What's a Loyalty program? What we have right here is an Annual Reward program. Apparently. At least this time.
Yet it does, because the omission of the word Loyalty changes how butthurt people should be getting.

Somehow I doubt calling it "Blake's tentacular petting zoo" would make it functionally any less of a loyalty program.

NEW URBIE!!


oh yeah...and other stuff.

But then, I would expect only animal named mechs to be the purchase require, or be the reward mechs...

ignore me...

[Ertur]

I suspected there'd be an Urbie in there, forcing me to get Urbies in my heretofore Urbie-free mechbay. So I picked up a couple of others, just to get ready. I've always enjoyed this program, the AH(L) CN9 is still a favorite of mine. Looking forward to getting these.
The first batch had a 'Norns' theme, is there a theme for the new ones?

True, but only calling them "Annual Rewards" and not "Loyalty Rewards" should prevent people from feeling entitled to them because reasons. Alas, this didn't work, so the butthurt is back again this year.

Anyone concerned about the page not showing your recent purchases qualifying you, please be aware that they've announced that it can take up to six hours for the pages to update properly.

[Kuaron]

OK, one more time concerning the question whether pack upgrades are considered a "tier" in the sense of loyalty qualification:

I used a support ticket after all, and unlike reading the forum they at least can answer fast enough to emails. ^^
Anyway, my assumption was wrong and only Standard and Collector's are "tiers".
Don't be misled by what I wrote earlier!

Aye, same as last year and as others have been saying to... other-others

Know you know!

so i guess you have to buy or upgrade to the 40$-pack, twice?

That or buy one of the older 4 'mech L/M/H/A packs (or the Clan Wave I 8 pack)

[Edit] Oh yeah! The standalone Heroes, too. [/Edit]

I was hoping they had improved it because the wording had changed since last year leading to the assumed interpretation.

The question was about the standard reward, Griffin/Kitfox. There you need "any tier" of a pack.

Uhh... The urbie is a reward for buying steam packs OR mc.

Dear @PGI!

I have a simple question: Can I have TWO ECM in my Kit Fox-G? Because, the Loadout page saz:
...
Kit Fox KFX-G

OVERVIEW ... Left Arm ... Fixed Armor Slot, Fixed Structure Slot, ECM Suite

OMNIPOD HARDPOINTS ... Left Arm ... 1 ECM (Available Actuators: Upper, Lower, Hand)
...


And there is of course the KFX-C's RIGHT ARM Omnipod with ECM... so... 2 ECM in 1 Mech?

[James Argent]

Dual ECM is not possible, regardless of hardpoint availability. You'll get the 'exceeds per mech limit' error like you get when you hover over a targeting computer with a different targeting computer already equipped.

[Koniving]

This will be interesting...
Imagine a Kitfox with two ECMs.

Or being able to actually use a different right arm to try something other than 3 AMS + ECM, without losing the ECM.

Seems a bit premature to know this.

Even for a....

Now what was I saying?

[Kalimaster]

I got the early award of the Bushwacker, and although the bushwacker package is mentioned to own the inner sphere award, my date of purchase for the early award has excluded me from this award. Not happy.

[James Argent]

Your purchase counted for last year's reward program.

[James Argent]

Koniving, check post #42 in the reward mech loadouts thread...Chris Lowery confirmed that it's only one ECM per mech regardless of hardpoint availability.
