Oh I know, pretty sure I've done that with one of them already.

That is what I am doing moving forward. 3 Clan Mechs + bays + 6.5 mil + modules for $20... and sell the Mechs if I don't like them.

Now, if PGI was only interested in selling more Hellbringers, Timberwolves, Maulers, Ebons, black Knight's, shadow cats... hell, MadDogs are not even available in a pack AT ALL.

Seriously, 1 mad dog with no mechbay costs $20 each in MC ($15 on sale), but 3 Kodiaks with Mechbays cost $20 total when not on sale.

Why would they do that?

I wouldn't have any heartache if they started dropping the old packs to $25/35 al a carte pricing for the IS/Clans. Would bring it in line with 3 mechs + hero + bays current pricing structure.

Why different prices? 3 Kodak's sell for the same as 3 Archers.

You have to believe that there are at least a few people out there who would drop $20 for 3 standard variant Timberwolves or Stormcrows, or any of the assaults, those things are terrible to grind cbills for.

By this do you mean, keeping the power on in the office? Paying salaries of employees? Running a small business is tough enough without basing your financial life line on people paying real money for pixels.

I wonder if they still teach econ in schools.
That being said, I do think a la carte purchases for real money should all have a mech bay attached to them.

they do an as older products get the lower in value they become . an when it comes to digital items like an atlas at this point in time there is no dame reason why its still $15 for something that old an it not like they have to have a warehouse filled with boxes of atlas's sitting there the cost of copy that atlas to an uses account is so low in cost its not funny.
and 2nd if you set you price base to high people will not be spending the money needed to keep the lights on an doors open an the few people that do spend money an feel like they got burned after will not come back to spend more money.


and to be honest im amazed MWO is still up but then again i see that many of problems still have bandade fixes, lack of maps, but lots and lots of mech packs to the point now there parting them out in one mech chassis.

and to be clear with you the only reason i play MWO is because im a battletech fan an for the past 4 years i have had no faith in IGP, or PGI but thankfully IGP tanked
