I'll take 3 more free mechs

The only thing I'd like is if they could come up with a new skin for them this time around. I don't mind getting an extra set but a new skin would be kind of cool.

Would be easier to apply the skin to other variants...

Instead of doubles it would be nice to receive e.g. a CN9-AL/D(L), AS7-K(L) and KGC-0000/000B(L). Or at least the possbility to sell the new mechs.

Besides, especially the 40USD for the Urbie Collection devaluate the (L) mechs received last year.

I for one appreciate PGI doing this. There has been an influx of new brand players into the game lately (and a few old times who took a break), and this gives them the opportunity to pick up these great mechs, Faction content, and Premium Time at a fair price.

Well done, PGI!

exactly!
I see the whole urbie-thing from another perspectie: Those who missed the 3 Limited Editions can now buy them for 40$..and get a complete urbie set as addition

I had just purchased the wrath pack when the additional modules were announced. Four additional mechs to master and utilise in CW when I get round to trying it again. Plus lots of colours! I have all three of the "FREE" mechs already but I will just strip the duplicates down and use the parts elsewhere (Parts can be sold can't they?)! It would be nice at some point to be able to delete the unused duplicate chassis and free up the mechbay. (I am sure PGI will consider it as they have been awesome so far since taking the reins!)

Support PGI and get some additional "FREE" stuff. If not stop moaning!!!

They could have made new content for the rewards but that costs time and money and their time is better spent on more important things at the moment!

Thanks again PGI! Keep up the good work!!

I'd have to say, as a whole, this is a pretty lousy anniversary celebration.

I read this and started laughing out loud after reading the details.

I agree with some of the other people in this thread - was it really too hard to throw the same skin on 3 different mechs?

At least give an MC equivalent, or make them giftable or sellable. Not that gifting will be required, as everybody will have these "one time only" mechs now.

Thanks... but no thanks. A great start to the next 15 years guys...

[sabujo]

I understand you may want to extend the program to new customers regardless of what was said about the mechs being limited edition. I was a 'little' disturbed about that atfirst, but I am cool with that after a while - afterall we want PGI to thrive.

But I really don't understand why everyone that got the mechs are getting the same again. Those mechs were special as they represente a milestone for our game. Then, despite having a controversial and "hard to work with" permanent paintjob, these mechs cannot be sold and because of the way the UI is constructed, it represents more visual clutter for some - especially clanners.

Why not giving the standard versions of those mechs to those that already have the special version? That way they could be sold or, at least, customized to unit colors. Or offer a module package, or c-bill chunk, or an engine bundle... It would look less of a lazy way to celebrate the company's birthday.

Anyway, thanks for the freebies but I hope you reconsider this kind of solution for future events.

Screw everyone complaining about the duplicates thing:

THANK YOU PGI!


WITH TWO CN9-AH(L), I CAN NOW SELL EVERY OTHER MECH I OWN!


Because yes, i really, really love that mech, it's a damned moneymaker, and by far the funniest mech we have till now!

Also, lol, urbie collectors pack grants me more free mechs, another good reason to be proud of the choice

I'm guessing I can't vendor the doublers for cbills?

[Joe Mallad]

I'll take another set but I'd like a new skin on them. I've said in other threads, I'd like the Ilya star league skin on my 3

Welcome to Redeeming Zone 2.0. Where all the rewards you got before are being redeemed repeatedly for no particular reason. Just that they are. As the world watches 100 monkeys incessantly type Shakespeare for no particular reason at all.

As for me, well, I got all three already. Bought the UrbanMech $20 package just this past weekend. Maybe, Russell Bullock will see an enlightenment and give us players who have already got all three `Mechs something different. Say the combination to that safe in Fort Knox? Or perhaps, tell us that UFOs are real and the universe as we all know it is something entirely different than what we're truly led to believe. Or even better, admit that the Hula Girl is a really a lie for no reason. In any case, here's to PGI, may the Schwarzenegger be with them.

Can I also upgrade an existing package?
Because i got an Urbanmech for my birthday.

Well, I already had the Wrath and Masakari, so I have all those loyalty mechs, but last week I bought Resistance and Urbanmech, so I get more loyalty mechs?

So, you caved after all?

[michaelius]

I'd be interedted if we could swap all those 3 IS reward mechs for 1 or 2 clan mechs with cbills boost.

And actually ability to sell previous reward mechs to get mech bay free would be welcome too.

[CygnusX7]

I'll take duplicates, thanks!

[Eric darkstar Marr]

Love the idea however it really does lessen the feeling of the loyalty mechs.

They should just take that skin wrap it on 3 other mechs and call it good. Wouldn't care if it was a released already variant, just something different then getting a second set because I am super loyal and throw money at the game.

Here have a Locust 3M with the skin and And a Battlemaster 3M and also a Griffen 3M. Wow looking there are quite a bit of 3M models... See that could be a theme of sorts.

Yes I kinda sound ungrateful but the point of the loyalty mechs was here is your chance get them now or not anymore. And really most of us do not need dupes of the 3 and its wasted since we can not sell them.

[NAZGUULL]

i'll be making sure not to buy anything until after feb 28th god knows I don't want another 3 mechs that I cant sell. - congrats to those that missed out and now have a chance to pick them up.

If you give away this "unique" present, make dem founder mechs available too.

I don't like this move, I feel less upperclass now.

[EAP10]

I feel kind of upset that I got the $120 Daishi package and only got the atlas last time, and got the cent because I bought mc earlier. But now I see that you can get ALL THREE of them for only $40, when me paying $120 got me one. I think its a great idea to put these guys back up as exclusives, but please, I feel a little ripped off.


Even the wraith pack has the same amount of mechs, with the same bonuses as the daishi pack, for $40 less.
