...Look better on Clan wave 1 and some of wave 2. Most camo patterns on the EBJ look fuzzy compared to how they would look on wave 1 / 2 mechs...save the Hellbringer.

Because camos have a range of different texture resolutions on different mechs. Some Camos on some mechs are 2048x2048, others are for no apparent reason 512x512. Lordred has a full chart of which mechs have which resolutions.

It's dumb, and I'd give my left nut for a High Res Texture Pack. I hate the low res textures, they look awful and ruin what would be great camos.

as above, there is no QC on the textures on the mechs, some are basically low res and others high etc. It pretty much shows you the priorities of the devs in pumping out money packs than older mechs

a better question is the following

why don't the wave 1 buyers get faction content for wave 1?

Also in regards to your mechs paint, why does paint cost as much as a light mech? Is there a paint shortage in this vision of future warfare?

Because this is an E-Sports game with big tournaments and millions of players, thats why it has to run on potato machines. How could you miss that!

They have the 4K resolution textures laying around, but when someone asked Russ if we could have them, he just said "Oh we have 4K textures?"

I know everyone is all googly eyed over 4K, but honestly even 2K makes a huge difference in reducing the blurriness of the camouflages.
