Personalized lighting options gotta have my blue glow or some christmas lights on strings

Hey guys,

I have a 'job' for all of you. I need you to reply to this with stuff you'd like to see in your 'Mechs cockpit - as in 'items' like Fuzzy Dice, Hula Girl, etc. I'm collecting these as an informal study.

So please, answer away!

Well, I'm kinda surprised that nobody else brought this up.

Coffee Maker
Beer
Mini Bar!
Dart Board (Holographic)
Tiny holographic pole dancers.

Cheers all. See you in game!

before i forget something really important for every expensive and technologically sophisticated thning:

duct tape

Quoting for emphasis. Its also an inside joke on the MW4 Sunder Junkies Mission server. Please let us have a (partial used?) roll of duct tape lying around on the dashboard.

A plate of fine VAT GROWN BACON!

[Xandre Blackheart]

A slider bar that lets you go from "pristine new mech with new car smell" to "OMFG you actually sit in this dirty rusty pig sty?" and several points in between.

I do like the hula girl, it's traditional. But also, half full liquor bottles are fun to, they slosh when you walk.

tally markers are good, lots of good stuff mentioned.

Number one thing for me would definitely be a cigar/ashtray. Damn right Im smoking in this thing!

OMG!

Customised Controls!

Some pilots might prefer the 'Duel Stick' setup whilst others may prefer a 'HOTAS' (Hands On Throttle And Stick) setup. Even different styled sticks/throttles/pedals (I doubt you can see pedals) would be super cool and the next level of cockpit customisation. There are some really cool possibilties, like the controls they use in the movie Avatar where the body is linked to the mech through cables.... mannnn so cool!

[Raven Starbinder]

A really well cushioned leather seat for the long missions, extra change of clothing, first aid kit, really good air conditioning, faction insiginas and badges. Incase of ejection, a sword holder, side arm, emergency food rations, emergency hand comm. Lets not forget a display screen for the rear view cameras, pin-up girl.

1. Hampster running in a wheel.

3. A random classic battletech mech record book (cover visible), appropriate for the current game time period.

4. A little green tree shaped air freshener.

5. A notepad with "Edge: 0/3" scribbled on it.

6. A stickynote that says "remember to buy more ammo".

I like the Cup holder Idea, but it could go one more and make it a useable feature, like you can buy Monster drinks, " and you guys might be able to tie in to some minor sponsors " but have the drinks work for like the food stuff in WoT... better driving, or better auto lock or something...

maybe a Shrunken head? maybe with some type of mech helm on it...

Skull with maybe something Carved into it like the Words " No Guts - No Galaxy " in red...

A working kill counter on a paper pad, or digital screen-ipad-thing would be cool too...

[Tenam]

Definately the pine tree and hash marks for kill counts or successful campaigns/missions
