Since i don´t think the german suggestion thread is moderated anymore (or ever was) i´ll try my luck here.

After 5 years PGI is finally thinking about offering more than 4 drop decks (in my opinion stop thinking, just do it).
If you do so we will need 2 new options for the drop decks.
1st: An export/import function. So if people are switching from Clan to IS and back they don´t have to assemble their 12 drop decks everytime (yes i expect 12 drop decks minimum).
2nd: The option to give every drop deck a name (Dakka, Brawl, Lurms, etc.).

the ability to turn off decals and other objects.. it needs to be a thing for client side so that people can actually play solaris city / and river city to a certain extent with less fps issues and objects in the game to enjoy the game.. ideally also for pgi to fix invisible walls by putting texture or something to work with

Ya, they need to implement this asap.. btw you are able to label the decks now by clicking on 'manage drop decks' and clicking on the name on the left.

MOAR MAPS!!! we should have 3 maps for every environment minimum. we already have 3 urban maps (river, crimson, solaris) and three arctic (do i really need to list them?) i think adding another woodland map (in addition to forest colony and viridian), two more set in a vacuum, another "hell world" map to fill out TT and caustic, and another desert map (in addition to canyon and TD) i feel like alien environments are well represented with rubelite, grim and mining complex. thats literally 4 (FOUR!!!) maps. i'll learn code and help if i have to. thats the NUMBER ONE complaint i have. not enough diversity in map choices.

*EDIT*
perhaps PGI should add a "custom map" function in the custom lobby and release a map editor to the community. maps that stand out could be adopted as game official and added to QP/FP rotation. they wouldnt be the first dev team to take advantage of their player base for ideas/testing.

Really need more game modes that are for smaller size lances, like scouting missions but something i can take my heavy and assault mechs on. Its getting harder and harder to find a quickplay match when faction play events dont line up with mech types.

[Jaime-Wolf]

Can we please start asking to get rid of the heat spike. Ita not canon or in battletech at all. We need to get this removed please.

[Jaime-Wolf]

Can you pleaae make the IS UAC/5 burst fire. Through out the mechwarrior games the uac 5 for the IS has been burst fire. I have just test both mechwarrior 3 and mechwarrior 4 mercs. The IS UAC5 is infact burst fire instead of single shot. And what i mean by burst fire is like all the other UAC's it fires multiple rounds per click instead of just one. Please change this.

Your blocking system is a joke. I play with the same clowns every match. I hardly find someone from my friends list.

Please try to make an option to buy a recorded match. Nobody has time to hit the record button in the heat of the battle.

[Calebos]

Get some developers pgi. You are real parody.

[Jaime-Wolf]

The annihilators are not capable mechs anymore. You took a slow mech which requires its armor to protect it when caught out in the open to be able to survive a slow walk to any cover that is tall enought and wide enough to protect it and made it so that any clan mech with the proper DPS can take one down rather quickly. And I dont know if you took the fact that in quick play your not going up against just clan mechs but a mix of Inner sphere and clanners. So not only does the annihilator have to worry about the DPS of clan weapons. But also it has to try and avoid its own weapon types. So please fix the armor of the annhilator.

[Jaime-Wolf]

And one more thing can you please add these mechs to the clans.

Annihilator C
A variant of the Annihilator that was built using only Clan technology and used exclusively by the Wolf's Dragoons, the Annihilator C increased its maximum speed to 54 kph. The 'Mech was armed with four Ultra Autocannon/10s and four ER Medium Lasers. The Ultra Autocannon/10s allowed the 'Mech to fire at twice the rate of a normal autocannon, allowing it to put as much fire out as if it was carrying eight regular autocannons.

