somekinde of badge with text written on: "Remove before operation" oder "REMOVE BEFORE COMBAT"

[Haxx0r]

ok let's get some serious stuff into this thread...

1. someone asked fore a rear view cameramonitor..

i think that is a good idead and woud be realistic.

2. i woud like to have almost all the HUD on monitors placed into the cockpit.

i know the pilot has a helmed like a fighterjetpilot. but stuff like minimap, targed and let's say heat woud look great placed into the cockpit. (maye some of the displays break after you took to much damage)

3. some personal stuff.

like a real soldier woud decorate his workingspace , (photos of his wife or family, some sticker's ect.)


p.s. Sorry for my bad english :-)

Here are a few more:

O5P book.

Sayings of Jerome Blake (or whatever his book is called).

Unique start-up security phrase(have a text-to-voice synthesizer that reads whatever code phrase you input, with a pilot response that you can record yourself). It was one of the great classic elements of the books that every Mechwarrior had a code phrase he'd use to secure his ride, using voice print data combined with the proper call and response. I'm sure it'd be hard to implement, but it might be something that a good number of people would pay a decent amount for. This should be plugged in prior to powering your 'Mech up at the beginning of a mission (or gaining control of it or whatever).

Comprehensive audio warning package (according to Main Event, many pilots opted for an audio warning suite rather than the standard visual one (or in addition too). This could come in multiple languages (English, German, Japanese, Mandarin, etc.), and have several voice options.

that sounds great :-D

I would like to see an actual implementation of critical damage. Use one of the monitors for how many point of crit damage you have taken in a specific area

[buttmonkey]

a clock that tells the right time. its easy to get carried away and not realise your playing into the early hours. pretty much every single online game has the time displayed. if not in the **** pit then in the top corner or something.

also a better mech model if you know what i mean. if you have an atlas then a model of an atlas etc not the generic thing we have now.

WW2 style kill market and nose art for the mechanism like the planes did in WW2

[Tribesmen]

I would love the ability to customize our pilot so when we look down we can see the cooling vest, pants, and boots we have chosen. I think an avatar customization system like EVE would ROCK in this game!

As for cockpit trinkets, as long as they are lore friendly. I would love a pic of Natasha Kerensky!

I would like highbeams on my mech. Sometimes your buds just get in your line of fire. Show them who's boss with some friendly flashing.

-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.

Some kind of hand-held weapon, in case you had to abandon ship.

Hand held weapon is a MUST, be it carbine, pistol, or blade of some type. Remember that even if a mechwarrior was totally useless outside the mech, I can remember many I rolled up who couldn't win a fight against a paper bag out of the cockpit, would still be considered a target depending on who they were fighting.

The ability to change up certain aspects of how the HUD looks would also add to the personalization as well.

I'd like a "sticker" option, a choice of one House or Clan emblem.

[BabyCheesus]

serious want:

display for webcam of other players on team
real ejection seat handles to disconnect from current game

fun wants:
nerf gun to shoot at the interior cockpit screen (imagine hitting the eject button with that lol)
water bottle/gun/balloon
8 track player with 8 track cassette
the automatic pilot from "Airplane!"

[MacKerris]

wanted poster
tt rules

[JebusGeist]

An eject button

Failing that, I suppose I'd like to see customizable color schemes/control panels and customizable faction specific decorations. It it weren't for copyright laws I'd say I want a full on TRON themed cockpit complete with the control stick from a Recognizer

Oh, and perhaps a small vanity mirror or two so I can be all narcissistic while i shoot at someone in freelook mode.

Optional displays on the dash, above the window, and on the walls of the cockpit with animated readouts that actually update with the same realtime information used for the heads up display versions would be really nifty

A dashboard fan (if gets bloody hot in those cockpits).

An analogue dash mounted compass (because once again, the heads up display just isnt enough for me!)
