I think it really limits the options of what they can even sell us.
But it's still a good idea and i'd buy, probably anything they throw at us.

Hm, I didn't think about the Catapult noses. That's a good point. But I still want it, I want 5 different Catapult noses and I'll buy all of them and paint up my Catapult to match whatever colours their noses have. I want it. I need it.

What if the nose has several colors?
Might have to put it on a Jester

- PGI is interested in the possibility of selling cosmetic custom geometry upgrades.
- Every bit of cosmetic custom geometry (CCG) will come with a single set of texture, such as the chrome-painted skull of the AS7-S(L). In other words, it won't change colour based on how you paint the rest of your mech or what camo patterns you have.
- It needs to be relatively simple. To sell a completely redesigned retro-Timber Wolf based on old artwork is too much work. We're talking about simple upgrades, like replacing a head, a shoulderpad, an armour plate or a hand.
- PGI needs to know what kind of upgrades we're interested in, and what mechs they should handle first.

Yeah, to be honest, I wouldn't be too thrilled to see a lot of horns, spikes and chains. Though I'm sure the hardcore Warhammer 40,000 fans would be thrilled, I feel like it's a bit inappropriate for Battletech in 3050. Maybe something to consider for the Dark Age.

Dennis just asked that we make a poll, he didn't really specify which forum it should be in. He's not exactly a prolific poster, so there's a fair chance he doesn't know the ins and outs of the forum, where people can make polls, etc.
I can hardly criticize anyone for being a cynic at this point, but I figured it was worth a shot. If everything fails, I'll just become a fully devoted bittervet, and I suppose I'll spend a little less money on cosmetic upgrades for digital robots that I'm renting, for the sake of showing off to strangers on the interwebs.

Do you realize how much money I would drop to make my Banshee look like an ominous demon that guards the gates to hell?
They're already some of the scariest mechs you can run into (barring twin gauss). I know, I drive one habitually.

Just imagine the $$$ they would make if they offered the old, larger PPCs on the K2.
Forget chrome, shoulders pads, spikes, etc. The money people would pay to select from a variety of gun barrels and laser emitters......
BTW, sorry if someone already suggested this, I didn't read the whole thing.
