Does buying any $10 hero mech counts both as prime and clan/is reward?

Thanks.

Actually If you Play MW4 You already Saw Grand Summoner. The key Differents is the Foots and Grand Summoner (Thor II) has SYMMETRICAL ARMS, While Summoner (Thor)'s Arms Are Asymmetrical.
.
The Thor on MW4 is suppossed now Thor II or Grand Summoner

cool but, I dont know where in MWO forums anybody heard anything about the Grand summoner, sorry , that's what i actually meant. like somone just said "grand summoner!!" and I am like "where???"

I have purchased MC but I am showing as ineligible for the rewards. Is this a known issue?

[Aidan Crenshaw]

Not an issue. Eligibility refreshes every 24 hours on 0:00 UTC.

So buying the bloodname pack won't net me the Commando IIC?

What will? the wording of it all really confuses me.

[Akamia Terizen]

Any regular Clan chassis pack, or a Clan hero, purchased from the web store. Bloodname is a booster, not a chassis pack or a hero.

Buying the Bull Shark is an Inner Sphere pack, and nets you that reward, but if you get the Mako hero with the same pack, you get the Clan reward too, because the Mako is a Clan ’Mech.

dang, that woulda been a good excuse to get it. i have too many of the chassis for any of those to be worth it.

ah well, the commando will make its way to the store eventually, right?

I really wish i could just buy the supernova special, since i already have all the others.

Beware! The Spitfire, in spite of being a a "mech package" (as specifically called out and excluded by the other rewards tier) and by extension, thus a Longbow Mech Package, is instead sneakily a "Legendary Mech Package." Don't buy it if you want the longbow reward, customer service cannot help you!

They also sneakily edited the page several days after the rewards program launched, here is what it originally said.

I guess buying the equivalent of a mech pack or even more per year in Legendary Packs just isn't good enough for PGI now and throwing in a measly platinum variant is too much. I've bought 13 legend packs - and now I feel heavily disincentivized to buy any more if this confusing mess of technicalities and post-facto edits is what my money is worth.

Do the Resistance and Resistance II packs qualify for the IS Package Rewards?

[simon1812]

ECM is the strongest piece of equipment a mech can run in quick play(arguably second to MASC depending on priorities but it's still up there). The Nova Cat is already getting a serious glow up getting 8 extra ballistic in a single variant, we felt that the ECM was just overkill. We did the same thing with the Adder Warthog, which is based off of the ADR-S. That mech also had ECM, but it was too much so we decided to tone it down a notch.

The reason why the Argent, Spectre, and Apache got ECM was to help balance out their downsides. The NCT-P and ADR-W don't have downsides as severe so it doesn't feel needed.

Great explanation but on the note of the warthog being good please consider buffing the poor underquirked Tournament supporter cicada...poor thing has nothing and is less durable

It's interesting to note that a lot of the Dark Age upgrades were derived from the Mechwarrior 4 mechs. The reason being that when Wizkidz was working with Microsoft to make the Mechwarrior 4 games, they used those designs to add to there Clix Miniatures for their Dark Age game and expansions. Later on, the MWDA Miniatures would later be canonized into BT officially in the TROs as new designs or upgrades of past mechs. You can look here and see what each MW4 design ended up becoming in cannon.

Scaleshot or Howl, but that is just my two cents. I shy away from assaults and the Vapor Eagle Gorewing is a little slow as far as I am concerned.
Else, the Hashke and Abaddon pack could be interesting as you get two Mechs - if you like Urban Mechs, go for that package.

Edit: The MAD IIC Dreadnought looks nice, though.

I'm having a lot of fun with the Sovereign.

[smokefield]

is the redeem function broken? i am hitting the button, asks for confirmation, then the process restarts..and mechs is not redeemed..

[Duke Falcon]

HEY PGI!

There is some problem!
The Wolfhound clan version not has the clan camoes!
Clan Annihilator has clan camoes but Wolfhound not?
I want my Wolfhound wear CJF colours!

BTW
Why cannot apply any camoes on all mechs? Why cannot I paint my King crab to Jade Falcon colours?
Because there is (magic word comes!) salvage, any side could have and use any tech but cannot paint?!?
May that could be adressed in the next patch (or the november patch)?

Worked for me - I did not get I could choose them now. Got a second CTF-3L(L), the one I had felt lonely.
