An ashtray overflowing with cigs, ash and burnt matches, beer cans rolling back and forth on the floor and a staggering amount of ancient, yellowed wunder baum fresheners hung from every knob and screen above the front window.

I second personal weapons.

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.

Speaking as a disreputable merc:

Bottle of whisky
Oily rag
Magazine called "Unfeasibly Large Guns & Ammo"
Empty snack wrappers
Parking ticket stuck to windscreen
Used snotty tissue
Hand weapon (big knife, cosh etc.)
Trophies - some ears on a string

And the absolute must....

RPG Family stuff - a short sword at the cockpit wall, or the order of the tamar tigers - in transplex - memory at a long dead ancestor. Something like that.

SoundRacer V8, cuz it turns your family mech into a fire-breather. It's an incredibly simple device to use - plug it into your mechs cigarette lighter socket ... argh, well aparently we need an cigarette lighter socket too.

And analog gauges for speed, heat and acceleration value.

I have not read all 36 pages and I know some of these have been suggested but here's my list of things that spring to mind:

- A Mech kill stencil
- Different color lights for equipment
- A mech repair manual
- A Jar of jelly babies
- Hanging dog tags
- House emblems
- Mech manufacturer logos/names
- A tablet with ISN news
- A Solaris poster
- Half eaten sandwich
- Holstered Pistol
- Sweat shirt tossed in a corner
- Oily Rag
- An eject handle (whether we can use it or not)
- A mech model
- A hand held game system (thinking gameboy)
- An electric fan
- A canteen
- Two tone trim for your cockpit interior
- Bullet casings
- An autocannon shell (possibly with your name written on it)

I'm absolutely sure there's some great ideas to be thought of and this is only scratching the surface.

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.
