You're welcome.
UrbanMech's rewards do not include premium time as the pre-order bonus as instead it's modules and knickknacks...
But standard Urbanmechs includes 30 days. The collector's pack which I'm just calling OverUrbie nets in 60 days of premium time.
Dunno if you're interested in the tin can, but I figure it's worth mentioning.

Wut?


I didn't think the Urbanmech had any PRE ORDER stuff per say....just some extras they are throwing in with it. I could be way off base though....wouldn't be the first time! and not the last!

Yeah thinking about the $20 pack as it is worth the money (I think) not counting the Urbie. Plus who knows, maybe they will add more pre-order rewards.

Gotta wait till I get paid tomorrow though.

Could someone take a look at my thread in the 'website and api' forum, I asked a question about the rewards. Thanks.

Ordering before January 31st gets you:

• 3 Beer steins with Urbanmech on them (really? Those beer steins are getting old...)
  
• Polygon automatically unlocked (so you can pretend you're a Clan mech, the Urbie IIC! Still, nice to have a pattern and always helpful.)
  
• AC/10 cooldown module (alright that is useful)
  
• 360 degree target retention module (not really useful for the Urbanmech, but humorously handy when you consider you can spin 360 degrees!)

PSA: The *only* place to activate your banked premium 30 days at a time is here on the website. Hitting the button in-game kicks it all off at once, and Customer Service can't undo it.

Thank you, this is indeed very important. I wish there was a warning when you clicked the activate button that stated very clearly that it would start ALL time. I know at least a couple Founders accidently did this and had a ton of time dumped in all at once.

1) Yeah, I have no clue what I am going to do with all this silly cockpit stuff. I have like 30 knickknacks that I don't even want to use, like 2 lumps of coal.
2.) I'm not even all that crazy about the Poly Camo. Pretty ugly if you ask me, but at least it allows me to color a mech all one color.
3) Now I need to figure out which mechs have AC10 quirks...
4) How is that module useful again? I am trying to figure out a scenario where I would want to use it over Radar Dep, Seismic or Adv Target Decay.

[Felicitatem Parco]

360 degree target retention is a short-range hard counter to radar deprivation...

[Hydrocarbon]

HEY! I found an advanced copy of the Urbanmech Warhorn!

Streak boats are the best use for the module. You really don't want to lose that lock on the fast ECM light circling you...

Advanced Target Decay comes in equally handy with LRMs, I think. You can even poptart with it + artemis. I have a few of them, so it goes into any mech with targeted missiles.

Thanks Knoiving.....for showing me the light at the end of my Urbie cockpit!


I dont use any of the Beer Steins because they are so brightly lit its distracting and you cant even see the logo on the front of any of them because the lighting is so stupid.

Everything else is dark grey and dim in the cockpit but that god damn Stein is lit up like the 4th of july. Really is indicative of rushed, shotty work.

Yeah, I have 44 days on mine and am not hitting it until the Zeus arrives: I want to be able to level it up quick.

[White Bear 84]

Can you gift the resistance pack to get the rewards?

I also assume that if you bought it from the get go you get 54 days premium time? Assuming that the premium time follows the same as the items e.g. initial buyers will get everything from the star hanging item to the mechbay and the modules.

Just.. ..to clarify.

[Errant Variable]

I may have missed it, but there is a critical question to be answered. Does the "collectors' edition" mesh include a tophat and a monocle?

I don't care if the result is a light mech as tall as a Cataphract. There's several package upgrades riding on a proven "yes" to this.
