Bought one. The premium time alone makes it worth it, and it's just a good idea that we as a community show support to the developers. They are willing to give us something we've been asking for, so it's good to show we will put our money where our mouths are.

This community is fascinating. It's like a true reflection of first world professionals and their socialization. There's all kinds of things to be addressed with the game, way more important than new mechs, but because it's part of an community-promoted internet meme, you guys have a "demand" for the urbanmech. This is why Russ needed to have a preorder, and actually confirm that this isn't just human stupidity. Well, it is, but he (wisely) decided to capitalize.

It's like our modern society. It's falling apart, but the easily-amused go back to being distracted by something frivolous, and unnecessary. I mean, there's still invisible edges to maps, but dammit, let's get PUMPED ABOUT THE URBANMECH.

Really?

Yet, you're still playing, so you should be thankful for people who spend money to keep it running and enjoy it beyond it's flaws.

@ Bishop:

Checked the preorders page in my profile, there it is listed as owned. So I think I´m fine (but will send a short mail to support). It might just be - or is - a bit confusing that, if someone actually wants to gift it, he has to click "buy as a gift", although you´re allready in the gift store.

Huh, well, a little confusing, but good to know!

No, I derive joy from watching adult nerd man-children be tragically disappointed when a company cashes in on their gullibility, while they crow about having "disposable income." It's like anyone that spent more than a standard triple A title amount for amusement. You're just a sucker, and someone should inform you that you're a sucker. You're welcome.

Signed, a guy that spends disposable income on drinks, lap dances and party favors for his buddies, a far sounder purchase than geometry for a game less than a few thousand people play.

EDIT: not to mention your artificial hype for more mechs is soaking up PGI resources FAAAAARRRRRR better spent elsewhere. A shame.

So you choose to exploit women, abuse alcohol and have parties with your money....that's cool.

But i dont see how that money is any more well spent then what we are doing it on. The fact that you are pissed we have money to spend on this stuff makes me giggle.

I'm gonna buy another pack and gift it to you...then get a free lapdance from my girlfriend.

Got it. The Collector Pack. Why? Don't know...

[Idalgos]

I bought 40$ one! I like dat little urbie and idea of cheap weapon platform on light chasis. Besdides, I think the deal is exceptionally good.
I should buy one for my friend that currently in army, because he likes mighty trashcan too!

Dude, he's putting young women through college, and supporting the whiskey industry. Nothing wrong with that :-p

Well, he is a bit Douchey and annoying, and insuting, but those aside, he's just supporting other fascets of the economy.

I, on the other hand, am supporting development of this game while I drink affordable booze that I bought at the liquor store with my girlfriend who dances on more than just my lap...

well, make sure it's for Thell. The lad is in a cash bind, but seems like a nice kid. If I had money left for mech charity, I'd do it!

I'm going to go home tonight and have a few beers while debating the purchase of an Urbie package. Then I'll have a few more and then maybe a few more. That way I'll make a well informed, well thought out decision. No bad decisions have ever been made after drinking, right?

Sounds like Circumvention is the person you need to talk to about that.
