I know this is about as old as dirt, but does anyone else miss the ability to have 4 mechs available for quick selection? Would anyone else like to see it back?

I'd like to see it come back and be selectable from after finding out the map you're dropping on.

Absolutely. Me and some warriors on the Australian channel of the NA comstar server were just talking about this today. Having a ridiculous number of mechs it would be nice to have a quick select-able panel of the ones I'm working on.

I think the UI 2.0 was a step in the right direction and even with the somewhat painful task of getting used to this new UI it is much improved over the last one (though I also do think it's starting to show it's age a little. Where's UI 2.1?).

I'd like to be able to just flag some of my favorite mechs and then have an option to filter by favorites.

DROP DECKS
A drop deck is a selection of 4 ‘Mechs in the player’s inventory. Each of the 4 ‘Mechs must be one of each weight class (one light, one medium, one heavy, one assault). All 4 ‘Mechs must belong to the same technology core (IS or Clan). The Drop Deck is a means for the player to quickly choose their favorite ‘Mech of a specific weight class when in the defender queue outlined above.

The Drop Deck will display the following:

• Currently chosen Light ‘Mech thumbnail
  
• Currently chosen Medium ‘Mech thumbnail
  
• Currently chosen Heavy ‘Mech thumbnail
  
• Current chosen Assault ‘Mech thumbnail
  
• A drop down in each 'Mech panel will allow the player to change a 'Mech for an owned, same weight class 'Mech.

With you on this 100%. In the old UI, that's how I always knew where my modules and cockpit items were. (Those only went in the 4 quickslot mechs)

Bah, one of each weight class is lame, as most people I know only really run one or two weight classes with any kind of regularity, myself included.
