For me, Its the locust and the raven.

both offer very good forwards vision, and towards both sides. Locust has more glass around you giving you access to views of whats massively above you, (great for running the low ground and for just having a good look. while the raven does not have that, it also has a bit less front in the way of forwards bars, it also has better placement of monitors. both are great though from looks point of view.

So which ones do you guys like the most?

The Urby. Speedometer that reads 'Slow' and 'Less Slow', tanks for nitrous oxide and caffeine, broken monitors with repair slips on them, and some kind of mysterious box with radioactivity symbols and a 'do not open' sign...that is taped shut.

EBJ offers the best view.

Catapult cockpit is always nostalgic. Feels like home.

Practicality? Lolcust.

Awesome? Awesome. Or Maybe King Crab. The Dire Whale also makes me feel like I'm looking out of a Star Destroyer, though.

Urbie, for all the wonderful reasons listed above. It's got character heaped on character.

The locust feels really claustraphobic. Like being locked in the roll cage of a drag car.

Personally I really like the Cicada cockpit. Wide and mostly unobstructed views. The layout of the internals instruments feels really well designed. Feels like a high-tech mech that's been well maintained.

The Cataphract is really good too, but might be a little too open.

Cataphract. Most unique view, very cool design.

It has a "mini podium" in the center and giant window in front of you.

Either the Blackjack or the Shadow Cat. They offer phenomenal fields of view and have a nice-looking console layout.

I always liked the Raven's cockpit. I always thought it looked like you were in the cockpit of a jet fighter. I also feel the same about the Panther's cockpit as well.

Although not fighter plane like, I do like the Vindicator's cockpit too.

Lastly, the Urbanmech's cockpit is probably the most amusing/unique. It looks janky compared to other cockpits and it is littered with duct tape and a repair ticket here or there. It was made to be funny and comical (unlike other cockpits) and therefore has a very cool feel to it.

I love Catapults, but was never big on the cockpit of it. it's ok but not my favorite.

I do like the Cauldron Born's (Ebon Jaguar's) cockpit, If forgot about that one. Did anyone ever notice that the "dashboard" layout of the Ebon Jaguar mimics the torso layout? There are two modules or components protruding from the top of the dashboard that mimics the high mount weapon hardpoints of the chassis.
