Definitely the Osiris, the Egyptian god of the afterlife & Thanatos, Greek hand of death.
Spiders are quite Halloween. I guess Ravens are, too.
Wolfhounds for the werewolf tie-in? Same for the Arctic Wolf & Timber Wolf.

Then more costume related;

Uziel the angel.
Zeus, Greek god of the sky.
IS names for some Clan 'mechs - Uller (Kit Fox), Norse god of glory, Thor (Summoner), Norse god of Thunder.
Viper Hero Medusa, the Greek Gorgon.
Locust Hero Pirate's Bane, because Pirates.
Huntsman Hero Sekhmet, Egyptian goddess of war.

...

Yeah, I should stop, there are too many

good points, but no one will buy and/or play spiders that does not have them allready, not after all the nerfs they suffered.

So, silly question - with the reward tiers that have a mech and a mechbay, does that mech occupy said mechbay meaning that you're really "just" getting the mech instead of an extra mechbay as well?

yes, the mech occupies the mech bay you get, in case you have all mechbays full allready.

if not for this extra mechbay, i would not have got the one special free centurion a few years back, because i had all full at the time. you cant sell those reward/special mechs tho and have to write to PGI to do that for you.

The Mauler looks incredibly dumb.

Like every Mauler with lrms in it.

It makes me laugh (and yet be annoyed), how you two just assume LRMs, of all the insane possibilities... What if those actually happen to be MRMs of a 20-Size or Larger?!?!?

The Mauler is Brak from Space Ghost.

I didn't think of that one until you mentioned it. But yeah, it does look like that character, doesn't it?

EXCUSE ME?!?!? I'm still thinking of purchasing one to use, given that Mech's potential capability! At least I don't have to fight with "Rule Of Three" now.

Sucks that I cannot buy the same performance pack again

It is really hard to get a FP IS vs IS. Not sure if you are able to read population statistics, but I am sure what ever you have there, it is not enough to keep up with match making. I am reading another post where players are so happy about your idea PGI, and sound like there will be riots soon. Well PGI,then make RIOTS!! Whole IS against whole IS! Whole Clam against whole Clan! Hell, if this needs to be riots, EVERYONE against EVERYONE! Mixed drops Clan and IS. Not fair? Who cares, just give us chance to play!! If you are not sure about that idea. Put it on test server and you will see live server population will drop to 0.

BS, I played from UTC 17:17 till 21:47 and only had 2 periods where I had to wait about 3min to get a match.

I thought about that, then checked the stock loadout and am pretty sure the knockout is stock.

And you were right in another post, not entirely the sale I hoped for.

[Slincer]

Having thought more about this since my post this morning I have realised that the majority of the event (the grand prize for loot bags and the steam sale) is really not worthwhile for those that have already bought steam packs and so for those that have already taken advantage of the deals in the past there is practically nothing on offer here.

Depends how you define practically. And nothing.

[Slincer]

Practically nothing = lootbags

What I am trying to say is that each year is the same.

Does these hero mechs count towards the Loyalty mechs?

You should ask support about it, tho it will be Saturday/Sunday...

I doubt they count. I checked my store page and the mech I've obtained from MC is not counted as 'owned'.

[Magik Jack]

That moment you realize you messed up the timezones and got a myst lynx instead of the wolfhound...

Would be great to see a hero/mech sale to get rid of all this mc laying around : P

No, only 'mechs from the web store count towards the Reward 'mechs (aside from Steam Performance Bundles counting for the Urbanmech).

[ChaosAptom]

How fast do you get the mech? I bought a MC pack today and got no mech yet

[Buenaventura]

According to the announcement, you should get it by the hour. So, if you bought at 13:31, you should get the additional stuff by 14:00.

[Zarock]

"Keep an eye on in-game sales all week as we add more content! "

Does that mean there will be mechs or even better Hero mechs on sale? Would be cool to know wether that is possible or not

Edited by Zarock, 29 October 2017 - 06:19 AM.

[Kuaron]

Mechs and decals would be nice.
With which frequency can we expect updates?

[Buenaventura]

Would be nice if there were a place where such sales are shown, without having to click through things that might be interesting if they are on sale. For me, that is mech bays and supply cache keys.
