Is putting these on the Gift store a first step to making them available on Steam?

Has the gift store started using regional pricing? Wouldn't make much sense to put them on Steam otherwise.

So, no Thunderbolt Mastery Pack yet? Sent a Tweet with the idea. We have a Hero and a Champion now.

At least the other ones are in the store.

was looking in the store... and we can no longer buy single mechs to gift? I was going to buy two single Clan mechs for my brother but not seeing the option anymore?

I'd bet that there will be a few kids who want one for Christmas........

Good marketing move really.

The Resistance offering (not resistance 2) has three Rage packs.

Yeah, not sure if you guys noticed it already, but the Hankyu Pack is using the Gladiator concept art.
Also, is the Orion pack 30$ only? The 'Phract's Pack is 32$ (33$?) and Trebuchet's pack is 30$ too, but when clicking for details it's detailed as 28$.

Not only this, but 3 of the 4 Resistance 1 Packs are titled "Rage Pack"

Good move, but where are the commando and locust mastery packs?!?!

(Ps. The Blackjack pack is definitely going on my Christmas list )

Wolverine and Thunderbolt have all the ingredients available. It's been requested a couple times in the "Features" area.

Please add these, it only makes sense to monetize them now that the requisite mechs are in-game now.

For that, we need Champion Build Voting threads made. Battlemaster and Awesome are the other 2 oldest chassis without the necessary Champions for a pack. [/Hint]

PRICES ARE REDICULOUS!

Finally! Been saying this is what should have been in the gift store from the beginning. Really if it's the packs you designed for a player to buy as, get into a mastered mech quickly... why wasn't this the core of the gift store, it makes way more sense to gift a friend a full set of mechs they can master (including a champ and a Hero) so they can get right into the game, than it does to gift them a random single variant of a mech that they wont be able to afford the rest of for hours and hours of play.

I noticed this and laughed.

Y no Gold Arctic Cheetah Pack for 500 $ as the other ones are still on sale?

[Saratov]

Steam? regional pricing? when?

[Voras]

Yip... would have been the best time to add TDR and WVR Mastery Packs to the list...

20% off on steam but near 50 dollars for assualt mastery? That is not worth it, thats a whole slew of new games there

because the only Gold Mechs were from the original Clan invasion (wave 1) pack, it was IGPs idea _{(IGP was the publisher of MWO until August 2014)}, due to the backlash about the $500 for 1 Mech the Masikari pack was added to a gold Mech purchase and PGI have never done Gold Mech packs since

You're not alone there, brother. I've been waiting for this. And now, my patience has paid off in spades. Going through the gift shop gives me the option on which one I can buy instead of using the in-game store option. With this option, I can buy all sets of the Mastery `Mechs, or a mix thereof. Thank you, PGI! It's about damn time!

Ha, I did not know this page was still up. I've seen only 1 or 2 of these goldies in the wild.

Instead of always wanting to sell sell sell .you had better move your *** and buy servers , and stop nerf mechs that have been purchased two months before.

Seriously more than 5 minutes for a simple game
