I've kind of scanned this thread so if I missed this, forgive me. I am not a long time MW player. I started playing on the PC about MW4. I have never played the TT version. I don't know the lore ect other than what has been presented here. I have how ever been a part of this game since very early on. I "own" the top founders pack, the top phoenix pack, both the top in clan packs and several hero mechs. My question would be with the community warfare being what it is, and me being forced to pick a "faction" and that choice either removing all my IS mechs as an option in competitive play, or all the clan ones, why would I purchase another pack? I don't want to come across as the sole voice of discontent, and I certainly don't want to be viewed as some of the negative posters here are, but, I think the question as someone that has spent money on clan mechs why should I purchase these if I cant use them?

You will be able to change faction between CW seasons. Also, you can use any of your mechs regardless of your faction in any mode other than CW. CW is RP mode for Battletech fans.

Great job PGI

its almost like in my collage table top days where I could look at all my painted miniatures IS mechs and wonder which one I would use to destroy the clan vat grown scum.

I love the panther and the Grasshopper....and yes this means I will give you some more of my hard earned money, please keep going in this direction and please do an awesome job in community warfare and the Inner sphere map...something about looking at a constantly evolving nice map makes me want to play games.....( ya I am sucker for a good map)

and again hat off Russ and the guys at PGi for manning up and doing what we all knew had to be done. you have earned a loyal fan. o7

ps .....some more house liao mechs would be nice.....I would buy many ;-) lol

to the rest of my fellow reprobates inner-sphere mech warriors....man up and buy the pack so we can kill more dire Whales ...they are breeding like .......fleas(hint hint)

You may want to do some research, there are quite a few Capellan mechs in this game.

Just saying, but if the Inner Sphere Pack does come with special camos and colors, they should be used for Founders/Phoenix Mechs as a bonus.

Unless you can only log in during the CW planet taking defending hours, and want to take part,this isn't going to be an issue for you.

None are forced to take part in CW they can still log in and have matches only those that want to take part have restrictions and even then they can chose to a certain level what planets they will try take/defend, if I'm getting this right of course, i'm more worried about forgetting to click the map durring the two hour windows myself..

Nice package.

Looking forward to see the final sale page tomorrow !

What could have been:

[NinjaTom]

As much as I like these mechs I'm going to wait and see if you guys release another pack in case it has any of my personal favourites so I don't go "damn that pack has a few of my choice mechs but I already bought these"

That's not to say they're bad ( personally they look really cool), I'm just going to play the patient game waiting in the bushes and when I see my opportunity I will pounce on my prey like a predator .

Keep up the good work .

I'm stuck at a crossroads... not sure if I should pay my phone bill and rent... or pay my rent and buy new IS Mech Package

[18Rabbit]

Big question to me is, will we be getting the Grashopper 7K (GHR-7K) with ECM? That would be amazing.

The big question to me is... how can 30+ people know about the variant, ask about the variant... and not be aware that it's a 3068 mech... 19 years ahead out of the current timeline.

Pretty much the only mech in this pack I want is the Zeus. The Enforcer is OK and the only reason I'd buy it is because

The other two not interested in really.

[Malleus011]

Any idea when we'll see the official page for the Resistance 'mechs? I'd sort of assumed today, but apparently not yet.

Tomorrow - Wednesday is the announced date for that

im in, but one question,.....with CW will I not be able to play IS mechs and clan Mechs when I want? ive read diferent stuff over the past couple months that confuse me.

so can I play what I want when I want for who I want?

[Mr. Bitterness]

Enough of the freaking Packages, Jesus.

[LazarusII]

Loving the new pricing too, still a bit much but cheaper than the other options so far.

[Alex Morgaine]

Quick reminder to people arguing about "yet another package" etc. This is for people who done want clan mechs, but missed the earlier packages and want to qualify for the crab.the other stuff is just icing really.
As long as this doesn't take away from (yes phone, fun too) production of CW, there shouldn't be any problem anyway.more mechs, plus quirks just means(hopefully) more target rich environments.

Don't buy it?

Many people wanted it so they could buy an IS package for Atlas-S and King Crab eligibility, otherwise they probably would have waited.

If you are playing CW game modes (which mean this WILL NOT AFFECT standard solo/group queue) you will need to choose a faction (either Is or Clan) and can play only mechs of that faction (if you are with the Kurita you can't drop with clan mechs, if you are with the Bears you can't drop with IS mech)

What's your problem?

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ENOUGH MECHS!
