I vote for a Map/mission type :

A gigantic Boom box in center of the map, the teams fight for control , who controls gets to pick the music. and everyone must listen to it no turning it off.

I hope so hard, even if its a slim chance, that they get Jehuun to do the music. He did Mechwarrior 2 and Mercs' music, and I consider those to be the best video game soundtracks to ever have graced my ears.

However, besides the artist, I would love for MWO to take a systematic approach that Starcraft 2 took with its music. What they did is have tons of tracks, and then have transitional tracks that are only 20 seconds long or so. This allowed them to ramp the music up with the game. The music system detected unit movements and battles and would direct the music accordingly, so it might choose a more tense track if units are getting very close to each other, and then transition into a powerful and loud track when the battles start breaking out.

To have a system like this combined with Jehuun's awesome style would just tickle my fancy.

I don't know about anyone else, but I will be having Two Steps From Hell, Blackmill, KMFDM, Eisbrecher, VNV Nation, Panzer Ag, Covenant, Lacuna Coil playing. Things like that!

Though I really like the classical feeling orcestra playing while I am blasting things.

What little music I'll be listening to while waiting for the drop will tend towards AC/DC. Any techno, pop, etc will be quickly eliminated from the hard drive... with extreme prejudice.

Any intro/cut scene music will be left to the devs decision, tho' if too artsy-fartsy will be muted quickly.

Classical music could be tolerated as long as it is in the spirit of;

I turn the music off. I'd rather hear weapons fire, armor blasting away, and the oh-so satisfying sound of an enemy 'Mech going critical. That is my soundtrack for MechWarrior.

ok, then i would pick the song "barbie girl" just to drive my opponents crazy.

I agree with trycksh0t, my music is usually too involving for me to keep concentration on the battle. However!

It seems MW4 never gets a break around here

Personally, I really liked the background rock music, especially "Hunter" by cornboy. Oh well, that game seems to have become a fad to hate anyway, so it really doesn't matter. If anyone's interested, here it is:
