right now the only options are credit card or paypal. i know for paypal i have it tied to my bank account so it just pulls the amount out and sends it.

How about a compromise to the Mad Dog issue?

PGI have split the community most likely unintentionally. I see both sides of the argument but those that will receive the mech for "free" are a little too vocal in my humble opinion. (No thank you I don't need anyone's uninformed advice about my job or lifestyle.)

What if you buy at least 4 mechs from wave 1 AND the 4 from wave 2 you qualify to BUY the mad dog al a carte?

The big supporters get it for free, the medium supporter earn the right to buy? Everyone else get to buy with MC or cbills but miss out in the (I) version.

The point of this is that they want you to buy the full package to make more money, so some people who would of just go with 1 $30 pack now spend $120 instead, if they lower it they would need to make equal money. So in your example 4 mech's from wave 1 = $120 and 4 from wave 2 = $120 so total $240 now they need to make the mad dog $120 to make up for the shortfall in revenue. Or you could of got both packs for $360 and got all the other goodies aswell.

Due to the Wave 1 no longer being 'pre-order' it won't count if our alacarte is upgraded to Masakari correct? (I wouldn't pre-ordered Masakari if I'd known I'd need it to get the Mad Dog.)

If so I'll be snagging the Man O' War Friday!

Russ quoted if you upgrade your clan wave 1 to 'Masakari' and buy 'Man O War pack' it will count and you get the Mad dog (as all not of the wave 1 mech's are released yet)

It has to do more with how the payment processors work and not PGI. More and more places (payment processors) are starting to restrict known countries where fraud happens a lot. Not sure what to tell you other then to try and get a prepaid VISA and use it instead.

[Sam Slade]

Wher's the a la carte option?

[Agent Pires]

Woo bought! I linked my CC to my Paypal and paid that way. Worked fine for me.

[DrSlamastika]

There will be some "A la carte" options for purchase like in 1st wawe? I want only Loki and Koshi . . .

So how does one obtain a Golden Mad Dog? You need to buy two golden mechs from each package? Just wondering

there is no golden Mad Dog, its just a bit colorised like that and advertised, but its not golden.

thats the whole point, motivating some people to upgrade the initial clanwave package as well.

Pretty sure they've said this is the last of Clan mechs. The three remaining Omnis all have MASC, which won't be implemented (at least not anytime soon. This means the Flea is cancelled as well by the way).

Nope only the Fire Moth and Glad have masc the Viper has no MASC sorry.

[dread2005]

If... I cant wait till they fix the " upgrade your a la carte to Wave 1" do i have than 2X Prime versions of the same Mech? Did someone try this?

Can it be used like an normal CC? If so then it should work fine.

[The GaussFather]

Russ,

You mentioned an upgrade path to past "a la carte" customers. Well I bought the 6 clan mechs I wanted ala carte. Are we not able to do so for the new mechs as well? I don't see this "upgrade path" you mention in the announcment. What did I miss?

Thanks!

Because I still spent a lot of money and put a ton of hours into the game, so I weigh in my opinion. Even less mechs in this one and they still want a lot of money for digital content that they refused to refund me even though it's just a matter of taking them out of my mechlab.

You guys do know eventually this game is gonna be shut down and you will have nothing to show that you once played the game. Why shell hundreds if not thousands of dollars on a game you cant even physically hold?

Simple I do not smoke, last time I got drunk was 1974 I have over 500 Battletach Mechs (all metal) so I have money left over to do with what I want and I want to spend it here. I am sorry that you do not have the money spare but that is no reason to be so negative to people who can and do spend their money here.

Sure you hold it physically more than you think!

If you go on holydays you'll hold it till you leave, with your eyes, the smell the noise and so one... in the end with your Senses!

so I can hear my mech I can see my mech I can keep photos of it, I can control it like a car with my keyboard, so what’s not physically there? I can’t die in a mech, but I like it that way!

[Nordmanne]

I like to prepurchase the new Wave of clanmechs.

ONLY PROBLEM! I CANNOT BUY THEM!

PLEASE GIVE US MORE PAYMENT OPTIONS!!!
