I'd pay for the ability to get out of my battle mech and explore the mech wearhouse with a custom charactor, maybe look at machine guns I puchused for my battle mech, or interact with other people and there mechs at there base in there mech bay. Would be cool to see a single player mode aswell in mech online a way I can earn money or credits, I think the term C-Bills was associated with money in the mechwarrior universe? I would like a way to earn them on an offline mode aswell as online and have both the offline and the online gameplay come together into one game, just switch between them with a sub-menu or a room at the mech-lab... Hope the beta goes well I'll be very excited to see the inovations they've made to the mechwarrior game I hope the story lines and game play remain as good as they were in mechwarrior vengeance and in mechwarrior mercenaries. The MMO aspect in the mechwarrior world is a very interesting concept aswell hope to see a lot more of this in addition to the gameplay that I mentioned in previous sections of my post I also would like to see other area's in the gameplay open up like in the title mech commander you played the role of the general commanding the mechwarriors instead of playing the role of the mechwarrior himself, would be interesting to see that avenue of gameplay in the mechwarrior online series have people play the role of the general at the base that may be captured so at any moment if they faulter relaying good information to the mechwarriors they could loose the base and have to get in the dropship and go would be interesting game mechanic in future title 5 vs 5 mode with 4 people in a lance of mechs + a commanding relaying information about the map and stretegic points that the mechwarrior couldnt otherwise mannege while being locked in combat,sending orders to support mechs telling them to fall back if forward scouts got eliminated because a support mech wouldnt suit the role of close range combat aswell as a mech better outfitted in the mechlab. Ect. ect. ect. the gameplay ideas could be infinate what I hope dosnt happen to the game is renting mechs with real life money I can see buying or subscribing but not renting a subscription to a members would intitle renting basically because you wouldnt be able to otherwise use your purchused battle mech without the membership or visa versa if you earned it in single player mode I wouldnt want you not to be able to use something you earned because of a membership fee I think it would ruin the community the only reason you shouldnt be able to use some of your mech supplys would be because they got destroyed in combat by a superrior pilot or because your mech didnt have sufficant tonnage available in the mech-lab, another nifty idea I could see the mechwarrior universe having is a C-Bills fee for changing armor/weapons C-bills fee for the mechanic of course. But loose a machine gun in battle now you dont only have to buy a new machine gun but also pay the C-bills to get in installed onto the battle mech. Would make a way to sell C-bills online also I would pay for that.

What I wouldnt pay for is an imbalance in weapons or armor. If I payed $10 for 5million c-bills and it bought me a mech and some ammo, I wouldnt want a guy with less skill at the game beat my mech with a weapon that costed $5 just because he bought a more overpowered weapon after I already bought mine then I'd just buy another for $2.50 and the game would be a battle of how much real world money I had spare and less about the game-play or skills I had If i was battle against a friends lance I would want that friend to have just as good of a chance as I do even though I payed $10 and he just plays the game better. Likewise if my friend was playing the game with me on my lance I wouldnt want my team to have a disadvantage just because one of my lance mates earns his weapons threw success in the game and the enemy lance had two people pay $5.50 each instead of $10 on one of them it would make the game incrediably frustrating I believe solid gameplay and a unique design with frequent updates on solid content would sell itself I hope you really can play any role in combat in this game like the developers have be raving about at events like E3 and GDC and it isn't a battle of who can get to the bank the quickest and make an investment in parahna games as much as the developers would love that. : )

Reguards,
Ronn


ps. still waiting on my beta key!

I think it would be cool if you could have self-generated models in you cockpit (either from autocad or solid works) even if it was only a curtain # of colors per model. It would be cool if you could purchase a "hardpoint" on your dash board for something to place it there. I would pay 10 dollars to have all of that with a maximum of 4 items (or something) I can custom make and downlad to be approved and used.

it would be cool if they gave us different shapes we could move and change to make our emblem in game! sort of like x box does it. i would pay $5 for it!

EDIT:
Or if i could pay a one time fee to get able to use different munitions would be cool but i would only pay like $2 dollars for that otherwise it would be overpowered, keep it low so everyone could get it! Or have it so that we have to get a curtain amount of loyalty points to get access to the posibility it should cost more c-bills than the norm

2) Cockpit accessories. Me and Bitey were having a conversation in another MechWarrior game today, and he said his cockpit would be filled with trash if he were actually a mechwarrior. You know, empty bottles, candy wrappers, etc.. He said he'd love it if he had to dig through all the trash to find the eject lever, and he'd be willing to pay for it in MWO. I didn't know if he's gonna post in this topic, so I may as well throw it in here.


I would pay serious dollars to be able to have a pair of fuzzy dice hanging from the roof of my cockpit... or a mirrorball. :D

Not a good idea changing the colours of the lasers, gauss trail n such. They should be standardised so they can be recognised easily when fired.

Agreed

If the game indeed is too addictive for me i wouldnt mind spending 100 euro's for it (bringing example), the only thing that worries me is why not adding Paysafe on the billing , personally i dont use credit cards and the paysafe is a slow way imo, i m not usin any of the 2 ways that u got , and honestly if this thing stays as it is , i think that u ll have some other (younger ppl ) saying the same thing.Correct me if i m wrong here , but almost all the games i m buying via internet (either using STEAM in the between excanges) , i use paysafe. Its safer and u have a messure of saying to urself that : Today i m gonna spent about 50-250 euro for my personal fun for this month at least . :(
The above is an example , not that i m spending that much for games MMO's or not , but there are other hobbies that are more expensive than collecting games in ur PC....
Anyways from the time u put this game onto the table i m waiting it. At least i know what i ll be doing after the summer.
C u at the battlefield.

Don't do pay to win!!!
It is such a terrible thing when more casual gamer's get dominated by pay to win player's.
Don't have premium mechs/weps/gear that can only be bought with real money.
Decal's and custom skins! That is what is needed, but don't be stupid with pricing any thing more than $5 is to much.

i'd pay for my LRM's to have rainbow tails.
ya
that would make me magical

i'd pay for my Gauss rifle to shoot a plasterscene slug that stuck to a mech section, and play music of my choice,
so if i hit you in the head, you would be stuck listening to ann murry till the end of the battle!


and bell bottoms,
i loved it when my old griffon looked like he just finished a disco dance off!

A targeting feed for the arm weapons, so you can fire around a corner without exposing your whole Mech. Not sure if that would upset game balance.

The timeline is progressing on a 1:1 Ratio, the clans should be entering the game sometime next year..


Please for the love of the Gods, Do not make C-bills purchasable for cash this would ruin the game faster than lock boxes, and forum changeovers that kill everyone's identity Ref: STO and PWE.

That sounds... awesome.
It would not affect gameplay in any way, it gives no one the advantage, it costs likely nothing to code, and people are without doubt going to buy it for the heck of it. $0.50 to change your rocket tails for a day?

Also, Paintball effects! rockets, lasers and shells could leave paint splatters all over an enemy

I'd pay for:

custom skins

custom decals

the ability to change the HUD color, from that icky yellow thats in the screenshots to say a red or blue?

the ability to change to a custom crosshair

the ability to "customise" the hud, move things around from left to right, etc.

The ability to do a "custom movment" of some sort. IE stomp one foot forward and move its arms back like the mech is screaming/roaring
