What if instead of just changing omnipods we also had the freedom to move around the actual weapon hardpoints to wherever on the mech we want (aside from the center torso maybe) Your still limted to harpoints via what omnipods you have on but you can put those hardpoints wherever on the mech you want besides maybe the head or center torso. only weapons ECM and Jump jet slots remain the same, for balance..

How would this best be balanced?

Would this work better than the current system?

Disagree, for two reasons. First, everyone would cluster weapons high up on the torsos for best field of fire, balancing this with corresponding penalties would unpopular and difficult. Second, this would require more 3D modeling to support, which is something PGI is not committing resources to do (no new mechs).
