Whatever it is, it'll probably come with a side of
"Cash Grab"

Whoops. Looks like Cash Grab is the main course.

This is what they released specifically because there's a bunch of people who will happily buy them. We get exactly the game we are willing to pay for.

That can't possibly be true. Continuously buying mech packs is the only way to make PGI start changing things like mechs, weapons, and game modes. Every gold mech sold is an underpowered weapon buffed! Right. Right?

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight?

TBH I have no quams with the mechs. It's par for course and really about time we got those clan heroes.

Only 4 are interesting at all. At the end of the day they are just whale food.

One of those is for a KFX, which is a joke mech.

The SMN energy side torso is just a poor mans loyalty mech.

Yeah, i mean, im not mad for the fact that we are getting clan heroes, but when russ stated on the past that mech sales would ever be present and that they shouldnt be considered as part of content developement, you dont really spect new variants of a chasis when he tweets 'small in game CONTENT, not a new chasis'...

i was honestly specting a new weapon, small vehicles like small tanks for FW or, well... content, not a NEW VARIANTS of some old CHASIS

Hey, it costs money to remove the factions from faction warfare and you've got to pay people to go to meetings and discuss ways to look busy without adding any content that would draw people back.

We have the game we keep paying for. We are long past "founders pack/closed beta". We spend our money to say "good job, I'm happy with what you've provided so far, keep doing exactly what you've been doing". You can't say you're paying for the content they've promised because they have promised but not delivered that content for 4 years or more.

Your wallet is voting for what you've got right now. This game is exactly what we've paid them to provide.

You must be new here XD

Man, if this was early 2013, MAYBE I would have expectations of something juicy. But this is 2016 and a one line tweet from Russ isn't going to hype me.

Welcome to MWO.

This is exactly what I said in a different thread, but even some of my fellow bittervets disagreed with your premise.

Yeah, TBH im fairly new, only 7 months here, but i've been devouring forum threads, and i think i got so charged with all that negative energy of years of bugs and stupid mistakes being ignored by PGI (as stated on the threads)

start from page one. Look at all the posts saying "clan hero mechs!"

Ok? =p Why are so many of you now acting surprised or like no one wanted this?

Well back when I played I would have been excited. Now that I don't play. What is the point?

[LordNothing]

this is my prediction:

disappointment.
