Get your minds out of the gutter! The last re-enforcement package for the clans PGI trickled in the mechs one at a time. I think it was one mech every two weeks. What the heck is that about? Are they going to that with the IS re-enforcement pack? Kinda urks me that I pay money to get teased! Guess I'm just a masochistic person.

My mind is always in the gutter, though I don't understand why in this case.

I daresay the mechs are trickled to either maximize profits, which I completely understand, or because they haven't all been fully designed when the first are released.

I do wish they all released at the same time though. The whole point of my impulse purchases is to own all the things, now!

QA dude..

Doing these models takes time, each one needs an ingame model, a high definition model for Normal mapping, LOD stages, Shadow geometry, Hitbox geometry, then they need to be torn down and UVW mapped, then textured, then rigged, then animated.

On top of that, each one needs its own unique Cockpit made, UVWmapped, textured, animated ect.
And then sounds have to be done up for engine, servos ect..

Depending on how many artists they have, its a lengthy and tedious process all on its own.

They put them out as they're ready, its alot of work man :P

They released the Phoenix and the Clan Invasion mechs all at one time when you purchased the advanced sales packages. Your point is invalid.
