Also, the name itself implies that there are better "factory-made" power armors available later in the game. I haven't heard anything to give credence to that implication. If the RPA were the way it is with the ability to either upgade it or trade up, then I could see why it exists. As-is, I just hit the gym until I can carry "Power Armor" weapons without it.
The Akkadi Armored Depthsuit, described as 'stripped-down military power armor' also has -10 Evasion. It's one of the reasons the Janeria fight is as difficult as it is. Two of the three classes really don't want to be wearing it, but it's required to get into the Generator room.

Granted 'stripped-down' gives some wiggle room for the future, but I think some degree of Evasion penalty is inevitable to distinguish it from other types of armor. Personally, I'd prefer Power Armor keep it's own penalty but negate the penalties of Power Armor weapons, at least. Maybe other equipment as well. What's the point, otherwise?

As it stands, you just get up to 40 Physique or take Bigger Guns if you're a Mercenary to get the main benefit without any of the penalty. Feruze's Tranquilizer is likely (partially) meant to negate the 40 Physique strategy, but I don't see that kind of countermeasure being common.

Also, see above for just how ridiculously you could stack -Evasion if you wanted. (I was editing while you were posting.)

On a completely different subject: Why can't the Jumper Spacesuit be used for Spacewalks on Zeng Shi?

Is anyone else bothered by the fact that Power Armor has an Evasion penalty, as do the weapons that are meant to be used with it? You take 3% more damage for each point of Evasion below 0, so you're looking at 30% more damage from Ramshackle Power Armor alone, without some mitigation.
I'd actually think it would be worth it if PA gave you MASSIVE bonuses to shield and shield defense instead of regular defense

That would likely make it best used by Tech Specialists, and PA seems intended to be used by Mercenaries.

Tech Specialists are already tanky enough (even without Shield Booster) so there's a decent chance they'd just use a different armor anyway.

Of all the power armor available so far, none of them have been beneficial for any of my mercs, ranged and melee alike.

As you said, power armor just tacks on too many penalties and not enough benefits to be worth it. Players don't need more protection, they need more offense. It's why I've been reduced to pairing the Signet of Bravery with whatever cybernetic gives a bonus to your primary damage stat for a max stat of 65.

I believe the message pops up if you try use the airlock mentions that even though your suit is airtight, it lacks the thrusters, stabilizers and magboots that would allow you to properly walk on the station's exterior. (gameplay reason? square up to the moth if you wanna go to space)

So much this. PA's musculature should be able to negate the weight penalty of any weapon systems it could carry/mount. I can see the armor itself being slow due to its bulk (depending on the design, of course), but systems like weapons and shield generators shouldn't slow it down even more.

Rules-wise, the Pirate Spacesuit (Incomplete Spacesuit + Spacesuit Helmet) has the "Pressurized" and "Airtight" flags while the Jumper Spacesuit only has the latter.

Fluff-wise, I'd say anything with only the "Airtight" flag would only be used for emergency depressurization while "Pressurized" is obviously for longer EVA. Now, should anything be called a "Spacesuit" be pressurized? I think so. Long-term or short is up for debate and really not important for the game's few EVA scenes, probably.

That's the post-hoc justification for forcing you to encounter Overseer Maike, yes (you can bluff her if you're wearing the Slave Jumpsuit and get the Helmet anyway somehow). However, during Fall of the Phoenix when you board, you're described as having a spacesuit with magnetic boots (which really ought to be standard on spacesuits).

Moreover, you get the Jumper Spacesuit after defeating the Shock Hopper, which requires you to have gotten past the Elevator one way or another. And it's on Zheng Shi. Why would a spacesuit designed to be worn by one of the Pirates running the station (the top gang no less) be unsuitable for spacewalking at the station?

More stuff with Vava Groom, petite (and non busty) characters as well as more male crewmembers :)
I'd like to see cute and feminine male crewmembers. Correct me if I'm wrong, but all the current male crew are almost totally masculine. Different races but pretty similar in build, as far as what I've seen.

Kase is very feminine. So that's half of the male crew (not counting Bess/Ben).

Dane will bring that statistic down further once implemented as a crew member.

It isn't that femboys aren't a popular choice though, female characters in general are just what writers want to work with more often.

