Has there been any artwork at all showing what this Jenner will look like? I tried following a couple of links posted a couple pages ago, but didn't see anything. If nothing has been shown yet, then I can wait until the 23rd and the patch! Still ready to add this mech to my hangar.

Just came across this thread today ...

Rest in peace little Sarah.
Fare thee well, noble warrior.

I totally approve a donation project, just please don´t give it a child´s name as we are supposed to shoot it ...
Get em good!

and after this debacle there will never be a charity event again. ( I hate legal systems )

Legal systems are what keep people from setting up charities and just pocketing the money. Stop being dumb.

never been a scout, or even really a raven fan but i will certainly be purchaseing this mech when its made available. supporting ths cause in all its many forms is very crucial, kudos PGI for taking the time and steps to do so.

My deepest condolences to the family, no parent should have to bury their child.

I had a weird dream this morning that Sarah's mech was a brand new chassi with a tank lower body and a regular/hominid upper body; kinda like an Armored Core.

Weird.

UPDATE:
We have worked through the legal and infrastructural challenges that were blocking this special charity 'Mech from becoming available. Sarah's Mech is now scheduled for arrival on the patch of the 23rd of July, 2013.


Would you mind reconfirming the dates of the patch? Russ' twitter stream earlier today suggested that the next couple of patches will be on 16 and 30 July 2013.

Would Sarah's Jenner come in one of the two scheduled patch dates, or in a extra one dated for 23 July 2013?

Can you please make her mech broken? Like, give it ALL the hardpoints or something. I think it would get more people to buy one. And hey, it's a Jenner, how bad could it break the game at this point?

While I understand that there legal issues with a fundraiser like that, I think, at some point, the game should have support for charitable sales built in. Set an example. Make it easier for us to give you our money.

Thanks for the information. This is a great Idea and realisation.

How long will the "Sarah" Jenner be available for purchase and how high will the donation be for it? Also, what donation methods will be possible (if they are different to the regular MC or package purchasing options)?

I've posted the known information in our unit forums. So I just need this, so that I can update my post for the players in the Unit who do not understand English. :D

Thank you for your support.

This will be a completely separate donation system. MC may not be used to purchase Sarah's Mech. More information will come soon!

Thank you guys.

Sarah's family, I hope this helps a little, somehow.

Another unto dust.
Like is but a whim
blown on the wind
to aethers unknown

This realm just a passing
this time but a breeze
for some
but an eternity
for many

May you always be remembered
little fighter
you fought bravely
and unto the end

May you now take your leave
in the green fields
and wooded peaks
in the sparkling depths
and crystal pools
of the next world

your mortal remains
will be left to lie
your spirit
has flown
to better places yonder

RIP young one, may you always be remembered by all. BloodRose will honour you and your courage and bravery forever.
I salute you

THANK YOU so very much for the update!!

And just to say it again, when you buy the Sarah Mech thru the special purchase mechanism, you will not get the mech immediately!! Your name goes on a list, and a back-end process runs on a schedule to add mechs to accounts.

Viterbi: do we need to have an open mech bay? Or will the Sarah Mech "come with" its own bay? Thanks again!!

The (tentative) plan is to begin the sale on July 23. This will be an entirely different purchasing process taking place through our website instead of the game client (no game patch required). The Mech will be added to your account after purchase, similar to how the Project Phoenix promotion's 'early-bird' Premium Time is added during scheduled maintenance*. I will do my best to keep this thread informed of any announcements.

*I don't mean to imply that Sarah's Mech will be added during scheduled maintenance necessarily, though it will be added in a similar fashion (and it's likely that it will be at these times, just don't quote me on that because it's not confirmed).


I am pretty sure I have posted my thoughts and condolences. This still saddens my heart. I am a father 2 children one of them a doughter.

I will be making my donation for this very special mech. I care not for a hero mech or champion. I would rather the proceeds go to the family.

Again my condolences. She is up there watching your mech's 6

Condolences to the family. We lost my father-in-law to brain cancer. It is terrible when loved ones are taken from us too soon, even more tragic to lose a child. Especially one so young.

This is a great thing you are doing in her memory and I look forward to lending my support.

Viterbi: Little disappointed on the no MC thing, but do you have a tentative price range yet?
Really think this is a great cause. :huh:
