So I have a bit of a problem. I sort of ignored it and left things to collect dust. This is until last night when fellow Bears started to comment in this. I am talking about my Clan wave 1 bonus hanging items. I am of Clan Ghost Bear. I do not use, wish to represent, etc Clan wolf, Falcon or Jaguar.

I would request that at minimum, you give us the ability to pick which faction bonus you get. Some people may have no issue with all four Clans. I know with the new announcement that I CGBI members have commented that they are upset being forced to have 1 of each faction.

With the Phoenix pack medallions you got to pick. If you wanted 5 fed sun you could. If you wanted 1 of each faction you could. Why was this option never provided for the clan wave packs?

I would request that for wave 2 we be allowed to pick what faction packs we want. Ie: 4 CGB or 1 of each.

I would also like you to consider resetting the wave 1 packs if possible to allow the same selections. I would prefer a total of 8 CGB vs all the other Clan Rep. I have items in my inventory that i will not use, and this is UN fair.

I'll stand by the Ghost Bear's request for a re-selection of items. I realize this would require more scripting - but I believe it would be a great showing of good will in regards to those who are steadfastly loyal to their Factions. Seconding this.

[Hikage]

As a fellow ghost bear, I second this motion as well.

isn't it already the case that we will be able to choose the items we want?

because it says: 4 players choice faction items. And this would imply to me, you can choose 4x if you by a Man o war package.

If that IS the case, we just need clarification on it. Our understanding is it is a set of each.

I do use my other Clan medallions, and still have 2/4 of my PP medallions "used", but only for lack of multiple CGB medallions - better to have them in salvaged mechs than collecting dust in a closet somewhere...

Negative.

If you read the Gargoyle/Man-O-War pack, it reads you get All 4 faction packs. This was how wave 1 was handled and I have 3 hanging items i do not use, and 1 I need to constantly change out. I would love to set a total of 8 after both packs of CGB so I do not need to micromanage my Cockpit items.

Even if it where the case, it is not for wave 1. I have absolutly no interest in being a part of or owning cockpit items of Clan Smoke Jaguar or Clan Jade Falcon (I can stand having a puppy medalion and the Clan) so having them idle is a waste and we are taught not to waste anything. Therefor I support the OP of Coffinail 100%

Wave 1 had only the term X hanging cockpit items, which didn't let a "Choice" and the kind of item was fixed.

But indeed it sound slike you can choose each version of a pack only once, even witn multiple choices.

Probably something you should adress to PGI, I am sure they won't mind if someone would like to choose the same pack 3x or even 4x.

and actually the Man O war description would be wrong, since you don't have a choice anymore.

Absolutely agree. It's just a waste and collecting dust (other clan or IS memorabilia)

[Cavendish]

Agree.

No offense intended to our clan brothers, but I really have no use for my wolf, jaguar and falcon "hanging items".

I like to think of them as trophies of the mechs I have own through Trials of Possession from their so-called Warriors. (No offense, Cycloner, lol)

[The Great Unwashed]

Good point And while they are at it: even more so for warhorns!

For me it's not clear if these would only include the items, or also the camos.
As it makes no sense to pick 4x the same camo as it's perma unlock for all your wave2 mechs.
Beeing able to choose your pack below man-o-war is definitely requested
Beeing able to have all 4 camo packs AND choose x times your faction items (standing/hanging/mounted) is the best to hope.

[Lily from animove]

I hope we will soon be able to add unit decals there. Even if they may charge us some MC first to place them there.

but you can use it as a trophy gathered from your opponent. Or you can tip at your clan wolf hanging item every time you kill a clan wolf guy saying: Boom you're dead mate.
