I don't know if this has been previously suggested or not, but here it goes:

So, I was thinking that the way cammo works in MWO is rudimentary at best..

There is very little space for creativity and making your mech truly unique among all the other mechs out there.. not to mention that cammo and paint are truly expensive..

So here's my idea:

Split the cammo's up into paint and cammo elements.. using the cammo system like the one in the newer Need For Speed games.. (Most Wanted, Carbon, Shift and the like)

This system uses base paint, and vinils or "cammo" that goes over it, and can be stretched, enlarged, rotated, colored (in stages, depending on the cammo itself), skewed, flipped, mirrored, shrinked and such.

The cammo itself is made up of base elements, such as lines, stars, circles, sculls, flames, tribals, and all bunch of such graphic elements.

The player can then stack these, modify and color them, as he chooses.

This makes for some truly interesting and unique combinations.

My suggestion would then be to make the base paints purchasable for cbills, and the cammo for MC..

Also, make shure that ALL mechs in the game have a BASE CAMMO.. so that paint-only options still exist..

Right now, you can color a whole IS mech in a base paint, but a CLAN mech only gets a few stripes of base color.. that is totally unfair.

I know implementing this system would be a lot of work, so I understand if it gets pushed back a bit.. but keep it on the back burner for after more important things are done..

Or if you have the time.. do it now..

You know.. whatever...

Please?
