You get the very special Founders Locust that no one else ever gets. It is even gold plated so that you have nothing to cry about.

I'd get that Locust... Besides the point that the Locust was part of the Pheonix Pack and not a 'Mech that was available in the beta at the time by a long shot.

As a Legendary Founder, it would not bother me in the least if Veteran got one mech and Elite got another. Let them choose which one they want. I feel that having a "Calling all Founders" tournament and excluding one group is wrong. Intentionally or oversight, it is wrong.

I would like to see Founders Mechs get better quirks or ECM something to make them viable over standard variants. They should be respected if not feared on the field. Adding ECM would make them more unique and viable. To keep the Whiners happy have another sell of the mechs post quirk pass and offer a new title something like Promoter package.

As a legendary founder as well, I second this.

I understand the exclusivity of founder status and mechs is kind of the point (THE HORSES SIMON, YOU WEREN'T THERE!) but I think some sort of option for veterans and elites to increase their founder status, or maybe just giving veterans and elites another founder mech eventually, while giving legendary some other reward, would be cool.

So do you go back to Best Buy 2 years after buying a TV and say, "I bought one of the first 120hz 3D tv's I think I need to get a free tablet now."? Wouldn't surprise me if you did. You had the opportunity to ante up the full $120 for the mechs offered but you chose to buy the lower package with the MC. Now you think you are entitled to more free mechs? Sorry if it seems harsh but this community in general feels like it's always, gimme gimme gimme. "You owe me PGI for playing your game." "I have never bought anything but as a player I feel as though you should offer more free item events." "I didn't meet your deadline for additional free items but you have wronged me because you didn't pay attention to my pay schedule." "i will buy that package if you throw in additional items."

Should be, they offer stuff for sale. You either buy it or not. If they have poor results, they make adjustments for the next sale such as a price point or add ons. But now they just have this weird interaction with a very vocal minority that will just gripe about not getting enough for what they are buying. Just don't buy it and PGI will make adjustments.

Anyway PGI, this event was on point. Encouraged people to play the game over the weekend, prizes were so-so. Easy enough so that almost everyone can easily get the prizes without investing too much time.

50,337 of 50,000 kills, well done fellow Founders

How much higher can we get this, 75K? Maybe PGI will add a little something extra to make up for the Veteran Founders lacking Mechs from IGP influenced Mech packaging?

[Grendel408]

odd... now is shows 49,916 of 50,000 for the kill counter?

[Cataclysm315]

I have heard, the mechs will soon have the ability to destroy the trees. Fear my atlas you tree scum!
Am I the only one who is really impressed with this game now though? They really delivered what they said they would?

It' s definitely gotten much better since the fall of IGP, even if the visuals had to suffer to get there. Have you tried CW yet? It can be frustrating to get a match some times, but it's a boatload of fun once you get the hang of it. And especially if you've got aome friends to play it with.

This was a nice event for the Founders. Thanks for putting it together, as it was nice to not see the usual people on the ladder for a change.

Just wanted to add a suggestion as given by someone else for future events like this one:

• Phoenix Pack owners: Additional loyalty medallion of choice
  
• Clan Wave I owners: Kerensky hologram etc.

Well, maybe if I gave them a little something for the start up of one of their company's projects, and if by free tablet you mean the tablet is free to produce, then sure why not.

So... When can we expect the poll for the next map to be revamped?

Forest Colony! Forest Colony!

[_Kodiak_]

it was stated after the event , so tomorrow sometime

[Grendel408]

All Founders better choose Forest Colony... it was the first map we were given, it's only the right thing to do is make that the first map to revamp (with exception to River City changes posted) ...and bring back Glowing eyes on Atlas, and make one Clan Assault with glowing eyes as well for "balance"

[Smoked]

Shrug I still like Forest Colony. My least favorite map is probably Mordor since I like to use weapons.
