Also, I would like to see "themes" for the cockpit. Messy, for instance, with garbage or dirty, caked screens and controls. Or jury-rigged, with paneling torn off and wires hanging out, and other cosmetic internal "customizations" ala Millennium Falcon.
Another favorite would be mech voices. I would pay for a mech computer that sounded like GlaDos or any number of personalities (not just voices, but personalities) in a heartbeat. Preferably a different one for each mech. Scout would be fast and high strung, an Assault probably cocky and condescending.
Also, I like the idea of bloodstains.
Also, as a side note, if we were allowed to have a "picture frame" style item, with custom imagery, image uploading wouldn't even be required. Since the local player is the only one who would see it, I imagine the client could load a image file from the machine locally. No need to store such a thing server side, I would think.

4) Pull triggers on any ugly mech laid eyes on.
or
1) Eggs, bacon, bread, beer
2) Toilet roll, air freshener
3) Plasma cartridges, 3,000 rounds AC/5 ammo, 6x cases of SRM6 missiles.

This is a complete oxymoron, as in religion being a assumption, especially in a SCIFI universe where human isnt the only life form out there.
BTW the story line wasn't added till later, not with the original battletech series from the 80's.
here is a clip from the Great George Carlin
Religion's do exist in the BT universe. Why would some of the factions give the right of freedom of religion if religion didn't exist in the BT Universe at all?
Resorting to name calling a fellow MechWarrior for just this. Not Cool, not cool.
Using a comedian that is not talking seriously about the subject as if his words actually mean more than a joke to get people to laugh. Not cool either.
The best way to handle religious representation issues is to let it all be represented not only one or neither. Neither is not good enough because it actually can only represent one view point like atheism. We really don't need F2P store bought items to do such a thing. Just not discrimination of player loaded content against these or filtered out.
