so much hate in here

i'll never get a goldie, but then im not gunna bash anyone over it either

think of it this way, these ppl are activly trying to keep the mechwarrior game going...other than bitching aboot it what are you doing to help?

i see it in alot of the free to play games, the welfare warriors ***** n moan aboot the wallet warriors buying the premium gear / time . but with out the wallet warriors there would be no game.


also on a related topic, they mechs too look nice, and are making me think aboot getting a normal pack. tho i dunno which ones. but then thers this nagging thought in my mind telling me that i still havnt touched any of my pheonix mechs yet either.

Loving the look of the Stormcrow, but a bit disappointed with the Adder - I prefer it with a lower profile and the way the hood is designed reminds me of the Bride of Frankenstein hairdo from the front view.

Yeah, and we were supporting the game when we became founders years ago. Look how far THAT has brought the game. Instead of just being a never ending release of mechs modules or colors for sale, now we have a deep game with factional battles, planet captures, numerous modes, and community warfare. It's not just an FPS with only ten maps and more expensive single content than many fullon games are.

All of you Founders supporting the game kept it going long enough for me to find out about it and take over supporting it with the Phoenix package and a few Hero mechs. I am very sorry you have been disappointed with it, but I am still enjoying it and glad to fork over money for the Masakari package this time around. Hopefully things will improve enough to make you happy, but if not, you have my thanks for helping me find my "happy game".

i assumed that the gold one will be a shiny ostentatious display of mech, so shiny that will be perfectly visible even on river city night or terra therma, hell...like it is the second sun on tourmaline. so shiny that even its own pilot would see its own shining coming out of its...behind.

this is a fail...i dont see anything shining, not for 500 $.

[Shabahh Kerensky]

Seriously, who is in charge of the promotional material? I know the gold Adder won't look like that generally but that is some terrible lighting in the Adder pics. Someone really took that and went "Yea that'll get people to buy!"

Heck we already had to deal with bad angled Timberwolf pics.

I'd never buy one, and.... Doesn't matter what they look like...my prediction is that the legs on these gold mechs will not hold up.... LOL

[White Bear 84]

$500?

Love the game but Im not investing until I see some more real content. sales and gold mechs are not real content imo. maps and lobbies and planetaries and Solaris and community tools are the kind of content I will invest and support..

[kesuga7]

forest colony version looks bronze

other picture from map looks like gold

[GalaxyBluestar]

TBH this just shows how baddly they made the madcat.

these two however actually look good even in gold.

of course these are for freebirths, the clans don't waste precious metals as "decoration"

Why is it that they don't look at all like they are gold?

this, i mean look whats that:



Thats brass, and looks a lot more shiny and goldish than what we got.

also compare the "advertising pic:


shiny shiny

but whats that:



wheres the gold gone to? scratched off by looters? or broken pilots for more components?

Well I am not even posting your ingame screens, where the gold is even less golden than in those pics above.


The gold skin could realyl need some rework.

People buying these are helping finance the game I am playing, so I am all for it... Now fat cats buying gold-plated Ferraris and chrome Teslas? Those people deserve to be made fun of....

Sorry, but the founders helped to finance this game. And got a kickass. The phoenix pack owners helped to finance the clan package (oh sorry, the game ). And got a kickass.

The clan package buyers help to....get the riches more rich. And the owners will get a...well? kickass!

I do not trust PGI anymore.

Have to say that the Adder looks like a turtle, must have lots of armor but they really hit me with the Stormcrow design. Looks just fantastic!

[Jolly Llama]

I can't wait to be the first kid in my regiment to kill one of these overpriced atrocities. Can we get them mounted after we blast them?

I second that! It is gonna be glorious to see all those people dumb enough to waste $500 walking around at 40kph.

[Name140704]

There is probably a suspicion in their minds that being a gold-mech owner will merit some reward down the line as well. I would recommend that those with this opinion review the Founder and Phoenix package owners...

loyalty points?

[Jolly Llama]

Yeah, well packaged bullshit is called fertilizer. Gold mechs are just premium fertilizer.
