Theres nothing wrong with releasing the hero a few weeks earlier. It's not really pay for power unless the mech is legitimately superior to anything else in the slot (it will never be at this point) and it just helps boost the interest and value of the hero mechs for a little bit.

This is a silly overreaction, save your hate and ire for consumables, a legitimate unbalancing pay to win system.

Holy Horse Friggin Crapcicle. We actually agree on something. Which means OP your post is more flawed than even you could ever know.

I love PGI just because they gave us the ability to endlessly reference this movie.

You....don't already have it?

Yeah I was gonna say. Releasing the hero mech before the regular variant is such a money grab. But honestly it's their prerogative to do things like this as a Free to play game. Riot releases new champions at a higher IP cost then drops the price the following week. Because they know people want them and some of them are more willing to pay real money to not wait.

Still it's only fair that we gun down as many of these wallet warriors as possible. ¬_¬

I'm glad they released the hero Mech before the other chassis,I love assault and heavy's,this way I can get the Hero mech and buy two other variants later instead of mastering 3 variants then purchasing the hero mech lateron to grind away on it.

I'm actually okay with this as a less-abusive monetization strategy.

I agree... it encourages purchase of the hero mech, without denying the community of anything. Early adopters have to pay, but could get the same thing in two weeks for c-bills.

I don't really have any problem with anything in this game, but it feels a bit unfair that a Hero mech is released before regular variants.

So today I am proposing

OPERATION HIGHLANDER: THERE CAN ONLY BE NONE.

Anyone sighted in the pink "HEAVY METAL" hero mech, we focus fire till they go down.

We scout for them we find them we kill them and spoil some people's day yes, but its IN PROTEST

It should be held back till another after the regular variants IMO.

How Old are you?

What a stupid idea.

No it just means that even a broken clock (you) can be right twice a day.

Perfectly fine with Hero mechs coming out first, it will REALLY drop the amount of "QQ, hit box is (too big, too small)" as those who are paying for it are likely to provide more specific input than some random with a bunch of CBills to spare.

Nothing to see here.

Better to release Hero variant before regular than to erase regular variant to make Hero more "unique"

I don't just hate all the time, I almost always say reasonable things with good reasoning behind them. I don't take crap from sycophants and I don't accept backhanded praise from them used to flame either.
