Noo I"m not talking about CW's ready list... im talking about this

Put back into the UI for normal Conquest/ Assault/ or Skirmish games...

I even found a great place to put this..

After 2 years I have abou 88 mechs... and its a chore to scroll though them especially when with friends and trying to find my 4 mechs that are ready to go


Edit... yes I know the 2nd picture has the Mech Ready list into the MEchlab place... my photo shop skills blow... but I"m sure PGI could make it fit in that space... its not really used anyway in Mechlab, skills, or Home Tabs

Great idea! I would love a ready mech list. I'm also glad to see someone else's mech bay with many "Invalid" designs from stripping the equipment off. It makes me feel normal!

I guess the Select Mech option was the ready list replacement, though I never use it. I just go straight to the Mechlab.

I would actually love this added back into the game. Owning 80+ mechs (and it just keeps growing!) its a pain to scroll through every single time. An option to have 2-4 'Drop Ready' mechs to choose from would be a great idea to have right on the home screen to be able to pick 1 of your pre-set favorites and just launch right away. I have a 3 mechs that I would keep on this list permanently right now, maybe a 4th later but would probably end up just rotating it through different ones over time.

You could turn it vertical for the UI and have it fit there on the side in a 1x4 arrangement with no UI overlap issues.

Yah I agree a Vertical version would fit nicely there

4 Mechs in a dropdeck, 4 Mechs in a ready list...

That would greatly enhance my Community Warfare experience.

I would like to see it back as well. Face it 1.5 beat 2.0 for usefulness hands down.

Agreed. I like the visual upgrade of 2.0, however the technical aspects of 1.5 were much better.

An even better idea would be the ability to tag mechs with keywords and create custom list depending on how you feel.
I simple use could be "ECM Mechs, Brawlers, Snipers" etc.

Even it it could just be "ready" and "not ready" mechs (with no limit) then that would be cool too.

Yes that would be nice.

I'd even spend some MC for a 5th and 6th slot... Or a second/third drop deck for CW so you can react to attack/defend/kill-until-dead matches

Since the new UI has come out and its a little bit harder to select your mechs (2-4 more clicks + save function)... I"m bringing this thread back...

Please Russ... bring this back..
