-Different colors for the control panels. Some may want the basic grey but other may want some green highlights here and there.
-Dirt in the corners of the cockpit window.
-Different HUD colors and styling.



Any dirt on my windscreen and I would sack my ground crew!!!

This stuck somewhere inside... Maybe substitute mech for car or pirate ship for anything hilarious.

Hehe, not sure what I can add here that hasn't already been said many times.

1. Custom stereo speakers, with animated woofers that thump to the beat.

2. Pinup art, of course. - Maybe have house-themed pinups (Geisha pinups for Kurita, etc.)

3. Uploadable/custom photos (Since it's only visible in your cockpit, could be stored locally, no need to upload to server)

4. Hanging items; fuzzy dice, St. Christopher medals, rubber spiders, etc. (though might require massive development resources for implementation of fuzzy dice physics)

That is what PokeMon is for.


Yes, but I love this game already and I want them to make crap tons of money, so I suggest the things that will accomplish this.
A fool and his money are soon parted, anyone who pays money for Pokemon cards is already a fool.

loving all the ideas :) i hope to see them all no matter how bad some can get, they are all relivent! :)
a few idea's i had was;

1. a programmable computer screen/screen on the right or left side so you can add scores, messages and so on (when i say programmable i just mean like add text such as kill counters, rank, personal memo's, a shopping list, and so on as the list could be endless on what you can put into it at a mechlab? this is an adaptation on a previously said whiteboard aswell)

2. love the idea of uploading custom photos!

3. replace the joysticks with a mouse and keyboard? its the way i play?! however i dont see this happening or take it seriously myself.

not got many more but i love all ideas like i said.

I would like something that would melt in the cockpit heat. Like an ice sculpture of a swan or an icecream sundae.

Bonus XP at the end of the match if you keep it from melting :)

-Pictures, or possible places to upload real life photos. (Hell, I'd dedicated a secondary monitor to it!)

-Urbie Bobblehead.


Cheers.
YES THIS!
something where we can use our own photo for something in the cockpit would REALLY give a mech a personal touch

The ability to turn off whatever is added.
All I want to see is the Battlefield and all I want to hear is Command Orders and the Report of my Weapons.

:)

I think my favs so far are the Odometer, Hulu Girls, Custom Picture Frame, Piranha Games Staff Bobbleheads and the Sawed off Double Barrel Shotgun that shoots Plasma Slugs.

I like the idea of having a music player or poster that would use the player's own MP3s or images. Unlike having player-created decals, nobody else would be able to see it so there'd be no problem having it.

Oh man, I thought of a good one.

A Megaslush.

Because some days, all you want is a megaslush, especially when the Regis Mark Five is trying to take over terra and cannot be stopped.

I want immersion into the BT universe; something I have never had in a previous MW game. Like a built-in encyclopedia or A NEWS FEED of current events. Yeah that would be cool, have legit ISN news briefing (just the audio so you don't need to record actual video) a la NPR style.

Stegosaurus: Yes... yes. This is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... This Land.
Allosaurus: I think we should call it... your grave!

A digital clock with real time taken from the computer. It helps people to realise what time it is in addictive games and yours is certainly one.

And something hard to implement, but still... a mirror would be great. ;)

there are tons of good ideas here, but i havent seen a request for xmas lights. blinking or not, dont matter to me, but id love to see some strung up around the cockpit. maybe have a few colors to choose from. ive seen several people wanting hampsters. id love to have a fish bowl with a gold fish or a terrarium with a turtle and a miniature palm tree in it, that would be too cool.

-Mech miniatures/bobbleheads

-Dropship/Capship miniatures, possibly same for any other current tech: aircars, bikes, etc

-Place for real-life uploaded photos of wives, girlfriends, favourite bag of Cheetos

-simple tetris/bejeweled videogame my opponents can play instead of powering up as I get the jump on them.

-Suitable faction-styled gear or mottos.

-Above 65 tons: bar fridge, fruit basket.

-Above 80 tons: kitchen, maybe a lounger, widescreen TV...
