Gotta remember for the next time that in Matt's book "Early in the month" actually means third week.

Wasn't that about the c-bill discount for mechs? (Which we still haven't heard from btw...) Posted Image

I guess leaderboards are gone for good.
What a shame.

in Matt's defense, PGI had MechCon prep to worry about.

what isn't defensible of him is moving the goalposts a day after the Battle of Tharkad was over. even if it was a screwup on his part, you don't try to "correct" your mistake by changing the rules that were in place during the event. You apologize, accept the result as it stood, and take special care to not screw up again the next time. doing what he did got a lot of IS MechWarriors feeling there was some blatant Clan favoritism involved, even if it was unintentional.

Can you clarify the "Hellspawn Pack Early Adopter" reward for the Paralyzer?

If we already have the Early Adopter rewards with Pattern, Colors and Decals; how can you earn those again?

The online page says that the Paraylzer reward is "Early Adopter", but in game, it only offers the Demon Girl. Which one is it? I'd be dissapointed if I bought the hero just for the cockpit item.

Based on how that challenge is currently worded on the website I could have thought the full early adopter package was the reward for the hero objective ("Hellspawn Pack Early Adopter").

If the reward is just the single standing cockpit item (as it shows in the game event browser) and you did buy the hero mech based only on the website's challenge wording, I would suggest asking for a refund.

I have to say that is a "too good to be true" challenge reward and expect that PGI made a mistake with the website's description.

So I guess if you pre-ordered this one and bought the hero there is no need to do that challenge...great for folks who didnt pre-order sadface for those who did

We'd all be disappointed if anyone bought a Hero Mech just for the cockpit item...

Any news on the hero challenge? Do we get the early adopters reward? I was late to get it, so I didn't buy it, but I'd do it if there is a chance of getting the rewards with the hero mech.

I am sure we only get the cockpit item, which was part of the early adopters package. Descriptions on the website for the challanges are very wonky for quite some time now.
