I don’t know the full capabilities of the combat skins and I haven’t played crysis yet (planning to get 3). Could someone fill me in on the capabilities of both and which one is superior?
The nanosuit ignores all types of laws while the combat skin is just advanced yet realistically plausible science fiction.
Nanosuit: Able to render itself near invisible. Able to enhance muscles and vision for extreme reaction time and speed. Able to use energy to build up damage resitance with the suit. The suit runs on limited energy. Tactical visor allows… tactical planning. The suit grows into wounds and damges to sustain the life of the wearer.
Combat Skin: Able to keep a user alive for millenia. No need to sleep. Able to connect to the Domain. Able to house a personal ancilla. Comes in different types/rates, civilians use Combat Skin. Warrior Servants, Prometheans specifically, can use Constraint Fields to manipulate gravity and restrain targets or attack them with various forces of gravity. Not much is really known besides its life-enhancing capabilities and its Constraint Field use with Prometheans.
In a battle, the Combat Skin would likely win. It is much more technologically advanced than the Nanosuit and is very durable. The Constraint Field attachment will also render any attack from a Nanosuit useless.
The combat skin would win because it has a lot more behind it but the nanosuit is just ridiculous. Taking on 16 G-forces (or something stupid like that) is just one example of how much of a F**** Crysis doesn’t care for physics.

Have we a little bit of rage here?
…'Cause teleportation, manipulation of gravity, etc. is totally plausible.
And what’s to say that the nanosuit isn’t? It’s based off of alien technology, and uses NANOTECHNOLOGY. I suggest looking it up; we can do some pretty crazy stuff with it.

No rage it just doesn’t make anysense.
Um, you do understand that we are researching that right now right? Those studies are in primordial phases but we ARE working on them. Wasn’t the suit created before they started waking up the aliens? They are seriously warping Nanontechnology out of all context’s you really think some guys can go around kicking cars like that?
I’m gonna go with the suit made by a race of beings that could bend space and time to their whim, the suit that also made them immortal and made food and sleep completely unecessary.

Yes, I’m sure scientists are working on magic energy shielding as we speak.
And Master’s Chief ability to flip a scorpion with the whim of his mind totally fits within the constraints of reality.
But on friendlier note, yes, the nanosuit is created before the Ceph are waken in Crysis 1, but it’s based on scattered alien technology discovered throughout the past (as an example, one, if I remember correctly, one relic was found in 1919).
I agree that some of the actions do seem a little extraneous, but it’s like that in every game, and Halo is definitely not an exception.
Nanosuit is better :3

Now I am interested. Granted, I have no idea what the latest iteration of Crysis implements to the Nanosuit, but as far as the Nanosuit in the first two game goes, I see nothing inherently impossible there. So please, do tell me what’s the impossible part of the nanosuit?
Kicking cars? The Nanosuit is an exoskeleton. And I assume there would be an application in nanotechnology that would make emulating muscle tissue in such a powerful scale possible. All you need to form such an exoskeleton would be a material that stiffens the more current you run through it. As far as I know, there isn’t anything inherently impossible in such an application.
Armor mode? Granted, it’s not the most practical of designs, you could just have made the whole outer layer of the suit out of carbon nano-materials and be done with it, no need for anything that consumes energy. Then again if it’s already done that way and the system only makes the layer stiffer when you run current through it, that’s completely plausible.
Cloak? I don’t think I need to tell you that is something already heavily researched.
In the end of the day, I don’t see any properties in the nanosuit that make it inherently impossible. In fact, I consider it far more plausible than the combat skin simply because the science behind it is already proven while the science behind the combat skin, while potentially plausible, is something that is at a completely hypothetical level. In other words, we are far closer to being able to build a Nanosuit than a combat skin.
