The Cicada-3M and Jenner-Fs are excellent Mechs, by the way.

Proof once again that some people will ***** about anything.

Actually, it's more like "... some people will ***** about the same thing over and over again".
You know, seeing how the bitching is always about the same things not being implemented/fixed/whatever.

Hopefully PGI will take the hint and get the lead out.

Very nice sale. I'm not sure if Marky Mark would approve, but the Funky Bunch would be all over this!

I will go ahead and make a plug to the devs for a Thanksgiving weekend tournament and/or challenge for next weekend. I hope to log some serious MWO time once the turkey coma wears off!

Oh hell yeah! This is much better than UI2.0 or CW! You know what, I don't even need any communication from you guys, just keep doing these sales!!!!!!111!!!!!11!!!1!!!

^ This (kind of {Scrap} is getting very annoying)!!!

I'm guessing that once these people that keep complaining about not having these items actually get them, they will then complain about how they aren't the perfect versions they each had in their heads. I never post because this community just seems to always want to complain about something (and it is generally not constructive at all).

Everything can't be perfect for everyone all the time, if you hate everything that is going on sooooo much then you always have the option to quit playing (and complaining).

Anyways, great sale! I have been waiting for a purple sale and double XP conversion.

Just my luck. I bought an Awesome 9M today. For the full price.

Thanks Corky, you've used all the exclamation points on the internet for the day, now what am I going to use for punctuation for my happiness that finally Marik get's some love.

Have you tried Decaf?

[42and19]

It needed to be linked.

Also, thanks for the love to marik!

WOOOOOO!!!!!!!

(what happens if I go over the allowed limit roadbeer?)

This is a repeat of a sale late last year..purples yellows four mechs ( I own btw) so nothing for me and I'm starting to wonder at the turn over in people playing as PGI seem to think straight repeats of sales are viable, second or third I recognise since june last year

Bought with MC?
Cause the sale this weekend is only for MC pricing..

You can email support and they will give you a one-time price matching if you bought it with MC

[sC4r]

i find this thing curious though

cicada 3M MC price - 2840
cicada X5 MC price - 3000

so a normal mech costs pretty much the same as premium... there s gotta be something wrong here
(possible fix make x5 more expensive )

otherwise nice sale

[Roadbeer]

Equipment wise, the 3M and X5 are fairly similar

The MC cost is based upon weight, so it should be exactly the same, actually. Maybe that is just hero mechs, but I think it is true of all MC priced mechs.

There are only so many colours, you are complaining that they repeat going on sale sometimes?


You should email support, and see if they can contact you before each sale to make sure it's only on things that you don't have!

yea for removable equipment that is true
except x5 also has ff and endo which is another curious thing which never goes into consideration when selling(or buying) mechs
so kinda curious that the +30%creds/xp/unique skin is worth+ those upgrades are worth 120mc

that is true only for heroes for normal mech this isnt so prices vary among the variants... though i got no idea how it is for champions

I was afraid of that. Is it based upon the cost (a set cbill to Xp conversion rate), maybe?

Yes, normal variants have some arcane algorithm and gut-feeling math in their MC pricing, Champions simply cost 10% more MC than the normal variant but with a VASTLY better MC:C-bill ratio due to the many upgrades.
