I would not mind seeing more co-op options of different teams taking on different types of task.  Battling huge AI bots, taking out battleship fleets invading, defeat a super mech invasion, etc.  I am not certain what kind of story mode you could create, but having more than a survive 25 rounds of AI waves can be expanded on.  You would also need to keep Hawken fresh with locations, battle possibilities, new mech options which only open up once having all 6 ranks in them.  It is a great game concept and deserves to have some staying power to it, beyond seeing Hawken 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

1) This game has been in development for more than eight years.
2) The ideas know to us as Hawken have only be around for a little over half that.
3) A large majority of that time has been spent fixing bugs, mechanics and game play.
4) Only recently have the devs begun to delve back into the art and story of Hawken (G2's and Bunker).
5) Oh, and their level engineer got laid-off/quit/fired/whatever.
6) We're still in beta.

You're asking a whole fuzzy bunny lot out of a team of guys who are trying to make the game more playable, not more playable game.
