Here is a sneak peek on CW phase 3, you can use mechs that you salvaged on the battlefield. In the following pictures you can see Inner Sphere mechs side by side with Clan mechs in a faction match:

Can't wait to use a Hellbringer in a match IS vs IS.

I have suspicions about this... That could be a private match, I believe. Can't you run CW styled matches as a private match now?

Anyway, if you can, that would be kinda cool. Wont deny that.

You can't run private matches on this yet.. Would like to see that added in Phase 3

There was a bug some months ago that allowed some members of your team to use the wrong mechs when changing factions.

I guess I'm the only BT player who found the whole salvage thing silly. :(

BSK, please confess... You're trolling us, aren't you? Where's the video proof? Were you on the PTS? :(

This isn't hard to do with MS Paint. Salvaging mechs equals less income for PGI. They would come with their own mech bay I presume... :) Therefore, while it's a clever Photoshop, don't expect it.

They aren't shopped.

If you join a game and your contract changes while you are queued up, when you go to edit your drop deck you have the new factions mechs to choose from but are still playing for the old faction, so you can have Clan mechs on the IS side and vice versa.

It is really fun. People are like WTF???

Sounds to me like a massive bug that PGI needs to patch immediately. PGI's simple Drop Deck System shouldn't be exploitable like that. :angry:
