OK.. I know this is not likely.. let's just say it would be nice to have on a wish list...
I know I'm not the only one with 250-300 odd mechs. I'm also not the only one who doesn't like the idea of all the time spend on specking the new mess eating away at paid for premium time.

Dream time idea: When the client is in the skill tree, premium time pauses.
Not going to happen, I know... and I'm looking at taking a break for a bit anyhow, but if that were done, and not just for my sake.. that would be nice.

Just going to leave this here.... good luck all and I hope you keep finding fun in the game. :)

Already suggested something like this years ago..... Change premium time to operate on match time rather than just continuous running time. IE: Only count premium time while the player is in a match.

Understandably, the player would get less hours per MC, but if that means the player can do everything out-of-match without time pressure, that solves the skill tree issue, plus the general issue of players feeling cheated out of premium time when they're not in a match.

Sure, there is server overhead when not in a match, but it's negligible compared to in-game server load. Just charge a little more MC per hour to make the difference.

I like that idea, but also understand that, that would be bad for their revenue. I"m ok choosing not to play and my time to tick away- in the end, that's my decision. When I'm having to use my game time to click through a mess they thrust on us? Not so happy about that arrangement.
