The title says it all if you have the dedication and fortitude to get 1,000,000 XP on a mech there should be something.

It would help if there was a 3rd module worth taking...

TIG is the third one I'd consider, but rarely useful.

I say, rework the module system a little bit more. Add more fine distinction via categories: mobility, sensor, utility, etc.

Based on the stock build for a given mech, assign a number of module slots of each type (scouts get more sensor slots, fire support get more weapon slots, cavalry mechs get more mobility slots, and so on).

If you want an unlock specifically for high xp totals, do one that lets you double your gxp gains on that mech.

Advanced Sensor Range or Advanced Targeting Decay for bonus c-bills.

if it was an open slot, like the others, then Weapon Modules? I admit, I don't tend to boat a solitary weapon, so, it appeals to me.

Also some mechs still have less slots than others.

Also, how about if the "Million Mile Module" Was open for Mech, Weapon or Consumable? (Coolshot9x9, Imp Air, UAV? could be good for some PewPew Lights, in particular)

I'd rather just get a +10% C-bill bonus or LP-bonus or something like that. Ideally, there should be a special camo pattern unlock at 1 million XP. That would be pretty boss.

What if your favorite mech is already a Hero mech and gets +30% C Bill Bonus however?

I love my Misery so much that I have 2 of them (Misery was first released in May 2013 and I WAITED until Jan/Feb 2014 for the FIRST 1/2 off SALE so technically it only costed me 17 bucks. Later on when it went half off again I grabbed another one so I can have 2 different builds on it.

If it was not for this Mech I doubt I would still be playing this game.

Hill climb is essential on lights without JJ. More useful than seismic IMO since my lights don't really stand still that often.

PGI really can (and should) buff all these underperforming modules so that they're more competitive with the very powerful Seismic Sensor and Radar Deprivation modules.

I would add an IFF jammer module, it would remove the red triangle like ECM but without the other ECM features.

Bonus module only, 1 million XP required.

+cbill boost.

module slots will inevitably work to unbalance the game further.

How about: that chassis is retired (you can no longer play it), and you get a free mech of your choice.

Basically if you have a million xps in a single chassis, then PGI is not doing its job very well, their business model to encourage you to buy new mechs, not play the same mech over and over.

I've owned almost all of them, and have broken 1 million XP on my HBK-4G and JM6-DD

And you try to retire my Founder's HBK; we're gonna have issues.

Agree with c-bill boost for the mech, something like 20-25%.

If you're playing a mech for that long, it's way past the point of it being your main mech.

How to get to 1million XP (any combination of these):

a. Play alot on the same mech
b. Don't spend MC to convert XP to GXP
c. Don't buy new mechs because you only play one mech
d. Don't experiment because you only play the same mech

A 10% C-bill bonus would be fine but anything bigger, like an extra module slot, would not be fine.
