Priority "Realy Nice"

In the lower left of the screen is the status display of the currently selected opponent/enemy.
Heat, Damage, distance and type reference are shown.
What is not shown, is the (nick) NAME of the currently selected enemy.
The name is certainly not a war-winning information, but positive for the useability and helpful for playing.
It should take releativ little implementation effort.

...sometimes it does make a difference, whether you have in your neck - a clan war gamer or a nameless Nomad ...

The nickname is displayed on your targeting reticule when you target someone.  Seems a bit redundant to display that info twice.

(P.S. If the person you're targeting is so far away that you can't make out their tag, just zoom in a bit)

I agree that money doesn't bring happiness, all I ask is a chance to prove it.

Well, here's the thing...it's useful more for the purpose of friendlies. If there are a few mechs up ahead and I want to know who the pilots are, but they're only on my radar, not within visual range, it's useful to have it appear on lower left.

I'd say it would be more useful to have it on the lower left than on the reticule.
