I don't know if anyone has suggested this before. I couldn't find it in the forums, but that doesn't mean anything other than I looked.
People have requested the option to choose a maps, and the Devs have asked if we would be willing to put up with less balanced matches, longer waits, or other inconveniences. Others have suggested letting pilots pick their mech after the map is chosen, but as others asked how do you keep it from being 12 lights or heavies and how much would waiting for pilots to choose slow down the "Ready screen"?
My suggestion I hope solves a lot of those problems. Simply use a weight class slot system. A pilot chooses 1 of 4 weight classes and searches for a match. When the planet is chosen a default trial mech is selected. Then they are given the standard 80 seconds I believe it is to choose a mech from that weight class. If in that time they have not chosen, they simply drop with the trial mech.
Thoughts?
