Well, they could at least swap some colors for big-four Clan factions. I mean, different shades of the same colors.

I was one of the people that chose all four of the same faction last Wave, so I would not mind some different shades at all, lol. They are highly unlikely to change the colors of the current pack though, and at best it would be an additional bonus to meet some internal sales goal mid-preorder, if anything (like they did with Resistance).

Honestly, though, I would just rather have the ability to change the color on my faction camos, or be able to apply them to my Wave 1 or Invasion mechs...

In the future should allow us to make our own waves if that makes sense? Also camo's for wave one...please my Timberwolves don't fit in...then again still working on them..

Also If I don't buy before this Friday (28th) say I want to get the Shadowcat package for $60, what would I not get just the one variant of both mechs?

If you buy before Feb 28th, you get an extra variant of each of the tiers you purchased at that point. Future purchases do not give the 4th variant after the end of the month.

So, if you purchase the ShadowCat tier by Feb 28th, you would get 4 Arctic Cheetahs and 4 Shadow Cats. If you then upgrade to the CB tier on March 1st, you only get 3 of the CBs for that tier, as you no longer qualify for the Feb bonus.

You do know youre not required to buy anything right? Why do people act like they HAVE to have stuff theyre unwilling to pay the asking price for?

I agree, the nerve of some people!

I cannot afford to buy these Mech Packs, only buy $7 or $15 worth of MC here and there to get Mech bays. I have no Problem waiting for these Mechs to be available for Cbills Months from now!!!

Dude, the all 4 of these Wave III Mechs are gonna be kick ass, in terms of Fitting MY PLAYSTYLE, etc! :)

I long for the day PGI comes out with the 20 ton Clan PIRANHA Mech!!! 12 MGs OMG :lol:

And I say people who are the cheapskates convinced "pgi would make more money if it were cheaper!" and "I shouldnt have to spend what the item costs but i want it waaaaah" are entitled, self absorbed children who need to grow up and learn about life. You dont want to spend the money? Fine. But that doesnt mean the price is absolutely justified by the subjects I stated. It doesnt matter if it is justified to you. Its justified to PGI. and thats really the only one who counts. As sharwolf said, if you want to make a difference, organoze a boycott. Thats the only way itll change. But it wont work. Because a lot of people arent so poor that a 100 bucks is a huge deal on short notice. Youd probably cry if you saw how much I spent on 3d printed miniatures, but that doesnt mean theyre price isnt justified. Could they be cheaper? sure. But they arent. So get over that. Itll help you in the long run.



If you are living paycheck to paycheck, you need to save your money, not spend it on video games. But thats just my opinion. To be poor and whine because you cant buy what you want when you could save your money is rediculous. And if you tell me you dont have enough to save, you dont have enough to spend on video games. PERIOD.


In other words... "Shut up peasant!"

*sigh* Rich people.

Just wait till the mechs are out for C-bills, that what I'm doing for the Gargoyle, and Hellbringer. Seriously, it's not that big a deal.

True. I have done that for the Kit Fox and Dire Wolf. (...and that the Timber Wolf was really the only "I MUST HAS NOW!" mech of the game.)

In the past two clan collections, the polygon camo was a preorder bonus. I do not see this for the third wave. Will we get this? If not, why not??? I would love to have consistency with my chassis...

(I noticed that Phil Ambush brought this up on page 8, but no one has addressed it since...)

Seconding the thoughts of those who have commented that the early adoption deadline is nuts. I'd like to pick up the special variants, but expecting people to have $120 laying around to drop on a videogame within a time of scarcely more than a week is pure craziness.

An extension of that time period to a month or two out from now would be infinitely more reasonable. I can't speak for everyone, but I don't think I would pick up this package for real money if I had already lost out on a bunch of cool variants because of a crazypants arbitrary exclusionary timetable that suddenly demanded a pile of cash at the tail end of February or else. Speaking honestly, I'd be a little bitter about it.

Well the thing is... The 30 dollar package with faction content... early adopter and 3 month early purchase... premium time , cockpit items, the mechs, mech bays, Prime (I), etc... the 30 dollar package is around 130-150 USD estimate and in the past some 20 to 30 dollar packs were above 150 USD.

I do not want to be a ****, but even the first tier is very good (30 dollars) even after the early purchase stuff.

30 dollars isn't that expensive... that's the same price as 5 Big Macs (in most country, I heard USA has it cheaper then water which concerns me...)


If you got a decent job, you could get a few packs ever few weeks (or if you saved before hand, get it all at once).

I do not want to be a "I am a rich person outside of USA so get on my level" attitude, which it isn't... It is just that some people make a mountain of a molehill. Having better control of how you spend your money and making small sacrifices for gains do help a bit...

Trust me. I have been in very harsh times in my life. Economically and such. if you are persistent you will persevere.

It is a 3049 mech. Technically it is older then the Direwolf, Timberwolf, and kitfox S's I believe.

However this mech wasn't seen in the inner sphere until 3052 due to how new they are and how they were not in the front lines at first, they mainly appeared after the Clan Smoke Jaguars started losing the war.

Considering CW atm, as far as MW: O is concerned, that time is now.

7 dollars and 50 cents currently in NZD. Which is 5 dollars 66 cents USD.

The thing is I am around the AVERAGE for the price of these kind of foods like the Big Mac, there are some countries who have it for 14 USD and such.

This is why some people make fun off USA... it's sad to see a bottle of water, milk, or a carrot or an apple cost MORE then a Big Mac or something.

I am not saying that everyone in USA is automatically fat, not at all. not even close. but it is very concerning and not really logical. It could be this dirt cheap in USA due to the fact it is in VERY high demand and thus they have so many in USA that they are not wasted when mass produced but still need to be sold..

I'm not sure behind the reasoning. All I know is that you consider me weird and I consider you weird and concerning :P
