specialized varieties, designed for tasks such as mining, heavy lifting, and combat. The ground-based armed forces of the four Empires all contain combat-MTAC divisions, some of which are even space-worthy.
Tibus Heth spent time as a simple labor-MTAC opperator before his political ascension.
Rhykevance
The Rhykevance-class MTAC was a type of military-grade MTAC used by Caldari ground forces. It possessed shoulder-mounted machine guns as well as anti-armor and anti-tank weaponry. Many of these participated in the recent retaking of Caldari Prime.
The devs need to feed us more info |

Thankyou for the info on their history, and while it not unappreciated, im more concerned with the production status so we can hopefully get 'very rough' estimate on when we might see them ingame, or a devblog about them :p |

The same thing was said about heavy suits but we still have no resistances although it is clearly stated otherwise. |

If you guys care about MTACs so much, you should all be advocates for vehicle AV balance or these things are going to die to a couple of Lai Dais lobbed by an assault. |

MTACs? Its been 7 months since chromosome started and they still haven't put in a 3rd HAV/LAV model.
MTACs are easily 18 months out, maybe more. |

Pretty sure it was on the back burner, and then taken off and tossed in the freezer after 1.0 dropped. |

if CCP was working on them, as with anything, you won't know till a week before it's released, after it's code locked in stone and likely riddled with design issues.
That being said, I'll be on in a few hours to derp around. Only lost 10 million to RDV's yesterday with dropships so I've got a little bit left before I go broke / quit trying to play at this RDV dodgeball game CCP is dreamed up. |

They probably will never come out. And if they do, they'll come out pre-nerfed really bad, because all assaults will say that one ADV AV grenade should be enough to destroy it. |

I recall someone from CCP stating not to expect any more news on MTACs until next fan fest. And on that note, hopefully next fan fest will be done without massive changes to the road plan a week or so later. |

I can't see MTACs working out very well.
They would be light vehicles with slow speed and therefore sitting ducks for the SL.
There is no way they would be as fast as a LAV, so they would have to tank as much as a HAV or even a LLAV to even have half a chance.
Picture a heavy suit that can run as fast as a Scout that you can lock with AV. |

Lulz, that should be amusing. That said the titanfall forums should be amusing to watch after release, I bet that there will be a load of unwarranted qq about those mechs. |

I imagine they would have to be pretty mobile, there aren't any rules anywhere that say mechs have to be slow. |

That was a player post.
All they said at FanFest is "we're not ready to show them yet". That's what CCP Jian said.
Of course, he's not there anymore, so...not sure if that might have any bearing. |
