Imagine for a moment that you can script text based taunts which you can send to your opponents during your online games.

Basically, the idea would be a collection of messages you can access via shortcuts, allowing different text colors and so forth...

Now imagine having CupCake running our asses off the sceneario, one by one, with a text-taunt as for example... "Come to Papi... Cooome to Paaapi!!."

*-> Always implementing in the most secure and protected way and making these pretty non-intrusive and, if you want, allowing to the user to switch them off via settings.

Better to have a key based taunt rather than stopping to type.
Secondly you never want to sacrifice the games immersion to appease an out of context taunt.

Now if you are sending a jamming signal or a hack file to an enemy mech that leaves a call sign
i.e.
"Hot enough for you in there." -Raex
(jam the air conditioning unit of the enemy mech and cause the player to be disoriented for a few seconds)

...That is something I'd be down for.

I would really like to see taunts in this game, but it needs to keep you immersed in the game.
Personally i will be saving for a cucaracha horn.

I guess the occasional cocky banter would be nice.
