Greetings MechWarriors! We know you're super excited about our Project Phoenix news, but we have even more stuff to show! Well, to give you. For MC. In this case, fifty (yes, half!) off three of our trial Mechs! Featuring the Spider SDR-5D, AKA, The Most Annoying Mech To Face In MWO. Have you ever wanted to have less than a third the health of an Atlas, but require three Atlai to bring down? This is your Mech! Next up, presenting the Cataphract CTF-4X, AKA, Holy Crap Is That Four AC5's Where Is My Armour Argh I'm Dead. Bring absolute horror onto your opponents - look no further! Other times though, you want to relax. Turn the throttle decay off and just cruise at 48.6 KPH. Occasionally fire off four arm-mounted large lasers. Maybe a gauss shot every once in awhile. Light nipping at your heels? Maybe you put some Streak SRM 2's on there. Whatever man, it's up to you. What are you doing this in? Why, the Atlas AS7-RS, AKA, 'That Four Energy Hardpoints In The Arms Atlas'. Specifics:

• SDR-5D, regular 1015 , now 507
• CTF-4X, regular 2095 , now 1047
• AS7-RS, regular 3745 , now 1872

So pick a speed, pick your style, and there's a 50% off Trial Mech just waiting for you! Cheers, The MechWarrior Online Team

What happened to adding stuff to sales for established players?

[ICEFANG13]

Stream SRMs, lolololol

[Gnume]

What is a Stream SRM2? And they look to be 50 percent off (which is much better than just fifty)! I know, I know ... grammar and semantics .... who knew words make such a difference

They did release a statement regarding Sarah's Mech; this is their first Official Charity Event, so they are taking extra time to make sure all of the formal/legal paperwork is filed properly in order to comply with Canadian and as many international laws as possible. They are very sorry for the Delay, but they want to make sure that no legal harm comes from such a charitable event. The official thread for Sarah's Mech is here.




Oh, and the "m" key is right next to the "k" key...

No, you need to get 3 different variants to elite the chassis.

[GRIMM11]

Yawn.

[Bobdolemite]

You guys need to find a way for matches in progress to not be interrupted by these updates. Its a little frustrating to be dropped from the middle of a game for a sale (no content update whatsoever) Somehow every single time it happens its in the middle of a great match!

food for thought. Now show me the damn Battlemaster so I know if I am spending 80 bucks on this firechicken project.

(Not complaining. Just saying. Please discount premium time, mech credits, and paints, thanks.)

I would only buy a Sarah mech at this point. But honestly I wont even do that. game is completely broken. Today so far 1 win 29 losses. Oh and the win came because I got paired with a team. No pugs left either running solo get lots more failed to find a match.. Sure all the noobs joining will stick around to maybe grind minimal xp every 10 minutes. Pretty soon it will be down to just kill teams and exploit warriors who are heavily invested int he game. Everyone else will give up. Good money after bad. Thats what this is.

[jk781]

Holy Crap..
Why are people always complaining about these sales..
No one forces you to buy something so chill dudes...
You can be sure, there will be a sale that's interesting for you in the next weeks.
So please for the love of god stop whining..

Canada Day weekend and 4th of July - you missed a huge sales opportunity. ..

Ideas that could have been:

- The "Patriot Camo", in two different models - one for Canada, one for US - heck, throw Britain a bone...
- Red/White/Blue color sale <- I was REALLY expecting that one...
- Cockpit Banner Flags

I would have been all over it. As it is my buddy and I run two Murmets (from the last sale) with Red and White and call ourselves the Canadian Murmets.

[AlmightyAeng]

No 4th of July Sherman camo sale? Surprising.

[Koniving]

In comparison, the Phoenix stuff is far better (of course).

I think some patterns for these chassis would have gone a long way to relinquishing the death-grip some players have on their MC (patterns for the Atlas and Cataphract are especially in high value, and a sale on spider camos would definitely be worth a buy or two from me.)

Still if one could simply spend MC on anything that is displayed, then the Atlas RS is worthwhile. The cbill grind to get it is a bit long without premium and the mech is a really good money maker. It is the most valuable unit listed here.

With 17 trips as a stock build, then various joke builds, and finally one I settled on with intentional weaknesses such as 1 rear armor for all torsos and a slow XL 320 engine (to make up for having cheesey meta weapons), in addition to the delays of 3 and 4 seconds to recycle I've managed these stats.
Kills: 141 Deaths: 75 KDR: 1.88. That's in 128 matches. I've had it for a little less than a month and I'm not even much of an Atlas pilot as I prefer lights, mediums and heavies.
