coolshot 9x9 (unlocked with GXP) is the same thing, except for c-bills.

Save up in game Cbills and GXP and upgrade the Cbill version to be just as good as the MC version.

Not that hard to make your c-bills back when using coolshots.

UAVs and coolshots I don't have much of a problem with. Arties and airstrikes though need to go or be changed completely. It's no wonder alot of comp tourneys ban or restrict arty/airstrikes.

First response answered how to get a free to play version.

I've never used a coolshot anyway though, even when I have 70+ free ones from all the ones they throw at me during events.

They were going to be p2w until everyone complained, and now there's a free version of everything.

Considering that coolant flush was an ability that was just included as a basic gameplay element on every single 'Mech in every other Mechwarrior title until MWO came around...


...yeah, coolshots are stupid. Somewhere between the titles reactor coolant apparently became lostech.

I'm pretty sure it's just MW4 that has it.

Ironically, it was when it came out but the community was incensed so PGI adjusted the CB version to be equal and has been very careful about P2W since. You're three years late OP.

It was never released as P2W, it was only announced and PGI changed their tune immediately when they realized just how much people hated the idea.
