I might consider getting the Wolvie and Griff.

Who knows, they'll look good in a fresh coat of Steiner blue paint.

Those new Saber mechs are rather pretty

[Alpha087]

Any word on what the deadline for buying into one of the packages is yet? Still saving up so I can get my hands on the Overlord, but want to make sure I either have the funds ready for it in time, or that I get a cheaper one so I don't miss out on the other mechs.

[Mycrus]

it is going to run for a long time... i don't see them cancelling these soon..

Same here. There seems to be some screwy things going on with the website tonight. It looks like the phoenix cockpit item is unlocked but who knows. In the morning it should be fixed and we'll see if it really is.

I'm saying that as someone who holds the original 3025 TRO with the unseen mechs as my favourite Battletech book ever

Everyday, I'd like to be able to come into the forums and click Like This for this sentence alone! The 3025 TRO is still my fave as well. Got mine back in the late 80's and I don't think I'll ever part with it.

Come on folks... keep your purchases coming in. Why should buy?

• You help the Devs continue funding the game
  
• You get tons of 'Mechs + 'Mechbays
  
• You get special perks for Project Phoenix
  
• + Spend extra for the Saber Reinforcements!
  
• And hopefully we can all have a cool Flame pattern!
  
• And I think this is a better deal than the Founder's Program!

Most of all... more giant-robot-stomping-nerve-pounding-fun! LOL!
Happily waiting on my Overlord+Saber package

So uhhh, I just got overlord package. Aren't I suppost to get 90 days premium and some paints? Or does this have to do with the email address I entered when purchasing?

If you bought a Phoenix package, everything you bought (minus the 'Early Bird' premium time and Sabre reinforcements) comes Oct. 15. If you bought a Project Phoenix during the 'Early Bird' promotion (before July 25), the 'Early Bird' Premium Time* was added on the next weekly maintenance after you bought the package.

* = 'Early Bird' Premium Time is separate from the Premium Time that comes with the package on Oct. 15.

You may want to read the Project Phoenix FAQ for more information.

At least we all know that they can still make money from disgruntled founders and Battletech fans, and they don't need to deliver game balance quality. We'll spend 80 $ on our chance to drive an "Unseen" mech, eve though we all like to hyperbole the game won't even survive 6 months into release.

I feel dirty now.


Unless many of us end up not buying.

Yeah, I bought the Legendary Founder's pack because I really enjoy the BT franchise. But after so many changes that they said they would not do, pfft.

And I have to spend another $50 to get the Wolverine? Cant use MC?

No, thanks.

I was going to as well, but then I read that right column and noticed that you have to buy another tier first (min $20) so that is $50 for what? That is the price of another AAA title game.

I get that F2P business models use their core fans to finance the game for the casual players. But that is like buying another game. And check my avatar, Legendary Founder here, cant figure why I should give you another $50?

When are the Clan MEchs coming out anyway?

ANd what's up with the Launch Bonus? Oh, wait...

No, thanks.

Or, you could just wait until March and buy a Wolverine for Cbills. Although if you're dead set on using MC, I'm sure it will be available for MC in March as well.

The first four are available to the package buyers Oct 15.
The Griffin and Wolverine are due out Dec 15
If you don't buy any of the packages you will have access to the first mech in Oct, second mech in Nov, etc.
The fancy colored versions with c-bill/loyalty bonuses are only available with these packages.

[Magitek]

I bought the Saber Reinforcement pack. Is it December 17th yet? Anyways, when I saw the specs on those mechs, I couldn't resist. Being able to go well over 100 kph with 7 jump jets will be fun.

For $110 it's a stupid good package. Any person that had 120 and missed the founders package should pick this up immediately if they are so inclined.
