What the khan mech? value add not part of the exclusive. Exclusive is the special skin and the other bits

[Whatzituyah]

I am done QQing about something that may or may not change I am still upset PGI don't get me wrong. The pheonix package was cheaper then the clan package which makes us think this is a cash grab rethink your strategy of course some people may just buy them to get them sooner if you don't change you mind about the prices. But they also want REAL CONTENT in the game.

You are correct Tolkien. The only option left now is to stop giving them money until they deliver results.

Man, they even got to Pada...

This is getting real!

See you in game.

If I had a nickel for every person who said they were leaving that I saw in game. I'd be able to purchase every package in the Clan Pack.

Gold star... think hard before you buy any clan packs. They have a history of changing not only their position at the time, but the wording of a deal after it has been made:



Approximately 3 days before Phoenix was released they changed this image to say something like 'hot rod cammo pattern', which I believe was after the deadline for cancelling your phoenix order without having your account locked. Overall pretty classy and anyone buying clans should be prepared to possibly have the deal changed on them.

Donning my fire retardant suit....

Their has never been a Mechwarrior game that has ever had a real CW, or other things in the pipe line. Every Mechwarrior has been about destroying other mech either those piloted by AI or those by other players. Yet everyone is pissed that game is lacking. No one is forcing to buying any package or keep playing said game. Am I happy about certain things no, but am I going to act like a little spoiled brat about.
In core concept the game is sound now if the other things planned failed well then that's another story. Ok I have my marsh mellows and hotdogs ready flame away.

WRONG. Multi Player Battletech 3025 had everything this game was supposed to have, and dynamic maps to boot. Don't think for half a second anything PGI is claiming they will do is in any way unique or new or innovative. Everything originally promised was seen as well understood features that existed for many years in other games.


They haven't been able to execute, and that says a lot about them as a company.

I don't care about the mech bays and other variants that come with those so bundles, the formula and the package they came up with has everyone I know laughing... Oh, and they also said they wouldn't be spending $240.00 U.S. on MWO for Clan Tech.
They also said, and I quote "Nope, they must be Fing nuts", "June 17th???" and "I wouldn't pay half that".
Then I said "scroll down".. The $500.00 gold khan stuff resulted in comments I won't repeat here.

Prices too high... End of Story....

So sad... A few people did predict this, but I wasn't one of them..

[Nekudemus]

this is not pay to win.
but come on give us CW and ui2.0 first... you use all your manpower on milking battle teach fan for monry.

Yeah, I think we're actually quite spoiled by the number of companies that deliver on what they say they will deliver. Good legal rules I suppose. We're not used to companies just grabbing the cash and running, so it's hard too see it coming!

Mind you, there are payday loans companies... which is what you'll need to get a gold clan mech, haha!

[Ransack]

Looks nice, Once I saw the "mad cat" package, I closed the page. Seriously?
Outstanding art work.


I've been wanting Clan tech for a while here, but I will pass. You will not get me again.

This. A Small dev studio built 3025 in a year and then EA picked them up because they saw big things. In ALPHA 3025 had more than MWO has now. the only thing better in MWO today is the graphics.

Sadly, Microsoft threatened to sue EA and so EA canned the project, or so I have been told.

CW & all that is doable and has been done before. This is not rocket science like we might be led to believe. Heck, fans built a PHP btech universe for mech3&4 that tied in game results. For meager donations.

[Jester Mk II]

I will gladly give you $240 as long as community warfare is out prior to this. Having invested a lot of money already, I'll not drop another dime until it is.

Those are called Blueprints, or Plans, or Engineering Specs. And that happens every day, for a lot more money.

Just saying.

Yeah, and when people don't deliver on those plans/specs they get screwed by either a clause in a contract or the fact that nobody will do business with them anymore.

It's like these guys never went to school. You don't tell your teacher "hey, I'm working on it I'll get it to you soon". Your teacher says "this is the due date, you get a 0 if it's late". ZERO. CW is LATE. REALLY late. I didn't pay for a blueprint, I paid for CW, private matches, and clan mechs (which were going to come later but I knew that to begin with). At this point all founders should be getting a refund. It's plain disrespectful for PGI to not only ignore our concerns but actively remove them from the forums.

[jay35]

Well chaps, I was one of the folks who noted they'd be willing to spend $200 on a Clan founders-style package, but that was a few months ago, which was before I lost most of my interest in MWO due to the earnings nerf and the lack of interesting game modes. I've basically not played in weeks now, only logging in on occasion to patch it up to date.

Might be back in a few weeks/months to see if any of the major features turn out to be fun or if it continues to be an incredibly grindy, costly, and overly-convoluted experience. I realize I'm just one of the many people who would/will purchase a $240 pack, so best wishes with the Clan invasion.
