I would like to see a pre game menu that would show what map you are playing on and allow you to discuss with your teammates on the stratagy. You could also choose your mech here so that you make a balanced team.

The pre game menu should last a few minutes to allow players to pick or switch mechs based on what map they are playing. This could encourage players to make a balanced lance and to communicate their role ahead of time when they are playing in a PUG.

+1 For this idea

very very much agreed! the way its set up now means there can be a bunch of Assult mechs against a bunch of light and med and that is going to suck hard core... either the lights will get slautghered if they are not fast enough or the assult will see nothing and get pummeled with little laser and Mgun fire. Allowing players to pick or switch mechs based on what map they are playing and what thier team picks would be a huge advantage in team building.

Bump. It is presently just random... what is the point of being able to design all these loudouts (which is btw rather confusing) if you can't select one that is optimal for the conditions you'll be fighting in?

+1 to this idea.....the totally random BS like WoT has it is most the reason for the idiocy...they give us no time to plan anything..I hope in the VERY least MWO tells us what maps were going on.....but for some reason i dont think it will happen.

Showing the map and the planned team loadout would benefit the lance allowing even a random group to work together and have a plan and hopefully allow players to quick change mechs before the game to select a scout if one is needed.
