On the other hand, in stead of the Hellbringer F, I would have love to have the Mad Cat B. As it stands, I'm happy in either case. :-]

You know, I would say "We founders got what we paid for, stop asking for free stuff." But the possibility for getting free stuff would be nice.
Not gonna lie.

It's nice to appreciate the customers who didn't pre-order the packs over the ones who did, good job for nothing
would be great to own thes mechs I only have to re-purchase every pack, not
this is like another gold mech scam
purchase windows are stupid, more loyalty mechs i don't get because PGI wants to punish preorder people

This trend of reward program started in 2014 to promoted the sales of clan wave II.

They have been using this flawed model ever since... There is no thinking behind this.... It is just because its been like this since the beginning.. that is their reason!!!!

Question: If i upgrade to the Top Origins Pack(im half there already) do i get both Summoners(F and M)? Little confused on the criteria. Thanks!

Correct! The Top-Tier Clan Reward features both Summoner variants.

Hey Alex, does buying the steam package count towards the BJ-2 Black Jack for the customer appreciation? My friend asked this due to the 2000 MC it gives being injected into his account and recorded on the purchase history. He isn't quite keen on buying more things on the game right now and is bummed out that the steam packages do nothing for the package mechs despite the cost.

We've adjusted the original post to reflect that owning any Steam Performance Bundle will qualify you for the MechWarrior Credits Bundle.

Question: On our "Credits" page what TZ is the time stamp? I last purchased MC on October 6th at 7:46AM. I'm trying to figure out if it qualifies me or not. (I'm currently assuming not...but it would be nice to definitively know)

The timestamps on your Credits page are UTC. That purchase does qualify.

Nice! Free stuff again Posted Image A couple of questions, though, since I'm kinda new to this: 1) Can loyalty mech variants be sold to free up the mechbay? I seem to be eligible for the Blackjack, but have no use for it, since I'm playing the clan side. And I've seen some old posts on the forums saying that loyalty mechs cannot be sold. Is this true? 2) For loyalty clan omnimechs, can you swap omnipods around, or are they "hardwired"? In other words, can you put ECM on that loyalty Hellbringer?

Loyalty Variants cannot be sold, but if you wish to free up the MechBay for use you can get in touch with Support to have us remove the 'Mech and leave the MechBay. However we do not provide C-Bill or MC exchanges for the 'Mech removal; we simply leave you with the MechBay.

Loyalty OmniMechs have full OmniMech functionality, but the Loyalty variant OmniPods themselves won't become available for direct purchase in-game until the standard versions of these 'Mechs are released for direct purchase in-game. Until then you'll need to remove them from the Loyalty Variants if you want to place them onto another variant.

I'm just wondering if this is a typo? Rewards Summoner SMN-F and Summoner SMN-M Loyalty variants (both featuring the unique Loyalty Pattern and 30% C-Bill Boost) +1 MechBay. Only 1 MechBay for two mechs? What happens if we don't ahve any empty MechBays? If this has already been addressed, my apologies. I'm pretty stoked about this. I'm pretty sure I qualify for all the rewards Posted Image

Typo, fixed. Not sure they'd like being crammed into a single MechBay.

Can you get multiple mechs if you eligible more than once ?

You can only qualify for each Reward once.

Hello! A question to PGI staff: ill be travelling in october and ill be far away to any computer. Need i login, fill any thing or choose in the web to receive the customer rewards? TY in advantage

No action necessary! If you qualify the Reward(s) will be injected automatically on the listed date.

I noticed some Geometry differences between the preview picture of the Cataphract and the current in-game model.
Is that some sneak peek at a possible geometry update (because the one in the preview does look better, without the empty hardpoint on LA and RA without a square laser peg slapped onto it) or is it something else?

So if someone upgrades his Origins pack that was purchased BEFORE Oct 6th 2015, he qualifies for the top tier reward?

Is there going to be a link to check what we qualify for? The 2015 date I understand but going through MC transactions to try and trying to figure when the purchase was made (usually bought MC after packs, and let alone CC charges to sift through) -help a brother out.

Spending more than the qualifying cost for the mega reward and not getting it gg ). You should have used the "Power Draw" system, if you spent more than $$ you qualify. Just sayin not complaining.

edit: OK nvm. Just saw your last 2 lines in last post. Made it to page 6 before posting tho ;)

Yes, if you upgrade to Top-Tier within the eligibility period you will qualify.

So the expensive Steam packs count as a 7$ handful of gold. Posted Image
Well, at least we have an answer. Not that it could make many people happy.

What about Hero and Reinforcement expansions? Several people here on the forum and Kanajashi on Youtube suggested they should optionally replace the Collectors editions of the packs. Any decision on this?

The "check your eligibility status for each of these Rewards through this section of your Profile!" button isnt working for me, it leads me to the news. Is there another way I could check my progress?

I'm sure somebody in the art department spent a lot of time on that camo (thank you), and doubtless there are people who will love it.

I'm not one of them. Will we be able to turn off the eye-tearing loyalty LSD pattern, or perhaps put Faction patterns on our 'mechs?

Otherwise I'm gonna need some aspirin to go with my rewards 'mechs.

I've adjusted the text regarding Pattern support to be a bit more accurate.

The unique Loyalty Pattern on these 'Mechs can be replaced with Standard and Faction-based Patterns, if the 'Mech chassis currently supports them. For example, the Cataphract chassis currently only supports Standard Patterns.

To check what you're eligible for, click on Profile, then Content in the forums. It will show a green checkmark next to the ones you're receiving.

Is the Inner Sphere reward ok if i buy a urbanmech with mc (i know with cbills it doesn't works) or only if i buy the pack ?

It needs to be a Pack purchase. In-game purchases with MC (or C-Bills) are not eligible.
