I think with all the negative feed back the next moves to be made need to be the right ones and thought out carefully.

Drones, plain and simple NO not at all don't even think about it.

Introduction of new ways to obtain A-coins
Most certainly needs to be a priority.

Priority #1 needs to be match making.
I think a good solution to fix this should be something like so
Use players experience as well as their hangers sp to decide the appropriate competition.
Next after that factor in the players strongest mech and pilot combinations to that formula.

For example if my total experience is 200,000 and my total sp is 5,000 I shouldn't be Paired against players with 6,000 sp and 275,000 experience.
The way the strongest mech would factor into this formula is at 5,000 sp on a average each mech should be at a total of 1,000 sp.
But the reality is 1 mech in my hanger is 1,100
Sp alone. So I shouldn't be Paired against a player who's any one mech totals 1,950 sp.
That's a fairly large gap for the current metric being used to measure hanger power.
Further more if at 5,000 1 mech totals 1,100 then that would mean evenly placing the rest of the sp across 4 mechs totals 975 each.
So the gap just became larger once the strongest mech is destroyed by the player who's strongest mech totals 1,950.
That's a gap of 975. This mech is 2 times a single mech. Not mentioning that not every mech will measure exactly 975 sp so the gaps become larger. I hope ppl are following me here.

Next one long arm cheetah bots.. stop it. The aim they have is unhuman and just completely ridiculous when Paired with all the implants and pilots.. if a player does those same build well That competition.. but when the computer does it every match it's match rigging because that same player who copies that build will never be 99.9% accurate. I mean my shadow in full stealth should not be shot 5 times in a row without a single fail from the same one bot.
I think we can all agree this is not right.

Rework of the entire implant shop... needs done as well. Like bruh 14,000 A-coins cost 100 American dollars before tax. But a implant container cost 1,370 A-coins.
Do the math. That's a total of 10.2 implant crates. Really? Really?
Then there's the fact that the shuffle in shop grants the same implants everyday and only refreshes I think once a day, STOP IT. all blues and out of the 6 only 2 appear regularly at legendary and epic qualities.
Reduce refresh time atl least to twice a day 3 would be perfect increase shop size from 6 to 9.

To much limiting for free to play players and casual spenders.

Some kinda boss fight would be nice too.
