Why does mech select reset to original default view? It should remember my last view setting. Why should I keep having to change my preferred view? Please let us set our default view.

I believe this is slated for the next patch.

Expand the "mech details" tab, it shows the modules there.

That's in the Mech Stats tab now... in the Hardpoints tab... over the CT diagram. Yeah, tedious.

They could really show more info by decreasing the size of things like fonts and... well everything. Compacting. etc. All without the need of adding more expandable tabs/lists.

It seems a bit trickier to find the loadout info for the mechs now too.

If you hover over the mech, you get some info, but that box disappears if you select the mech. Then, you get other info on a little "Mech Stats" box in the lower right hand corner. If you happen to notice there is a little corner you can click to expand it, you get some more information.

I wish they would just pick one place, and put one box with all the info in an easier to read format. If they put the info we are all most likely looking for (tonnage, speed, weapons, modules) in a prominent spot where we don't have to search for it, that would be heavenly.

Someone's got "UI fever" I think. When you've got all these cool little UI widgets in your toolbox, you get tempted to find a reason to use them, even if the UI would work more smoothly without them.

After edits when your actual camo shows up the mech icons look washed out. They looked better prior to editing when the background is darker and the mech's picture crisper. Please darken and/or add contrast.

I like the sorting features but please do add "engine equipped" on the Mech stats displays/pop ups. Thank you.

I just noted other player say to edit gamma before edits..... is there a recommended setting? They still look lighter than the mech labs.

I love the new mech select.....my one main suggestion is downsize it a notch...a tad too big as a whole...picture and frame wise..

for the mods thing...I suggest least putting a pop up or something here with the rest of the info as artemis and ecm and active probe...same could be done for cockpit items.... included a pic with spot circled (sorry im newb and old and picture adding is beyond me on the forums) so here is a link..

could even give mechs with cockpit and mods on them a green or red frame outline just to indicate something is there if looking...

I'm overall pretty dang impressed with it now, but I do concur that the "thumbnails" are a bit large. Not super duper too large, just a tad large. But if this is my only gripe, I'd say I could live with this happily.
