Did we lose the ability to rename out mechs again? I missed it

Kinda wish we had the option to see other people's mech names.
Obviously, this could be abused to convey swear words and other offensive slurs, hence I said "the option to".

That'd be nice to have the option to see other people's mech names. Although, i doubt most of you would get my references such as: Kurumin, Tohka, Zafkiel, Holo, Ram/Rem, W1llow (there's only one other person that would know this one), etc.

But however, it'd be hilarious to get reactions from my Dual Gauss MDD-C which i named "Hi I Got You" and my for giggles Oxide "Hate Myself".

I named my 1V locust "Wildcat". Anyone who sees the weapons it carries will know why I named it Wildcat.

You wouldn't happen to have a better drop rate for The Sham would you? All my mechs need the option to ShamFleet.

Brilliant!! Is doctor Zed a Boomcat (seems to fit with his subtle approach to medicine) and what load-out does Face Mc Shooty use? Posted Image

K2 is indeed a Boomcat. Face McShooty used SRMs and Lasers.

If we ever get quad mechs you can have a Vermivorous the Invincible.

I mostly just name my mechs with the loadout, like "Gauss-2ERPPC" or "4SRM6-6SPL." When you have 7 Warhammers or 6 Timberwolves you need to keep things straight, especially when you've got just one minute to edit your dropdeck in FW.

My Phoenix locust is the only mech i've named purposefully.

P.S. It would help if the website didn't log me out when I press "Post".
