I honestly like the game better now than during it's official so called release, but I wont ever get a gold mech even though I can afford one, I see no value in it, not for that price, I can never sell it back to anything, none of us can, we all have pretty much thrown money to make pgi rich without any guarantee that this game wont be shutdown in the next year, we are spending lots of money on digital content that we can never hold in our hands and say this is worth this much and it's rare and limited so yeah....this game is fun but it's not going to last like a decade like valves counter strike which is not showing any sign of being shut down after well over a decade.

Saying that though I know I will be getting the full clan package as I dont see a point in the stupid ala carte I rather just get all the mechs, and the premium time alone will be nice have a month started. I once said I'd never spend money but damn do I spend money on this, perhaps because it's more fun than any other free to play game....hell I have more fun on this than most retail games anymore development has gotten lazier and lazier by the year with games like call of duty, and halo for that matter, those companies are too big and rich for their own good and no longer bring out a truly unique and quality product that no other can just copy from.

Good work pgi thanks for the effort but try to put yourself in our shoes and see the value from our point not just from your own point of view, yeah some people can afford the stuff I know I can I work at john deere work 12 hour days quite often and paid decent and have amazing benefits I know for a fact that run yours too the freaking ground but I work hard labor/skilled as well since I weld as well as I also assemble the parts...now if I was a painter you would be damn sure I'd buy a gold mech or 2 since I'd be making bank and if God willing someday I will then I could try star citizen but right now that game is not even on my radar such a rip off, that game is literally nothing but pay huge amounts to play the game.

pgi do me a solid instead of 240 dollars for the clan mechs make it a solid 200 and I will buy it right now.

...but does it come in Gold?

Yes but as it is a minimally viable warship I have to wait for the UI 3.0 bottleneck to be cleared before it is in gold.

I hope you StarKhan OVERGOLDS take plenty of screen shots of your gold prizes so you have something to print out on a piece of paper and have something to show for your 500 bucks when that happens...

Its bacause Star Citizen does deliver regulary video's, content and updates on the whole proces. They're far different and they complete things as advertised.

That isn't even close to the first promise they made about community warfare and then broke.

They want us to be a part of mw history with these golds. I think they mean "be on a plaque at PGI listing those idiots who spent this much." I am a part of mw history, I helped found this game when they needed money to get out of initial beta.

The fact that this many someones actually paid five hundred depresses me. PGI will never put major effort into improving the game as long as people are shoveling cash into it.

That's not what a Founder's tag means. MWO did not need the extra money to get out of beta. Founders =/= Funders. MWO was already funded and was going to be made regardless of whether or not people bought Founder's packages. The extra money just gave them more options to work with. The Founder's packs just means that you were paying attention early enough to participate in a promotion to get some rewards that show you've been participating in MWO from the beginning.

Funny thing, I'd probably own one of these right now if PGI hadn't taken a big old shit on groups 5-11, twice...well, 3 times now.

I already own one and I'm not happy with the gold look... it's not all gold... different parts have different textures of gold it's not all smooth and extremely as shiny as i expected/wanted... It doesn't quite say "Yup, that guy is a D-Bagg lets get him first"

Hmmm...is it just me, or does the Timber Wolf in the picture have its arms pointing in separate directions?

Didn't you know that Clan Omnimechs will have arms that can be independently aimed? It's one of the features I asked for a long time ago. It's finally coming!

Well, if we are going to go full conspiracy on this (fingers crossed!) we can follow through that this would enable independent actuator damage caused by critical hits!

That's definitely part of it for some people. But we cannot deny it's also a fair bit of shameless cash grabbing by PGI. Especially with the gold coloring everywhere. I think they would have been better off with a Matte Black and Silver Chrome combo for the Khan package mechs. Gold will just force people to stand out like sore thumbs.

If you bothered to read that article the only thing CR said was PU alpha Mar 2015. Everything else was the author's supposition.

The author also said given the scope of what SC is trying to do that delays will be probable but not inevitable.

Regardless when the SC AC comes out it will be in a far more polished state than what MWO is. CW? At PGI's rate it'll be finished after full SC release - for a far more limited game in scope, vision, technology, pretty much everything.
