I kind of hate you....in a good way.

Just hurry and release the others, then give us a special reward for buying all the top tier Iconic mechs lol

Why do i get the feeling that the BLACK WIDOW hero mech is pay to loose !?

4 energy + 4 ballistics + 1 missile
sounds so much worse then
6 energy + 3 missile
or 9 energy !

i hope it get super quirks because munting AC`s ont seems to defet the purpose of the warhammer...tough you might get some "meta" build out of it.

Bought it nontheless^^

Do you know that there is a variant of the Warhammer with a pair of ER PPCs and one Light Gauss Rifle?

And the most powerful (Unseen) 'Mech of the 3025 era that you could buy - the mighty 100-tonner Marauder II - is not worth mentioning? ;)

Axeman and Cerberus are not unseen, so won't be returning as Icons. I would love to have an Axeman though, although the axe would be wasted tonnage and critical slots in MWO.

Dirty move PGI.

So you know people have been waiting for these and you decide to double the price??!!!
40$ per single chassis is the new norm for packages???!


what's next?... we have more "icons" remaining. let me give you a suggestion:
20$ for 3 variants without mechbays or any other things.
40$ for above + mechbays and stuff.
60$ for an additional cbill bonus mech!!!
seriously PGI... do it... people will totally buy!.

What do you mean? they lowered the price not doubled. If you are saying people do not want to buy it because it is cheaper then I do not think PGI will mind to increase the costs...

AGAIN! YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY THIS MECH PACK TO PLAY MWO, so if you think that it is: overpriced, unfair, not a good deal...whatever, then DON'T BUY IT!

Finally.

Thank you PGI for whatever it is you did to obtain the license to use the Marauder and now, the Warhammer. Waited 3 years for this day to arrive, and it finally came.

Bought the package and the hero mech, cuz I love this mech to death. :)

I don't think you see my point. I want them... every BT fan out there wants them...i got the collector MAD and 20$ WHM... But at the same time, you know they are ripping you off!.... milking the nostalgia dry! you could get more with 20$ for previous IS packs.
Am i not allowed to say that?

...um, then don't buy it.

I love the Black Knight but I'll wait till it C-Bill mech. Only pay what you think is fair. Give yourself a budget and don't spend a dollar more. People paid $20-40 for the Urbie so of course this looks like a good model for future sales. I'm still amazed people keep buying $80 mech packs for a free to play game but hell, it's their money.

Where were YOU buying packs from? All the ones I have seen have ALWAYS been $20 per chassis. :huh:

You can say whatever you want, but the reality is, that these mechs will be available for Cbill in-game at a later time, so you either pay to have it early, or wait and get it for free, but either way, no one is prevented from having a Warhammer.

Personally, I am glad that I bought this pack. For me it is for pure nostalgia and appreciation for this game. I rarely talk about stuff like this but it gets annoying really quickly. Every single time I look at a thread talking about a Mech Pack or a countdown, I always see ingrates say some stupid crap like, " I won't buy this because: it doesn't follow the classic art design, until I see more content, because I have a grudge with PGI, or yadda yadda yadda". For people who don't want to get these packs due to things like, income reasons, taking a break spending, or budgeting I will not fault anyone.

However, for people who refuse to buy these Unseen packs (or any other pack for that matter) for excuses, all I have to say is:

1. "These Mechs look ugly, I want the classic unseen art now.":
If PGI decided to go ahead and bring back the classic art, Harmony Gold would bite'em in the balls. I understand that Catalyst released their own art of the "classic" Marauder and Warhammer, but here remember the fate of MW5.

2. "Wow more mechs instead of content, this mech is going to be D.O.A.":
If you do not like the pack, then don't buy it. Look at the F.A.Q. and see when the mechs will come out for MC and C-bills. No one is forcing you to buy them, so I don't know why you feel it necessary to tell everyone that. As for the D.O.A comment, anyone who berates a mech as being D.O.A before they come out is an idiot. I've seen most skilled players turn bad mechs into masterpieces and I would laugh at anyone who got beaten by a "D.O.A" mech.

3. "There is no content coming.":
Look at the Monthly Roadmaps, Weekend Updates, and Instagram post, they are showing/telling you what is being added to the game currently. I wish we could have more cool stuff too, but we have to be patient.

4. "I will not support PGI by spending anymore money!":
Even if you are boycotting PGI and saying that your are not going to support them, you are still giving support by playing this game. So you are really giving them are numbers and statistics (if not feedback) on activity.

So for the ingrate forum dwellers, shut up and enjoy what you have.

I totally agree (since I have been saying pretty much the same thing for quite a while)....

But Will...FRR? I thought you were Clanners? Was it that loss against the Smoke Jags that did it?

Thanks it is the same type of repetitive bitching and moaning I grow tired of everyday.

As for the jaguars, no, I just wanted to take a break from the clans and see what the IS factions were like.

You know that concept art for the Black Widow doesn't match your listed specs for it right? The left and right torso should contain 2 Machine Gun & 1 Medium Pulse Laser each. Which would match it's max hardpoint limits as well. I would like to see concept art for it's actual weapon mounting. I'm much less inclined to buy it with flawed concept art. I don't think I'm out of line here, as using concept art is how you have chosen to sell these packs to us.

As for the main pack itself, I will have to do some serious theory crafting before deciding to get it or not.
