A good guess, I have been expecti g some heros for Clan mechs for a while now. I am sure they will be very popular and generate a lot of revenue.

I really hope it is not about mechs at all but about new maps or the new assault mode.

Perhaps the revamped Terra Therma is ahead of schedule? Alternatively, another new map? Or maybe releasing additional variants for mechs that already exist in the game but we don't have yet for whatever reason.

New game modes for FW, would be nice as would more maps.

Something to do with PTS and/or Energy Draw and how great it is and will be "tested" in the live servers with the November or December patch.

Or

How the community has so enthusiastically and unanimously embraced Russ's bucket combining and planet limiting proposals for CW to such an extent that with next months patch CW will consist of only Clan mercs vs IS mercs with loyalists being able to only observe matches through a live twitch feed which will cost 15MC per day to access.

or

More drop decks may now be purchased over and above the two extra previously offered. Each drop deck will be sold on an exponentially increasing cost basis to limit their impact on server performance.

Clan mastery packs, like the IS mastery packs? Why did they never do this one anyway?

Maybe, but hardly seems worth making a special announcement when we already know it is coming. Hoping this is something new we haven't heard about.

[FupDup]

I can guess that it will not be a new light mech.

Mastery packs have a hero and a champion.

The first champion clan mechs showed up about a year ago. We only have 3 clan hero mechs.

I wonder if it might be something that is long overdue: MC cost update for mechs. Buying mechs for MC is a really bad deal compared to the new mech pack and mastery bundle pricing. Lowering MC cost would help sell future heros as well as renew interest in existing ones.

Never gonna happen. Imagine the outcry of those who purchased at the old, higher prices recently...within the last year...ever. Prices may go up, they aint ever going down.
