I'd like Pgi to make launching into regular/cw similar to changing a mech in the tutorial. You walk up to your chosen mech and get taken up in an elevator just like in the tutorial. Technician & all. This would really drive home the scale & keep it fresh in mind just how big our mechs are.

Would you like this idea to be implemented? What other ideas do you have to make it feel like you're in a huge mech in a galactic war?

Sorry but this is just waste of prematch time, and we surely don't need more of it. Regardless of how cool and immersive this animation may be.

It could play during the initial search for a match. CW wait times can be pretty crazy.

MechWarrior 2 had a dropship launch movie when ever a new mission was started. It was awesome and I bet every player thought it was amazing. Then it would land when the mission was done. It was short but sweet.

Anything along those lines would be great.

Other movies would be great here and there to. Like a movie when approaching Solaris. It would make a great Blade Runner esq movie for sure. Movies on the approaches to other important places etc.

I really want to visit New Avalon some time. And to defend it!

Any improvements to the sim are welcome.

You mean the mech changing animation? Sure, but only while waiting for the match. The MM is looking for a game for you, the client shows you some neat little animation in the meantime. No additional time delays needed.
