It is time. Unleash the UrbanMech on the masses, make it available for CBills so all the world can know its glory!

No.

Keep it premium. It's not like it's op.

You are clearly not among the enlightened. UrbanMech is for the masses, not to be jealously guarded like the hope diamond or virginity.

[Coolant]

sure, release another mech whose hit-boxes are borked upon the masses

[Kotzi]

Never been jealous seeing an Urbanmech. Rather reliefed if in OPFOR.

It is the only mech that I will ever say should stay exclusive, but due to its unique history, I think it should. And also, it's $20. If you really want them, but it's not like they're OOP.

[Ultimax]

It's a vanity item that only got released due to overwhelming fan desire and monetary support and it resides on the low end of the power scale.


It should stay exclusive.

[KraftySOT]

You could pay ME 20 dollars and I still wouldnt pilot it.

Kit Fox/adder maybe, the panther is actually not that bad if you're a half decent pilot.

[bad arcade kitty]

implying kit fox or adder are bad if you are a half decent pilot

[GreyNovember]

You want to make it available, fine, be my guest.

But you aren't going to see many of them after a day or two.

You don't really use Urbies unless you're in it for the hilarity of compromised troll builds.

So what's the point?

Half decent =/= decent.
A decent pilot in the Uller and Puma can do wonders. A "half decent", i doubt it.

Urbanmechs require decent pilots too. It's no Hankyu or Firestarter, that can make even the biggest scrub into a god.

They're both bad even if you are. A gust a wind could CT either one of em.

At anyrate just had a 2 kill 300 some odd damage in a non basic Urbie. It's a fun lil *******.

[Spheroid]

The Urbanmech is a fun mech and people should consider spending money on it. It's a very good value if you are in the market for 30 days premium time.

Look at the price of the Spider mastery pack. You pay more and get less. Only the early bird Wolfhound/Jenner IIC are better and they are expired now.

[ScreamingSkull]

I don't think they could to be honest. It would cost only 1.4m cbills if they used the lore price. I don't think people would be happy knowing they paid $20 for a weak, cheap mech (although it is much better than it is in tabletop).

[Tennex]

When was it supposed to become avaliable ?

[Spheroid]

@ScreamingSkull: How do you know they are terrible if you don't own one?
