PGI.

First off. Great work with new rewards. Loving it.

Secondly. Not totally convinced regarding fixed JJ, but as it's being applied to all omni's I'll live with it for now.

Onto the main point....

With the fixed JJ omni's I now have a rather large collection of Clan weapon systems I can no longer mount on either my TBRs or my NVAs.

It is possible to be re-funded the C-Bills I used to pay for these, to purchase more appropriate weapon systems?

Should I make a list and email support?

I doubt they'd refund CBills.
Stuff is gonna get balanced at some point, you just have to live with it in any MMO.

It's a different thing with real money/MC, probably. You'd have to contact support directly for that, though.

Only proper reaction is to NOT SPEND MONEY FOR THIS BS ANYMORE.

Fair enough I suppose. I guess I just wanted to highlight that I've worked hard for my stuff and now it's useless as I don't have any 'Mechs to put them on...

^^This... Maybe I'll take the $$ I was thinking of putting on Clan Wave II and upgrade my Elite: Dangerous Pre-order to Beta access...

Thanks for the ride PGI! It's been great! I'll stick around and will still play with my friends, but the wallet is officially closed...

Thanks Capt' Obvious.

Still can't fit those weapons that I bought and now can't use, on either of them can I?

Yep I second that. No more spending on MWO. Enough is enough this is the second time this **** happened. They are called omnimechs for a reason; I wouldn't call them omnimechs if you can't remove 2 frigging jumpjets thus ruining the entire setup. Nice work PGI.

Hate to burst your bubble (Well, dont really hate it... actually I quite enjoy popping them), but;

Quote

OmniMechs are not fully modular. An OmniMech's structural components (its engine, internal structure, armor and any equipment installed on the base chassis of OmniMech) are "hard-wired" and cannot be modified outside of a total redesign of the 'Mech.[30] While customization of these components is theoretically possible in the field, it is avoided as it hard-wires all the 'Mechs components and effectively transforms the OmniMech into a standard BattleMech.

Seriously, people are whining about space money??

And if you are so butthurt about someone nerfing your super mech back to reality then good riddance.

Oh dear god, I have never come across a more entitled group in a forum. Its a nerf which you were told about long before it actually happened, to a mech which everyone agreed was way overpowered, BECAUSE it could mount that much weaponry AND the JJ's anywhere you wanted, now you can't. This is a long overdue change. If you guys are seriously going in a huff over some space money you paid to make a build in a game which you are fully aware can change then you might need to sit down and have a think about yourselves. Either that or go outside and get a life.

Also you could simply stick them on another mech in another set up couldn't you?

But... the Graphics options are terrible there, Respawn times are horendous, RL makes Korean MMOs look easy in terms of the leveling and grinding... and yelling at monks to heal you only reward you with a very funny look.

Not only that, but Mechbays are more expensive than mechs! What kind of pricing scheme is that?

Have you ever visited the forums for Star Citizen? If you really want to see entitled, go check it out...

As for 'simply stick them on another 'mech in another set up couldn't you?'

Well, no. I only own TBRs and NVAs and they have their load-outs, minus the weapons I can no longer use of course :)

But I'll make you a deal. You buy me more clan 'mechs and I'll put these weapons on them?

No I am trying my best to avoid that place until an actual game exists, one thing you can say for PGI over RSI (may be the only thing) is that they have more of a game right now, by a slim margin admittedly.

How about you grab a stormcrow while they are on sale? You save about 5mil off their normal price, plus they are excellent mechs.

If not, I will make you a promise, if they ever allow people to gift CBill mechs and you are still stuck with all these utterly useless weapons littering the floor of your mech bay I will buy you another mech.
