DICE comes to mind first. Man, with all the controversy, I'd even be ok with Bohemia Interactive.
I believe many other companies could do justice to MWO, were their aim to create a Battletech game, not to squeeze tons of money out of a loosely BT-themed arena-shooter with 10 maps and the same bugs over 3+ years. It seems anyone else could at least make mechs of proper sizes, but not PGI, apparently. Because they don't care. And to care for what you are doing should be #1 priority.

For BT mech-sim there is too little 'sim' here, and too little respect to BT. We don't, and we won't have here a full-fledged BT mech sim, with the proper sense of scale, collisions, usable JJ, melee combat, tanks and other stuff, including lore. Because that's not on the drawing board, and never will be. Even CW they have finally delivered is more of a self-delusion than what people would expect it to be.
Yes, MWO is a nice game, but I just can't perceive it as a BT game, sorry.

being a bf3-bf4 player I don't want DICE.

sure they are good games but they suffer problems on their own even with a FULL SIZED company.

PGI is not perfect and sometimes I wish I could just line them all up and yell at them on how to fix the game but I enjoy the game.

you pick your founder badge and title in game now just so you know.

Easy, working hit registration would be great in the view of the Space Pope.

The one thing I would change

I would take the nerf bat away from PGI

This 100%. It would limit PPFLD, increase TTK, increase diverse weapon load outs, decrease boating, and a plethora of other factors.

And it would not affect the majority of my builds! Including my 90+ point Alpha Atlas-S.

Funny how someone named Cannon would use their wish to change canon.

sarna.net said:

The Guardian ECM Suite was introduced in 2597 by the Terran Hegemony^[1]. Designed to interfere with guided weaponry, targeting computers, and communication systems, the Guardian is typically used to shield allied units from such equipment by emitting a broad-band signal meant to confuse radar, infrared, ultraviolet, magscan and sonar sensors.^[2] Affected systems include Artemis IV, C3 and C3i Computer networks, and Narc Missile Beacons. A Guardian can jam a Beagle Active Probe (or its Clan equivalent), but the probe-equipped unit will be aware of the jamming. The Capellan Confederation expanded the utility of the Guardian even more with the introduction of Stealth Armor.^[3] Contemporary guided missiles such as standard LRM or Streak SRMs are not affected by the Guardian suite and will be able to achieve hard lock as normal.

Canon has already been changed.

What do you consider the single change that would make the most positive difference to the game?

The removal of Team Precious Little Snowflake.

[Porcorosso101]

3 wishes please!
More varied maps
Destructible terrain (at least the buildings and trees)!
Mech adjustments/choices (armour choice, torso speeds, all within certain limits!)

[CaliburZero]

Make rewards on this game not pitiful without Cbill bonus mechs and Premium Time.

[TheCharlatan]

No more invisible walls.

That alone would improve the game 100%.

AND would not require years of balancing afterwards.

One can dream...

If I could change one thing....

I would totally remove the need for it to make money to survive. Imagine the Mechwarrior game we could have if they weren't constantly tweaking to entice people to spend more money.
