Great stuff! Catalyst usually works in cash, although we should have more details after PAX Prime/West.

I will fire the question up the chain and find out!

They're going to sell merchandise? are they allowed?
Last year they gave away some 3d-printed & painted models (a golden boy - Firebrand - Heavy metal - IV Four - Flame and X5)
I got one of the lucky draws an got a GTX980.

But selling stuff?

Yes it says there is a merchandise table. Obviously I doubt it will be MWO stuff since they can't sell their own merchandise.

I wouldn't go to it, if the thing was held in my house.

Well for those who have never been to a PGI sponsored party:

There will be lots of alcohol. There will also be much finger food. Russ will make some sort of speech. And there will be a large group of investors and socially awkward people.

If Randall Bills is there, it's okay to say hi (I saw a lot of people too afraid to talk to him, lol). But try to talk to him about something other than Battletech because he's heard it all before.

Protip: don't play MWO while you're there. You're there to talk to people.

Look I'm not happy with the current state of affairs either. I'm going to go because one I've never been to Vancouver. Two I'll get to meet fellow mechwarriors get some signatures and some BATTLETECH merchandise.

At the same time I'll be looking and listening to what PGI has to reveal for MWO and if I don't like it I can finally say I gave them many many chances and the game is just not for me. Cut my losses and move on. There are many things in MWO I do like. The art team is wonderful and sadly the only thing I can praise anymore. I'm looking for two things new engine or upgrade announcement and PVE (standalone with p2p coop). Added bonus would be they announce my well known "mental issue" the Mad Cat MK II it would make for a good self birthday gift since my birthday is in December, but it's eventually going to be released anyway and won't address my long standing concerns.

So if you can go you should go PGI isn't the only thing there.

If I was gonna book a trip there, Mechcon would be the last place you would find me. LOL. There is something in the air there in that town.... I would like to embrace it, maybe even eat some brownies.

Cost to much and lost trust in PGI, while I still like playing the game every so often PGI just has not done enough with the title during the time they have had it for me to justify the cost.

First off, that sucks and I feel for you mech bro.

Now some funnys that might cheer you up. You should check out the nudity laws and go from there? Also while on a vacation instead of buying others a shirt you can buy yourself a shirt.

[TKSax]

No I will not be going, all though I would love to meet the Curator of Battletech (Randell Bills) The creator of Battletech (Jordan) The creator of MechCommader and Head of the Battletech Game (Mitch) and The artist of Battletech/Mechwarrior (Alex).

The Clown Prince of MWO (Russ) Will keep me from spending money for Mechcon/MWO.

I can just drive to gencon and see the ones I want to meet anyway.

he's mad. because he repeats the same thing over and over again, as if we did not hear him the first time.

Anyways I will catch it on twitch. Have fun for anybody that's going.

Mautty does repeat the same thing continually...if he is mad about his repetitiveness...maybe he should stop? Get help? Seek therapy?

Whatever...
