I like this design- simple, practical, economical.

This reminds me of the film AVATAR ans the third Matrix movie. ? type of guns used. Also I hope there is some cover for the operator otherwise I AM NOT riding it.

Interesting concept, particularly the leg mechanisms. In my point of view I would've opted for a bit more armor around the arm mechanisms and a head protection unit, but methinks it'll detract from the agility of the frame. Looks a lot more feasible than the Power Loader you based it on.

I always like this sort of design better. The sense of realism, where controls are concerned, is there.

Seeing this sorta reminded me of this: [link]

What do you think of that?

thanks :)

the design has some little faults due to where it's supposed to be in relation to the progression of technology, if that makes sense =P
essentially, it's something that comes before the development of a "true" powered suit. think of it as a P51 in relation to an F22.

there's also minimal armor for a couple of reasons, it's compensated by a (force)field generator & it's easier to get in & out of the suit.

from a technical standpoint, it's more like this [link]
though the Japanese HAL suit is much nicer to look at. :)

I like constructs like these. Not really oriented in who designs who but stuff like these namely the suit in district 9, aliens , bubblegum crisis, appleseed, etc... they really knock my brains out.
They seem feasible IRL after all. The only thing I don't really see feasible as of this date is the power source and mobility.

the technology already exists [link]
the only limiting factor has always been power.
mobility/agility is not a problem.

I wonder how these suits will do in close quarter combat...It'd be really nice to see these babies do some muai thai, kung-fu and stuff.

Makes me wonder if that suit in the video is similar to japan's bionic suit. But I guess japan's was intended for domestic use. As the video you showed seems to be multi-purpose.

Kinda like a mix between a Powerloader from Aliens and a Motoslave from BGC.
