<div class="IPBDescription">com bot</div>Simple idea allow com to remote control a exosuit(mech) that is not being worn by a player... maybe spit screen or tab functionality...

    what if the controls were like simple MAC controls - so you could walk your EXO's empty to the players at the battle line

    Give all macs dual mini guns.

    First of all, this would be incredibly unbalanced, and secondly, the players should be the 'units' the commander has to control. MACs and Drifters only serve to support the players.

    the marine commander has to pay attention ALL the time. a well-timed power-node rush by the aliens is already a very dangerous threat. and let's not forget med+shield support which requires quick reactions as well. if you'd rather spend your time controlling an exo, you can as well jump out and let someone else be com (permanently or until your exo is down).

    I'm thinking about the power node rush.... Say your team is exo, can't beacon them and if you jump out your an lmg vs a onos, So you drop a mech then get out kill the aliens now you can't get in the chair, but if you could drop the mech and take remote control you could fight off the node rush and still be in the chair ready to com....

    For a visual I'd like to see a bubble cam on all mech so that com can picture in picture a selected mech or if the mech is empty move and shoot but without the HUD display...

    I like your idea :D

    I had the idea to make exos controlled by the commander and aimed by a player. Nobody wanted to do it :(
