So the upcoming Phoenix variants have a loyalty bonus. My question is whether this is something that Hero mechs and/or the original founders mechs may also get? As community warfare was something that was already announced and discussed during closed beta, it would seem a little odd that mechs people had spent good money on in the past would be excluded from this bonus that seems fairly important to the core gameplay aspect of MWO...

I can't imagine PGI reworking the Hero/Founder bonuses because of the Phoenix Mechs. It would be an awesome tip of the hat to the people helping fund the game, but I think alot of people would scream pay to win again.

Its the same small group of people screaming p2w over and over again each time PGI does something. Most people would just think adding the bonus to heroes and founders pretty cool.

The loyalty bonuses sound like it's a prepared feature, I highly doubt they'd let hero and founders to go empty handed. I imagine that once CW is implemented, all mechs with a bonus will be tweaked.

The LP bonus gives them the opportunity to produce a whole new kind of MC variant, or even faction mechs with a specific faction LP bonus. I doubt hero/founder mechs will ever see the bonus because of this. I'd like them too of course, but I doubt it.
