Hmmm... We do not know if shields are 'skin-tight' or just a sphere. Also, remember that it is only a game- it can be just an oversight.

It's not an oversight. It's a deliberate decision of the BioWare / EA management to say "bye-bye" to the sci-fi setting of the original, which was based on books and movies of 1960-80s, and embrace the today's generic mainstream "culture" of comic books and movies based on those comic books. That's why every charecter now has their own distinctive "style", each of them is a superhero of sorts, that "would not be happy if someone ordered them what to wear". Instead of adjusting the characters to the game setting (which still allows for them to retain a certain degree of individuality) they have adjusted the game setting to the characters (whose individualities are just shattering the game and the entire ME universe apart). Under this policy the players are not allowed to do this:

Okay, this is really getting us nowhere... Few more posts, and we are all going to fall from the Rim and spend next eternity floating aimlessly in space.

For those of you panicking about this think of it this way. Armor is now split up into what, six slots? You have 10 party members plus yourself, who I'm betting would require being well geared to survive the suicide mission. That's 66 pieces of armor you have to collect, equip and keep track of. So what if it's not that hard, it is long tedious work, and people complained about this in ME1 that only had seven sets of armor to worry about.

They could always progam in a button called "AUTOMANAGE"

Nobody ever said it was powered armour. The codex entry on combat hardsuits calls them just that, hardsuits. A layer of kinetic padding as the main part of the armour with vital areas reinforced with ceramic plates. The heavier the armour the more ceramic plates. As far as I can recall it never mentioned anything about it being powered or made from metal. The only "power" I can think of for the armour is from the eezo core and that's to generate the kinetic barrier, not power the armour. Oh, and the Combat Exoskeleton upgrade could make it powered, but as standard the armour is not powered, it's simply a hardsuit.

Power Armor, hardsuit whatever. The fact is all of the squadmates except fraking Tali and Legion, who is basically a powered armor itself, lack it. Even old buddy Garrus forgets his helmet in Omega's alley we meet him. They don't look like SPACE MARINES, ready to fight in vacuum / lethally hazardous environmets. Which leaves nothing for them to do aboard the Normandy II.

Thanks SO MUCH for the spoilers, ass. Seriously, for someone who makes such a big stink about the pillars of an RPG, you went right out and brought up two big story points (Legion as a party member? Meeting Garrus on Omega?) in a SPOILER FREE forum without thinking twice.

Get dead.

Because it's not. You have obvious trolls, and then trolls. Just avoid the thread, it's a bloody stupid one anyway.
