I hope they use this money to make additional maps and game modes which is desperately needed.

I would put CW well above maps...

I don't know how you guys think this is a money grab, these are just like any other hero mech released every month. custom hardpoints, custom paint job, bonus c-bills. The only difference is you have to buy them all at once. But at the end of the day each of these mechs (except the hero) is available for FREE.

Personally my biggest issue is going to be the huge change in art design. Everything that made is a Shadowhawk a Shadowhawk, and a Battlemaster a Battlemaster is gone. I just don't know if I can pilot a Battlemaster Bassterd. But I guess I will have to wait until they release the concept art to see.

Wow, after reading the FAQ it seems PGI will deny every one not paying into this the mechs until a later date ????? They are actively holding back content ??? i must pay another $80 on top of my $220 already spent ????
I'm glad to see some re-seens and its great news but i do not agree with this aprouch. I cant justify spending any money on this crap.
I cant even use my Heavy metal and some of the founders mechs because of the violent jj shake. Its even gettin to the stage where ill get pissed of that someone else can jj with out it affecting them physicaly.
I love stompy robots, i hope PGI sort there **** out soon

seems like they are going with complete redesigns? at least for the locust

Heck yes! Alex seems to have a pure platinum virtual design pen that drips solid gold ink and transforms mundane mechanical creations into spectacular stomping titans of awesomeness. I'll take his designs any day.

So the real question - Is there any MC associated with this or just mechs because without getting any MC - The mechs alone are not worth the price in my book even if you get several. The founders packs all included MC and from what I see - these do not.

I know the FAQ says that the Locust will be available to everyone on October 15 (with the other 'mechs being doled out in the months afterward), but where does it say that Project Phoenix purchasers get everything on the same date?

From the FAQ:

Q: Will the entire collection of items in each package (ie - Mechs, Badges, Medallions etc) be delivered all on the same date or will different items be provided at different dates?
A: All package contents will be delivered on Oct 15th.

There was a huge thread a while back where a majority of the posters, even some die hard pgi criticizers, suggested that the pay for content early method of monitization was not only fine, but an excellent idea to make money and still not be p2w.

No MC, however, 12 mech bays, lets say 8 are able to be kept if I sell the standard variants that is 2,400 in mc. Not much for the premium time since I still have my 3 months founders banked, more time isnt a bad thing. Still, then 4 hero mechs (founders variety) and the other variants early is a temping offer. Also, faction tag bonus doesn't wow me since im in a merc corp. However, personally, I am gonna wait but i'm interested.

edit: want to hear more but maybe the colors released with the hero mechs will also be useable on other mechs.

Really? You see it as denying people something instead of giving people an incentive to do something? No one is denying anything. If you expect people to give you some cash, you have to do something in return for them to part with it. Entitlement these days.

Correct, no MC. Just the mechs and mech bays and medallions.

So do I get that right?
For a mere 80 bucks (which is for me 56 euro) I get 4 Heromechs (which are by the way 4 mechs I really loved to see in the game), 8 Standardmechs, 120 days premium time, 4 loyaltybonus badges for my cockpits and a (sorry but pretty useless) forum title?
This adds up to 12 mechs with 12 mechbays and 120 days premium (the rest is in my opinion just bonus stuff).
Did I get that right?
Because if I got that right that would be pretty amazing.

[Too Much Love]

I bought the Overlord package, but I don't see any signs that my payment was processed.

I mean I received message from PayPAl saying it was OK, but there are no signs on the forum and no signs in my profile. How can I confirm that it's ok and was taken into account?

Thx.

[Beef Hands]

No.

yep, just not sure if it converts like that to euros.

also get it all on Oct 15, other than the locust get each next mech 1-3 months ahead of schedule.
