Just a reminder: if you get a bonus MC package now, you'll probably qualify for a loyalty mech next year. The MC package mechs have usually been pretty good to sometimes awesome. The fun missile Urbie and the CN9-AH, in my opinion, have been stand-out additions to my mech hangar. If you're on the fence, add in a light or medium semi-hero in a year to the calculation.

Full unlock camos are worth 10 one shots, so if you have 5 mechs of one chassis, why don´t you just buy 5 one shots?

One shots don't come with a full unlock for return applications. Its the freedom of switching camo at will and being able to go back to an older favorite. Premium one shots are 150, common at 75. That will add up if the person loves to change camo like they do underwear. If a person likes to stick to a single look for a long period like I do, then the one shots pay off. Most of my mechs have been painted with the same pattern for years.

True! Would be nice to know if it counts... what was the starting date to qualify for last loyalty offers?

Yes, it would qualify for the MC Reward for the MWO Annual Rewards Progam 2018.
And so would any of the Packages Purchased on CyberMonday.

Close Matt, but do we get a remastered copy of MechWarrior II included?

Why not both All of them?

Curious, I don't remember seeing ever MC and mechbays being on sale at the same time during my roughly two years of playing.

Anyway previously two months I brought some MC because when the heroes were last on sale about in summer, I got an itch for a Scorch, and now I brought it. Another thing I don't remember if heroes and MC have been on sale at same time.

Because of lots of free MC we've received events in last few months, I could buy another large hero, but I don't really know what else I want. I think I will get Pirate Bane though, I have played with 4 Locusts, I suck with all of them, so maybe PB would be different. At least it should play different.

I got 84 mechs so I haven't really wanted more mechs as I mainly play with about 20 or so. I got so many mechs I have no use and I don't really play them at all, even though they are fully configured and mastered.

Can anyone tell me the answer to the most important question?

When will the hero omnipods be available for cbills for the clan hero mechs on sale ? (particulary the huntsman paket and the kitfox purifier hero's) thanks !

And also, a less important clarification to some confusion, people complaining about the new bagpipes warhorn being available now ????? where ???

Sadly, Hero omnipods are unique to the Hero. It gives motivation to actually get it, since Heroes are supposed to be unique. However I would love to see them be available for MC. That way if you get the Hero you get a 30% C-Bills bonus, and the unique CT.

Matt,

Any chance that the old Clan Invasion packs will go on sale? I want one of the Invasion special Mechs but I would have to pay either $90 and get a bunch of Mechs that I do not want or $55 and get two more variants that I do not want. The prices on those packs are so outdated when you consider that it now cost $40 for a Collectors pack that gives you more.

Also the Mech packs that go on sale tend to be the Mastery packs which are all IS Mechs.

Pls add Unlock Camos to the sale.

While I can kind of like the thought, don't expect it to happen. The fact that it permanently unlocks a pattern for a whole chassis makes it a steep deal for PGI to allow a Sale on those.

Hmm... that's a known bug... Just leave the In-Game Store section and come back. Doing so should fix it.

As for me... still looking at the Sale Rack... I don't think well when I'm burned out, though.

I think the bag pipe is totally bad ***! It is so awesome, I spent an hour listening to "Scotland of the brave" on YouTube and looking up the history of the kilt. Now fear the players with the bag pipes in MWO when they make battle formations marching over towards you in fear for battle!

If I were to get killed and that thing played, I would be like as if I was being trolled... it's a meat/poison thing I know, somehow that sound just doesn't work with my ears.

Not just that, but 30% bonus plus an added 2nd bonus of cbills and that darned bags of doom. The MC will also come in handy for a likely premium time sale come Cyber Monday. Or just buy the PT (and mechs) outright based on that 30% discount!

"exclusiveness". For one week? I hardly even had time to play last week, so do spare me the hyperbole.

I agree with your point about not getting too attached to these transient digital items, but my point still stands that they just slapped people who bought into the ultimate tier in the face. Especially after PGI spent months hyping those rewards and the tiers (and $$$) necessary to get them.

Agreed...it's not as if the horn was something they added to the mech they offered as the Ultimate Tier Reward. That would be a petty complaint. However, it pretty much was the ENTIRE Ultimate Tier Reward, and as such, anyone who qualified for it is entirely justified in complaining about it being exclusive for such a short, basically nonexistent timeframe.

This is a very bad move which I can only assume will be remembered when next year's Annual Rewards Program rolls around.

[Buenaventura]

Bought The Arrow and some more mech bays.
Since I don't really need bonus champion mechs are of no use for me. Any recommendations for other hero mechs?

[Kosapt]

So Javelin's shield warhorn is not on sale, despite all other warhorn which came out with single mech are on sale. Bummer for me since I could use few more of them. Any reason why this one was left out?

[HaHaLRMsGoWoosh]

They should put mechpacks on sale cyber monday
