Is there a list of what decals that are still going to be implemented? I tried a search, but came up dry. I noticed that the Crescent Hawks decal has been added from the Battletech PC games, but not the Blazing Aces logo from Mechwarrior 1. I was wondering if there was any way to see if there are plans for this.

Numbers seem like a likely thing that SHOULD be put in. I mean every Battletech scene or art i've seen had numbers on Mechs.

I think I've lost hope for PGI to give us decals that we ask for.

The eyeball is cool.. and can be a black circle.. but they won't give us basic shapes and numbers.

(My theory is that they're going to hold stuff like that hostage so that we pay 1,000+ MC for custom decals that we upload and get them to put into the game, by hand.)

I would rather the numbers and letters be a package. I'm not spending the same for a design on simple numbers and letters.

The decals for the rest of the invading clans (Diamond Shark, Nova Cat, Steel Viper) are coming in December, I believe.

Yeah, numbers would be nice.

I like that we got the logos for periphery factions. Should make some lore freaks happy.

Numbers yes!

Can you see where I'm going with this?

I have the feeling all decals are already done but we only get a bunch so we buy some new every month till we have the "right" ones. I mean the quality was upped if you look at the new ones... *tinfoilhat*

However, numbers should be in the next wave but I hope they are a bit cheaper than 180mc... on the other hand I only need three Posted Image

Well we can be certain every big name merc group will get their icon in the game, here is hoping for some form of the Eridani Light Horse's. Though, I am looking for more of a Unicorn bust as my signature shows, I know we have a Horse decal and St. Ives Compact, but, neither quite match what I want, though the Horse one is close, might be able to do something with it.

I am super disappointed with some of the decals in the latest patch. They just look like clip art. It looks like a .jpg applied to a texture in a video game. It looks so unrealistic, and the style of art in the decals is just the opposite of what I'm looking for in decals.

I was hoping for numbers, letters, and all the normal elements in unit insignia, like hearts, stars, skulls, daggers, tigers, sharks, all those standard elements that could be layered and combined to create unique unit insignia for MWO. I mean, I was expecting to see a fairly typical symbol representing the eye, not an HD painting of an eyeball with veins and cataracts. How am I going to use that?

Did PGI just buy the license to use some clipart and just haphazardly insert it into the game as decals? What happened? Why do we have the astrological sign for Jupiter before we have the the letters of the alphabet? In case someone writes "genitals" on their mech?

Parents who are worried about children getting offended can disable teamchat and all chat. So let us disable decals too. Then we can just report people for offensive use of decals, just like we can report people for saying offensive things in chat.

<sigh> It shouldn't have to be this hard.

If they're not going to do letter, at least give us roman numerals or Greek characters.
