Just sayin' PGI. You guys would make bank if you allowed players to pay to drop tiers. $10 per Tier seems reasonable.

People wanting to play in T5 can pay to experience fun drawn out 15m matches and T1 top 5% Jarls players will pay to have fun farming.

Most money to be made here is the T1 players who'd have to keep paying weekly to stay in T5.

There's possibly a market in the opposite direction too, players who believe they should be in T1 would pay to go up in tier but then after a disastrous loss streak would pay to drop back down, double dip FTW.

TBH I'm surprised this hasn't happened already.

I'll accept a Bane Ultimate pack as payment for this amazing pot of gold.

No worries and cheers from Oz.

P.S. BTW good work with Mech Clans, was a fun game, but get rid of the Kerenskies, that cash is worthless in a story driven linear campaign and give players the ability to save builds to load between mechs.

Yeah sorry, I don't want a bunch of T1 players coming down to T5 just so they can seal club us to death and yell "git gud" "I pwnd ju noob" etc...

Just roll an alternate account if it means that much to you.

I'm content at bouncing between T5 and T4 tyvm! I wouldn't pay to go up to T1 just to get trounced in 5 seconds.

This has got to be a joke. Then again...as honest as Russ has been about this game and us marks that pay for it being nothing more than a means to pay for MW5, I guess it is a little surprising that they haven't tried something this pathetic as a last ditch cash grab.

Last time I tried to drop tier ethically, I ran a cap spider with a Large Pulse Laser, turns out it did really good.

if you want to farm barely functional opponents you might as well just go play mw5. its cheaper than the bane pack. which i was going to buy, but this game has been jumping the shark so much lately, im not sure i want to put any more money into it. or clans for that matter.

i came here to ridicule op's idea, but honestly i dont even care anymore. t1s pay to be t5 and everyone lower than t2 will be leaving and taking their mechpack money with them, then no-one to buy op a mech pack for his excellent idea. no one paying and no one playing = no game. perhaps thats a good thing. but i expect it to take at least 2 years to dev post clans pvp mechwarrior product, and id rather mwo be quasi-playable until then.

Wouldn't help. I'm in Tier 4 and game is still unplayable. Even if I would be in Tier 5 - all Tier 1s would be there too, cuz matchmaker is non-existent.

Play crappy meme builds and you will drop tiers fast.

Stoney, you can save builds in MW5: Clans, it's just hidden in the omnipod set tab.
