Remember the actual Urbie pack is gonna be around 30 dollars, which is what I listed. The Gold pack will have that, plus the unique Golden Urbie. That's about it. 100 dollars is a lot for it, but so was 500 for the khan mechs.
Yes, but PGi are running for 'better value'. Additionally, the Gold Mechs were around the point of around double.

So at 20-30, 40-50 for gold is reasonable.
And really, for a lonely light, even the Urbie - how many people will actually pay that?
I'd pay 50 tops quite happily, it's silly, but it's at a vaguely acceptable. More and it gets ludicrous and I won't.

I think this was amusing enough

There is a game where you can play an urbie?

Not at US$100.

At US$40-50 though~
Say something like:
-------------------------------------------------------
US$20 - Urban Pacification Defender pack:
Urbanmech:
UM-R60(D) Defender (+30% C-Bills bonus)
UM-R60L
UMR63

3 Mechbays
Urbie Cockpit item
Badge
Title
Camo Spec
3 Colours
5 Days Premium Time
-------------------------------------------------------
You get 3 Urbanmechs with bays, the usual 'unique geometry hero' one, cockpit item, badge, title, camo, colours and a little premium time.
I think this would sell like hot cakes.

-------------------------------------------------------

US$30/40 - Golden Defender pack:
Urbanmech:
UM-R60(G) Gold (+30% C-Bills bonus)
UM-R60(D) Defender (+30% C-Bills bonus)
UM-R60L
UMR63

5 Mechbays
Urbie Cockpit item
2 Badges
2 Titles
Camo Spec
3 Colours
10 Days Premium Time
-------------------------------------------------------
For +10 to +20 US$, you get a golden UM-R60 with mechbay, an extra bay, another badge and title, and double the premium time.
I think this would sell pretty well too, and I would buy one as soon as it went up.

Oshi, forgot we already had (P)s xD

lol... creamed my shorts when I saw this post
we should also add a new map based on Qbert too :)

Actually we should also add a new game mode, Rise of the Urbies. 12 v 12, all urbies.

$80 for a Gold Urbie pack and I'd buy it. $100 is a little steep with the normal pack being $30 and at the $80 point that's $50 for one mech and a mechbay. Still, at $80, that's nearly 3 clan mechs equivelant.

Every time I see this thread bumped I keep hoping that its because the Urban Mech is coming.

This ever gets released in game and the Light Queue is going to be 100%. It will break Matchmaker.

I think the best idea here is to work on creating some kind of summoning chant or jutsu to call forth the urban mech from the depths of hell to play, while in the game.



here is a reference image of what i found on the internet while researching.

and for the urbie haters a new training grounds mode "Night of the Living Urbies"- River City night (or mechfactory) 15 minute timer where you, in your mech of choice, must survive randomly spawning enemy AI Urbie lances every 30 seconds for the first 14 minutes of it. over 100 urbies to shoot if you make it all the way

I hope next year for April 1st they do a surprise "Forced Urbie Drop" where one player on each team is randomly forced to drop in an urbie mech (determined while map is loading), instead of the mech they chose. The game type mode is "Protect the Urbie/VIP". And if your Urbie dies, you lose, if you kill the enemy Urbie you win. Happens all day until April 1st is over. And then afterward regular VIP game mode is introduced.

It was also one of the first mechs you got to salvage in MW2 Mercenaries. As I recal the first or second mission had you fight a lance of 3 Urbies and a Catapult in your Commando.

This thread must not disappear from the Hot Forum Topics sidebar until they give us the Urbie.
