Every single time there's a loot bag event, I end up explaining to people that Mech X or Y had their free 25 bonus redemptions during the previous loot bag event. Glad some folks beat me to the punch this time Posted Image

Strangely enough, after the Classic heavy mechs and the Kodiak, I haven't bought anything in a few months so I get no freebies. First time that's happened in a while!



...Its not too late... ;)

How is the chance for the grand price at all?

Made my 25 Cyclops clicks but nothing special there besides an Urbie warhorn (which doesn't even sound good, IMO).


I bet you will get the grand prize, soon. I think its less rare to get the grand prize than what many thinks.
Got my grand prize at the 25 of combined 100 pre order ones. Now... I might try to use that 400 xl engine on my spare experimental Banshee for fun Posted Image

we should up the score on the quick play from 150 to 250. It made a lot of ppl do less hiding and more aggression

I doubt it...

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drop lurms and stop begging for targets.

Good one Posted Image

I guess the three of you haven't had the chance to be accompanied by a good LRM support. I'll have to hope I get to team up with you while I'm using my insane LRM loadouts then. And no, they're not pure LRM, because I'm not stupid enough to forget backup weapons. ;)

Search the forums for the thread called; "never bring lrms to fp"...

17 pages on the subject showing diverse opinions and personalities... and some laughably bad reasoning...

Yeah, I decided to ignore that thread. Didn't see any point in wasting my intelligence on reading it, because it would only take away from the brains I use to help properly with LRMs. ;)

Anyone know of a reason that I am showing no rewards whatsoever even with one of the pre-order packs?

Why only 15 bags for scout mode? An invasion match take 4 the time.

Because you can get the invasion one pretty easily, as long you get a match and try to engage the enemy.

Scouting you will have to basically choose between trying to win and trying to qualify for a grab bag on every single "gather intel" drop since for most solo droppers, those goals are nearly mutually exclusive.

This is what i just got, simply for logging in and owning a cyclops pack.

Thats it, i havent even played a match yet.

And people are actually complaining???? What can you complain about with a straight face unless you are one of the most over entitled feeling people on Earth.

So you dont want a mechbay? No one cares. new players might like one.

Radar dep? Its worth 3 million cbills if not, and is also a very good module that would cost 6 mil normally to those that do.

XL400 engine? Most expensive engine, and brilliant if you own the assaults that can use it. If not, it still sells for over 3 mil.

People saying mechbay is a grand prize, when it clearly isn't? Please learn to read.

On top of these 3 rewards you can also win a hell of a lot of MC worth of stuff, there really is nothing at all to complain about whatsoever.

On a separate note, anyone want to buy a cup of pop or two? Posted Image

People are not complaining about getting stuff, they are complaining that its not being delivered on silver platter by a car show bikini model along with 10 taco bell chalupas...


They are not contractually obligated to give pack purchasers 100 bonus bags, they are not contractually obligated to give us 150 free ones, open to everyone.

They feel that by doing so acts as a good promotion for encouraging sales.

Its free stuff, but its for business reasons. Accept it.
