Is there a reason that you can't replace the ugly Prime(I) camo, but can change it on the regular Prime variants?

That does explain it in an unfortunate way.

The Invasion timby has bike racks on the arms and different calves for one.

Those little thing that pop out.

Some are bike racks, some are spikes, or the Myth Lynx with the rounded legs.



Camo patterns don't fit on them. Hence why the new mechs, without Custom Geo, can use the same Camos.


Why they don't just throw those custom Geo parts on top of the normal Camo, and the same colour the Geo currently is? I'm not the one to ask.

Ah, well that's pretty lame. That (I) camo is more ugly than the ® camo somehow.

They started this with wave 3 i think that you can repaint and recamo it (is that a word?). Even the founders mech shall get this. eventually. soon. it is in the pipe...

Thats what they did with the Wave III pack. I've been able to paint all of my (I) variant mechs from Wave III since I got them. All of the custom geometry pieces are a blackish metal color that is unpainted on various parts. Like the coffin shaped right arm shield on the Executioner instead of the normal one, or the black bulb things on the (I) Shadow Cat, or the extensions on the side torsos on the (I) Ebon Jaguar, or the black bulbs on the (I) Arctic Cheetah.

They look pretty great and painting is allowed.

I think Wave III is when they started doing it like this, as the Wave II and I mechs don't allow it.

by the time soon™ comes around we will be long gone from playing clans and I won't have any reason to bother wasting the MC on it.

Clan mechs are interesting in short bursts and good for padding psr in solo queue, otherwise I find them pretty bland outside the nicer hud colors.

They are going to make it so.... soon.

Russ already said that they will add camo support to (I), ®,(L), etc mechs
