$1127.25

EDIT: I regret nothing, and im glad to support a game I enjoy. This game is where the vast majority of my entertainment budget is directed, sure PGI has made some questionable decisions, but the way I see it the game is still in Beta regardless of what they say. The way they have hit their deadlines for this year that were posted in Russ' 2013 State of the Inner Sphere address has me hopeful that they are on the right path.

Probably 300 bucks. Between the mc and pheonix pack and two clanner mechs.

Haven't regretted a dime either.

I would like to point out one thing.

I'm VERY unhappy with PGI's recent decisions regarding CW and group limits which has caused me to make the decision of no longer supporting them monetarily.

With that said, I don't regret my founders OR PP purchases. I've had countless hours of gaming time. I've enjoyed the game since my first drop. The money I spent was spent for entertainment and I have been entertained. So don't take my statements to mean I regret the money I've dropped on this game

LOL, but we can't have a group queue because someone MAY level mastery or buy a new mech a few days early because of exploits.

Don't get me wrong, not bagging on you at all, just the thought that 14% get shafted for something someone MAY do, but it's cool to buy their way up.

I know, duh, but whatever

We can't have a group queue because of what?? What you say doesn't make sense.

We can't have a group queue because a team of 12 with a group of 8 is way stronger than a team of 12 with 4 groups of two ... even though 8 in each are "premade". There is no way to make unequal premades even close to being fair.

No, PGI has SPECIFICALLY stated you can't have rewards in group matches because it could be exploited. That's what Road is talking about

[Durant Carlyle]

Rewards, as in Achievements, yes. It would be easy to have everyone in a 12-man get the "12 kills" achievement if both sides were rigged, for example.

That's why private matches won't count for those.

Which is exactly what he's saying. You're taking that out of context. It's all in reference to not having a way for us to group up with more than 3 other people and participate in CW and earn cbills.
That's it. Nothing more.
5-11mans
CW
Cbills and exp

If it's a separate queue, then go for it but get it done

I have put no money into this game and will continue to not put money into it. I see no reason to give money to a Publisher/Development Team for a game I only play maybe once or twice a month.

[Sam Slade]

Legendary Founder Pack

Was going to buy all the Clan Stuff... for either 12 or 24 accounts as well as ongoing premium time for each account for at least 6 months. But I need to know that all those accounts can be used together and without issue in Clan Wars...

Edit: forgot to add Clan Packs for my account as well... so 13 or 25 Masakari Packs. Looks like that budget will go into Star Citizen instead.

Dayum, that probably could have funded them building a new cockpit item

[Butane9000]

Here's what I've spent:

Elite Founders x2 $60 (purchased one for my friend as well)
25,000 MC $100
Overlord Phoenix $180

So all together at least $400.

Honestly I decided that with how they handled themselves late last year that I wouldn't put any additional funds down until the core things they promised are released (i.e. Clans and CW). So while the Clan mechs look amazing (again GJ Alex) I have no intentions of purchasing them. Not to mention the fact that by the time CW is supposed to roll out at least half those announced Clan omnimechs will be released and we'll be able to see how they perform in the field.

Do I regret my purchases? No not really, but I did expect that with the money I have forked over that the game would be much farther along then it is.

Overlord

Masakari
2x $100 MC

I also bought an Overlord for my brother and cousin though my cousin paid me back.



I got into BF4 alpha. I preordered BF4. I still haven't played BF4.

MWO is pretty much the only thing I have played since closed beta.

I do want to try Titanfall. Is it worth it?

[XPhantasmaX]

No money has been spent on this game. WHY?

Because I have no intention of paying for an unfinished game that has "numerous" missing features.

[LowSubmarino]

Spent no cash at all. Played for free since beta hehe. Have all the mechs I like so there is no reason to spend cash at this point. Might change if more absolutely awesome mechs are released in the future.

Et tu, Brute?

I'm going to drop $100 on MC right after I post this. And you cant see this PGI? They owned the boards and you let them and now they abandon you. It wasnt just Brutus that killed Julius Caesar, it was probably never even said by Julius when he was being stabbed. Point being.

They were all killing Julius.

Ugh, I have two little Mechwarriors to support too.

So I say: "Here's the deal. You get your all the mechs we already bought to Master, at LEAST one in each chassis, and we'll get Clan packages. But I'm not throwing good money after bad... you only have 1 locust up to basic!"

"I have 60 dollars from gramma."

"Dammit kid. You're missing the point."
