I agree 100% with the OP's suggestions. I don't know why it's taken them so long to implement this.

At least then everyone will have a chance to take snipers on sniping maps and brawlers on close quarters maps. It'll even out the odds.

...No really I have 56 mechs, I can ALWAYS have the perfect mech with the prefect mods on it for any map, BORING.

I have 78 mechs with duplicates of some for different paint schemes. Having the perfect mech for a map is not boring. I don't know how you could know that since we can't pick maps yet.

EDIT: having to play assault/heavy snipers because they are the only mech versatile enough to be decent on any of MWO's diverse maps is boring.

LOL

I remember closed beta, remember that? Trying to run a sniper was actually stupid because you couldn't actually keep range.

The issue is that mlas were heat nerfed, as were slas, AND missile had their teeth completely pulled. So no **** snipers are ruling the roost.

^ Yeah, too many weapons are useless right now... we need actual options for customization.

Wait wait, how'd we end up on double heatsinks from talking about basic features of every online game.

What´s missing:

- Gameplay modes besides TDM/CTF
- Maneuver characteristics such as balance, water, terrain modifications, proper collision damage, knockdown
- Melee
- Gradual heat effects besides shutdown
- A canon mode
- A full sim mode like WarThunder has
- A full warfare mode like WarThunder has
- A dropship mode
- A working and balanced modification system
- A proper thought behind the method LRMs are used
- Field repair/rearm stations
- In game communication (chat makros,VOIP, etc)

the list is endless.

True, that's a list of things that are missing but I thought to make the list simpler so I named only things that are basics of every other online game out there, just to make a point of view.

[Sidekick]

from my post above, just the basics:
- gameplay modes besides TDM/CTF; Conquest can not be concidered to be a "domination" game mode, since the TDM aspect overweights
- characteristics to movement. Right now, it´s somewhat "early alpha" with the movement system. Uninteresting and not to the purpose.
- gradual heat effects besides shutdown. Basic Battletech/mechwarrior element
- in game communications
- canon mode

The lack of a real ecomony is starting to bug me...... Will Houses/Clans/Merc Corps just have unlimited resources available to them?

Will everyone in CW be able to field lances of D-DC's and Higlander Mechsnipers, loose battles and mechs with no attrition to stockpiles and available mechs?

If you remember the, once popular, OGame.
Yup, that is how I picture CW will be. I'm pretty sure matches wont change a bit. You'll still be dropping pug or 8man into games without any rules for participating mechs, only this time there'll be some number that'll get increased/decreased after the match ends.

Good Point. Really, a lot of equipment choices in the BT canon are not made by effectivenes, but economical limitations. So I agree that the lack of economics and limitless availability of high-tier equipment may be a mistake.

A system that seperates the mechs by power/tech level may be a solution.
