    The Mech Tech was found and if it one big bloody blast. But over time while trying to ride this puppy unto high tier planets, it doesn't have close quarter counter abilities like being able to trample or Jump on enemies to do any damage.

    Plus the rapid fire Gatling guns slowly do lesser and lesser damage to higher and higher threatening enemies. Making it almost useless and gimmicky.

    I'm already assuming like this might already be worked on, But I was hoping that Mech's are not treated like Tech. And are like Vehicles that can be parked, transported, customized with different parts or come in "Model Sets" that's built towards a specific purpose. Maybe even taken from its owner if someone gets into it unless an upgrade is applied that adds a level of security to a Mech rider's vehicle. Like Keypad pass word, keys or remote control. Etc.

    Its awesome, would be useful in heavy warfare, or just to travel across planet surfaces to explore safely in the cockpit (Except depending on its built or how some enemies are armed, can easily take down a mech or make it outright difficult to fight in on, results in the rider having to deal with the situation on foot.)

    Instead of Mech's being a Tech that long lost waiting to be found, would rather be a blueprint (Or multiple blueprints) Where one can construct one on a crafting interface like a garage, allow one to customize many properties of their mech. Walk faster, denser armor, Long/medium/short range weaponry, Mounted additional weaponry for offensive, defensive or supportive purposes on the back of the mech. Augment it if can have thrusters for propelling itself forward and/or able to ascend into the air a little higher for easier climbing.

    Maybe for everday use I did suggest in one thread, like one meant to carry a small inventory of stored items, and turn into a Makeshift Merchant stand when the Mech powers down should the Rider choose so.

    Or one meant for mass Mining, using a Shovel hand, Mining laser/Mining drill as the other hand, and a average sized storing container mounted on the back.

    Etc.

    Otherwise, it needs a buff, needs to be standalone and needs to be customized and come with many parts.

    Surfer7272 Yeah, You!

    yeah all this stuff would be super nice, but it would have to be very late game or even endgame. but i guess there would be different tiers.

    Late sounds optimal, so they still have plenty of use before end game, before they are used for PVP.

    Oh yeah pvp would be awesome! and you could have smaller and crappyer versions before endgame.
