_______if we go with the single player respawn, have it so there isnt a drop ship, or maybe have it so the team respawns in waves with a drop ship, if no dropship, lets orbital drop them onto the battle field, give them a controllable fall onto a random place near their teams spawn side of the map.
_______now with lance respawn, so we all have two mechs we chose to enter the pug match with, why not make it a little interesting and throw the 'spare' mechs from each lance into a respawn pot, so alpha has their pot of mechs all the pilots in alpha can choose from, this is not a team pot mind you, just alpha, bravo and charlie have made their own pots using their lance's spare mechs. this would allow of some interesting strategies to arise.
_______this would make domination quite a bit more interesting as the base could serve as a respawn point, or maybe just a landing pad, the dropship could be destructible, making base defence a priority to allow your teammates to re-enter the fight safely.
_______now yes i get that this isn't detailed, speaks nothing of all the background work that would need to be done to allow this in the game, sorry devs if this becomes a hot topic, i pray your work week involves a pizza party in it if you could do something like this, now if it takes you a year as a full time project, we are gonna have some talking to do.
_______thirdly, why do we have to pay premium time for private matchmaking, also why cant it be custom, why not allow the modding community in on improving this game, so make them pay like, $20 for being able to access the game code, ill foot the bill for some of them. they will go wild with it, probably i mean, have you looked at the workshop for arma recently? its amazing, please let the game grow a little, if your worried about being outdone by your community, first, don't, they arent here to steal you glory, well, most of it anyway, and secondly, they will give you enough material to work with that your work load could drop significantly, create a coding thread, let the community work with you instead of angrily shake its fist at you indiscriminately.
______okay, my rant is done, please discuss this comment, i'd love to see where we can go. if you hate rants, sorry, it didn't start that way, but it sure as hell ended that way. as i cant you tab, the underscores are to replace, it bothers my OCD, just go with it.
