Can we get a rear view camera, like a small window in one corner of the screen showing what's behind? The number of times I've tried to back up in a fight and gotten stuck on something and I can't tell if it's terrain or another teammate bumping into me or something...

I mean, my car has a backup cam, it doesn't seem too unreasonable to me that my 31st century mech would have one too.

People have been asking for this feature for years.

We were told that the current MechWarrior Online game engine cannot render two scenes simultaneously. After all, this is a 21st century game, not some MechWarrior 2 from 1995.

Switchable front- and rear-view - like MechWarrior 4 had - would be acceptable too, but this also has never happened.

I'd take that.

I'd love that too. a button to see behind you.
