What if it was made so that there was a scaling of points earned for a kill based off of your weight compared to the weight of the target or something similar? Or maybe just vary the points earned for kills based off of the target's weight-class?

But then should it be scaled in a linear fashion? Or should the scaling be parabolic?

1. Targeting computer rework. Instead on size and weight have them increase heat generation. More advanced computer, more heat. A mechanic opposite of the skill in the tree node, which could be taken to mitigate taking the computer.

2. Chain Fire, Ghost Heat Lock. We have a button for Override Shutdown and one for Fire All. What about a button that would lock a fire group from firing with ghost heat. For example, an ER LL Dire Wolf, you could have all 6 of your ER LL on group one but it would only fire 2 every time you pulled the trigger (cooldown allowing).

3. Paired Drop Deck. An option to swap a mech after the map has been chosen. The mechs could be selected in pairs restricted to the same weight class. Have a heavy brawler and a heavy ranged mech paired.

I have noticed lights like the Wolfhound, Firestarter, and Commando being able to eat 60+ alphas with ease. I give it up to a light pilot who out maneuvers me and takes me down, but when they peek with impunity and easily take alpha after alpha from an assault it feels stupid. An light should be leery of an assault with 2 AC20 and 2 Snub PPC. I know it is a hitbox issue. If they were sitting perfectly still they would be toast, but ANY amount of movement seems to be 50% or more damage reduction. They don't really need plot armor.

Could we get a notification at the end of a match for when we score a Headshot? It is quite annoying to have to check my Achievements counter every game I believe I may have gotten one. Even if it is a 0 point line, I would love such a feature.

[ESC 907]

Most wanted feature? How about something to dissuade all of these mentally deficient ERLL-boats? Who else is tired of all of the ERLL boating DWF-Cs?

Perhaps there can be something like a passive heat-creep that happens when a mech has more than 4xLarge Lasers? Boating 4xERLLs/LPLs/LLs? Your mech cooks itself whenever it is powered on and energizing the weapons.

OR, make an inherent negative quirk to cooldowns under the same conditions? Something like a 1000% increase to cooldowns sounds like a fair incentive to avoid these builds.

I wish I could choose the map I entered. I need this.

More game modes, koth, ctf, etc. Game modes with respawn. A game mode where damage=points and team with most points at end of timer or hits set point score wins. I think it was called destruction back on mw4. If you added respawn it would work for that game mode or a ctf game.

Mechanically, this makes sense. Why would a propulsion system fueled by a reactor not refill in the air? GAME-mechanics-wise though, it may complicate things... I would like to see this implemented though, just to see what becomes of it. Perhaps it could be put into an event to test?

[KrayzieKnight]

more game types. this game needs advertising.

[Cizjut]

Smoke canopy launchers/Blinding darts
It's been years since this idea was thrown around the forums back then, but still the sniper and laser vomit builds are a thing so

Why don't add support light mech equipment that launch blinding types of stuff like smoke or flash darts, that stick to enemy chassis nad blinds their vision

Or heat decoys, as if, if your'e looking through thermal vision it looks like an enemy mech, or just smoke that blinds heat vision with, you know, excess of heat

And night and normal vision can be countered with either flashbang or smoke screens. There, lights are worth a ♥♥♥♥, and snipers have to rely on radar pinpointing/teammates NARC'ing

Yes, YES, YES!!! Тhis game NEEDS new game modes, and needs respawn system even more. Dying from a light mech that casually took 60 damage in a face and then MG-spammed you only to watch how other people play for the rest of the round is not fun at all, gamemodes with respawn system (basically infinite drops from the dropdeck events) would make MWO SO much more enjoyable. And CТF sounds like a no-brainer to add to the gamemode pool, its a very simple in concept yet very teamwork-related gamemode, i would love to see it in game.

While CTF sounds great, I am concerned at how unfairly advantageous Stealth Lights would be in such a gamemode. Perhaps the flag would have to be equipped with Counter ECM?

There's nowhere to run.

12v12 team deathmatch
1v24 deathmatch
small arenas

3xspeed
3xarmor

all mechs.

[ESC 907]

How about adding an additional win condition for Incursion? If one team wins Attrition and has more than 2 'Mechs, they win. Then we do not run the risk of the scrum happening towards the winning team's side and them only being left with Assaults to march all the way into op4's base to secure the win while the losing team has to spectate the whole time.

Could we PLEASE get Solid-Slug rounds for the Clan-LB-Xs?

[Alandios]

With mechs like the Hatchetman and Stone Rhino being put in, the game really could do with a punching/melee mechanic.

As for future mechs, I'd like to see the Turkina be developed. Since the game is set in the Clan Invasion, this unit would only just be entering production.

real 360 radar so you don't ;lose lock when someone goes behind you.

Atms to do 2 damage within 0-90 then up to the 2.5 at the next and then down to 15 at the long range bracket. Atm's have less tubes than any other missile launcher.
