PGI would you consider reintroducing the Founder Packages, Phoenix Packages, and the Clan Packages again sometime in the future?

Or maybe make all of the "Special Purchases" available for MC?

It would be nice to pickup some of those Phoenix Mechs. Hell, I wouldn't care if you allowed Founder mechs to be purchased with MC.

Ya'll need an infusion of money which is obvious with the Golden Mechs.

It seems like it would be a good way to make more money by allowing players to purchase all the previously available Special Purchase Mechs for MC.

no

Would they consider delivering the loyalty program -- you know, all that razz-ma-tazz CW stuff they touted, that was supposed to be included as part of the Phoenix package?

If they aren't going to deliver that, then I'd like to get that refunded, too. Who do I write?

[Risko Vinsheen]

Part of the deal with the mechs in these packs were that they were limited purchase only for that period of time. I'm especially opposed to rereleasing the Founders mechs for purchase again. There will no doubt be more packs available in the future, you can buy special limited time mechs during those.

This is a terrible way to respond to someone's post. Give a reason if you digress.

OT:

I don't care either way. Exclusivity of items in a videogame without a trading feature is meaningless. (to some people, but not everyone)

As much as I want them, it wouldn't really be special anymore if they were opened again. Plus, it wouldn't really be fair to those who did buy them.

[SolCrusher]

I don't really care about the Package tags and all the extra junk that was in them. But having the Mechs available with their CBill bonus' would be nice and people would probably buy with MC.

Those packages are basically like Hero mechs.

Digress doesn't mean disagree.

I doubt anyone will not understand where he stands on the issue.

That said, if they re-issue past exclusive items, then less people will buy the next "exclusive limited time" offer.

Then they aren't 'limited' or offered for a 'limited time'


Besides there will be hero versions of phoenix mechs.

If I felt an explanation was necessary I would give one.

The whole point is that they are limited time only purchases.

Instead of re-releasing packages they will just continue to make new ones.

[Durant Carlyle]

Hell no, they shouldn't re-introduce the limited-time special packages.

You miss those, and want a special 'Mech of your own ... you buy a Hero or Champion, or wait until the next special package. There are bound to be more offered eventually.

I want my Founder and Phoenix and Clan Invasion 'Mechs to remain special, exclusive to those who were both around at the time the packages were offered, and willing to spend money on the game.

[Zolaz]

Dude, you dont want any of the Founders or Phoenix Mechs ... just like you wont want the Clan mechs a year after they are released. Save your money, buy premium time and Hero mechs ... you will be happier.

[Peter2k]

Why actually?

Do you just want the paint job?
The variants are freely available, for C-Bills.

Ok they have a bonus of 25%, Phoenix on xp not cash.
Heros and champions do as well, sooooo

The paint job?
Also it looks a lot worse after they gave the colors a second or third pass.

[shamandgg]

No!

To be fair "Limited time" is not "Never to be seen again". If I offer a deal every March. it is a "Limited time" deal. So the OP isn't in the wrong to ask.

True, but not relevant since PGI clearly stated these mechs would never be available again.

This is inaccurate. Founder's mechs get 25% CB bonus, Phoenix and heroes get. 30% CB. Champions (and the Sarah's Jenner ) are the XP bonus (10%)

Alright I stand corrected

still why would someone have the option back at all?
serious collector of tiny digital mechs?
Is he buying every golden mech as well?


someone should tell OP that there are some cockpit items that probably wont make it back ever again as well
Looking at my Dawn here, n some other stuff.


I hope PGI doesn't crumble on such requests, they did sell the package with the notion of never offering it again.

Just like no Player with first person view will have to play with someone who uses third person view, or that first person only is a pillar of ...,wait,.... damn
