I'm sure some of these have been mentioned. I know some of this can already be done if you mod the game but I'm not one to mess around with the game that way unless I really must.

First two things that seem simple, first more Company shields though possibly even better as it would make me happy right now is the ability to change the color for the existing company shields. I don't think they have more than 3 primary colors that I've noticed so the ability to set each color to what I want would vastly increase our options and make me happy:). In a related note the color options for the mechs could be increased as well in particular a way to make a more obviously black mech please! The black currently in game is more a dark gray, metal color for most of the mechs.

Just my two cents I'm up for more content of any sort! Probably most glaring thing I see that might not be too hard is to add some randomness to the story missions of at least area and mech/vehicle types, this is to add variety to different play thru's so maybe just have the of a random seed decided when start campaign so each play through has a different seed and option will only vary from the different play throughs?

Really enjoying the game and just hoping for more.

There is something in the way the graphics work in this game that messes with the color palettes on mech paint. Especially with the darker colors and black. When you see them in the field, the colors are washed out, or overlayed with outlined detail that obscures the base color. Maybe a self-illumination "glow" is involved too, I dunno. The lighting and colors just don't look right.

I think we'll probably have to live with it, because most games don't alter the basic lighting and surface texture effects after release.

At least you can replace the Unit Merc Insignia with your own personal poster if you want (not the boring default) - that really helps to personalise the feel of the Ship and the fact it`s YOUR team.

It makes me invested in what I`m doing and to do it to the best of my ability.
