We all are familiar with Mechwarrior "Flush" version and was wondering if you were putting this some way
into MWO. Maybe have a limit of one for each person to use at a critical point of the match it's up to he/she decide when they want to use it.. I think it would be a good option to have especially at ends of matches when the scores are dead even and you have two mechs remaining. The person who saved theirs for the end would possibly stand a better chance and make things more interesting. I know the option of being able to spam them constantly threwout the entire match like in the old Mech versions would be great, but may take away from the overall heat management art/skill of piloting the mech. Thats why i think allowing just one each session would probably be best.

They have said no MW3 or MW4 style coolant flushes and teh majority of the playerbase is glad about that. The best you can hope for is a coolant pod (still several years away in the time line). Those however still do not function like the flushes from previous games. Instead it increases the efficiency of the heatsinks by 100% (50% for DHS) for tne seconds, thus it is not an instant cooldown button. They also take up tonnage, crit spots and can explode like ammo does.
