PGI gets it wrong, yet again!

How many posts have there been about the other sales like this? Allow people to select 10 mechs over the four weight classes with an individual pricing structure; pretty sure this would attract purchases from old and new players alike.

Shame there are only a couple decent chassis on this list and even those have long since been out classed by newer mechs. No value at all in these "deals". It's just a way to grab cash from new players who have no clue what they are doing.

Sounds like you only run the meta... try-hard much?

Have you got no love for the fun builds, AC20 Ravens, Boomcadas, LRM100 Stalkers? Don't tell me you only measure your fun by the size of you K:D.

If only purchasing 5 was available for the last dropship deal. I would have actually bought 5 assaults off that list for $20!

I'm starting to think that Dropship Deals for Lights and upwards are going to be a new standard thing to see. It's not like there aren't enough mechs and variants to go with each month. I predict September will have a Clan Dropship deal, probably with 5 mechs like this one was.

Except it's more, MW5 was delayed til 2019. Per Russ - MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is being delayed until 2019 so we can deliver the best single-player experience to date. As everyone knows, this is the first single-player experience MechWarrior title released since 2002 and we are well aware of the responsibility and great opportunity we have in re-introducing MechWarrior to the world.

5 Light Mech for $10 = $2.00 per light mech
5 Medium Mech for $12.50 = $2.50 per medium mech
5 Heavy Mech for $15 = $3.00 per heavy mech
5 Assault Mech for $17.50 = $3.50 per assault mech


Instead of making the customer having to buy 5 mechs of each weight class.

Why not just sell 1 mech at a time.

Any
:
light mech for $2.00
medium mech for $2.50
heavy mech for $3.00
assault mech for $3.50

This is so lame. A Mastery pack with 30 days of PT is a better deal.

A much better offer would be one from each weight class.

Then a new or old player could get an instant drop deck.

You might as well start offering 20 of each weight for $10.00. You will make it back with mech bay sales.
