Did anyone get their Premium time from purchasing a Resistance pack?

[Crimson Myst]

Stupid question.. but when do we get all our items? Colors? Warhorns?

[Ballimbo]

If someone at PGI reads along in this thread:
Please put up a time schedule in the FAQ for all those extra things (besides the mechs)!

It gets asked again and again, after every 4th post or so. And not one of all the brave souls trying to help can possibly answer those questions. So, please, please, publish a (estimated if it needs to be) time schedule for that stuff!
(btw. I'm waiting for it, too ).

I purchased early and received the P-time at all of the scheduled injections, 30 in Dec, 14 in Jan, and I expect another 7 at the end of Feb.

It appears I did

I am supposed to get a couple months from ordering before February I think.

I'm afraid to hit the activate button to find out.. waiting for my Grasshoppers first

[Zarock]

ust to Keep spamming you guys with this question: When will we get our Faction-Content?
And when will the Resistance Package appear under "Content"?

You can check the full amount of banked PT on the forum.
Just click on PROFILE on the top right and you will have a row in the middle of your profile showing
"Banked Premium Time: X Hours" and a button "Activate 30 Days of Premium Time" to the right of it.

I don't know how much I had before, but now I have a big stack of 3,960h = 165days = 5.5 months from multiple Packs.
(I think I used up both Veteran Founders and Overlord Phoenix package Premium Time already, but none of my Clan/Resistence time. Just too lazy to calculate/count)

So here's a question for all of us Resistance Pack purchasers:

They have just recently dropped the Panther and Enforcer mechs. How are they doing? What are your comments, suggestions, rants and praises for them.

On a short personal note, I am finding the Panther a bit hard to learn with Double Heat Sinks an absolute MUST. I see potential but I also see this is not a traditional MWO Light and can't be run as such.

The Enforcer however I do like. It's a straight-forward mech meant to get into the thick of things instead of hiding behind walls and poptarting. I particularly like the 5P with its stock DHS, two Ultra AC/5s and a decent amount of ammo. WIth Endo, I bet I could cram a bigger engine, some CASE and ammo and still be able to upgrade the small lase into a pair of mediums.

Personally, I am struggling with the Panther AND the Enforcer.
But I only had enough Cbills to add DHS to the 10K (ERPPC) Panther and Endo to the 5P (UAC5) Enforcer.
It might just be very bad luck, but getting a light pack or a bunch of to-the-teeth-armed heavy/assault mechs when leveling these fragile chassis led to a lot of painfull ends.

I had quite some fun with ERPPC poking some matches, or dual UAC5 (Endo gives you 2.5t extra, so about 5 tons of ammo is barely enough) makes quite some fun.

I switched to my Orions or Stormcrows for some change to see if I could use LRM/SRM/Streaks to get the upper hand against too many lights or assaults, but luck left me again and I got Alpine in SRM builds with 5+ LRM boats on the other side and none on ours.
Or a light pack instantly coring from the back ;P

Anyway, the mechs are decent, but leveling them will still be quite difficult. Having enough CBills to upgrade them before playing helps alot (which I don't have). Eliteing them with GXP to get double basics and speed tweak will help even more

Some good builds I saw were the LL or (M) Pulse Laser Panthers/Forcers.

after calculating it backwards it seems for me that i got 7 Days (preorder bonus) but not the full PT value from the big Resistance-pack.

Edit: I had fun in my Panther®, but i´m a bit disapointed by the enforcers (i like Mediums very much).

I really like my Enforcer 5D. I added Double Heat Sinks. I use 280XL, LBX and 2x ERL. This mech is fun to play

[Joe Mallad]

To those asking, Russ said a update thread would be coming soon about the colors/skins and they are to be distributed on the 17th of March but the skin selection option will be open to us before then.

As for how I'm doing with the new Panther and Enforcers so far... I have yet to bring my Enforcers out but am having a blast with the Panthers. Sure it's one of the slower IS lights but it seems to hold its own and can take some punichment too. Have been doing very well with them. It is definitely a hit and run skirmish mech. And you have to pick your battles. But it does seem to have quite a bite for a small mech.

It seems to have been added to the banked time in my profile.

[Max OConnor]

I Have to say I've been waiting for the Enforcer which has always been one of my all time favorite Mechs to use. It was the first one I took out; the 4R, and I got 2 kills and 3 assists in the first match and lived. It handled like a dream and I was overjoyed to be able to play the Mech I would most likely use if I were a real pilot. I know 2 kills and 3 assists isn't much for some people here but that is nearly unheard of for my old reflexes. She is a real beauty. Thanks guys.

The Enforcer is fantastic. It just needs work put into it with its loadouts. Its not like a storm crow where you can slap whatever on it and go to town.

So... Devs. You've announced Clan Wave 3 with tons of details and information

Yet the Resistance page/FAQ is still lacking some minor details

When are we getting our Faction content and goodies?

In the Town Hall Last night Russ stated we will get our content colours when the Final Mechs are delivered.

March 17th I believe.
