Battle scar cosmetics such as bullet holes, laser scars, etc. Something like the bullet holes on the centurion's shield arm.

2. Moving hardpoints over a mech. For instance if i modified my CTF like in the above picture for me it would be worth an additional 250-750 MC to move hardpoints around.

If you change the hardpoints on a mech you're altering game balance issues.

I would definitely pay for custom decals/artwork for my mechs. I want a Virginia Tech Hokie on my mechs pretty bad. You'd think given the business model for games like these they would be interested in any revenue stream possible.

I would be willing to pay premium again for 1 vs 1 matches.
I no longer will spend anymore money as my losses are increasing and more and more of these 4 x 4 drop teams come in and chase everyone off.

Even a 1 on 1 random would be better, but it could later become like a dueling arena, where players can choose and even challenge others.
Maybe even going to 2 v 2 ect..

Won't start a lengthy discussion here. But from my experience with very different MMO and the Mechwarrior games line, no it won't. Hardpoints only become a problem if weapon balance is already broken. Currently in MWO it shows up in some subvariants being much more often played or hated than others. Just as quick example take the splat cat. The splat cat is no problem because of its 6 missile hardpoints, but because of the SRMs damage. If they remove missiles hardpoints from the splatcat the FOTM-hord will simply switch to the chassis with the next highest number of missile hardpoints.

Contrary to common believe, hardpoints do not realy work as a balancing factor. Hardpoints simply reduce the number of viable chassis based on a given weapons imbalance.

And the impact of moving them around is so slight it doesn't matter for overall balance.

I completely agree with this, 4x4 Drop Groups are ruining this game.

Ok guys....and now for some out of the mech thinking. I would pay to have a mech garage where I have an avatar that can walk in and see all my mechs lined up. I can walk up to them, climb up the scaffolding to inspect them...get a real feel for the scale and size of my collection. I would also pay for an office that I can decorate with my awards, have a little monitor where I can chat with other warriors who are just hangin in their own mech garage and want to talk about their latest kill before jumping into battle again. i can also decorate this place with pics from my best battles, save my coolest videos. A fridge with full of beer would be nice too! I think you get the idea.

I've been thinking about this one...I'd pay for cockpit items but only if they "Did" something. you know faction items giving small bonuses against traditional enemies ETC. and I'll cetrtainly not spend a lot of money on paint. I played with painting mt treb in the colors we used in our looooong TT campaign but it came out to more than the MC cost for the mech.

not gonna happen. I don't have that much money to spend on Games.

i'd pay to fast forward time so Clan tech can be "seen" ( so i can pilot my timber wolf already.... )
( sorry for my disregard to the BT / TT universe, i was 6 when i 1st played mech 2 31CC 3DFX Voodoo edition ( voodoo 2 diamond monster 3d II ) and i loved it ( mechcommander ( OG / GOLD ) - is the best of all the mech games IMHO note that mc2 sucks- )

i guess im saying is i want the full variety of the mech universe to be released, cause honestly im saving all my MC so i can Decorate my Timber Wolf and Mad Dog when the time comes

and i guess a SP mode campaign would be cool

I would buy premium time IF I could activate it in chunks at a time. I'd even pay extra for this.

Made a thread about the idea:

Bouncy boob bobble...boobs. A bobblehead featuring a well endowed female would be pretty cool, imo. Might pay too much attention to it in a match though. XD

I would pay for a single player campaign. Start up a kickstarter and you will have millions of dollars to do the single player option!

This, and I'd also pay handsomely to create a private match just for friends. At this point I'll also pay real money to set the weapon groups in the lab rather than at the start of the match because I just find that whole process tedious. Keep the ability to manipulate the groups in the game, of course, because who knows when the situation will actually warrant it, but otherwise having to do it every game is a major drag.

I would pay for Game Modes other than the generic arcade-style modes we've been offered so far. That is, I'd like to see real game modes with complex mission parameters.
