Still better than the old mech packs where if you didn't want the light mech you still had to get it in the pack. Sure you could do the ala cart but go check it out still more expensive $55 for the old ones and $35 for the newer ones. as long as you buy more than 1 you get a better deal but still spend more if you don't just buy all of them. and if you want just the light mech it was still $35 for old pack $20 for the newer ones. Plus you didn't get the early adopter rewards or faction content. If I remember right.
So I like the new mech packs they give us of one mech. At least we wait 3 to 4 months for the new mechs not 6 to 7 months.
I agree, the old pack style was definitely worse.
However, my issue is that i only ever elite 3 mechs of each chassis, so in the instances where i have more than 3 in a set one or more always goes completely unused, usually the special version i can't sell for cbills lol.
Anyhow the last few packs, most notably the Bushwhacker to me, had base packages with very similar hard points, but the extra variants really spiced things up.
So what will happen is I would buy the base package due to my being a cheap ***, then i'd elite the 3 of them and never ever purchase the ones i really wanted to play since i'd already have 3 bushwhackers elited. So, its just better to wait a few months then i can use some of my presently 84 million cbills to get the ones i really desire.
If they let me pick the 3 variants i wanted instead of having to take certain ones i'd have been an instant buyer. It's similar to the old package issue but on a smaller scale. Not only is it more expensive but I also have no use for 5 variants of any mech.
