This is not very clear on the webpage and I don't have the game installed here so I cannot check: what is the deal with the new classic hero mechs like Tempest, it says I have to buy basic package if I want to get the hero. Now that these were released ingame for credits, is there an MC option for the heroes?

And I was looking to justify getting one of the packages to qualify for top tier customer reward but.. Collector versions suck, man. I just can't find anything worthy of throwing money at it but I really want to get both top tiers. Archers looked like something that could be cool, but then I remembered Tempest is not a Collector version and I'd have to dish out for the full package... You're ******* sharks, PGI. No deal.

So can I at least get this piece of junk for MC?

Don't think the Archer is available for MC's yet, it will be at some point. All the package mechs become available for MC's and cbills eventually, although I can't remember time scale. Something like 4 months or so, I'm sure somebody will correct me on this.

I can't believe that I'm going to say this but I think it's time to buy some MC again.

Ok now it got me thinking again, why does it seem better to buy the pack + hero trough store than MC... in MC cost full hero price is 25$.. Packs are 45$...

Know what, forget this heap of junk, will wait for it to go on 50% sale. I am not spending this much on it. Thank you for the answer.

5,250 MC for hero Archer.
29.95 to get 6,500 MC.
Or 15 to get Archer add-on if I already got three Archers. Huh.

Welp, I know how I will pick my Tempest up. Yep. (*Already has Archer pack*)

Yeah, if I had an Archer pack this would be a no brainer, but I have over 100 mil cbills just waiting to be spent.. I can't use this currency for anything even if I try it's getting me no closer or cheaper to the hero I want. And last I checked I had about 8.000 MC, now somehow it's just 3.000. I could almost swear they have to be leaking somewhere.

Or maybe I should stop with that monthly mech repainting thing...

For 3 000 MC you can get Cicada "X-5".

Both Phoenix Hawk Heroes ("Kuroi Kiri" and "Roc") will cost 3 375 MC.

It was just the Archer that I had my eye on, I know it's a bad mech but I like it for the particular Gundam look he's having, and Tempest would probably be the only variant I would be playing after mastering. Still not decided. I kind of want it just because I think it's cool.
