Metahuman- Athena Mission Question

[Garthiel]

Greetings friends, I hope you enjoy this great game!

Question and without spoilers: It is mandatory to complete Athena's "Metahuman" mission; to unlock the other main story missions? I can pass it?

I don't see the benefits of the new "armour"; and it affects my playing style. Are there real benefits? I tried to wear a body armour; but i cant.. is a bug, or thats the way of the change?

Thank you so much

Once you finished the 'Metahuman mission' , you're not longer able to wear a body suit/armour. (It's not a bug)
As far as I know you can skip the mission, at least in the current version.
The new update version 4.00 will contain new content and perhaps there will be a way to reverse the Metahuman skin.
It is already hinted by Athena that there might be a way to reverse the proces.
In the video (preview of changes in version 4.00) you can see a player wearing the Metaskin and a player doing new stuff not wearing the Metaskin, i'll guess by today we will find out.

Regarding the benefits, wearing the Metaskin enables you to run constantly without getting tired, as you porobably already noticed it does give you less armour/dmg resistance/absorption/health. It's a tradeoff, Metaskin gives you unlimted running ability (which can be very helpfull) but less survivability. Regular bodysuit more armour (etc) but you can't run forever.

When i saw the blood in that surjery table,,,,,,,, "Bad idea, just run ,,,, no way to put myself in that risk.... "

Thanks for ur kind support and help mate!! I wish u a great SpaceBourne 4.0!!
