Russ said on Twitter that decals are pretty much ready & they'll have about 90 available on release but will be looking to add more.

That brings us to the purpose of this thread, discussing what kind of decals you'd like to see. Faction decals are obviously amongst the 90 so let's try to be creative.

Also, feel free to comment on how much decals should cost.

I think the first things we'll see are the Badges being put in as decals. Not a bad idea.

After that we'll likely see stuff like rank symbols from the various factions and clever ones like "point away from face".

I think at one point, maybe right away or later, but customizable text decals, like, you can put,

"DAKKADAKKA"

"NASCAR 4 LYFE"


Stuff like that.

So many different Pandora's boxes would be unleashed if they allowed custom text, lol

I'd like to see all of the factions to begin with, including the ones not in game(Star Adder). Maybe some of the more famous units from the lore. Anything that would make sense on a military vehicle. Numbers, letters, roman numerals, simple shapes so we can layer them and make something neat.

Then custom unit icons. Maybe have it restricted to only people in that certain unit.


funny how this was all in mercs to begin with

Well this thread isnt really about guessing but rather suggesting what PGI should add after the 90.

Bandoliers are optional.

I'd like to see rank decals, only usable IF you have the appropriate CW rank.

Custom decals were a huge hobby of mine in MechWarrior 4. I hope we will have the opportunity to use custom decals.

That would be cool, I'd just worry about how they'd filter it.

"lets get creative" I almost gota ask "why?"

If they have a nice Skull and Crossbones or any crossed weapons it will be used by 90% of the players.
