At least give us a socially oriented patch. A pseudo social patch. A quasi social patch. A give-me-a-tab-just-to-put-my-social-clothes-on-so-I-won't-have-to-shoehorn-my-gimpy-nanobreed-arse-back-into-my-armor-and-weapons patch.
YES!!!
Indeed a hotkey for switching between social gear and armour would be a heaven sent.
few things are more frustrating than completely having to buff up for armour armour a nice quite evening in your dress
Still new to the game since 15th July 2001
Still alive and kicking
first we need the possibility to have social armor equipped at the same time as regular armor. Perhaps the ability to choose the social armor to cover the other type, or just switch between them without having to unequip anything.Originally posted by Laryssa

Yeah! That would be great... But... um... I can see people whining for another GA nerf if this ever happens.Originally posted by Drsnurre

So my vote is: No.

What if you were unable to fight when wearing social clothes? Like when you wear a cloaking device.

Considering that I can blitz ql 250 missions in a thong and tattoos, I'd have to agree. Blitzing definately does not count.Originally posted by Canigou / Mareva

I'm begining to think that Funcom intended Grid Armor to be sort of like those new Yalms; Nice, shiny and something to brag about, yet ultimately a waste of cash and time.
I doubt Funcom would ever institute a change like this. Everyone would wear med-suits and armor or even biomech and a medsuit to weazil out a few more points.

Easy enough. Select the tab you want 'active' at any given point in time. That tab becomes what you wear, and you only get bonuses from that tab (either social or armor tab). The other tab goes inactive; you don't have to re-equip things on that tab, but neither would you be able to benefit from them while in social mode.
This fixes the problem with GA and normal armor being worn together, and the quasi-exploit of a full medsuit and a biomech suit at the same time. However, it would make it easier to put a medsuit in your social tab, implant up w/ ability implants, put on your armor in the armor tab, swap back to social and swap in normal implants.
This, of course, could be easily fixed by making medsuits non-social armor, so they couldn't be put in the social tab.
Gunned down the young. Now old, crotchety, and back.
This is a very good idea, however, when switching tabs, it should take the same amount of time to "switch tabs" as it would if you were to manually remove and add the pieces of armour to the wear view. I'm not talking about the time it takes to buff, etc. I mean the equip time.Originally posted by Kiryat-Dharin

Otherwise (and I'm not singling out Fixers here, just as an example), you could have a GA fixer getting hit by an NT nuke. GA fixer hits a tab key and voila, the NT nuke does 2 dmg to him. (NOTE: This is NOT a discussion about the imbalance of NT Anti-GA nuke). Anyways, I think you get my point, the equip time would still have to be in place.
