Until this thread I did not realize there were "one shots". I could have saved a lot of MC as I only use one variant for most of the mechs I play. Doh. But yes, I hate that a camo pattern is only one one chassis, makes me very hesitant to purchase them. I also use a bunch of hero mechs, and I hate that I am unable to change their camo!!!

Rhaegor, I feel sorry for you and your pocketbook right now. >.<

I would definitely buy most or all of the camos if I could use it on all of my Chassis'. I bought two for my Catapults without realizing that I couldn't use it on my other mechs and was rather irritated when I found out. Since then I have bought 1 single one shot, and doubt I will do much more than that.

also wanna point out, they have the Mesh
you can easly extract a Texture file from the mesh, and recolor the texture from existing texture.
only have to add a bit of color on the missing geometry.
obvious this is a big deal, and PGI will sell more if they make it cheaper..
anyone like to paint his/her mech

Old problem, just got me as a newer player. Was waiting for the faction sale and immediately bought a pattern to find out it only worked on that type of mech...could have just used single shots since I don't own 10+ mechs of the same type. Who pays like $7.50 (-35%) just to camo three mechs vs $.75 per single shot?

I did send in to support, but don't know how they handle this type of thing.

Already got a response, next patch (9/20 Night Gyr Drop) they'll remove reusable pattern and refund the MC. Nice quick and understanding response.

I'd be more inclined to purchase the unlockable camos if it applied to all mechs. 1000+ MC for the pattern i use the most across all variants of ONE mech is just too steep for me. If i get a mech that i like, i'll just get the one shot camo and the variants will be default camo since 9 times out of 10 i only have them for mastery purposes.

I'd be more inclined to purchase anything if we had PVE, a stable engine, and entitlement the mech.

Well, i'm sold out of the entitlement mech but I've got full stock of the smarta** mech, care to purchase one?

Hey, it was a new problem for me, figured other noobs might also not be hip to how the pattern unlocks work.

Once a thread is 2 years old, I recommend making a new one. No-one will get angry at you for that.

If we had the options of One Shot, Chassi, and Global patterns I think we'd see a LOT more mechs that actually look good.