Annihilator C2
pparently based on the ANH-1G, this variant only uses Clan technology. The 'Mech's top speed was 32.4 km/h and the armor protection was reduced, but four Gauss Rifles backed up by an ER PPC in the center torso and a head mounted ER Small Laser provided withering firepower for defensive engagements. Ten tons of ammunition kept the Gauss Rifles fed through the longest engagements. To make room for all these weapons, the C2 used an Endo Steel internal structure. Integrated CASE protected the arms and torsos from Gauss Rifle explosions.

[Jaime-Wolf]

I know I'm posting a lot but can we also get X pulse lasers as well if they are in the right time line that is.

Just a few suggestions..... for the cockpit. 1) Hanging potato. 2) Loaded baked potato for dash. 3) Mr. and or Mrs. Potato head for dash.(maybe dance when you make a kill). 4) Potato gun for dash............ ok you get the idea and theme. I would spend MC on any and or all of those in a heartbeat....... Hummmmm wait....one more.5) Steaming hot mashed potatoes with a plat of butter on top for the dash...... ok... the rest is up to you... thank you for your time. I'm hungry now.

Serious note: Kidding aside, these are legitimate suggestions, and I WOULD spend MC on them.

Thank you.

OHHH, and thinking more...maybe some... Bumper stickers, like, "My other mech is an Atlas" or "My kid cored your King Crab"...."No gas no Asp"..... "Keep on Puggin'" , you get the idea. "If you can read this, your Piranha sucks.", and so on....

So are Clan HAGs, ER-pulse lasers and lots of other goodies. When was the last tech level advance, a year and a half ago? I understand MW5 is the labour magnet these days, but this game needs to be progressing as well, quiaff?

Solo QP is ruined.
PGI buffed lurms, again, and only god knows why. 50% of the players now use lurms, so half of the team is staying behind not sharing armor. It´s quite a ****** time for brawlers.
Matchmaking never really worked, but with every good player leaving MWO it gets worse. I´m constantly stuck with idiots who can´t play in a team.
2 options, nerf lurms or program a working matchmaker for Solo QP based on ELO instead of this outdated TIER system. I know people with an average of 100 damage who are TIER 1, just because they played MWO long enough. And god knows i don´t want them in my team.
So if you are working on a new matchmaker for FP make sure you do one for QP as well.
I just had a match on Mining, died first and made top damage in my team. How is that even possible?

Please pass the salt.

QP is fine. I am Tier 2 and play quite a few Tier 1 matches. Plenty are brawly.

They had Elo, and that didn't work. Now we have tiers.

LRMs needed buffs because they were relegated to the ash heap in the higher tiers. Fights were predictable. Charge to F7 and duke it out. LRMs make ECM and cover more necessary.

Also talk on comms. The more you do so, the more your teammates will. This will help with coordination.

That´s where you are wrong.

Lurms never needed a buff, like MWO never needed Artistrikes.
Don´t get me wrong, i don´t have a problem with LRMs in the right hands, the hands of a skilled player that is. I can easily do more than 1.000 damage with lurms in QP. My problem is noobs playing "easy" lurms (fire and forget), staying way behind the team, sharing no armor and leaving the game with 200 damage or less.

We don't need the power creep that HAGs, X-pulse, and ER Pulse would bring.

[Lionheart2012]

What we could use is a few more Mech variants, and although not in the timeline, I would suggest that many of the Project Phoenix mechs would be viable, based on the technology base in the game. Largely, this could be additional variants of existing mechs:

• LCT-1V2
  
• LCT-5M
  
• LCT-5T
  
• LCT-5V
  
• SHD-5D
  
• SHD-7M
  
• SHD-7CS
  
• SHD-11CS
  
• MAD-5R
  
• MAD-5T
  
• MAD-7D
  
• MAD-7M
  
• MAD-9S (<----Please!)

If a new mech is needed, then perhaps the Longbow:

• LGB-7Q
  
• LGB-7V
  
• LGB-12C
  
• LGB-12R

Can I see a quote of you objecting to the power creep that heavy cheese rifle and stealth armour have brought? I guess not.
