Daily Missions

http://mwomercs.com/...daily-missions/

It would be REALLY nice if PGI implemented some sort of daily mission system, similar to what most other free-to-play games have. I believe it would give players incentive to play more frequently. What each mission would give could vary. C-Bills seems like the obvious choice, however it's possible it may negate the need for premium time which would hurt PGI financially. A small amount might be okay though. Another option may be weapons and/or modules. Being able to earn modules like Radar Dep and Improved Gyros (without needing to spend 6,000,000 C-Bills) would make our time in-game so much better. Consumables would also be a useful reward. They are already widely used, so earning them rather than buying them would save players C-Bills.

Here are some examples of possibly daily missions...

- "Win 3 matches in Skirmish mode ($250,000 C-Bills)"
- "Win 10 matches in Conquest mode (Module - Radar Deprivation)"
- "Win 5 matches in Assault mode (Consumable - Priority Artillery Strike)"

There could be a button at the bottom right next to the friend list button. Click it and the Daily Missions window pups up. All current missions are shown with the tracker next to them. For example, "Win 3 matches in Skirmish Mode - 1/3". A player receives a new daily every day and can stack up to three (or five) at a time. Once you complete a mission, a slot opens up so you can receive a new one the next day.

personally something id love to see on all fps games when u get hit on a normal fps you get a red marker saying your been shot from here how about a white marker comes on the screen when ur walking backwards into a building ect

CW losers get loyalty points as well altho not as much

CW if you dont get a match for 30mins+ it counts as a victory or part of and u get some loyalty points

CW palnets giving u an income say each planet gives everyone in the unit that owns it 100-500k c-bills a day and 500+ loyalty points

invisible walls are everywhere

clan tech on IS mechs but to keep ballance have say a alteration like artemis ect that allows u to equip only clan weapons and not is

destroyable terrain buildings that if 100_lrms hit it the side blows off so you cant hide behind it ect

crouch for mechs so when ur top is getting clipped over terrain u can duck even if u cant move while ducking

tanks/vehicles helicopters to join some battles espec in clan wars

npc missions and additions to missions both as drops and solo/co-op having a 12v12 with 2-4npc mechs to guard bases or assist in the fight maybe helicopters/tanks join in make some maps just hectic full on warfare maybe a mechbay in the center of maps as a contest point even have it have say 600-1000hp to destroy it so if 1 team has control of it the other can stop them having the adv by destroying it 600dmg is only 50 per team member

river city trees falling down to laser fire and not blocking it same with lamp posts

low grav planets where mechs move faster and jump high maybe take dmg like mask for going to fast


random mechs sales to keep balance of mechs being played not enough lights lets put the spider on 25% off for a week not enough assaults lets sale the awesome or atlas for a week

turrets on bases back as cap wars have returned

remove the stupid amount of ghost heat from c uac 20's 40% heat from 1 shot not double tapped is silly 20-30% would make it more viable edit this is 40% heat from 2

this will never happen but remove the charge from gauss

altering the rule of 3 not 100% how it works atm but have it try to use 3 of each failing that only adjacent classes replace missing ones so mediums can replace lights lights and heavy can replace mediums heavy by medium/assault then assaults by heavy's

Solaris tournament/ranking system.

This or a One on One up to Lance on Lance Arena system on Solaris to match the canon of the Warrior - En Garde book. An easy way to start this up is to either use the existing map and reducing the size of the boundaries for smaller groups of play until map specifically made for the arena can be implemented. Also make them function like a regular PUG drops and CW drops allowing one to gain experience and C-bills.

Adding Kill Assists/Kill Most Damage Assists into the stats profile.
The current numbers on stat profile doesn't encourage teamwork but draws more focus on kill death ratios and damage done. I believe that's the biggest problem with the current state of solo drop missions. By changing this might get more people to work as a team instead of individuals working for personal numbers.

AI units of some type in CW like IS forces get some small to medium sized tanks and clans get groups of elementals. If possible i know there are issues with game balance as is but attack mode in CW could use something to shake it up the AI units would get rid of cheesy builds that cant afford to waste ammo on things like tanks or don't have a streak launcher for elementals it would enhance build diversity and enhance TTK also if the AI units have rewards attached it could enhance the player experience by giving cbills everyone could use a slight buff to cbill earnings but this would make it skill based to a degree rather than an across the board buff.

