pg 98 I think? You have to go to a website...one that isn't working yet to get the code, then another to use it...which might also not be up/working yet. Content delivery isn't till the 16th if I remember right. They are working out the issues though.
Thanks! I got it through my kindle app on my cell phone. It would take forever to swipe through the entire magazine on that tiny screen!
Edit: Found it! one of the 5 articles in the "Hard Stuff" section.

That's up to PC Gamer
Uhh... I wasn't aware the PC Gamer is distributed in germany... so how is it up to them?
And the google apps thing "is not available in [my] country yet"
*even more sad german*

Any ideas why?
I have checked all 4 founders mechs to make sure I haven't accidentally applied it without my own knowledge...

It cannot be applied to Founders or Hero Mechs.
Nor can it be applied to any Mech that wasn't one of the original eight.

But strangely, I can't apply it on my Ravens. It seems once it is
used on a mech chassis we can only use it for that mech type,
which is very unfortunate. Unless I made a mistake.
...did the Raven belong to the original eigth mech chassis?

It did not. The PC Gamer skin can only be applied to the Jenner, Commando, Hunchback, Centurion, Dragon, Catapult, Atlas, and Awesome.
And before anyone decries minuz for the necro, at least he used the search function and found a thread that was related to his question.

True about the actual skin being limited to those Mechs, but the three colors from the skin can be applied to any Mech. Good work on the search, better than clogging up the forum with another thread!

-You get a coconut monkey (ONLY ONE) that can me moved from mech to mech at will, you only get one but you can move it freely.
-You get a pattern "PC Gamer Skin" or somesuch under a tab called "special" on the mech camo pattern select screen. This pattern may ONLY be applied (although it's applications are unlimited within the limitations) to the first 8 mechs released. This means Atlas, Awesome, Catapult, Dragon, Hunchback, Centurion, Jenner, Commando. NO OTHER MECH MAY USE THIS SKIN, PERIOD.
-The skin may be applied, taken off, re-applied, whatever. You can apply it to multiple mechs at once, you could have EVERY VARIANT of the 8 mechs I listed above camo'd, or not camo'd, at your leisure.
ED: As to why someone might be "stupid" enough to buy a PC Gamer magazine, well the only reason this promotion exists is because I was dumb enough to support a publication I loved. I, and those like me, gave PC Gamer enough money to get a publicity deal with IGP. If you can't afford to contribute then I don't care and I hope you get your skin for free... But if you are some jerk who thinks things like this will happen whether they pay or not? well I hope you have a lot of minor but bad things happen to you. I hope your spark plugs wear out a year early because "who cares, they'll keep making 'em". I hope your electrical appliances are shortlived. I hope the caulk in your bathroom was applied loosely.
Everything that is excellent because of the small details depends on talented people keeping up the quality. I don't care if your talent is landscaping, money is talent incarnate, money makes it all possible. Put your money behind stuff like PC Gamer and you'll get awesome skins in future games.
Decide, arrogantly, that it doesn't matter and watch cool promotions fly away like so many blossoms on the breeze.

A: "cheat" the system and get it for free.
B. Buy a extra magazine form the US
C: be lucky enough to live in a region that could buy the US issue digitally This would save on shipping but still force them to buy a extra copy of the magazine.
So for many it was not an option.

Well, this post seems like an answer to mine. On eBay, you're not buying the Magazin or something like that. You're able to buy some scamed promotion-codes, lol.

Re-installing the game didn't help.
Should i wait for next maintenance or server restart? Or this promotion is not working anymore?
