OK so here's the deal. The PC Gamer pattern was a limited time offer back from the early days of MWO, and was only made for the 'Mechs that were available at the time, which are the Commando, Jenner, Hunchback, Centurion, Catapult, Dragon, Awesome and Atlas. But, the colors, which was the original goal here, will work on all our 'Mechs.


TBH Y'all should let us have the PC gamer pattern

We are, but it only works on the Commando, Jenner, Hunchback, Centurion, Catapult, Dragon, Awesome and Atlas.

All right, thanks for the explanation.

As you can see, the 10k Match Score Woodland pattern with those three PC Gamer colours is very nice too:

That Black Widow decal is a nice touch.

Hey Daeron/Matt, if you're reading this can you please take a look at the Lucky Charms thread? Matt had said he'd extend that event for sure, but it didn't get extended.

I have an Atlas and a Centurion. They offer me the PC gamer camo...
If I once buy\win a Hunchie I would already have the PC gamer camo for it? Or the injected camo is valid for the already bought and used mechs?

The former. If you buy for example the Hunchback (or any other of those aforementioned eight BattleMechs), you will have the PC Gamer livery pattern available for it.

Ok trying to extend now. Web guy is off sick not sure how the lootbags will behave - but the in game portion should work.

Yes, I can confirm that this is how it works!

eg: I just got the PC Gamer Camo Unlock. I didn't have any Dragon variant at the time.
I then go and buy any Dragon variant afterwards.
I still get the PC Gamer Camo Unlock for the Dragon all its variants!

~PC Gamer Camo unlock for only on these eight (8) chassis and all its variants:
Commando, Jenner, Hunchback, Centurion, Catapult, Dragon, Awesome and Atlas.
(Edit: PC Gamer Camo apparently does not work on Founders Mechs)

Thank you, MWO for your generosity !!! Posted Image

We've sorted the color issue. Turns out the PC Gamer colors won't show up unless you have the PC Gamer pattern, so we've added the pattern to the rewards! We're also adding the pattern retroactively to all those who have already completed that step.
As a bonus, it's a way to obtain the pattern for everyone who missed out on it in last nine years or so... which is quite a few people.

Thanks @ P.G.I. for fixing and figuring out all the bugs related to the colors in this Event so fast! :)

I can't see the PC Gamer pattern even though I've redeemed it as part of the STRANDS OF STEEL objective. Is this a bug?

Just saw this. Thanks for the pattern and for keeping up the cadence of events and freebies. Much appreciated. o7
