The Urbie's is naturally the best, but the Night Gyr's giant rolling arm-eating OSHA nightmare cylinders on either side of the cockpit are hilarious. I could easily see Clanners losing hands if they happen to stretch the wrong way in one of those.

King Crab (I've never figured out what those circle things do, but they are mesmerizing.)
Night Gyr (The rolling pins of doom also make me wonder why they're there)
UrbanMech - I feel the love in this cockpit. seems homey
Awesome - Don't know why, just do.

I think my favorite cockpit is still the Raven. The Raven just makes you feel like you are in a fighter cockpit. To me, no other cockpit has quite as sleek of an appearance.

Really?

Urbanmech, Kit Fox are tops for me. The Locust and Pirahna are fun just due to the ‘tunnel-vision’ aspect of their play style. I’ve been playing Cougars, and they feel like a vintage turbo-prop fighter plane. Firestarter is also pretty darn cool, love the minimalist/utilitarian vibe.

The Locust has a nice cockpit too...just not as cool as a Raven

To each their own.

Hunchback, not cause I'm a fan boyie or anything. Never really thought about it much. That aerial in the Grasshopper really annoys me if that helps. Sticks up right into my view. Just want to snap it off, id pay money to remove it.

I really like the Roughneck.

Throwing in another vote for the Urbie, it reminds me of the old junkyard car I used to drive back in high school that had a bunch of aftermarket gauges bolted into it because the dashboard didn't work. I also like the Spider's cockpit, you have a decent field of vision but it still feels very cramped and small, which helps the sense of speed and danger you get from it. Also the Dragon, largely because it makes me feel like I'm driving some kind of futuristic big rig the way the CT juts into view.

Catapult has a very uncluttered setup with no flashing screens or big structural parts blocking the view, it's not visually stunning but if you're using something like a K2 that's built for brawling, you definitely appreciate the open field of view and minimal distractions.
