Ooh can the video show LRMs harmlessly impacting on the generator enclosure with a warning message about bringing the right weapon for the job?

put a picture on the loading screen with the generators highlighted neon yellow or some such ****. say "shoot the yellow part" under it. same for the gate gens. they already have a map legend, so whats a little more underneath it?

You know how in some games you get that preview of the objectives just before the match starts.
We could use that at the loading screen.
Kind of a 'mission briefing' moment before getting to the team screen and mech selection.

"Mechwarriors, your mission is to open the gates by taking down these generators"
<queue a little flyby with some arrows>
"Advance into the enemy base eliminating the turrets... "
<queue a walk through showing a few turrets popping up>
"...until you get to the generator bunkers for the defense shield on the cannon"
<queue a flyby to the cannon gens"
"Your target area is well protected, so make sure to shoot through the exposed gap to take them out."
<queue starwars death star trench run>
"Once these generators are destroyed you can disable the cannon by destroying the controls at the rear."
<queue a flyby to the back of the cannon and a big arrow pointing at it"

LOL . I have fun with this one (open gates). . not something I've done much, but enjoy running to the gate then shooting the doors.

shouldn't do it, but it's funny .. shouldn't do it if there was a newbie, they may think that is how it's done.

I'll still do it, I know it's not how you open the gates, and there was already plenty for killing the Gate Gen, and I'm just waiting to push in the gate
and I won't do it ,if it's a gate that needs Congo lined to open (Boreal vault)

maybe you can get a good screen shot, everyone shooting the gate, except one person shooting the Gate gen, with "IT" above the one, and "Not IT" at the other 11 just shooting the door

No way.

It is too funny.

It also tells you a lot about that player. The one who will figure this whole game out by himself.
