They're working on it still. I'm pretty sure we backlogged more then a few things with the Wave 2 rush. It would be pretty sweet if they got it working before the 23rd though ....hint hiint

for those that never got a clan pack, PGI stands to make a lump of change if they offered a "Group Discount" on both packs. I feel that for those that never went the clan route this might be a good way to entice them. However, there was technically 5 Clan waves so I am not sure how this will pan out going forward.

I understand from Niko that we're not able to upgrade A La Carte owners to Masakari owners through support anymore. Partially this is due to the fact that we've changed payment providers.

Sorry about that.


What we're doing to fix this:

• 
  
  I'll be creating a new page that will allow you to do this and bypass the refund/rebuy manual route CSRs had been providing.
  
• 
  
  This way, you'll just pay the difference between the Masakari and the A La Carte collection you have, if you want to upgrade.

I won't have this available right away but the plan is soon.


This is primarily of interest to people who bought a large number of A La Carte Mechs and want to qualify for the Mad Dog in addition to all of the other free mechs we're giving out.

Again, apologies for the inconvenience to any A La Carte owners who want to upgrade.

Very nice.

Any idea when this a go?? looks like it wont be in time for the Mad dog release date?

Someone speculated after the patch on the 23rd. Though I'm thinking maybe later. For all the dev info that's been flying around since the anniversary announcement this is one topic that has been very quiet. Even the Change from upgrades would be available from the start of the sale to before the end of September was kinda slipped into the FAQ.

I hope the reason for the delay is that they are adding the option to get MC instead of doublet mechs when you upgrade and have already bought the upgrade mechs for cbills.... I have for some and I sure hope that I can avoid getting and selling doublets at a 50% loss.

Russ mentioned on Twitter that by "end of day" this should be available. Any update on what time exactly? Or should I drop by sometime tomorrow?

Yeah I'd like to know too. I was very vocal about not upgrading, but I want to be a cool kid too now. Throwing my last batch of hope at PGI with the man-o-war package purchased and now I just need to upgrade my wave 1 a-la-carte.

I couldn't help but notice on Russ's twitter feed that sonic boom warhorn is coming out tomorrow. Interestingly enough, I noticed my sonic boom warhorn from my pre-order a-la-carte purchase is nowhere to be found. Anyone else notice this?

Nevermind, I'm forgetful, and I placed them in one of my IS mechs.

Ouch...I would say e-mail support and see what they say.

For the future though the packs are the best value per dollar.

A la Cart, is a good second choice like me who has loved Timbers for a long time and didn't want the whole deal. And it's still cheaper than going straight out MC plus you get the Invasion variant.

And yes I'm still refreshing.

I feel like the upgrade option isn't going to happen tonight.

[August55]

Yeah I'm placing bets that it's going to be around patch time tomorrow.

I'm inclined to agree with you.

[Harlock Fredrick]

hope they do it soon and post it some place easy to find. I noticed each tear is 30 bucks so why not let people upgrade and take that tear off. i dont mind losing out of 15 bucks to go all the way up. or just let us buy all the way up and give us the 55 bucks in MC. its a win win for them if you think about it and im cool with that.
