Okay. So I guess they mean "we'll include colors in the Phoenix package". May be good to point that out on the comm.

Why does everyone keep calling the Orange color Red?

I couldn't resist

I like camp-cots mounted on shoulders of Phoenix Shadow Hawk. Looks like a good mech for vacation.
But I am not spending anything on MWO until hit detection is fixed.

I have been truly impressed by each mech design put forth by PGI and their art team. I may not like the mech, but the designs and art are really nice and top notch.

I bought the Overlord Package (with the bonus time premium time) and then they throw in some more goodies. Nice touch PGI.

From the looks of the scale (Phoenix Loyalty rewards), they may NOT be done. There may yet be more goodies on the horizon.

Very happy about this project. Looking forward to seeing those mechs show up in my mech bays. Techs and engineers are already working overtime trying to keep my rigs running. They are really gonna scream when 12 more show up all at once. I and sensing a strike....

I'd love to be able to (legally) break into people's houses and measure the color accuracy, contrast, etc of people's monitors so I can find out once and for all if a vast swath of the population is actually color perception impaired or if most people have cheapo monitors.

Hey guys, I'm having trouble finding the numbers for our progress or the threshold for the stretch goals. Can anybody else find the sales figures or monetary limits for these? I don't see the markers anywhere, we're just 45% of the way through Phase 2.

In fact, we know we're 45% of the way through because the image for that is hardcoded to https://static.mwome...lty_2_45_on.jpg

I don't see images for any other percent completion values or automated callbacks. This seems awfully arbitrary.

Are we truly 45% of the way through Phase 2?
How many more packages do we need to purchase to finish it?
Is the lowest-level pack equivalent to the highest-level pack as far as moving this along?

I already have the PC Gamer skin colors so I don't really care too much about the paints.

Quoting did for posterity, and also so I can fix the formatting on that url you putz.

Spoiler

AAAAND they decide not to add the energy based versions of the Shadow Hawk instead of fixing the ******* PPC "problems" that makes everyone on this forum (except me it seems) cry out in fury.
Well I guess I wont be getting my Kuritan Shadow Hawk with shoulder mounted lasers then....
Sigh...
There goes atleast half my motivation for the overlord package I bought...
Well I suppose I can always run the risky way and play with a gauss and an XL for funz and giggles.
I wonder how often I am gonna die to that. :b

Rampant color blindness? Terrible monitors? Admittedly, it's a hot orange, but it's clearly nothing whatsoever like the PC Gamer Red.

You'd be surprised. One of my guildmates in WoW who was our main tank always had problems with circles on the ground. Come to find out, he was playing on a 17" Tube in 2009 when I had just ordered this:

http://www.newegg.co...N82E16824116401

that repalced a 19" Samsung LCD that I purchased in 2006 or 2007. Still using that Viewsonic to this day. Samsung and Viewsonic make damn fine monitors.

Failing some official announcement, I'd assume you get the colors when the Pack is delivered (oct 15).

[Levi Porphyrogenitus]

Thanks, PGI! This was unexpected and most welcome.

Damnit! I knew I should have bought some yellow while it was on sale.

The phoenix colours are still close enough to make a YF-19 bird of prey

[Mike Getsome]

No numbers of the ones who bought, no badges on forums. I call bs.

And show me the statistics of how many founders bought phoenix? 10%? Huh?

[YellaChicken]

More colours are always welcome, thx PGI