I'd say that whatever's between "femboy" (Kase) and "hunky man of manliness" (Eitan) is needed, but I admit I am biased since I dislike both frames :p

Then again, I'm screwed when it comes to crew members, tastes wise - I am not into females, I dislike robots, felines, canines, goo-like characters, too tall or too small characters, large assets, quadruped frames and bovine attributes, Yammi does not catch my fancy and I refuse to buy Sera or bimboify the pexiga for my main Steele.
If I could, I'd transform Pippa and Mitzi to suit my tastes, but that'd derail them.

You're wrong. I would never describe Kase as "totally masculine".

Kally's [Seduce Her] option should be available to those with the [Alpha Scent] perk. It could even use the same text as the Brute version.

Seeing that I am both nosy and curious, how would you transform them?

Pippa and Mitzi tap into things I somewhat like: one's a pig and the other one is a hypersexed pal that was functionally brain drained. First and foremost, I'd give them ManUp to make them males, give them male genitals (although I have a feel that Mitzi would be happy with Red Rocket!) and shrink their breast sizes. I'd then have them use the Dong Designer as I'm not into pig and gabilani's penises. Probably, I'd also give them Anusoft and Bumpy Road. Semen's Friend, Pink Eggs, EasyFit Cream, ReductPro, Circumscriber/Turtleneck and EasyFit Cream would be fine for finetuning, but I aknowledge that would be a code nightmare. As for what I'd do to each character...
  • Find a way to change or remove Pippa's food fixation. I am so sick and tired of seeing pigs tied to food. Perhaps, this could be changed by tampering with the Mindwash Visor, or by strengthening Pippa's ties to Yammi - how about cooking food instead of eating it? Or, perhaps, find ways to create new oils with food components? How about twisting it with the help of Semen's Friend or even Slutshroom/Spunkshroom?
  • Realistically speaking, I'd love to rehabilitate Mitzi. But, from a kinky point of view, I'd just like to make Mitzi taller (bring on Lemon Loftcake!) and a male herm whilst keeping the mindset and drug consumption. The cuntnosis scenes are an interesting touch, so I'd like to keep them. Plus I'd like to see all those Soak scenes affecting a male. For Throbb ones, we already have Penny's.

Okay, I know not long ago Nova got an expansion, but I'd like more options to change her appearance when you're wearing it.
I read the document i know that not everything was implemented and I have seen that there are options in question for customization that were not implemented.

What I mean is that instead of giving her more options, what I'd like is the option for Nova to be able to copy the look of the last armor Steele was wearing.
For example, let's say you're wearing the Insulated Coat and ask Nova if she can copy the look of it, so you can wear her.

Oh weird idea what about a Space Specter TF with some unique perks for Halloween coming up next month!!!
TBH, I'd like to see a whole planet that kinda takes a "spooky" vibe with aliens inspired by classic horror monsters. Maybe that's where Aurora's species could come from.

Although actual ghosts are canon in TiTS, so we could also go the Shouldra route...

or some new naleen since they got 0 named characters.
doesn't even need to be a new one, just let us take the one female who falls for us since she's apparently the only female we manage to run into outside of the orgy pit. hell, at least give us a "Good End" game over where we take her up on her offer to become her mate.

Actually, she does have a name (Vaelyaniss, pronounced Veil - YAN - iss), it's just never mentioned anywhere in-game. I only found out about it from the code.

It would be pretty neat to pick up a zil, naleen, or vanae crew member from Mhen'ga someday. Uplift a primitive jungle native and show them the universe. Kinda like what happened to that one space pirate Korgone. Especially if there's scenes on return visits to Mhen'ga that really highlight how they might have been changed by their travels with Steele. In perspective and potentially also via experimentation with body modding.

They could start off on the crew as basically just a simple deckhand and potential fuckbuddy/toy. But Steele could perhaps have options to invest in their education and have them develop skillets more useful to the crew.

I would love to buy Able off Shep Darnock's plantation and/or capture Kane and whip him into submission because there is a severe lack of Zil on my ship , that or some new naleen since they got 0 named characters.
Technically there's one Naleen character who we do know the name of without save editing, it's just that he, Tarik, only appears in a spinoff game made by Savin. That being The Silence.
