Everything for sale in Star Citizen can be earned in the game. Everything. There are no unique versions, ships, modules etc that only money can buy. Can't say that about MWO, now can you? So please don't spread misinformation.

Well... to be fair, there weren't any Hero mechs ins closed beta. Not a defense of PGI, but stop trying to make saints out of CIG.

I didn't say I'd buy it if it was a good variant. I said I'd buy it if it was sufficiently limited.

That's still a very dumb way of spending your money.

And I own a LOT of mechwarrior stuff.

[VIPER2207]

so, you are telling me, that you haven't even delivered the last pre-order packages completely (phoenix-ingame-batch, i'm looking at you again), but now you start a new (again totaly overprized) cash grab? And you do that, although you know that this game and his playerbase is dying?
seriously, PGI and IGP, i would really like to write some clear words here, but i'm not allowed to do that, half of them would be filtered out anyway.

Brace yourselves, if you do any mistakes with this (and sadly, we know you will), the plebs will roll through vancouver, armed with torches and pitchforks, right in front of your office.

You think so? I should hire you as my financial adviser.

i think a certain company must be desperate for money lol

Wow, is this for real

[PhobiaOne]

You notice how PGI puts this stuff out there on a Friday so they don't have to deal with the backlash for a few days. They will come in Monday, and MAYBE someone will notice there is rage from the community....but I doubt it.

[1xLocustx1]

So im not posting much at all but i have to say that this are some SERIOUS overpriced Packages. i want the Adder so bad but the price is ridicolous. i have to agree with most statements in this topic and i can fully understand the rage here.

i was truly thinking"is this a gag for Friday the 13th?" as soon as i saw the "gold" mechs i have never seen such a ridicolous offer at this Prices.

Hmm 500$, a Samsung Galaxy S4/S3 or a golden plated mech? what do you guys think?

Dont forget dear buyers. NO REFUND! If u get nothing in june except a SOON pleaso dont start whining all over the forums.

[Victor Morson]

What I don't get is how it's not really just straight up incompetence and it's NOT THE TEAM SIZE causing PGI's problems.

Just one look at how they handled 3rd person view from start to finish, including ignoring us screaming in their ear since the start of the game about it. They botched EVERY aspect. They STILL refuse to admit they were wrong from the get go.

Some people *cough cough* have a death grip on the game and are wrecking it all by themselves. If they'd step back and hire some new folks on and not micro manage them, the game is salvageable.

Instead I fear they are going the "one last score" route.

You should hire someone, anyway.

[Dadrick]

No community warfare, no UI 2.0, no private matchmaking, and no info on Clans at all. No thank you.

I do have someone. Both he and my wife said it was ok if I wanted to do it.

My wife always has the tie-breaking vote, even if it's 2-0 between my adviser and me.

I think people should take a deep breath (not saying you should calm down)..I think you're attributing waaay too much malice and cartoon-villainy to this situation. I mean protesting the prices is fine, I'd be liable to be right there with you, but come on. This is the real world, not Whacky Racers with Dikk Dastardly (had to spell it that way) at the helm, twirling his mustache between two fingers, while giggling maniacally.

• Just a regular hero bonus (not even like a +100% Cbills)
  
• Doesn't come with the other variants even so anyone buying a gold 'mech needs to buy the proper package AS WELL to master it this year
  
• What looks like an ugly, monotone, zero-effort gold skin

WHY SIGN ME UP

[Sentinel373]

my suggestion. split the clan packages up. make it two packages, both containing one of every weight class.
everyone wants the timberwolf. but you put it behind such a high paywall that everyone is pissed off.
