Okay so if I remember correctly, the dev vid said something about messign around with stuff in the cockpit (don't quote me, cause I am a bit lazy atm for looking crap up xD ). So I was wondering, what kind of things would you people like to see be able to be customized in the cockpit?

I believe he was referring to modules. As talked about Here. I think they will change the appearance of the cockpit, albeit slightly.

okay so we have hula girl, fuzzy red dice, posters. What else? How about a mech calendar? Or changing the small screens in the cockpit with like different variants (no function change just having them look different) or even changing the colors for your HUD

Hmm like a screen in your mech that will show announcements and such? (like such and such planet has been taken, your faction has won this victory, planet being invaded, your friend has killed a Atlas) things like that?

I think a custom radio, that you can play epic, "I'm gonna wreck your ****" music or maybe some cool jazz.would be awesum.

Okay THAT is a awesome idea. Have like some speakers in the bottom corners of your mech's cockpit, a small screen that shows the song (like you can download yoru playlist into the game) and just rock out while playing.

I much rather run my media player in the background. Easier in the long run and I dont have to move files or make playlists for the game.

I wouldn't mind custom HUDs, hula girls.. the real-time screen idea some were saying..
I wouldn't mind an in-game media player either.. (if the G19 isn't supported directly that'll be my media control)

other ways around the no in-game player is to take your smartphone/ipod/whatever and plug a 3.5mm plug from that device to your computer's sound card as a "Line-In" and make it so you can always listen to it via sound settings... there you go.. your volume is controlled by the device, if its a phone you can answer calls and the call will play through your headphones/speakers (works for me.. may not for y'all).. I have all my songs on my internal 32GB card on my phone.. it also has pandora on it..

I also have my TS3 hooked up to my Samsung Galaxy Tab (TS3remote is the app name on the android market) that acts as a monitor so I can see who is talking and who joins in my channel and displays a list of whos in the channel (can use G19 to switch channels).

so basically.. if theres not an in-game media player.. i'm not going to cry.. since i'll probably be calling out tactics/screwing around with my group most of the time..



for in-mech things i'd like the original computer voice from MW3 (or at least one close to her)
i'd REALLY love to be able to move my HUD around so I can have it like MW4s HUD.. for the new guys its not so bad. but for us who've played MW3/4 since forever are gonna be trying to adjust.. if not then thats fine to.. i'm sure we'll adapt..

I think the ability simply to change hud colors would be nice... or language even.

Also, a holstered large caliber personal weapon of some sort. Or a samurai sword for a Kuritan mech.
That would be sick. A samurai sword next to your throttle.

I would love (post launch) customizable sounds...
(i'm going to catch so much hell from the community for this)

but I would love to have custom sounds for say, targeting/lock
(here it is.. i'm gonna get blasted by everyone for it)
but I love the Gundam/Zoids target sounds

How about a holovid dancer to take the edge off of loosing several tons of ammo after you are hit by an Atlas alpha strike...
