I want to stare down the Clan mechs, so the eyes need to come back!

[MercJ]

Just keeping this one at the top...I miss this feature as well, and it would be simple to implement! Putting my vote in for Atlas eyes!

[Circles End]

For the third time in this thread, I will say: I still miss it. Gief ploxx

That would be awesome, cmon, just add a toggle button, so , no one is forced to play with glowing eyes, and for us who love it, can have it back.

[wanderer]

This would be trivial to implement.

And similar options could be put on other chassis as well using the same button that does "missile door" for things like the Catapult.

Think of them as giant robot taunt/emotes. Style points.

[Galaxy Crusader Puppeteer]

Or you can toggle it useing cockpit light as well, the more light u use inside the cockpit,the more the eyes glow. Which makes sense. I dont know how hard for them is to implement such a thing. Being a small team and having much stuff do to in upcoming months.

But sure is a great idea and immersion wise an awesome thing.

[AlmightyAeng]

There are even more clan mechs to target my juicy CT now...at least give me flashy eyes for style points. I want to go down looking cool!

You're giving me a new Atlas for Customer Appreciation...give it flashy eyes too! I'm begging you! I've given up on begging for balance, and changes to ECM. I've lowered all my requests but this one! Please? lol

Give light up cockpit glass to all Mechs!

P.S. I also want purchasable Gurren Lagann sunglasses for my Banshee

[DasSibby]

Oh.. Or make it a bragging right!

Like, "I killed 100 mechs in my Atlas. Now my mech's eyes glow with bloodlust...

[TheStrider]

Another vote for toggleable red eye.

If you want to make it semi-exclusive - put it on the founders Atlas.

[Estonniel]

Toggle on and off would be indeed ideal. the atlas does not have weapon bay doors anyways. perfect key to use for just that.

[Drasc]

I miss the glowing eyes, would love to see them back in the game.

[Twilight Fenrir]

Ditto, loved them in the early game... Terrifying thing cresting a hill and seeing 8 red glowing dots,on a 'stomp' of Atlas.

Hehe, back in the day we coined terms for groups of mechs, like a murder of ravens, a stomp of atlas, etc...

[Nightmare1]

Never been an Atlas fan because I was a lousy Atlas pilot (am way better in a BLR).

That being said, seeing those glowing eyes come trudging towards me was always a bit chilling and awe-inspiring. I would love to see them returned to the game as a toggle-able feature.

Besides, it looks like I'm going to be an Atlas pilot whether I'm good with them or not - I'm getting that free one PGI is giving away. You can bet that I want the eyes on mine to glow!

[Circles End]

It would be nice if a dev would at least acknowledge the existence of this thread. So we at least would know if we're punching air here, or if it might actually happen.

It's the regular, not Founder, Atlas that has the glowing eyes. And I liked them...

I still remember being on my trusty founder catapult back in closed beta near the radar dish on forest colony, hammering people with LRMs and suddenly my back being raked by laser fire. I figured "Damn, another hunchback went through the cave or something and is attacking me from behind, what a bother" and thus, I turned around....

... to see four red glowing eyes. Oh, ****.

Cue Benny Hill music as I ran my pretty behind off as fast as I could, screaming at my team to help save me from that evil pair of Atlas...

Yeah, I survived just fine, they took too long to get on top of the hill, and my team capped the base. Good, memorable match...

[Greenjulius]

I never realized the Atlas eyes glowed until I saw early footage of the game.

I. Want.

[Nightmare1]

So many votes! Surely PGI will give us back out glowing eyes soon, right?

I'll admit that I'm not an Atlas pilot, but I loved the effect of the glowing eyes in-game. Besides, since I'm getting a free one soon, I want it all fired up to strike maximum terror into the hearts of my enemies!
