as excited as i am to see the clans get rolling....the game's development is still lacking behind. until i see some serious changes to the balancing, matchmaker, community warefare and a polished and intuitive UI 2.0, i won't consider buying a bundle. i would also like to see an adjustment in bundle size and prices. the fans favorite mechs are up in the most expensive bundles which requires a very big investment

[SteelWarrior]

Can i buy a $500 mech without the tacky gold paintjob?

[Shredhead]

You know what's really sad? Thirteen and a half hours after the loooooooooooooong awaited announcement of the clans, 90 pages in the thread, the opening post has 11 likes. Eleven.

You done ****** it up again.

Why would one even get a Masakari pack? MWO ruined PPCs with ghost heat and huge heat build up especially on the ER PPC. Isn't the strength of the offered pack to give the primary configuration? Now guess what, the Masakari's Prime has FOUR ER PPCs. Now that's totally viable with ghost heat eh? 240 dollars for an unplayable unit? PGI is trolling.

no. I run a 4 ERPPC stalker. Works just fine. The bigger question is why buy all those mechs since they don't have jumpjets

Also, note - 3 VARIANTS just like Project Phoenix. So, not true "omnimechs" then? I thought the clan mechs were going to be one (probably expensive) base model and then free-for all hardpoints...

Guess I was wrong?

YES, INDEED! WTH is this? We want omnimechs; not cash-grabmechs with VARIANTS.
VARIANTS are for freebirths. Explain to me how an Omni-mech has variants.
Does PGI mistake me for an inner sphere surat?!?
I am not even STARTING about ridiculous sham for prices. You could ban me for it if I do. Just one word:
PREPOSTEROUS!

Not $500 good, but a hell of an expirence if you could get it for less then that.....

yeah in all honestly i'd take my risks on a used copy so i could spend the rest of the 500 on a projector to play it on a wall or something.

Dear DEVS and PGI i would really, really buy clan mech (especially that shiny, cute, overpowered slurp.... Timberwoolf). When i seen content of what you are offering. But well my scrooge soul just wake up immediately with red flags, sins, and lights in my head because.... WHAT IF YOU JUST THROW AWAY YOUR PLANS ON RELEASING CW TILL CLANS APPEAR BECAUSE YOU HAVE DIFFICULTIES. I supported this game from the beginning and I have an impression that this game haven't seen progress even a little bit. BY PROGRESS I MEAN developing new in game mechanics not content. CW, new GAME MODES, where is all this. I would gladly pay for what you are offering right now but. I say this with my heart bleeding. I CAN'T TRUST YOU ANYMORE. Not till you give us something that will regain OUR trust.

We are once again waiting for a feature set that has been promised many different times, but all we seem to get is money grabbing mechs and no content.

For 2 years, 2 effin years, PGI has effed this community over and over again!

Hey, I was stupid, nah, ******** enough to support this company even as much as I have already, but, boy, I'm not THAT ******** to continue to do so ANY further. Despite the 200 Dollars American I wasted on those ***holes I will actually be happy when this company dies off with the typical pathetic forum post announcing what a great ride this game has been for them, etc., etc., etc.

[Scryed]

lol clan mechs and still 2 game modes..........



LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL




and then have the nerve to charge hundreds of dollars..............LOLOLOLOL hope ya'll get your money cause I forsee lots of people dropping you like expensive cigarettes




LOL still 2 game modes...........DA FUQ

1. Armament clans will have a longer range than the sphere?
2. Clan Mech an XL-engine continues to fight if he will make a side torso?

If the answer in both cases - NO, in the *** this clan pack.

[ImagineDwagons]

No CW and other content development for months. Only new mechs and mechs and mechs...

Another fanbase robbery campaign has started.

[KnightWing]

So as a largely silent Founder (who hardly plays anymore - the occasional match is mildly entertaining, but I get bored quickly), I'm just flabbergasted by this... I saw it on another forum and actually had to visit the Clans page for myself to believe it...it's just absurd to me that more and more premium cash mechs are released with zero new content as far as gameplay. Every update to this site anymore is another sale/cash grab (and now mostly pre-orders). Aside from an occasional skirmish, there's simply nothing to *DO* in world. It's all meaningless...and it looks like it will continue to be for a long time. Even what few plans I've seen for CW have been unimpressive at best. What's the point of a gold, premium ubermech of your very favorite chassis when there's nothing you can do with it except pointless DM/CTF?

I honestly can't fathom people NOT seeing this is a cash grab and nothing but, and I'm very disappointed in the direction PGI/IGP has gone with this title. I bought quite a few hero mechs when they first started selling them to support the game; I stopped spending cash on this title months ago and have no plans to again unless things seriously turn around (which I'm frankly very skeptical can even happen at this point). Much more focused on Star Citizen for now, and Elite Dangerous is looking pretty great too from the Alpha (which already has tight joystick controls and several single player missions)...

I can't fathom this project surviving much longer if those in charge continue doing what they/re doing. I wish everyone the best and hope I'm wrong...but really, it's past the danger zone at this point...

[ChapeL]

I'm seeing this announcement in a fairly good light. One the one hand I am given 7 months of advance notice to start putting 30$ aside per month for the package I would likely want. One the other hand, PGI now has 7 more months to to get Community Warfare out there in a workable/enjoyable fashion. I won't be spending a dime on the game until that time. Not out of anger but simply because that money is going into the "Bull Frog wants a timber Wolf" (and that is DAMN expensive) fund.

"If you build it, it ( the money) wil come... barring any unforceen RL calamity of course

Basically, my financial backing is conditional on the game's key features being implemented and stable before next July

The abyss between game development and milking the community is now close to the diameter of the grand canyon... sad pgi... sad.

Man you were lucky I even got the elite founder, good thing it was a present to me and I actually didn't pay for it.
