For the record, it's not just $20 to get the 3R(S). You also get:

30 more days of Premium Time
2 extra Warhorns
2 extra standing items
2 extra hanging items
1 extra title
1 extra badge

Whether or not any of that means anything to you will vary from person to person, but it's not as simple as "$15 BH vs $20 3R(S)".

That is why I really like the new model. $20 for all 3, mech bays and a months premium time to level them up plus some swag to decorate them is a good deal. The extra $20 is steeper but for those of us who love the mech we are happy to spend it. I'd rather spend the $40 on one mech I'll love than $80 on a package of 4 I may hate (and historically have regretted). The extra $15 die the bounty hunter is, in context, steep but that's more a judgement call. It let's people scale up their investment based on what they want while letting those who want to just throw money at it (which supports the model)still do so.

I want PGI to come out of this thinking releasing unseen with close to original art is a great investment so I'll buy whatever they release on it.

Please post the BH build that you think will be P2W so that we can mock you in public explain why it isn't P2W.

Congrats to PGI for lstening to feedback. I'm sure it will mean more sales of the BH and i will be getting it now.

Nice. Another mech for me and another $15 for PGI.

Now if you could only convince Russ that the current ECM system is costing him money somehow...

What's costing him money is the module prices!

Spending so much money and free time buying and swapping F-ing modules. I *want* to buy mechs and mech bays.

The amount of money he's lost not selling mech bays due to module prices is depressing.

In case you haven't seen it elsewhere, PGI also upgraded the IS Top Tier reward. You now qualify for the Zeus if you've purchased both the Urbie Collector Pack and the Marauder Collector Pack.

well

to be fair, cataphract 4x still has its engine capped on 255 for having 2 torso energy and 2 ballistic per arm, all others are at 340, while marauder got a special treatment

My Mauler 2P runs 6 MLases, but with DUAL GAUSS!

It is actually my least performing Mauler of the 4. It's just too hot. Running 7 with a single gauss would be worse. I just don't know about that build for the Marauder. I could see running a Gauss, but energy backup might be tricky. Maybe 3 MPLasers and 4 SLasers :/.

Who knows, maybe it can better handle energy once it receives quirks, but I wouldn't count on that.

So because there are other crippled mechs, it's okay to implement new crippled mechs?
