Possibly a module that allows to see under your mech.

Allows for users to use Jump jets and land on another mechs upper body / head, and damage it. The higher the jump jet and weight the more damage.

A jump jet module to buff jets is my proposal, more dfa tactics.

We already have it...its called 3rd person view... and we already damage the mech's upper surface if we collide on another mech. I've put foot to head before.

That is close I guess, is that easy to line up in 3rd? And can you kill someone with it?

You would need to restore collisions between mechs, maybe without all the knockdowns, but with DFA's to the cockpit.

No. Maybe if the cockpit had already taken major damage, but it's not actually enabled.

Don't need a mod to use DFA, just have to have JJs.
and the big the mech the more damage it does.
its a great Tactic to use when you have no weapons left and only one chance to do damage to the enemy.
I remember from the TT game yesterday, had a King Crab with Jump Jets, no left arm, my Trio of ER Medium Lasers destroyed, and ammo gone for my LRM 5s and AC 10s(Smart ammunition) & jumped on the back of a Dire Wolf with it from a higher elevation and the DW was no more, lol.

In other words DFA needs to be in the game.
