A servo for handling such oversized weapons would be great.
It would also support the effect of being in an war between highly developed factions in the near future.

And also camuflage costumes especially or snipers would also be great.

But in the end, this is already a fantastic idea making a mod about renegade. I think, the original game was great for that time, but had a lot of bugs (as known from westwood productions) and some minor flaws in balancing and gameplay. But in the end it was great, expect singleplayer :( So I think, a UT3 Mod would be fantstic, modern graphics, modern Bot AI, modern physics and a whole bunch of new ideas including changes and upgrades to the old style of Renegade!!!

This is just going to be awesome XD

Maybe it wpold be helpfull if the mindcontrolled person and the brainer were connected by some kind of lightly glowing line. Which would beginn at the brainers head and end at the sourvivors head, following some curved line, for example.

It would help to spot the brainer and indicate who is controlled by the brainer.

On the other hand you could give the brainer the ability to camuflage or stealth himself. So the "mindcontrol line" ... the first I could think about ... would be the only thing which would lead to the brainer, which would make him at first a very dangerous enemy, but think of his weakness against physical attacks.
Dangerous because he is hard to spot, but easy to kill.

Also the brainer should need intervisibility to start mindcontrol. But afterwards is possible to move around, in some kind of area.
Another thought I got was, the brainer should be visible as long as he hasn't established mindcontroll. Only after an completed mindcontrol, which should take 3-5 seconds to establish (during this time, the victim should move slower, and his sight should blur, like when beeing puked on by a boomer), the brainer should be able to become invisible, and the glowwing "mindcontrol line" from brainer to victim (survivor) should be the only think which leads to the brainer.

Like the tongue of a smoker for example.
