Hero Mechs

VOIP - someone mentioned this, but you should not have to pay for it, this should be standard.

I would pay for some sorta of PVE.. I personally think a "mission" system you could do with friends would be epic. Also I would pay big $$ to be able to salvage stuff lol. I kinda missed that about the older MW games. Now you just get some C bills and your done.. It was nice to have lasers etc laying around extra.

Instead of all of this cockpit clutter? Which I'll admit, is a distraction from combat, which, I don't put in any of my mechs.. how about MECHBAY decorations? A large faction banner behind your mech, or a more indepth bay view..

That seems a better thing to decorate than the in game cockpit.

I'd pay for paints if they were permanent and I could use them when I wanted.

This and:

I would love it if I could ALSO recolour my founders and hero mechs I paid alot of dosh for.
No changing patterns, that's alright, but at least the colours!

[0verk1ll]

I would pay a bit of MC... say 25 to rename my mech.

[twistedcry]

i would pay for
more maps
more game modes including 1v1
storymode

plus i would love to see many more mechs weps and gear i would pay for a all out full version of the game. and being able to access the options menu mid match would be nice, as well as more detailed disciptions of items in the mech lab.

lol in summary great game i want more and would pay for more and im blown away that this game is free

[Jaynestown]

I would pay MC for a single-player campaign, released in installments, similar to how they did Walking Dead on steam. Three missions here. Three missions there. Preferably, co-op friendly.

I would pay MC dues to lore-based Houses or Merc Companies in order to receive some month to month benefit (different/additional line of "Trial" mechs available, different missions, etc.).

I would not pay MC for an add/remove items (currently paint, upgrades) but I would be willing to spend and re-spend C-Bills on those items. I would pay MC for permanent upgrades which I could toggle on/off at no further cost. I would prefer for all upgrades to work like this. I don't see it happening though.

[Gladewolf]

I would pay for "mech parts". Let me explain. I found this destitute has been, with a Dragon he called "Flame". Anyway, I bought it from him and now it's mine! So, I ripped all the stupid weapons he had on there(aren't AC 2s for long range armor buffing?!) and put on some of my proper long range mauling gems....and now i'm looking around in mech junk yards and talking to engineers to get a left arm that matches the really nice looking right one...you know, so that i can take the PPC i strapped to the outside of my left am and install it in a more....asthetic fashion. Let me know if you know anybody that's got something like that, like i said, i got money, alright? *silly attempt at RP off*

Replacement skin pieces would be a really cool addition, I think this suggestion is might already be out there...but i didn't want to sift through 60+pages of suggestions to be sure.

[Wolfways]

I would pay to never have to play Frozen City again

Getting the same map over and over is bad enough, but getting a map that you hate over and over is really making me start to hate playing.
Of course i rarely see my favourite map, River City.

[JTAlweezy]

I may pay for modules that increase sp 30% increase or money increase%, that you can equip on mechs. Of course it would require MC to unlock that specific pilot skill. This way PGI does not miss out on the profit and players that dont want to pilot a bonus mech can pay (i would say a far larger sum of MC) to equip a module on their mech for this kind of bonus.

[Laserkid]

It's a pretty good model right now. It's not Pay to Win literally at all right now.

Hero mechs are pretty good, but not unbalanced vs even their own chassis variants.
Doodads, paint jobs are cool, but purely cosmetic.
Premium time/Hero mech no longer effects the viability of mech configs with repair/ammo bill removed.
What I do want to buy.
once "Companies" become official and integrated into the game. I would like a camo/color sceme setable by the unit commander to be purchasable via a flat MC charge for all my current and future mechs aslo as long as I'm in that "Company". Unit insignia should be just a Cbill charge if anything.
Able to convert a Jpeg to a picture one hang inside their mech. If they had the pic to convert in the first place and only the client sees it while playing so even mature content shouldn't matter

[I WildCard I]

Id pay quite a bit of MC for a dash mounted ashtray with a burning cigar in it. Obviously some nice smoke effects would be a necessity.

[Desicator]

made a joke that when 10m from friendly press "F" for high fives. Everyone agreed they would pay for it. $20 was the high bid.

[F0gh0rn Legh0rn]

I would like to pay for more things... but just cant. prices for mechs in dollars is too high in my opinion.

Though I'd suggest a 'Market' where you could buy mechs sold by others... 'used'.. at cheaper prices. Likely this would be older mech chassis, leaving the new ones for those able to fork out the money for them.

[Straker]

I would like a pay plan like the premium account that lets me paint my mechs however I want as much as I want.

except for story mode all of the things you suggested need to remain free so the community does not get split up into payers and free to players.

i don't want to be seperated from any of the fresh meat!

[blinkin]

a flux capacitor for the cockpit that glows brightly whenever your mech goes faster than 141.6kph.

oh yeah i went there!

i originally thought about flaming footprints but that seemed a bit excessive.

[SGT Unther]

a classic shark mouth paint scheme overlay for mechs with a large nose like the dragon.

like this

[SGT Unther]

I would also pay $1 to upload a custom decal for my mechs, nothing more than a buck seriously I mean it.

2: Different laser colors
3: Camo specs
4: Custom color trim places
6: Pinup paintings for the outside or shark teeth, etc
9: Grime. Sounds dumb, right? But if someone wants to have a pristine parade paint mech I'm cool with that. Let me have my beat up mud around the boots ancient family mech too.
10: Named mechs that people can see on the scoreboard. It's fine to have damage posted based on mech, but it'd be cooler to have x amount of damage dealt by Wraith in Scream (Banshee BNC-3E)
11: Custom decals. Pirates of the Burning Sea has the same deal, except it's free. There are rules on coming up with flags and insignias that are far more stringent than these would be. They require period colors and fabrics, we don't have to. And I'm sure a lot of people would be willing to pay a dollar or two to have their lance insignia on the mech.
12: Mech props. These don't have to be crazy, but my example is. If I'm in some drac unit or merc company that likes to do things the old fashioned way, how could would it be if they could have props? Japanese banners that samurai used to wear that have a full insignia/mon on them would be AMAZING.
13: Changing faceplate glow. Think halo reach. Black cockpit glass? Green cockpit glass? The colors could be endless.

plus:
The ability to listen to my own tunes while playing (and possibly buying speakers for the mech to play through as well to the ouside world
customizable pilot skins (I'd love to see original style circa 3025 coolant vests and shorts with the neck lasso)
OP's concept for the custom decal idea
The ability to add the type chat window into the HUD screen for the cockpit view
Customizable cockpit HUD setup (I'd like to move some of the screens in the cockpit about

Naturally this is all just my wishlisting. Great stuff so far though!
