Yes the command chair specifies that it stays open as long as the Clan Wave programs stay open






Although I saw no mention in the command chair post about it maybe they added it since I last read it. From what I saw and that was only the image about the maddog being available on the 23rd to those whom purchased the highest $240 wave 1 and highest $120 wave 2 teir. Making it sound like the $120 had to be spent BY the 23rd. Which is pretty crappy as not everyone gets a pay check each week. It's refreshing to know from Russ that the buying will be left open after the 23rd and we can still aquire the Maddog. But to just receive it on the day it will be released (to those eligable) the $120 purchase has to be made by release.

I could care less if I get it on the 23rd since I'm still leveling up the wave 1 clan mechs. lol

Sorry, i am used to not post in the official forum, but to follow some interesting threads every now and then. Now after skimming over this thread and reading some offensive messages upon the Mad Dog i have to say this:

I can't understand why there are some people here still upset about the Ultimate Clan Reward Gift (Mad Dog). It is a special exclusive gift for the Ultimate Clan Package Buyers - A Thank You Very Much for your Support in form of an early-access to the so popular Clan Mech. You shall not be deeply grieved, if you can't afford it right now.

If you want that Mad Dog so much on Day One, you have to pay the money for the Masakari + Man'O'War Packages. If you don't want to spend that money, simply wait for the C-Bills Release some months later. PGI should be thanked for their generosity instead getting badmouthed again and again. People, just shut up, give PGI the Money or be patient for C-Bills Release.

THIS HERE:

No. If you want it as soon as possible ... you pay for it. You can always wait until it is available for MC or Cbills and buy it then. From the sounds of it ... that should be no later than another 4 to 6 months for most of the mechs.

PGI has done a great job with these incentives. Hopefully, it will drive revenues sufficiently that they can continue developing MWO and finish it.

The "paywall" here is for early access, early adopters and if you are feeling altruistic, to support PGI to complete the fundamental features of MWO and continue development.


@PGI
Keep up the good work, especially the recent direction. Your Game is (still) broken and you have suffered a lot of Rage from the Community. Too sad. But i wish you all the best to make it become the game, the Community finally accepts and stop raging against but instead begin to love.

This Anniversary Event and Rewards Package are steps into the right direction to make this Community gain Faith back into you. You will restore your broken Reputation once you have completed MWO to it's final form including all the needed Bugfixes/Balance Changes and new thrilling Contents. Just like Blizzard did with D3 with the latest Patches, after all the many Years of Community Rage. D3 is soo good now. And i really wish from the bottom of my heart, that we the Community can say this as well for MWO in the soon Future! Pls make it become true! I know you have a very hard time now, but still fighting for the success of this game. Keep up the good work!

In the meantime i simply say: Thank you for MWO!

A few things I saw in the latest post.

MC Mad Dog just 3 months away and Cbills 4 Months roughly - a bit of a wait but the clan purchasers really deserve something.

People asking about Apod - I believe it's going to come down to extra armor

This anouncement made me feel very happy... you made us founders remembering the joy it was in the beggining of this game!!! Well done PGI!!!! And yes, im so getting the Vulture!

But what we really need now is the Comunity Warfare!!! Please, focus your hard work on this. Once the CW is out, you can do so much more packages like this one...

PS- with stuff like this, you earning your comunity's trust again, so thank you!

Do the Mist Lynx, Ice Ferret and Hellbringer only sport jumpjets in certain variants and therefore i have to wait until PGI releases info on them to know if they are capable of equipping those?

Mist Lynx has 6 jump jets on all variants, Ice Ferret has no jumps jets (but moves faster than any Clan light to date), and neither does the Hellbringer.

I couldn't help but notice, you guys used the Inner Sphere names for all of them (except for the Mad Dog) whereas you used the Clan names in Wave One. Not necessarily anything wrong with that, just pointing it out as an inconsistency. I'm a little disappointed that you gave my favourite Clan mech, which has an awesome name, its boring IS name. I mean, Loki vs Hellbringer, its an easy victory ;)

Not for the pre-orders

Each tier was named using the IS names on Wave 1 as well.

The mad dog was my favorite mech of MW3. Is there any way for someone who has spent money on every single package (founders, phoenix, and clan (a la carte)) to buy the mad dog? That is the only mech I want and would not like to have to spend $360 for a single mech (I want the hero bonus and looks) :(

For everyone worried about this here is a quote from Russ Bullock "All Standard variants of this chassis will be available for MC December 16th and C-bills January 20th." This is regarding the Mad Dog (aka Vulture)

Koshi, Fenris, Loki, and Man O'War are the IS names for these mechs.

There clan names are Mistlynx, Ice Ferret, Hellbringer, and Gargoyle respectively. The Mad Dog is the only one with it's clan name, instead of the IS name (Vulture). Solidifying as a specifically Clan reward, I guess?

Random idea. As an extra thank you for our continued support, those that are able to receive the Mad Dog, how about delivering it mastered out?
This is pretty much a pricey hero mech. To use and example, when you buy a gold tank in wot (world of tanks) it comes leveled up. No reason that would not work here. Would make for a great "thank you"

I bought 6 out of 8 mechs in the la Carte collection, if there is a way to upgrade to the Masakari collection I will get wave 2. really looking forward to the Fenris, Loki, and Vulture:) The Koshi and Gargoyle I'm not sure how they will fair. They will be a fine distraction while I await the arrival of my King Crab!

Although we had intended to open Wave 2 for sale today, we needed more time to ensure the quality of the Wave 2 web page which includes upgrade paths to past a la carte customers.

Therefore we plan to open Clan Wave 2 sales on the 1 year anniversary date of Wednesday September 17th at 4pm.

In the meantime this should answer the majority of your questions regarding the package:

Speechless PGI. Glad to see the developers in the driver seat. I will absolutely be buying the Gargoyale package. Can we get a explanation on the faction content available ?
