Well as I said - even on my monitor it is kinda tricky to read.

its nice that they show us the schedule, but to be honest: Its a bit dissapointing... i expected the release for c-bills/MCs earlier. Just wanted to have the daishi and masakari, maybe the madcat. Now i gotta wait at least till end of august for one of them. And i dont wanna spend 120$ to get the daishi-pakage 2 months earlier... :/ Why not like... one new Mech each week?

In my case i would prefer mc and cbill released 1 month later. Gives me time to save up cbills, since i'm highly unlikely to be able to afford cash purchases. In addition, it seems a little fairer to those who could only afford the kit fox package, they get 1 more month of it to themselves.

Thanks for the info!

I don't see why people are complaining, Its much like the founders getting in to closed beta early and people that did not pay up getting in later through random luck or when open beta came out. And they have learned from the pheonix mech issue where the people who bought the locust pack got burned hard with it being released for cbills right away.

Also at least people will get them this side of the year, since most people feared the warhawk and timberwolf would be december/January 2015. and the Movember typo well the warhawk has a giant handlebar tash anyway =p

6 Month until we get all the clanmechs?

And *poof* most of my excitement for the release is gone instantly.

It's one month. Unless you're a freeloader - in which case you really have no right to complain.

If they mess up the balance of the clanmechs, this will be devastating for the game.

They are in uncharted territory, trying to avoid the Clan Mechs being OP compared to IS Mechs, as was the case in every previous MW game.

So it's certain that they are going to to mess up the balance, for a while at least.

Personally, I think the Clan Mechs will be UP on release, due to their gimped engines and locked Torso hardpoints. We'll all find out in a month from now.

Some "freeloaders" are casual players who fill the player pool. With that attitude, be prepared to only be able to find private matches.

Why not ... pay for a product you're playing, instead of expecting to get everything for free?

"free to play" is technically a marketing gimmick. Where i live there were shops that had "closing down sale" and "new shop opening sale" for over a year.

Should have a Movember giveaway for epic Movember Moustache growth!

You know what would be awesome? A release schedule for Community Warfare.

Nah, we have learned the hard way not to believe any forecast PGI makes on CW implementation.

All prior iterations of a schedule have been meaningless, designed merely to placate the restless playerbase and keep them buying Hero Mechs and Bobbleheads.

Believe it when you see it, and not before.

Moustache Camo.

So.. this means no IS mech until december?

Sigh... See you in 2015, I guess. By this schedule, I will be driving my Nimiz around in WarThunder before I get to play MWO the way it was advertised to me.

No, Niko Snow specifically said they will still be releasing additional monthly hero mechs and monthly new chassis during the timeframe in addition to the 8 clan mechs.

The Boar's Head already has this.
I want Atlas glowing eyes back!

Because people like me who spent 240 bucks to get them early but then for everyone else to be able to get them just a week ahead would make me demand my money back. People who fund the game out to get stuff a lot faster otherwise whats the point in spending any money at all?

[Zerberus]

All I see here is a lot of whining by space poors and black knights.

Seriously, it`s all either "I can`t afford to pay for teh game, give them to me for free, NOW" or "It`s PGI, it HAS to suck, for reasons that I`ll imagine while I type this post." In most cases, neither care about actual facts, so any form of discourse is just helping them waste time and bandwidth.

Yet the solutions to your problems are so simple it`s stupid:

1. If you`re that poor, get a job. Maybe stop playing video games altogether and do somethign useful with your life, instead.

2. If you`re that disillusioned, get a life. Nobody is forcing you to play this game, or any other game, and your rage could easily be channeled to something productive. You obviously don`t see any light at the end of the tunnel (even if it is becasue your eyes are closed), and your incessant "I want this game to succeed despite my concerted efforts to actively contribute to it`s failure" schtick got old long before Phoenix was released, and that`s why nobody is listening to you anyway. So just save yourself whiile you still can.
