I couldn't help notice in the Trello board that you are going to allow or are considering the option to allow Exosuits your to be used by other players.
While i understand that sometime someone may have a lot of res and can afford a spare exo or will be leaving the server so may want to purchase an exo for another player, i think this is a bad change.
Often when I purchase an exo, I also purchase a welder. This is because I can't always rely on other players to weld me or have a welder. So when I fall back to weld myself, I see a few players approach my exo as if they are trying to take it (something I am guilty of doing myself, even though i know I can't take it (for the time being). Unless I have an option to secure the exo to me by default I see this becoming a nuisance.
I do like the auto eject that was proposed.

Used exo dealerships for b294 confirmed
Also it's about time I get a new video card so I can actually get off the forums again
Outdated, oldfashionned, at the age of keyless cars ??? Come on
Yup, it's time you get a new video card
Ok, I want my Exo with GPS, Blue with a white stripe, chrome exhaust, and it doesn't start if I'm drunk or I don't fasten the safety belt
I want a lowered suspension.
Don't ask how. Just do it.
I need my lift-kit in my Double Bro-Fist Exosuit with some chains hanging off of it.
I've not tried it recently but have in the past (long time ago) and couldn't take it. Maybe it's currently optional / server based.
If it is possible to take an exo, then why does it say "Let other players use your exo" as a task to do?
You can use someone elses EXO, there is just a delay from them getting out, to you being allowed to get in, thats off course to avoid someone stealing it, because the guy got back to base, got a welder and started welding it himself :P
Hold E to lock, hold E again to unlock, press E once to enter. A visual aid such as a short progress bar would help greatly.
Fades are already trying that.
Nonono, not lockpicking, hotwiring. But if connect the wrong wires your GPS HUD doesn't work.
If this is true, then what's the issue? How long is the delay? Maybe proximity lock would be more effective.
Someone mod this let's go
No more of this flashlight business Remi the powernode was confusing enough, what's wrong with using soft press and long press, short press E to enter, long press E to lock/unlock
Not keen on a proximity unlock. I have died before whilst welding my exo and was able to return to it. The proximity method would mean when I died it would have become unlocked
I think you should use morse code; flashlighting "OPEN" opens the exo, "CLOSE" closes it.
For reference, that would be _ _ _ . _ _ . . _ . to open and _ . _ . . _ . . _ _ _ . . . . to close. That way, no one will be able to steal your exo, trust me.
You just have to make sure nobody sees you when you flash your exo, otherwise they could copy the password.
But i think it would add an interesting layer to the game and should be implemented.
Should I eject ? Make the decision before it's too late.
While I'm in my exo, I don't gain pres, but I'm eligible to a free replacement single gun exo every five minutes, provided I didn't die to an Onos or kill myself.
I'm gonna stop now.
You don't want to keep it more than three years, afterwards, maintenance costs goes up the sky !
Last week, my left minigun would jam on every odd tracing ammo and they charged me 52.750 Units at the MechStation ! *$%##&!
