Too bad I'm still not spending. It could be a good deal.

Does anyone remember the time when there were random weekends with increased c-bill income or double experience? Or that they gave us free premium for valentine's day?

I wonder why there's nothing for launch.

they did sales like this before launch why would they stop afterwards?


I wouldn't. The pattern has been set for quite some time. I suppose I had the idea of something a little more celebratory given this is launch week, especially considering the lackluster "launch" itself.

Then again, they say launch is really just a "line in the sand", and this just goes to prove it.

Even Call of Duty has double-XP weekends.

Call. of. Duty.

I'd buy a statue if it displayed battle damage as my mech got damaged, sort of like a reversed Clash of the Titans reference.

The value of premium has dropped so much, why bother?

Off-topic, but what's this about HBKs? I fly 2 regularly and I have no issue there.


landing spots for your shots are shifted towards the north, so if you shoot looking east lasers will land to the left of the crosshair and to the right if you are looking west. Best you can get out from the support is "it's a known issue" that ti might not be critical but it's ridiculous that is still there after more than 1 year, untouched.

It was a long time since I piloted an HBK (4P) and yesterday I had for a league match and the aim was still off. So that was my first harshy comment that came out of me when seeing this wonderful sale.

This is your idea of Chaos? I was really hoping for a "spend 4mil c-bills and we'll give you something, might be a color, might be a mech, might be a mech bay" you know, something random or (gasp) chaotic?!

I´m tiered of complaining... but let me say one more thing:

Maybe you Guys remember the time, where we wrote in this forum what we would "pay for".
I know a lot of people who spend about 1000 bucks for World Of Tanks or LOL... so its not bad to ask what we want.

I see after all that time which passed... we got everything - we never asked for.

Think about it.


I call this myself: Knowledge-resistant

You had to waste time and effort on coming up with flashy button art, and a meaningless name for a sale? 3 days after the "huge" launch day? Walmart comes up with better names for sales than that {Scrap}.


Could of just said, Here's a mixed assortment of stuff we're putting on sale today. Would've been more clever to call it a "Garage Sale" since we have "garages/bays" that we fill with all sorts of stuff, hell you could've made mechbays %50 off. But hey I spent atleast 60 seconds putting thought into that name.

This is the best sale since... who am I kidding... I stopped giving feedback in these threads because the sales are disappointing. Heck, many people have given feedback of the best sales options (colors being #1), but screw that... because people buying camos won't notice the ninja payment requirements of buying the camo's special colors... which increases the overall MC cost of the purchase.

You'd think there was someone saying something positive about this sale (and not being completely sarcastic)... I guess the silent majority have spoken.

This sale is disappointing. It is hardly a chaos sale.

A true chaos sale: All mechs (except Hero variants) and camo patterns 50% off.

In "support" of the sale, I will spend 5,869,247 C-bills for the C4.

Chaos Theory has taught me that I'd make back on my investment and then some, or coincidentally I have yet to finish off grinding the Catapult-C4.
