Soon is a relative term Also i didn't say "C-Bill sales on all mechs" it was more like ~"we will be looking at doing C-bill mech sales soon"~ but if you look at our sales from the beginning of last year it will provide a clue.

Hey Matt,

When the cbill mech sales happen, can someone check that all of the cbill mechs have a chance to be on sale?

The faction sales had a couple of IS mechs (and cbill colors) that did not go on sale, one of the fs9s did not but the other 3 did for example.

Thanks, looking forward to cbill mech sales!

I like it!

Also the Heroes and Champs are back on sale now till Dec 31st at Midnight PST.

Here is the Pro tip.

Step 1: Buy MC and get 20% more MC

Step 2: Buy Premium time on Sale, Buy Mech Bays on Sale, Buy Hero Mech on Sale.

Step 3: Profit {Use Premium time and Hero mech to Earn Mad C-Bills while also playing in the Stocking Stuffer event and winning stuff.}

Step 4: Buy extra Mech bays and leave them open for inevitable Mech C-bill sale.

Step 5. Play MWO with your newly purchased 1/2 off Hero mech during the double XP event with your half off premium time activated!

Does buying MC in this sale count towards the 2016 loyalty awards? (assuming they are happening) i have just bought the 12k pack and am now worried that i should have waited for new years day to qualify for the 2016 awards?

[Ducciojzr]

Thanks PGI. And now... C-Bill sales on all mechs? C-Bill sales on all mechs? C-Bill sales on all mechs?

So this premium time, I hear it is instant, and not bankable. Is this true? This is a stellar deal, 20% extra MC and then 50% off prem time, but given how I play in spurts not being bankable hurts.

Anything bought "in game" is immediate activation.

Anything bought from the online store, check the fine print (some are immediate, some are banked).

Time to stock up on mechbays. I only have 152 with 10 more coming in preorders. I think 10 extra should hold me over til the next sale.

I hope that is not the case, i would hate to be penalised for the sake of few hours... i have emailed billing support to see about a refund. Not the end of the world though, no doubt i will purchase more MC at some point in 2016, but its nice to be covered just in case.

Nevermind, i just relised that the 20% extra mc was part of the boxing day sale, which ends on the 31st at midnight, i thought it was part of the resolution sale, my bad.

13 new bays and 10mc left - A happy new year to you all mechwarriors!!!

[SmithMPBT]

Great Deal, thanks guys. Bought 19 mechbays and a year of premium all under 50 bucks.

[Leartes]

Just bought 10 mechbays. Wondering if I should buy 20 more or save the MC for a mastery bundle.

[valt901]

Don't buy more mech bays because you can win them in events or playing CW and getting to level 2. i have 10 extra and didn't buy any of them.

The mastery bundles come with mech bays and are excellent value.

A couple of bucks buying mech bays (they're what, 50 cents each?) especially when they are on sale - is a good investment. Trying different Mechs is one of the key fun things to do in this game.