Radar passive and active mode!
This feature will make game MUCH more tactical!
Radar mode selection was available in lot of Battletech based games.
Active mode- you detect enemies and you are visible for enemy radar.
Passive mode- you rely only on visual detection of enemy and your mech is invisible for radar.

I want account wide camo unlocks. Or at the very least change the name in mech lab from "unlock" to "unlock for _____".

Give me a price. Seriously, name a semi-reasonable price and I'll buy 5!

From the top of my head:

• Pre-saved configurations in the mechlab
  
• Stock Mech / 3025 mode
  
• A better tutorial (heard there is work done on that end already)
  
• Physical effects (examples: water resistence while moving through it, steam when a laser hits water, mech knockdown through damage)
  
• Damage textures for buildings (they don't need to actually crumble, they just have to look different)
  
• A training mode! Just like the tutorial but with another player guiding you through the steps (a form of private match), No rewards, no stats, the weapons of the trainer are offline (so the mode can't be abused for anything else).

There might be more, but those come up often. Not in this exact form, but similar.

Along with a training mode can we please get a class certification mode? In order to play the trial mechs of a certain weight class you need to take all the training classes and pass a game play test. Getting sick of new players in assaults/heavies using regular matches as a time to figure out how to play, often by themselves in the corner.

You forgot a system for tracking match stats in game after you have moved on.

4vs4 matches

This emphasizes in teamcomp since it's a smaller fight, tuning mechs for versatility or a specialized strategy with or without premades

Maybe a 3 live stock for each player with 15 mins of respawn and alternate capping victory condition

The only problem i see is stacking the team with lights or assaults only or 4 of the same mech, imagine 4 firestarters running around like madmen pew pewing people. Optimally should be 1 of each class

I want the displays in my cockpit to say something meaningful besides Auto-Detect [no] They don't need a game play function per say but it be nice if one of the displays showed a camera view of behind me.

Hey all!

I just noticed something and I am puzzled.

Inner-sphere

Tag takes up 1 slot at 1 ton.

NARC takes up 2 slots at 3 tons.

SRM 2 takes up 1 slot at 1 ton.

SSRM 2 takes up 1 slot at 1 1/2 tons

SRM 4 takes up 1 slot at 2 tons.

SRM 6 takes up 2 slots at 3 tons.

LRM 5 takes up 1 slot at 2 tons.

The NARC does not have tracking, is a single shot. Yet it takes up the same space as an SRM 6.
Why is the NARC so heavy???

Should not the NARC's weight be 1 ton or 1 1/2 ton at the most?

MY Most Wanted Feature would be that the Tag become a Miscellaneous Equipped item so as to not take up an energy hard point and NARC weight dropped to 1 ton. Ideally the NARC would be also a Miscellaneous Equipped item since it and Tag both fall in between the area of weapon and sensor.

Tournament scores on after match player score screen. minor but important. Persistent leaderboardS based on linear regression statistical analysis. Cw planets ownership that effects which mechs can be used. ...i could go on....

Daily Missions [Alternative]!

A much complete and complex way of making daily missions work (more ideas might come up).

Still a work in progress, any new idea helps.

Does new ways to customize our mechs count as a feature? I'd like to see things like Armored components, Modular armor and more armor types. I know there's more down the line but it'd be a good boost to gameplay if it wasn't just "See how many weapons you can stuff in".

The short version is, give us defensive options when building mechs.

Hey MechWarriors!

(Please make new threads so I can see your suggestion's popularity!)

So let's keep this sub-forum active together and post your MWO Features wish-list here!

So... suggestions are being made like crazy on this thread but those two lines are misleading

Thanks for taking this on Tina

Ghost heat for the cERLL to start at 4, not 3... I really would like to have a good competition between 2 cLPLs and 3 cERLL for the same weight, but with 10 more heat, much larger burn time and requiring more energy slots.

Heck, you can even implement a ghost damage rule: firing 3ERLL at the same time reduces damage output by 10%.

Anything really to make a triple cERLL Shadowcat ghost-heat free.
