I realize PGI is in Canada, but this sale really should have involved Memorial Day (a US holiday) and included at the very least the Sherman camo pattern (based on the premier American WWII tank) and Red, White and Blue colors (colors of the US flag).

It boggles my mind that they let such a great monetary opportunity pass by... They are only 15 miles from the US border, for Heaven's sake...


Well if you do it for one country... you'll have to do them...all... hey we got flags?!

Are they all backwards still?

I'm all for that. I don't know Russian, German or many other countries' holidays, but the more events that actually MEAN SOMETHING, the better, IMO. I would much rather have "insert random foreign holiday and teach me something" every weekend than "randomly named and pulled out of our butts" every weekend!

Just purchased the Atlas D-DC and it told me the normal price was 10 Million and the sale price was 10 million so I saved a whole 0%.

Then I thought I missed the sale so check that it said it still had 23 hours to go. Checked my clock and it said that the US is still in Monday the 26th so that was okay.

So how cme I didn't save any money buying a mech on sale at 50% off?

One of these days when the sale price is also reflected in c-bills instead of just MC, I will buy a "regular" mech that is on sale. Until then, pretty much heroes only. Really wanted that cicada to round out my collection, too.

Chaon, simply because all those sales always only count for the respective MC price...

Feeling ripped off at that.

But at last I have the D-DC to play with.

Sorry to say this "sale" pisses me off more then anything else you guys have done. If your going to offer a mech at half price you need to offer it 1/2 price period both MC and Cbills otherwise it's just a scam to make more money. I know it is a "business" but the "free" players are just as important to this game as the paid players. Without us your wallet warriors will be waiting hours between matches just to get enough players.

Oh LOL, I actually thought they were 50% off C-bills! Good one PGI, you really got me there with the ambiguous bulletin and the pertinents tucked away neatly in plain text below; I sat there for at least 5 minutes comparing prices with the other mechs.

Welcome to the world of sales. It has been that way for decades, if not centuries.
