So especially since the Clan invasion isn't very far away....any word on Faction specific paint jobs, or even like Faction decals that can be applied to 'mechs?

decals are most likley one of these "if/when time can be found." but it was in the pipe at one point.


Faction camo/painjobs have been talked about as part of the rewards we get from ranking up with a faction in community warfare. So it is most likley 6-8 months off at best.

Each faction should have its own camo pattern and colors for sure - which would include insignia/emblems on the camo pattern.

It should be free for whatever faction you belong too, but can't be used unless you currently belong to that faction.

Or a simple C-bill purchase for the non-modifiable camo house pattern AND also have to belong to the house. But strictly non-mod'able. No hot pink Kurita's or Lime green Steiner's.

thing is there is not always ONE unified camo for a faction.So until house units get in-game (with their respective camo) there will be hard to have a per faction camo that is also lore accurate. =)

They'll be "unlocked" for spending time with said faction. There's a level system, up to level 60, with faction loyalty bonuses and so on.

It's all stated in there.

Yes Pygar... We are aware of the concept... But as you can see here Davion guards are just one of many Fed Sun units. Not all of them use the red/white/blue as their parade scheme.

With the loyalty system it's possible to have several camo patterns per faction that unlock as you gain prestige within the faction, starting with the "common" baseline camo pattern.

Yes, that's what I was mainly referring to. Unlockable patterns as you climb the faction ladder, starting with the basic pattern for that faction.

Well, I'm covered already.

Titanium White = Com Guard/ComStar parade white, one of the few factions who do have a unified single color scheme.
