Hey Everyone!

We’re excited to announce a sale this weekend we think you will all love, especially our new players! So first, let us check out a situation.

You’re a new player. You just got yourself through the cadet program and you want two Trial Mechs so you can customize them… but you can only afford one...

Bring on the TRIAL BY FIRE sale! Now, you can buy the Trial Mech variant(s) you want (JR7-F Jenner, AS7-D Atlas, CPLT-K2 Catapult, CDA-2A Cicada), for FIFTY PERCENT OFF the MC price. Yeah, I said 50%. 50. Half of one-hundred. No seriously stop asking, yes it is true.

This sale will be on this weekend, from March 1st at 10am PST till March 4th at 10am PST. So act now, MechWarrior!

Just out of curiosity, do you actually sell any of the mechs for MC when they are for sale for c-bills?

So another dumb trial mech sale which prevents me from playing in what little time I have before I go to work? Great!

I played hard for that 50/50 weekend to save up enough cbills to buy a CPL-K2 and then I screw up buying it and end up using MC's instead of CB's... NOW ITS 50% OFF!


These feels, they sucks.

Hey, it's not a bad sale. You can grab a K2 for 1,062 MC (you get 1,250 MC from the $6.95 package). New players can use their c-bills for the DHS/Endo upgrade then maybe buy a couple of Gauss Rifles or AC/20s to go with it. K2 probably best deal in the bunch for those wanting to avoid some grind. :)

Well, I bought my K2 with MC as a reward for myself after grinding for a D-DC and RS Atlas. Couldn't stand to grind another c-bill after buying those two Atlases. :D

I would like a good sale, please? Not an attempt at a cash grab on mechs that we can already get with C-bills..

To be more constructive: Give me hero mech sales, MC sales, premium time sales, paint and camo sales, mech bay sales, or even homigosh, a free mech bay with purchase of hero variant.

EDIT: Maybe if posts like these get enough likes PGI might consider them.

Well spoken. I find those sales not attractive as well...

I really really really need to know how by Odins Beard will this sale prevent you from playing at any time you damn well feel like it?

The 30 minutes of downtime from the server is about 6 games(If you count each game by 5 minutes on avg) that he could have spent playing. So they provided him with a slightly useless sale and prevented him from playing a bit(Not saying we're entitled to servers 24/7 or anything..).

hmm, nice sale. This will be a good chance to get these mechs relatively cheaply for those that don't want to grind for the c-bills. Not to mention we might actually start seeing more Jenners on the battlefield again, I kinda miss seeing lots of those.

Personally, I would like to see a sell on the c-bills price too. I prefer spending my MC on mech bays and that would give me a reason to buy more.

This brings up another good sale idea: Mech bay sale, 25%-50%? Another idea: Give me a free mech bay with the purchase of one of these trial mechs on sale and I would me much more inclined to buy one. What say you, PGI?

It's a sale. Sales never appeal to everyone(see shoe sales). Be happy they are starting with sales. And proven again, you can't please everyone.

Thanks for the sale!
