Hello everyone I had this idea: Why not be able to change mech during part without having to commit suicide? I noticed in the test arena map you can change rapidly mech with appliances located next to "teleport". The idea is to put these devices in the spawn behind the turrets. By cons here is a problem: you have a heavy mech with 250 EU but you want to change against a light mech, you will lose 100 EU. Why change mech? For example, your team needs a technician, you just have to choose a technician without suicide and faster. The enemies can not do a dam break with a light mech? you can take a grenadier for example ... Here is my idea I hope you like it, if you say the suggestions :)

There's potential for abuse with that, like people switching mechs to re up on their items or instantly regenerate health.

What's the big fuzzy bunnyng deal? Lots of amazing people have committed suicide, and they turned out alright.

well if the change station is only at team base i feel that would help reduce any abuse ability, ie running back to your base to fill hp and items means abandoning your team at aa or eu for potentially a lot of time depending on the map.

I like the idea, but if this were implemented, there should also be a limit to the number of each mech type a team can have at one time. I think one of the worst abuses would be everyone switching over to one type of mech in order to exploit its advantages (i.e. incinerator to burn down the ship, all heavies to gather eu, etc.) Of course, that's assuming your team can work together.

Also, I agree with JackVandal, that changing mechs would promote abandoning the AA at times. Dying would actually be a lot faster if you really wanted to change quickly as well.


What the Heca-

It's available in origin siege when you play the party 6v6 thingy. Yeah, not many know about this.

There used to be panels on certain maps that would allow you to swap mechs.  I think they were removed with the steam update?

There are such panels on test arena map. I havent thought to check if they are also on other maps. They might be somewhere indeed, unnoticed by most, because you have to get close to them to see option for swap mech. Which isnt actually swaping but instant death feature. Since you get 3rd person kill cam and wait same amount of time before proceeding to garage.
