Cause at one point some of us really like the game!

[Butane9000]

$60 founders package for me
$60 founders package for a friend
$100 MC package
$100 MC pakcage
$120 Phoenix package
-----------------------------------------
$440 total

Not spending another cent until I see both Clans and a fully functioning CW.

[MonkeyDCecil]

I have spent over a 1k on this game. Founders, Overlord, Masakari, paint, colors, mechbays, and all but three hero mechs. I really did not realize how much I have spent on this game.

I am a whale and have been harpooned by PGI.

[Kaldor]

$220

$120 for Founders
$100 for MC about 16 months ago

However, until we see real progress, N.O.P.E.

[r4plez]

wow people are insane with those 400+ USD, thats crazy :/

I spent 60$ on founder program with a hope of future investments when i see that game is progressing well. You could guess the rest - all programs after founder one - for me, were simple PGI money grabs, without real improvment to the game. So am waiting.

TOO MUCH.

Sums it up pretty well. Missed founders, but picked up Overlord+Sabre, most hero mechs and many bays. As many others have stated, my mind was clouded by the love for BT and the (absolutely fine) initial gameplay - Since the beginning of 2014, though, I seem to have woken up.

Resisted buying into clans, resisted the temptation of filling the gaps in my hero mech collection in the past few days, and stopped buying MC for anything else.

I guess it will stay that way - I need CW, UI3.0 (this time functional, for a change) and many minor game changes before I can really justify any more expenses.

Oh, and the news that the lead designer's values and skills did no longer fit into the needs and visions of the company... (although I should feel disgusted saying this, but it would make me drop an instant 100$ MC package).

$60 for founders pack way back when, then quit from frustration during open beta. I tried again when ui2.0 came out (coincidentally) because WoW is in the pre expansion doldrums.

Been having a great time, it's much better than I remembered. Having a big chunk of MC and premium time waiting for me from the founders pack didn't hurt, either.

Already spent $90 on a clan pack, I'm having that much fun with it.

I'm blessed by skipped two years of failed expectations. I agree that it really needs an end game of some flavor (clan wars, something...), but the actual battle infrastructure seems to be really solid. At least from my brief experience since I came back.

[Merit Lef]

Around $200 give or take a few. I'm holding off on the clans till I see what CW is like.

[Rizzelbizzeg]

I'm in for close to $500 already and I really want a gold Clan mech, but I don't know which one to pick (I like to run lights but the locked engines make me want to not play clan lights).


If they started accepting bitcoin or dogecoin, I'd have spent much, much more *HINT*HINT*NUDGE*NUDGE*

Get the Puma! That's what I did! It'll play a lot like any of the 2 PPC Cicadas, which is an incredibly fun build.

I've no idea what that means, but wow is that ever an ugly whale! lol

It was a slight against you for spending your money how you wish to spend it. That's all.

[Kali Rinpoche]

$330 over two accounts.

Account one.
Overlord $80
MC $200
4 Hero Mechs, PT, paints, 50+mech bays, skins.

Account 2: building for my little brother.
MC $50
Misery/IM, PT, and 8-10 mech bays.

The grind is too painful without premium time, so I will continue to buy it for that. I held off on Saber and Clans for now. I'm sure I will get in at some level on the Clan sale as it gets closer to June.
I love the game even with its Flea's. Would still like to see the PPC/AC meta fixed and the removal or downgrade of Arty/Air Strike damage.

*PGI, if you're reading this, please do the right thing and have premium time count down only when you log on to play. Thanks. Making money is the goal, but you don't want to alienate your consumer doing it.

I definitely agree with this. Not only when you're logged in, but it should only count when you're in battles.

[FlipOver]

Only spent anything after the BETA tag was removed.

6.95USD ~ 5EUR

Nothing more.

Don't even feel the need or the will to spend anymore. Not until this game starts to feel like a complete game and not an extended BETA version of its previous BETA version.

[Tezcatli]

Maybe $90 since they started selling stuff. Which is around 4 or 5 months of premium time from then to now. A Protector and Yen Lo when they were on sale. I only ever paid $15 for those hero mechs because of the leftover MC from the premium time.

[Wayatoon]

legendary ponder , Overlord + Sabre , masakari , sara's jenner and 4 x 25,000 mc

[Flaming oblivion]

Nothing and I wont either not yet. Its a pass time its not a bad little game I'd score it 5-6/20 probably closer to 5.

Is it worth playing yes for now.

Worth spending money on in my opinion? No. Why ? Because I'm punished for solo dropping , I'm punished for not using a meta build, and finally the matchmaker most of the time will put me in a fight I have little to no chance of winning.

If a game is going to do that to me I will play it because its not all bad I do have fun , But bluntly speaking I'm not going to pay for a game with a system that shafts me in more ways and more often then it doesn't.

[jaxjace]

Jesus Void singer what is your history with this game? I think ive dropped with you before you are a hell of a pilot.


As for me? around 200 and i thought that was a lot,100 of itl went to noob purchases and expensive mistakes, the other on the misery, the pretty baby, the oxide, D and F varients of the jenner, the awesome 8Q and a couple mechbays and black camo.

[Fanatic]

Legendary 120$
Overlord 80$
________

N.O.P.E. until a pleasant and fully functional CW.
