Comes with a full set (masterable) of each weight class:
  • Assault (Check)
  • Heavy (Check)
  • Medium (Check)
  • Light (Check)
If say 3/3/3/3 is ever implemented, I am fully Clan equipped :( . I know I have tons of mechs (and I do mean tons) already for the I.S. but what the hell.... I really need my Thor!

Side Note: Truthfully, when you get to my age, and you buy what you want when you need it, things like this go a long way in helping my wife by giving her an easy answer to questions like "what should she get me for my birthday" or "our anniversary".... Now if you can just release something great around Christmas and Valentines day, I think I can guarantee you some more sales :) I don't know about some of you married guys / women out there but simple answers to what can become obessive quests by significant others which become annoying and disappointing is a sigh of relief. Hence, an easy solution has arisen this year. Thanks PGI.

I still cant see how anyone can buy these without even seeing what they can or cant do. Its like buying a car without seeing it. You might end up with a van with a 50cc scooter motor .

I have bought several cars over the years... However, even though I had the whole spec sheet, nobody ever told me my transmission on my (bought new, was just 2 years old when it happened) Dodge Charger would blow...

Does having all the specs really make that much of a difference.... sometimes you just have to pull and pray :ph34r:! I still play the lottery though I know the odds are WAY against me, I equate to this in the same fashion.

That's a lot of cats!!

Notice how they change as they go on.....
Cougar becomes the dark shadowy cat
Shadowy goes to the light side and gets hit by a nova
Nova become... Super Nova!

I regret not getting the Legendary Founders, love my Phoenix pack, and orderd my Chevy Suburban from the factory, selecitn colors and options I did not see in person yet, but did it any way, love my truck.

Sweet, what clan pack are you getting than? Since we have had Base cap with turets and Resource/flag collection for some time now, it will be good to see you join the ranks of us that have bought a pack. Though I still wonder how you and all the others that say this statement can continue to like the tast of your foot in your mouth? The game did not even start as TDM, we got that when skirmish came around, so your point is foiled yet again.....

I agree OP, in life, sometimes it is just good to find something that puts even the smallest of smiles on your face and support it. I spend on this game like you becuase it fills the small gaps in time that i have, and it does it with fun.

Guess its always a gamble around here. Been a lot of good mechs nerfed into the ground even months after release too.

Two words. GHOST HEAT.

Supernova, if it weren't for ghost heat would probably be my calling card mech...not with the heat system the way it is now.

Pfft, Assault and Conquest are not much different than Skirmish and the way PGI implemented them is shoddy at best. PGI's advertisement of CW is the main reason I bought the Founder's pack--not this progression lacking arena game.

Go ahead and disagree. I'll see you as a jaded white knight soon enough.

and MWO is like having little of a spec sheet and you're restricted to one local go-kart track at best with your "so called" viper. many are sitting with a garage full of gear that's gone back and forth in great and bad tuning waiting for the race series to start.

LAWL is that just natural to you guys now? Someone does not agree with you so they must be a "whiteknight"? hahahaha. I feel so bad for you guys. I am not a staunch supporter of PGI, i have questioned them when it is needed, but I also do not wallow in the overdramatics as you proclaimers of the whiteknights do.

I will not be jaded, i will just leave. Once the game no longer is fun for me, I leave the game. I have the extra funds to spend on my happy fun time after taking care of my family, house, and other things, I still have more than enough to dump into pixels that make my smile my kids give me just that much wider. You should see what I have spent so far on SC.

Well by seeing they are putting out screenshots of what they look lol, also most of the time when one buys a new car the info is on the website similar to all this, but yes the test drive is another thing , but one can also say when you test drive it once you buy you aren't getting the one you test drove either.
