At least Loki won't have fixed JJ, so that's some tonnage saved there. Together with that clan XL and being the only ecm heavy chassis, it will still be a worthwhile and balanced even without the extra tonnage upgrades.

This might be the mech that will shake up the game, hence why the whole ecm debate came on table.

The Woman O' Peace has 20 tons of pod space after you max out the armor, which is even less than the Suckoner. It will probably be bad.

It will be fine, load it up with a laser vomit build as those dont take much weight and go to town with your 95kph assault

Thanks for everything, greatly appreciated.

Question: is it known for how long the wave 2 package will be available?

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:

I am not a big fan of Lights, but if that Mist Lynx is scaled decently, it will be one sweet ride... Alex did an amazing job on it as usual. The rest are very close to lore, which is not a bad thing considering these were all pretty nice looking mechs to begin with, especially the Hellbringer and Mad Dog.

Oh, and use the Clan names, for Kerensky's sake!

If you bought any package ever, from lowest founders back to lowest clan or a la carte you get the Atlas

Does this apply if I buy the Kitfox package right now?

TW has more armour and wep tonnage.

Also quite disappointing I have to buy top package to get a free mad dog after already substantial financial contributions. I appreciate the cool bonus mechs, but they aren't really ones I'd ever use, except the Crab....I'm buying some bright red paint for it.

You guys should really look at if you bought the Top Tier clan package you can buy ANY of the wave 2 and get the Mad Dog. I want the Ferret and Lynx but the Hellbringer with it's paper armour and the Garg which is outclassed by the TW...there's just no need for them.

Please explain how A-Pods (anti-infantry pods, Hellbringer Prime has them) will work. Or will they be replaced with something else?

Russ Bullock, on 15 September 2014 - 11:57 AM, said:

This is not correct.

Basically if you played 100 matches in the last year you get the active player rewards

If you bought MC ever or have a founders back since they had MC in them which qualifies you get the Centurion

If you bought any package ever, from lowest founders back to lowest clan or a la carte you get the Atlas

If you bought Legendary OR Overlord OR Masakari OR Man O War you get the King Crab

If you bought the Masakari AND Man O War you get the Mad Dog for free Sept 23rd - But it is available for MC and CBills around the turn of the year - details in post.

Can you clarify on the Atlas-S.... "Any Package Ever" ? Not pre -purchased? So purchases after injection dates would still qualify one for the "pre purchase reward" ?

Edited by Kaptain, 15 September 2014 - 12:18 PM.

[Prozone]

To preface this let me just state that I am a Legendary Founder, Phoenix Overlord, and bought 4 clan mechs (Summoner, Timber Wolf, Warhawk, and Daishih) A la carte. I'm interested in the Mad Dog as I am a Heavy/Assault pilot and can live with having to get it for MC or CBills. I don't want to waste my money on mechs I'm never going to use so will this Clan Wave 2 have an A la carte option? I don't mind paying for certain mechs but forcing lights and mediums to be part of these packs seems like a poor descision. Wouldn't you rather have some $ than none? Just a few thoughts from a long time player/supporter.

Exactly my question... It says "Pre Purchase Reward" but Russ seems to indicate that "Any package ever" would qualify one for the reward...?

I'll wait until I see if the ship takes a new, better course after CW for giving you cash.

Better prices than the first wave, though.

Wait what? These are the exact same prices as the first wave.

[K1ttykat]

Why you do this PGI...ugh

I bought the 6 mechs I wanted right away a la carte for $180. Now the nova and kitfox are out for cbills so I've started to buy them. Now I'm supposed to spend another $60 on mechs I don't really want and can get for cbills, in addition to $120 for the new pack.

You know people are going to want to mad dog so instead of it being part of the reinforcement pack, it's being used to sell a few more clan mechs. Maybe that's not the intention but it sure looks like it from here. Not cool...

I really think the super special bonus requirement should be lowered to the stormcrow/6 mech a la carte packs.

No, Russ... I've repeatedly used this same form of purchasing MC many times in the past. The problem is with your recent change in the purchase method here. I've never needed to setup a Paypal before in regards of my usual methods of purchasing MC. I would think since I can make purchases elsewhere online it would work here as well. (edit... grammar)

I will send your pilot name to CS and they will email you, I want to see if we can find out why your getting blocked

[Mad Jack McMad]

Hey Russ,

First off many thanks for the rewards - a very nice surprise and a fantastic way to give back to the community. I'm really excited about this new direction PGI are taking MWO and the increase in communication this past few weeks has been much welcomed. So thank you!

With regards to the current clan invasion packages do you know when these will no longer be available? I ask because I've bought several a la carte packages and would be interested in upgrading but won't be able to do so until the end of the month. Cheers for your time!

For the Pre-Sale Reward? yes any package purchase of any level from any program including a la carte will quality for that reward of the Atlas.
