I see this big sign proclaiming that the invasion has arrived but I don't see any clan stuff in the game?

Can someone point me to the clan content please? thank you

Just pay your $500 and shut up about the clans.

Why?

[Captain Stiffy]

So I read that it will be like the end of June before this stuff is avilable...

Not really like, "here" yet is it? I mean, in the real sense of the term?

I'm sure the Steam Christmas Sale will be great.

When they said "here" they meant "coming soon-ish" as in a while.

Well six months is like nothing when you compare it to the time between now and 3050 right?

Dear Inner Sphere,

Sorry, but we're going to be late. We were almost there, really we were, when we realized we'd left the lights on. If you think your debt collectors can be kind of scary you should see what they can do with clan tech... we had no choice but to turn around as my grandmother is ill and was unable to switch them off for us.

See you in about 6 months.

Regards,

The Clans.

Actually it'd be neat if they were on the test server or something.

I can wait. I just hope after the early bird window they intend on releaseing two mechs a month. Because if they do it like PP it'll be like what? 8 months? before those who didnt buy the pack have acess to them all. No real reason to stretch it out for so long the things are already in the game at that point for petes sake.

Really could have been a spectacular way to generate buzz and community involvement.

Devs drop for 3 hrs straight in the pug queue, in a illegal 12 man (ie sync drop). Top 3 score on enemy losing team gets a mystery message saying you have proved yourself as a bondsman... Gets a random clan mech with locked loadout. All clan players get put on same side regardless of elo etc.

Invasion spreads along with the chaos of seeing the new strange mechs, after a week all clan mechs are removed and clans are put on sale to public. Package deal for first 3 month, unlocked twice a week like late phoenix package, cbill available in following months.

Seems like a no brainer way to get all the old and new crowd playing and excited for clans. Doing such after cw and ui2.0 would be the tactical thing to do...

about what? about the clans invading...wait lemme think...nothing? yes, i´m pretty positive about this at least...

it wasn´t that long ago that PGI´s words made us players hope to get a CW that could at least run a few months to establish the houses and shape stuff up a bit, before the clans arrive and cut through our territories...

now what? they´ll just slam the clans into empty space half a year before we can even HOPE to see a starmap..

gj again

i really start to wonder where all the money went, if not into "human ressources" for the IMPORTANT departments... mech design seems to be more than well-staffed though...

yea, a package of 5 Solaris VII maps, 4 different stock agro mechs together with a set of customization modules, some decals, the very unique "battleworn" skin and 3 month premtime for 1000$ ...sounds reasonable... (oh sh***, i just realize that my sarcasm scratches the surface of possible reality...)
