I saw a twitter from Russ saying that all but the Mad Dog would be available Ala Carte but I am not seeing the option to purchase mechs Ala Carte, am I missing something?

No a la carte for pack 2.

You get it now or you wait until they release as normal.

Russ only said that the Mad Dog/Vulture would be the first released for MC/Cbills (regular version no cbill bonus)

Ok maybe I am just antsy but had my wallet open and ready to buy the Hellbringer but couldn't find the Ala Carte option. Again wish we could just chose a one, two, three, four or five mech option. Would easily drop $90 on the Hellbringer, Gargoyle and Mad Dog but for me anyway, the Koshi and Fenris spoil the deal. Honestly doubt I would ever really get into playing those two enough to justify the extra cost.

[Griggio]

Really the Koshi is one fine looking mech though......If it can't be good at least it can be good looking.

Like Gallgher said it's all about doing it with style!

[AlexEss]

sorry my bad. I went by the Town hall info and there it sounded like there was no pick n choose option.. But he might have been refvering to the Doggie.

Any way the new clan warhorns are nice and i see them being a big hit in the MC store no matter what faction you support.

[SmilingElf]

Since there seems to be a reward of one faction pack per $30 spent, will the a la carte option also include one pack per mech purchased?

Also, do we have an idea on how much they will cost per? $55 to circumvent a $100+ purchase was reasonable-ish. Grabbing the Summoner at that price tag was a tough call, due to how close it was The Nova pack was a steal, compared to buying it as a single. But it made sense as the top tiers were so much more.

But with a max buy in of $120, can we get the a la carte a little less expensive this time?

A la carte is meant to be expensive, it is a way to entice people into buying one of the full packages.

I'm aware. However, the $55 per baseline was established against a top tier price tag of $240. Since the top tier is only $120, I'm wondering if the a la carte price might adjust accordingly.

For some reason I highly doubt it will change much, as the Clan `Mech costs are generally higher. So it would stand to reason that their price would stay higher (yes I do agree they should be priced a little lower, how much no idea but i also understand how they are trying to make money)
