5 wins for a free mech? A Champion version to boot?!

Ladies, Gentlemen and Clanner Scum. It is my belief that those responsible within PGI have finally broken themselves with complete madness. The $500 dollar bling mechs were just the tip of the ice berg! Now these poor souls responsible for such an insane offer have finally and irrevocably resorted to throwing not just freebies at us... but GOOD freebies!

Is this out of desperation or as a plea for forgiveness? Or did someone simply get the lay of a lifetime and is still glowing with happiness and satisfaction? There is no way to tell.

Take this offer and run with it! Don't look back! Don't hesitate or regret! I will not thank PGI for such an offer, because I can't help but shake the feeling that this is all a trap or there is some hidden agenda behind it. Even if it is just a ploy to get us to spend more money on colors, camo, and mech bays needed for the other Centurions so we can unlock them fully. Just take the mech and run!

I'll see you in the field. Oh... and guard your bases. Expect rampaging base rushes.

[Vorloni]

Good move! Keep steering to that direction PGI. I have been curious about Centurions. Now it seems a perfect time for me to step in and take a ride. Thank you!

[Axefan]

OMG, the "A" is the only Cent chasis that I don't already own!

I can't wait to get home and stomp on you guys!

On a more serious note, does anyone know if this applies to PUG only matches?

[BLOOD WOLF]

I heard in the NGNG podcast, byran was talking about stuff like this.

[AgroAlba]

Awesome stuff, guys.

All thanks to removing those bottlenecks that UI 1.5 had in the way. Go go gadget UI 2.0!

[Threat Doc]

PGI, this is awfully nice of you. However, if you're looking to boost community size, or get back older members, might I recommend also advertising this on various MMO boards, IGN, etc., as well?

Maybe all of them

Bit curious about the choice of 'mech, but hey, no way I won't take it. Plus, mechbay. I can just sell of my CN9A and keep the champ.

I like this promotion, very friendly for new players also.

[defcon won]

This is how it's done! Good going PGI, I'll be putting in extra time this weekend.

[Kanigit]

Nicely done team. Game on.

[Denolven]

Now if I only could play the game, but unfortunately my framerate dropped to 10-25 with the UI patch (lowest settings), while it was above 30 before (medium settings)
Now I have to consider bearing a slide show for a few hours to get that mech...

[Jabilo]

What can you say, apart from - thanks!

Since I own a Cent 9-A. I'll be stripping this & selling it and using the mech bay for another mech i need

Probably would make more sense to keep the Champion version and strip & sell the original.

[Malleus011]

I'm impressed. Well done PGI.

[Khujjo]

Just a thought, but it would be nice for all of us that are aware of this promotion to advertise it during our matches so the new people that can really benefit from this will know about it.

I'll give this a shot. Question though: does it matter in what manner of `Mechs I use?

Example:

Atlas
Quickdraw
Centurion
Commando
Cataphract

All wins

[Rayah]

Nice, haven't had a Centurian lately.

[Zakie Chan]

I was gonna play and then remembered I uninstalled the client.

Keep valuing your community and I'll be forced to reinstall

[Bhael Fire]

Now THIS is how you do it! Great job PGI...I approve.
