Quite true, I didn't deny that. I was just pointing out there's more to it than simply lights being a little weak ATM. Although I do think the way they've priced mechs by tonnage is a bigger contributor to the issue.
Perhaps. Personally, I'm more than willing to pay $20+ for the right Light. I don't really base my purchases off of whether I think a 'Mech will be uber or not, but rather if I think it looks cool or interesting. I paid $30 for the Mist Lynx and it has been one of the most-used $30 I've spent on this game.
I'm fairly certain I'm not alone in how I make my 'Mech purchase decisions. If PGI released something that tickles both the performance and the cool-factor fancies, like the Locust IIC, I would wager it sells quite well.
