Something I didn't really see in either of the trailers was damage on any of the mechs.

Sometimes the HUD would flash or shut-down but other than that it didn't really seem like you took any damage.
Apart from the awesome explosion effects.

Something like this:


The glass breaks would be a nice effect to add, I think.
Maybe the interior lighting becoming red, lots of little red lights appearing along the dashboard and stuff would be cool too.
Just as long as there are no bloody screens or magically healing mechs, I will be fine.

Since there is so much detail elsewhere in the game, I don't see why this wouldn't be a feasible addition, apart from the minor intrusiveness of the effects.

Which I wouldn't find all that much of an issue.
As long as my screen doesn't become black and white with 90% of my screen covered in splats making it stupidly hard to see the people shooting at me, I'll be okay.

Pretty sure they specified in one of the interviews that in the full game we'll get to see more detailed damage to the cockpit.

It's a pre-alpha code they showed, after all
