I voted Netcode.
However, there are so many broken major things in this game that just fixing 1 of them will not cut it.

I believe the netcode should be the number one priority! Fix the netcode and some of the other issues go away as a result.

Thanks for adding weapon balance. I will say however that it is strong competitor to net code. I basically only pick weapon balancing because that'S where I spend most of my energy on in relation to M:WO. (And if I personally had to do it, I'd say I am more qualified to fix balance then net code :D )

It would be interesting to start a conversation on what issues you think exist regarding weapon balance in general and any particular weapons in specific.
The only real issue I feel exists is the current necessity to carry a large amount of ammo in comparison to canon/TT.

Put the game back in closed beta until everything is ready instead of milking people like some prize 4H cow.

You can't balance appropriately without a working netcode though.

Well as long as they don't introduce lockboxes and pay2win pokemon-like collectable passives, I think their income strategy is pretty tame compared to other F2P titles.

I've played a couple p2p games and I ended up handing them my CC.

Cannot pick just one in good faith. They are all major issues.

I'm not confident about netcode ever being fixed so I chose "Mech Collision/ DFA / Knockdown" as this would return balance to the different mech classes by allowing a team to simply knock down a faster mech and kill it while it's face down on the ground.

Net code from the listed options.

But I would rather that they optimized the game so that I don't have to suffer fps lows of less than 20. Yeah, and that's on the lowest settings. And my computer is not only brand new, it's also got a dedicated graphics card. Sure, average is 25 - 40, but sometimes it just randomly drops down to 17-19, and that's not just when there's a lot of stuff going on on the screen. Lame.

But then there's also the issue of hit detection. As in, somebody shoots me in the back, and I take damage in the front CT. I've heard of this happening with ravens, but I noticed this happening to me in one of my phracts. And to add to this list, the issue of ravens standing completely still and not getting hit, even though people are aiming dead center of it.

I think the one I wanted to vote for is: fix those gamebreaking bugs already!

i decided to chose the 4fps bug/ memeory leak etc.

many of the stuff you gave as options are not "fixes" but whole new features, so i left them out...

Not reading the whole thing but I'd want demos/spectating slots on servers.
