Why take ECM from DWF Prime? The only other DWF C with ECM has JJ so less armour and space. Loved playing my Prime but it can stay in the mech bay now. I suspect I don't see Executioners ,Warhawks ,Kodiaks,Summoners and Supernovas for the same reason, no ECM and you have to hide and snipe or everyone takes potshots at you and you get more LRMs than one AMS can handle - not FUN to play.

Because its' presence there was a bug in the first place. It was added in the July patch and PGI was clear that they were going to fix it.

I think Hollander II would be cool. It is visually unique and I remember it from MechCommander.

PGI could do a mix of old and new and make a Hollander III or Hollander IIC. That was not in the lore right? Would give them some freedom of redesign. Just pretend a faction found an old Hollander 11 factory and retrofitted it.

An IS 55 ton Hollander III quirked to viably carry a heavy gauss or double light gauss would be cool and unique. Or Clan Medium Gauss carrier with high hardpoint. Could be other variants made for RAC or PPC or whatever.

A few ideas for Is: Atlas II, the Thug, the crusader, the owens, the avatar, the sunder, the hauptmann, the argus.
For the clans: Turkina, Stone Rhino, the firemoth, the hellhound etc...

[Xypherious]

I want to see:

Jackalope- jumpy bunny mech!

Arbalest!

Axman- I know, I know, melee and all that. But if at all possible......

Jupiter!

Mortis!

Cadaver!

Exhumer!

Gravedigger!

Cooldown Variability. Add a slight variation to weapon cooldown cycles, tie it to the number of weapons of the same Ghost Heat grouping, and make the randomness a function of the number of weapons mounted. Justify it as computer system load if you like, mitigate it with Targeting Computer tonnage, maybe even make it skillable in the future. For each weapon of a given group beyond the second, give a +/- 0.01 sec random variability per weapon to the cycle time. Sporting 4 IS Large Lasers? They might all come online at 3.5 secs (Cooldown bonus notwithstanding), or they might come back online at 3.50, 3.50, 3.54 and 3.58 secs. If you wait for them to all be 'up' before you pull the trigger again, you have a pure Alpha Pinpoint. If you just propped a brick on your fire button and went for a cup of coffee, well, you'll get a bit more 'smeared' application of damage.

Here's an easy one... all the new "variants" of chassis in MW5mercs DLC's... make them available on MWO as packs:

• Hero's of the Inner Sphere Light/Medium Pack
  
• Hero's of the Inner Sphere Heavy/Assault Pack
  
• Kestrel Lancers Light/Medium Pack(s)
  
• Kestrel Lancers Heavy/Assault Pack(s)

Would love to have these also in my collection of 677 mechs
Make it so...

The Summoner need some Love.
For a 70t Mech is a load of 21t simply not enough.Combined with the rare weapon hardpoints, it is far underarmed than comparable mechs of this class.
Give him adicional Omnipods or adjust the payload.

What about being allowed to drop the engine size to increase available tonnage with existing omnipods?

[C337Skymaster]

Summoner needs the -G variant: 3x missile in each torso with an energy hardpoint in the CT.

I would suggest something like an Avatar, Stone Rhino, Naga, Woodsman, Stinger, Wasp, Locust IIC and Urbie IIC, Would love to see any other mechs added in the game.

[C E Dwyer]

Crusader
Wasp
Stinger

Missing classics.

Will they bring anything new, No but at this stage, there is nothing new that can be produced without extra work ( people are bound to ask for split hard points )

These three are the only mechs I have interest in they'd get me buying the largest pack option.

Home grown stuff whether it got made canon or not I have zero interest.

Please don't be tempted by the bullshark.. it's not a very good looking one. how it would play out in MWO I've no idea, but in HBS's turned based, it's so OP it's basically a Win button

[Brian Davion]

Templar please! if we can't get the proper templar due to XL engines just put the LFE equipped templar III in

[Ch_R0me]

IS Omnimechs.


Hell, give Torsos structure boost and Crit Reduction for XL engine perks.

Can we get the material overlays (matte, glossy, brushed metal) to be unlockable purchases?

[The Boneshaman]

WOB Celestial Omnimechs

[Nesutizale]

I would say pick the next step in the timeline. Maybe the next 10-20 years.
Look what mechs and variants where made there and start working.

Some people will find something new to love, other will buy because of fond memories and other just to have something new to do.

At this point, with this many mechs and a mechlab that is so open, it dosn't matter anymore if the mech brings something new into the game because we allready covered basicly ever single niche you could think of.
So its less about the gameplay.
