Hey PGI you forgot something didn't you?

This is the second week of Aug so the Kit Fox is suppose to be out today yet I am not seeing it.

Can we please get this corrected?

Thanks.

It looks good now. They removed the Summoner for Cbills, though.

Well I am at work right now so I can't log into the game and didn't see an announcement about the Kit Fox. Are you saying that the Kit Fox is indeed available for C-bills in game?

I already posted a thread about the Kit Fox. It's up for c-bills. Same time as the Summoner showed up. In fact , I noticed the Summoner pricing error afterwards.

Does the C-Bill purchased KFX-Prime still get a 30% boost to c-bill rewards from matches?

Because if you bought it with $$$ it does and it's the same mech?

30% is part of the pre-order package. Same as it was for the Phoenix Mechs and Founders mechs. Unless you see an (I) at the end of the variant, the answer is "NO", just like AS7-D, HBK-4G, SHD-2H, etc don't give any bonus.

No, it's not.

The mech you can buy is the KFX-Prime. The c-bill enhanced version you buy with the clan pack or a-la carte is the KFX-Prime(I).

Notice the difference?

The answer is no. Because the 30% C-Bill boost is a convenience and those always cost $$$$

It's a good little mech though. What it lacks in speed it makes up for in flexibility.

[Octantis]

In case imgur is blocked at your office (like me) the CBill price for a Kit Fox is $6,000,000 cbills.

Decent stack of change but I think any light with all the upgrades would cost just about the same.

ehhh I for that cash an IS light can be just as flexible while still being faster.

Maybe faster but there isn't a single one that can mount 3 AMS and ECM

[Scratx]

6 million c-bills is all you'll ever have to spend on it short of weapons and omni-pods, which you can reuse on other kit-fox variants and/or clan mechs.

IS Mechs like to charge taxes just to change armor types and structures and heat sinks, never mind actually wanting that XL300 to the Jenner and all that.
