If the K9 is going to be getting functional lightbars, can the SIB get some too? I hope they're toggleable and not just flashed when you get a kill, because that would suck.

MWO needs the buddy cop pair to be fully functional and ready to arrest anyone that goes over the speed limit.

Hmmm... I would be cool with this.

Is it? Never read it will, even after some asked for this...

Pretty sure someone at PGI tweeted that they will function, just they haven't decided on how they'll function yet?

Really? This is risky, many will then ask for Atlas eye to glow, toggable with same key as usual for doors, claws, etc.

And I don't see why that's a bad thing? I REALLY want the Atlas eye glow back.

I would like the glowing Atlas eyes back and the light bar on the K9 to be bound to an action key (like the missile door key). I also like the idea of some retro-active lights being placed on the St. Ives Blue. Maybe not a light bar per se, but the small strobe lights like the kind hidden in police car grille openings. :)

Never said it's bad, it's just that glowing eye was requested so many times and they refused to do it so if police lights happen all those like you wishing for glowing eye will charge again and pretty sure they don't want to deal with this again.

Tried to reply the next minute you posted but forums went offline. :-(

That is possible, but it also might be different this time.

Before, the Atlas glowing eyes would have been the only instance of toggle-able lights. Now that we have the light bar on the K9, and it looks like it will function, there might be more reason to implement the glowing eyes (with a toggle key) on the Atlas as well.

I want a color/camo option with glowing neon lights that says "Shoot me".
Not even joking, ultimate cheese tbh

Me too - It'd be nice to see them coming from across the map again. Posted Image

I don't think it's cheese. I think all our meta overlords should gladly wear that since they shouldn't need to be sneaky to win anyhow! :P (and tbh, glowing mechs rolling over you looks cooler, especially in the heavy particle atmosphere we have most maps!)
