Going for 1st Hero. Hesitant between Ilya Muromets and Firebrand. I'm used to Jager and love my DD but never piloted a Cataphract (maybe as a trial a few times, don't remember). How are hitbox? I remember it was pretty easy to hit the head of the Cata, are torsos exposed? Which one last longer in brawl? I know for the Jager so it will help saying which last longer.

Can't go wrong with either, my preference is the Ilya, love that mech so close it was released

Was debating Ilya or Highlander. Went Ilya. Now I can skip the 3D if I want to (I don't)

The Firebrand you can run nearly the same builds as the other Jagers, it just has more energy and energy in the arms. The Ilya is fairly unique and the only mech who can run 3 LB10X or AC10s.

I would appreciate it if you give discount on first launch. It is a reward for the early bird supporters. Your way of discount right now is just a dump of useless heroes (even some heroes here are good) and is a way of punishing the early bird supporters?

There's rarely an early bird discount unless it's to raise capital up front. That's why it pays to be patient.

YES! I was sad I missed the Wang sale about a month and a half ago, just mastered my cents so its time to pick up a YLW.

[Rhialto]

Thanks all, I will go with Ilya Muromets because I never ran the Cata (this mean will have to get Elite for 2) and as some of you pointed out, it has pretty unique configuration so it will be a lot different.

How is a XL in it? Are side torsos easy to hit?

[Bherek Mcdugan]

Dang it...just bought my Muromets two weeks ago. Oh well worth every penny imho. Now if I could only fit an AC20 into the Heavy Metal I would buy it up.

but due to hassle with how paysafecards work in germany (could use a disclaimer, i know PGI has nothing to do with it, but it could save german players some frustration) i could not buy enough MC

I had the same problem when I wanted to buy Sarah Jenner right after I had bought the Phoenix package. The payment system is only capable to do one transaction in one browser session. You need to close your browser and open it again to make a secound payment transaction with paysafecard and many other payment styles.

Good stuff, already had the Yen-lo (first mech I ever bought with mc's actually) but I picked up the others...

Such an awesome mech. I've got about 70K worth of extra mech experience on that thing and I see no reason to stop playing it. At least until next month when we (hopefully) are getting a Hunchback hero.

[Kes Moreau]

No Misery still. I was hoping it'd go on sale but it seems you want a Special Forces sale rehash instead of offering something new. It's like everything else in this game. Hurry up and wait.

[J0anna]

Ironic, I just bought the Firebrand 2 weeks ago, but have seriously been considering the Ilya and the Wang, sale came at just the right time for them.....

And I bought the firebrand a few days ago *facepalm*

Message support, they give you a 1 time "price match"

[MKOni]

Considering I loaded up on MC during the Black Friday sale with the express purpose of waiting for the Ilya and Firebrand to go on sale, I guess I'm pretty happy with this.

[Stefos]

Thanks for the chistmas presents

[Kaeseblock]

\m/

Nothing more to say ^^

[Geek Verve]

Nice sale. Already have them all but the Wang. Not really interested in that particular mech.

No colors on sale this week?

[Lance McRaven]

Have been waiting patiently for a sale on the two Dragon Hero's, the Fang and the Flame. Dragon is getting to be fun to play, with the new changes, but I am holding out for some kind of deal...

[Zeus X]

So another sale with the Wang, Heavy Metal, Muro, and Firebrand all within a 2 month span?

Seems PGI is getting desperate for money again!

Here's a tip for you guys, RELEASE CW and I promise you will get more money!

Hero Mechs are great! They earn you extra CBills so that you buy, umm, non-Hero Mechs more quickly..

Then, you use those non-Hero Mechs to umm, by other non-Hero Mechs, ummm, more slowly.

Then when you have all the Mechs, you umm, wonder what to do next.
