Lex,
I still dont think you'll have the capacity to pilot and MAX on the same character as it'd also defeat the whole idea of having four character slots, and Im quite confident in the assumption that Galaxy pilots won't ever get into MAX armour.
The way the devs seem to be talking about the cert system is that each cert has a BEP cost, the more valuable the cert the higher the cost, as they've talked about aircraft being, in terms, more 'expensive' than other certs. They have also hinted that character-specialisation will occur. Correct me if I am wrong.
What we're talking about here is getting all the certs to pre-req for your suggested loadout, and then getting the certs for MAX and mosquito themselves. It's safe to assume these are two of the most expensive certs in game.
Going by the logic, if you had the capacity to create a MAX/Pilot, the point cost would probabally allow you to create a medic / engineer / hacker all under the one character.
Preview material I have read also backs these assumtions up. Previewers of the game reporting on their specific experience with PlanetSide all seem to stem from a specialisation.
If you can create a MAX/Mosquito, you're combining the hardest infantry unit on the game with the fastest air unit in the game. I just think it would cause imbalance. Its too much for one character to do, I dont think it'd work this way.
Thoughts?
