I do not feel that way.

well see I base things on, you know, FACTS. This is hard to understand so I get that we might not see eye to eye.

you see the pack mech deals are fine, so many mechs and perks are at the right price.

the PROBLEMS are a year has gone by and of notice i can see weapons have had some improvements, 3 more oil dericks have been ploted along with a different counter to make a new game mode, new score cards and betty and 2X maps and many more mechs.

but that's been a year's work, UI 2 is a shell as far as anybody is awear we have no proof other than some music and graphics to tell us it's been seriously worked on and CW is the same plan as 2 years ago with some extra lines added to the idea, not even coded as far as anyone knows.

then PGI think they can charge 1 mech.... 1 mech at over 5 times the cost of an overlord!? without anybody knowing what the mechs are like, they could be all as boring and broken as awesomes trebs and quickdraws! we have no idea what they are or how they'll be played.

you can't ask for such money on a concept artwork the buisness ideas of this company is either insane or desperate. PHoenix money must've already run out or this is a criminal scale cashgrab!

Cash money says that gold skinned mechs get TKed regularly. Not saying that's cool, just making an observation.

No way in the world I'll buy a mech again after falling for the Overlord package. $80 for a bunch of Dragon-quality chassis and one good Medium (that's still no match for a good Heavy). So a $5 good mech and $75 of disappointment. Never again.

So for those who buy this, best of luck. Maybe this will literally be the first time that PGI releases a cash grab offer that doesn't spawn a ton of 'I was so stupid to get that' response from the players who took it.

Oh it was delayed? Did people whine about it? How about the ship costs are people whining about that too? A game that you've seen nothing off yet.

People will whine at that game just as they did with this one.

Yeah but they have raised about $34 million dollars for that game because **** is getting done, and they are showing us it is getting done. I had no problem dropping $400 for Star Citizen. It was an investment, they were showing that they were actually making progress with what they were doing, and they were also meeting goals. (Also, for $400 I was getting a ship that could have 3 of my friends play in with me. $500 for a shiny mech for one person is crazy)

This is different, precisely because we can't see any evidence that anything has been accomplished on CW of UI2,0. IF they showed us these things, then yeah, I can see a whole lot more people buying these packages. Not doing so is a incredibly bad decision on behalf of PGI

[Blurry]

go home PGI you are drunk.

when you get the {Scrap} together maybe I will consider.
you havent lived up to anything and havent pushed out UI2.0,CW,Clans.

Just more $$ for what? What exactly have you done?- nothing.
Good Luck.

For a start
reduce the grind
fix the match maker
give a solo q

[ScrewCityChris]

Anyone have a live feed of the offices outside PGI? Maybe there are pitchfork wielding creditors pounding on the door and they have only this one chance left to be profitable before going bankrupt.

Think of the children.

I've got patience, it's gonna be awhile, grab a Snickers.

[Star Witch Esperanza]

can we just start listing things that we can get for 500$ instead. Like one thousand and eighty poptarts.

Let's put it in perspective:

PGI said they'd have CW out by late 2012.

It is now late 2013, and we still have seen neither hair nor hide of any actual product or progress.

Don't forget that after failing to release in late 2012, they said -- in November 2012 -- to expect CW to start rolling out in January/February 2013. We'll be lucky if we get UI 2.0 for January 2014 at this point.



A galaxy map for planetary conquest is a 2013 feature for sure. How naïve we were.

[Coralld]

Hey PGI, you added an extra 0 to the Gold mechs by accident!!

Ok, really, I hope the "$500" price is a typo because 50 bucks is far easier to swallow then $500. As for the basic mech packs and their cost I guess the price is not to bad, still not buying though. None of these Clan mechs I actually care for, now if they had the Mad Dog, Piranha, and the Huntsman, that would be a different story.

I could be mistaken but I remember hearing/reading that next week we "should" get UI2.0, DX11, new map, the Thunderbolt and possibly the Flea, and a new lobby system, or something like that. But I recommend that you guys take this with a grain of salt.

My thoughts...
double the price of overlord/sabre??
Couldn't wait to release this till I've actually piloted my Wolverine/Griffon???
I hope all the Clan mechs are as squishy and badly hardpointed as the phoenix mechs.(no ac20 in anything over 55 tons)
240 Dollars for anything virtual all at once is WRONG.
Wrong.
Wrong.

TBH, I wonder if they are P2W. We are given zero explanation on how special they are with their "special modules". That would bring this game to a whole new low.

Well, I did say the lolcust would be the worst mech in the deal, regardless of what tier you'd get.

Hahaha. Please tell me this is a photoshop. You could have gotten all of those+variants for a fraction of the cost.

Golden Mechs - $4000
Top package - $240
Saved up to 94%

You uninstalled because of a preorder package? That makes no sense.
