Steam games have the advertisements in your steam anyhow.

Sigh stupid explorer used for this post so Quote didn't work, can't be bothered fixing it manually.

I like the new homescreen, but...

Pros:
+ One can finally twist the mech.
+ New Info fields
+ Advertisement (I start MWO without the launcher, so it's good to know if there's something new)

Cons:
- The Client doesn't save if Info fields are minimized or not
- Twist speed not the same like under camo spec /mechlab
- Border color of Info fieldss and advertisement too bright.

So after thinking about it, my guess is that the launcher will get 86'd when the game goes to Steam & that's why they added an in-game news popup.

I be willing to wager you are correct

Or make it a window like the pilot information that you can just ignore in the bottom-right of the home screen instead of forcing us to click on in to get to the game.

The info is there, you see it at a glance, you can click it if you want to know more, you don't have to click it if you don't care or already know.

Crude mockup:

That would look like a reasonable suggestion. But you know someone would complain about that too.
