Arg! You just convinced me to get a spare 300XL! Darn you... but the ONLY reason I'm doing it is because I still have the ~4900 MC left-over that'll be needed for the Hero JagerMech. I assume that's coming Soon™, right? Right!?

I looked at how many XL's I owned the other day. sheesh. All from accidental purchases. To bad I couldn't sell them to other players at discounted only dropped one prices.

[BladeXXL]

right... 40$ for a single mech is to much.
The most full games I bought last 10 years were below this price.

I have 25MC left... and still keep waiting for a MC offer! ^^

They have to simple options:
1. Could drop the price on MC Bundles.
2. Give more MC per bundle and keep prices the same.

Something!!?!!? Anything?!~!?

Soooo, now you have tested the waters can we have the real sale? Pleaseee.

[Deathlike]

I'm kinda scratching my head on the mech choices, as the Cent-AL isn't traditionally viable. I mean, you can put PPCs/LLs on them, but then you'd have to treat the build like a YLW...

But more importantly... no Cicada on sale? The 3M probably would be ideal, but even the 2A/2B would actually get some sales. The Cicada-3C will still be the difficult sale though...

I have yet to touch any of my MC. Nothing has tickled me in my special place to get me to spend any.

[Appogee]

A sale on three Mechs which are pretty much useless due to the current Heavy/Assault-biased metagame?

Well, it's certainly ''madness'' ... though not in the way you intended.

It's only good if the Wang is on sale too.

Worse, no discounted price for the pattern for Cicadas either.

What's up with that? Been lookin forward to cheaper patterns for my Cicada's for a while now since its about the only mech that a permanent buy would actually be useful since there are so many Cicadas (plus my X-5). But noooo, Cicada's aint good enough to be part of a sale.

I know. This is all an attempt to keep Garth and his beautiful neon pink Cicada down.

It is Garth, right? I cant remember who pilots the Cicada, but there is one and its all a plot to keep the Cicada's down.

Down with the oppressors! Up with Cicada's!

[Deathlike]

Blame Garth for not including a Cicada for sale. BURN THE CICADAMOBILE!

Well, people seem to buy those like crazy, so the price tag is just about right or even too cheap.

Of cause from a player's perspective hero mechs can't be cheap enough. But the devs have to sell something and as long as players are buying expensive stuff, they will of cause stick to their price policy. We both would probably do the same in their position

And i too wait for some MC sale or at least a mechbay sale. It's about time for one of those.

And if you are patient you can combine an mc sale with a hero mech sale.
And suddenly they get quite affordable

Most prices for 'luxury' goods are initially very high. It's because there are lots of 'impatient' (and/or 'trendy') guys who want the product NOW and are willing and able to pay absurd prices.

But nearly every product (be it a game, a mobile phone or a hero mech) eventually gets a discount to sell the stuff to the more patient 'best-bang-for-your-bucks'-guys.

Are you reading this PGI? MC promo next weekend?

[Chavette]

I usually look forward to the color sales... but there wasn't any... oh well.

[PoLaR]

If you don't like the sale then don't participate In It. Simple.

Any sale is better than none!

Three out of nineteen medium mechs on sale is madness? Seriously? "But wait, there's more! You can now own the worst "camo" we have to offer!"

haha

NO SOUP MC FOR YOU!

Yeah, the only good use I've seen of mountain camo is the dude with the Mexican awesome.
