yes we all know about HitReg, HSR, and Low-Fps,
there are allot of topics about that and this is not another,
so if your posting about those, this is not your Topic,

this is a Topic about small things needed to be added to CW,
out of Combat Systems, the Command Screen, System Layout, Ect,

Please Post your Thoughts of Small things,
if they are Note Worthy i will Post them here,

1) Planetary Operations Number(Number of Active Pilots on Planet)
when you click on a Planet in its Info tab you should see the number of pilots,
attacking and defending, this i feel will help with deciding where you want to drop,
as well as ease drop times, as you can see how many Pilots are fighting or Waiting,

2) Back Button(on the Planet Info Tab)
when you click on a Planet the only button is Attack/Defend,
if its not up for such then no button is shown, you must click the X to back out,
i feel a simple Back Button, would help the Flow of how you Navigate the Map,
also they could have the Planet Info Tab close on (ESC) button Press,

3) CW MechLab(wail Waiting for a Match)
when you are waiting, and the MM is working to place you,
you should be able to Customize your Mechs wailing to Join a team,
this would allow for something to do wail waiting the long start up times,

4) Planet info(Displaying more Info)
though you can tell if your Wolf on Bear boarder, your attacker will be bear,
it should still display in the Planetary info tab that Clan Bear is attacking,
this will create more immersion as you will feel your being mobilized,
in response to this great threat, making it feel like a Military Sim,

5) Force/Faction Chat Channels(Opens Chat Tap)
when you get into CW you could look into and Enter a Force/Faction Chat Channel,
here in this Chat you could Organize united Force/Faction Assaults/Defenses on Planets,
as well as gather Tactical information about whats happening with your Force/Facton(News),
it would also help if they had an option to Right Click a Name and Chick Invite to Party,
this way pilots can easly join groups and organize their drops, ect.

6) Interactive Faction Content(Pilots room)
when you go into CW you should have a Pilots room,
where your Pilots Trophies can be displayed for you to see,
(Example)mousing over would display lore or the Achievement,
(also Fix faction Rewards all displaying Davion as your faction)

7) relocate Rasalhague Capital(as its at the Clan Boarder)
the Rasalhague Capital being so close puts Clan at a disadvantage,
as Faction Capitals cant be captured, this puts off the Clan invasion,
because of this Clan have to go around the Rasalhague Capital to continue,
also if they do it isolates Rasalhague as a faction it self, which is wrong,
also it makes what happened in Lore imposable in MWO,

8) ()


Thougths, Comments, Concerns,
Thanks,

Edit- spelling,
Edit2- added 3 & 4,
Edit3- added 5,
Edit4- added 6,
Edit4- added 7,

It'd be nice, for solo queues to be able to say -- join attack or defend queue and just get filled in somewhere.

My only problem with CW is there is not enough information presented in the UI.
For example:
  • There is no way to know how many people are queued for which battles, and how long the wait time may be. Maybe add a queue time predictor.
  • We have no way of knowning what faction attacking force is. The occupying faction shows, but what faction is the attacker? There is no easy way to know from clickign on a contested planet.
  • We don't know if other factions besides us are in conflict and which side is winning. If i am Liao how do i know if there are conflicts between Davion vs. Marik? Because all that shows is conflicts related to Liao borders
  • We don't know the conflict history of a contested planet. Which side won which conflicts and how many there were? Did the attacker just win? and are we now counterattacking? I have no idea.
Its already confusing enough as it is. They dont need to be hiding information and making it harder for us to get an idea of what is going on exactly.

Here is my list:

1. The ability to browse through the U.I. while you are waiting for a drop que. Drop deck mechs should be locked though...
2. The ability to invite other units of your faction to your drop (i.e. Davion Hellcats can't drop with Head Hunters of Davion because we are a different unit).

More to follow...

House / Faction wide global chat channels.

Similar to General and Trade channels in other MMO's.
So players can in real time request help with a certain planet, or plan multiple attack points together.

and to add onto #2, if we could just simply press ESC to close the planet info window, that'd be even better and also rename the [x] button something to like [Back to Map]

How about the ability to create and save multiple drop decks instead of just changing each mech one at a time when in a queue?

In the general menu screen you could set them up, ie:
"IS vs IS Defense"
"IS vs IS Attack"
"IS vs Clan Raid" (When we get raids)
etc

When you join a queue, you can select one, and then change the individual mechs if you so wish.

This, basically everything about how the UI looks and works is just atrocious and not friendly at all

An IS heavy mech with ecm...

Making only one planet attackable for each frontline (to reduce waiting time).
