I love this game and just came back to it after putting it down for a while. I want to make new friends starting at my skill level (think Kung Fu Panda there is now a lvl 0) but actually its level 5. lvl 0 is far above me lol. any way I spent 3 to 4 hundred dollars and ran out of stuff to buy so I figured if some noobs want some mech bays maybe I can help them out. Anyway if you see this and you are interested reach out to me on Discord or here. On Discord I am rhehaud180 and here I am RhehaudWunadee. There is more stuff I could buy I guess, but I can only field one mech at a time and I would rather help a few people get their collection started then add too much more to my collection at the moment.


Edited. For the following: some people may be unable to post. I was able to help someone who liked this post, so if you can't post but are new reach out on Discord and like this post.

2nd Edit: Temporarily out of funds there were some more MW5 DLCS I didn't know about until recently and I have been able to help 2 people here. Will see if I can help more but a name like CritMeDaddy makes me think someone just started an alt to get some more MC on a more established account, but who knows? I gave them the benefit of the doubt.

I don't know why someone wouldn't be able to post, besides not having played enough matches yet in the game. (It's a feature to prevent spam accounts, as at one point the forums were being spammed with new accounts that would throw ad posts everywhere...)

And, to be honest, if someone can't post because their account is too new, I don't think it would be wise to toss money into said accounts, even as a gift. (Unless you personally know the person.) I mean, it's your money. I'm not going to say you can't do something with it...

That seems pretty rad of you, Rhehaud! Though being limited in when and how much you can help new players -- or reconsidering doing so -- is also entirely understandable.

I made an account for MWO ages ago, but never really got into it. IIRC I played all of one match before uninstalling? Or maybe that was around when my old computer kicked the bucket, I have trouble recalling a lot of not-seriously-life-stuff from between the Great Recession and the Pandemic.
However, MW5Mercs came onto my radar on XBox last year, and that's renewed my interest in MWO, so I'm back to poke around again, and see if my experience playing MW5 might help make MWO more enjoyable. Although I'll admit that experience primarily being from console gaming has me wondering if it will translate -- it doesn't seem like either of the MW5 gamepad control schemes are particularly available on MWO, and I don't know if it's feasible to try and set them up in a similar way through setting up custom gamepad controls in Settings.

But it does seem like only having the trial mechs is going to significantly limit me, so... if you're offering to help, this is me raising my hand?
