Combine Reputation Armors under the Tailor option "Exo-Armor"

I love the options afforded to players to customize suits of armor. However, we should be able to mix and mathc the parts. Also, I think that they should all be put under the uniform category of "Exo-Armor". Doing this would streamline the drop-down tab in the tailor, and also give us the ability to mix and match the different parts.

    Is it bad that when I saw this, I immediately thought of the Combine from Half-Life 2?

    Also, this is a great idea, I would love to be able to do this.

    I think the main stumbling block for this would be compatability. None of the rep armor costumes were designed with mixing with other rep armors in mind, so it would probably be clip city.

    I'm content with that. Goodness knows, there is an obnoxious amount of clipping as it is already, I see that as being a minor hindrance.

    Asking for less tailor restrictions is like asking CBS for the rights of Star Trek.
    In short, it will never happen - even though we all want it :\

    Pointless. If they were willing to let us combine things freely, they should remove the category restrictions completely.

    I'm going to have to agree with the earlier post. Considering just how bad the tailor already is with bugs and clipping, and just some poor quality in general, they really need to take down the barriers. Although, I like the idea of an "exo-armor" slot, i really think there should be an EV slot as well, where you equip the ev suit you want for function, but can use the existing armors/suits parts to craft your own, or even just be able to use your rep suits like an EV suit. The Maco suit looks fully designed for such, yet it doesn't currently work for that.

    The alien gen alone, should have no restrictions to it, just because it would allow for a much greater range of possibilities. To make matters worse, it's all there any way, all that we've been asking for is already in the engine, they just won't unlock it for us.
