So, bolt ons are great. Especially with the update so that they dont fall off.

But heres the thing.....they are SO....******.....EXPENSIVE.
This is a game where you collect mechs. You put cool builds on them and play them. Many of us have hundreds of mechs.
With current bolt on prices, I could spend over 2000$ and still not have all of my mechs outfitted with bolt ons.

But hey, maybe I'm an edge case. Say your average person buys 30 mechs over the duration of them playing.
On an an average of 2000mc/mech to deck it out....thatd still be 200$ US. With a MC sale. That's nuts.

This isnt like league of legends where you've got maybe 10 champs you play.
Or warframe, where the customization options can be equipped on every warframe. That game only has something like 30 frames? I can buy a full set of "bolt on" equivalents that are equippable across every single one for what? 20-30$?

Bolt ons cost too much. You want people to buy MC at a consistant rate? Lower the prices enough on bolt ons that people will start buying MC here and there on impulse. You'll make more money and have happier consumers.
