Now that SRMs finally work, I foresee some people dusting off their 4SP.


Already done that, polished him up with a nice coat of wax and took him for a spin, It's actually quite effective again when most of the SRMs aren't just like tossing popcorn at the opponents.

Nice, I might finally spend some C-Bills and try out the Hunchback again. I have touched them since Closed Beta after they had capped the engine and I found them too slow.

now that the clans are out and they are better in almost every respect i dont think many people will care for IS mechs...maybe for the DS and 3D if they go on sale..but for those four i think only the DDC has a chance to sell


Actually, in the hands of good pilots, IS mechs can make mince-meat out of Clan mechs. I have taken out plenty of Clanners in my Jenner. It even got tot he point that people piloting the clan mechs started calling the Jenner and Raven (set up for scouting/tag/narc.. no ERLL) broken. Yup, Clan mechs are so OP that all IS mechs that defeat them must be broken.

PGI did a good job balancing and these 4 mechs can still hold their own.

Didn't know you guys changed the spelling of Oxide to Oxyde... Like the "Wyld Stallyns" from Bill and Ted

he isn't wrong, free to play = we pay so you can play


Well call me cynical but I hardly think any that pay do it because they want others to be able to play for free. They pay because there are things they want to have, pure and simple. It's your own choice. To afterwards ask for others to be grateful because you paid for what you wanted is rather dishonest.

Well, I would just like to say that I fully endorse this sale.
It gives precedent for future C-bill discounts, which in my book is a good thing, because for those that can't (or won't) spend money on a game they enjoy (they must enjoy it, right? Or why would they keep playing), it means that the grind isn't so discouraging.

It also gives me a chance to pick up my remaining Jenners. Hell, I may even put out for the Oxide, as that's one of the Heros I'm still missing.

Like the Discount Mechbay sale, this is a GOOD thing. Keep it up PGI.

Edit: Torgun, you are correct, to a degree. I pay, because I want to still be able to play this game in a years time. I don't want to see it go under due to lack of funding. The fact that I get Digital Stuff that others don't? Well, that's just a bonus.

I just wanted to say,

Thank you for putting these on sale, and thank you very much for reducing the cbill price!
I'm sure that helped many new players out!

No way are they better in every way. If they were, there would be no way in hell my little Raven "Ebon Crow" would be dropping 2 to 3 LARGE clan mechs each game! Hunting clan mechs has put this biggest smile back on the ladies face! They are just so much slower than me, they need longer beam times, they have nice fat bodies...

They ARE cool looking and the sounding though, love ALL the weapon sounds they have so far.
