This may have been brought up in the past, sorry if it has, but I was thinking what if you have your twelve bots that you use in missions, arena and so on, but you'd also have the option of having say six more in the background? I know that most, myself included, like to tinker and make new characters, you could have six in the background that, if you chose to, you could switch out with a current bot in your line up, kinda like in comic books where you have your core members and then every once in awhile one of them bows out for a little while and a new back up member comes in to take their place.

This way it would save alot of time for the player, instead of resetting a current character and then going through and re-naming and re-doing stats they could just click a few boxes and switch characters and then if they wanted to bring the core one back again just click and he or she is back instead of resetting.

How's that sound

increasing the roster? yeah that's an old idea, but i still like it!

More places in the roster = less difficulty in deciding which alt-modes to use! It's always so hard to choose...

Cool idea, Blackmoon.

Yeah something like that, you'd still have your twelve playable characters and then like I said maybe six spare bots in the background that you could switch out with the others and then play them for awile until you felt like switching back to the other character..... if that makes any sense?

though in all honesty most people don't bother with the bottom six of their team, then tend to beef up their top six and let the rest languish.

im one of em, particularly my top 3 ^^

If you combine this idea with Burns about the battle simulater......

It could be made that only your 'reserve' 6 could use the simulator, that should eliminate the problem of taking people away from the missions

hell if were going that way we could just increase the active roster and cap how many of your bots can be in the arena at one time.

Good idea Blackmoon. God knows I want more guys on my team. But maybe it should be soemthing like, when switched to the "off" roster, that said bot must stay "off" for a certain period of time

I'm actually aiming to get a million xp lvl 0, not letting the bottom 6 languish

And i try and level my team as evenly as possible. Don't know why, but i just do
