I've added the patchnotes below to tide you over until the servers come back up, and will be updating this post when that happens. See you starside!AND WE ARE LIVE![/color]
UPDATE
Greetings MechWarriors!
Our Black Friday sale is over and your MC stockings must be full. To fix that, I give you the first patch of December as we head into the holiday season.
Finally “Oxide” the Jenner hero is here! Having a 30% C-bill boost on a Jenner is like a license to print C-bills! Buy some Premium time and you will become a C-billionaire* in no time! I only hope this falls into the right hands and that you use these powers for good and not evil.
Our newest Champion is a Highlander and it joins the Ranks of the Trial ‘Mechs. Try it out all week and see if this build is for you. It goes on Sale on Dec 10th and will be loaded with a 10% XP boost. If you were planning on mastering your Highlanders this month, this is the perfect way to get it done.
If you are feeling festive we have a bunch of new holiday themed Items! If you see something you like, buy it! These cockpit items are seasonal.
Spawn points have been redistributed on Most maps and in some cases the spawns change depending on mode. For some maps this is really going to shake things up.
Hit box fixes Round 2! Dragons, Centurions, Cicadas, Trebuchet, and Atlas’! Is there an old favorite in there? A ‘Mech you have been meaning to master? Either way you need this info, If you aren’t piloting one of them, you’re sure to be shooting at them!
See you on the battlefield.

*there are currently no C-Billionaire’s in the game
