Do something in the lobby to discuss tactics with your team the one you have now is a list of lance mates. very boring and useless.
Lets change the room into a war room where the leader can rotate the map and direct lances this gives everyone a chance to learn tactics and newbies get to meet experienced pilots who can help them with there roles based on the type of mech they are piloting. And it’s a great way to recruit new members.
So the map pops up first and we all see it in the center of our screen and discuss tactics at a lance table where we can talk about it and the captain can draw on it to discuss tactics.

Once the commander is done lance leaders can go over there game plan. To be honest we can probably add time to the waiting of the round because no one will realize how much time has past anyways so it wont seem so long.
If people want they can opt out of this room before they drop into it and go do a quick play they may still drop with the same group but they wont see the tactics given by there team mates.

Next add Merc contracts. Bid on map drops where the winners of the previous match stay on that map and a new group of 12 mechs need to try and take them out. It’s a kind of king of the hill match mode. The longer they are in control of a certain territory or map the higher the cbill merc contract gets.The team that wins respawns and gets to stay on that map.
everyone i know in game would pay cbills to enter this match to try and unseat the current champions. if someone on the winning team quits he is replaced but only shares in the winnings he was a part of.

On the home screen you can have in game updates kind of like the ones you have for the community warfare games where your looking for attackers or defenders these updates talk about the map that’s being dominated which will get people lining up to try and take out the occupying team. There can be added options like salvage bonuses where a mech part is found in the match and can be rolled on by the winning team members, the highest roll wins the mech part. It Could be an engine, a laser, a machine gun anything. Maybe it can be only be used by a certain chassis so it limits who can roll for it.

just few ideas to make the game more interesting.

Definitely liking the king of the hill match mode. Down side is solid groups may reign supreme and solo players won't be able to get in on the action. A possible alternative would be full-team side and small group side. The full-team would be for groups of 12 while the other mode might limit groups to 4 or less to let solo players at least band together to form a misfit toys team.
