This is a great game, but I already completed the single player game and the multiplayer battles have no progression or depth. I think this game could be amazing by combining the multiplayer into the single player by adding 'ranked matches for mercenaries tv show' contract at various planets.
You would enter a ranked match via the 'contracts' link in single player where there would be an option to que with limits on value of lance/level of pilots and you would be able to use your own custom lance with custom weapons and pilots etc from single player and would win salvage, cash and equipment at the risk of losing mechs and injuring pilots like in the single player game, you could also televise the top ranked mercenaries of the league each month in a tournament etc etc.

Well if you read all of that and think its a good idea then please bump this post

An interesting idea, though would probably be rife with balance issues and exploitation. Not insurmountable though.

As long as it doesn't make the single player depend on internet access in any way.

I would prefer the two stay far apart, because trying to balance mp and sp is always a cluster.

Though a shared MP universe where you matches meant ... something, would probably be fun for MP folks.
