Yea, I would rather pay more to keep it too.

I'm sorry... have you not played the game?
Premium status and founder mechs. They, by default, allow you to get more cbills. Theirs literally no argument against that which isn't a flat out lie.

Well see, it might be news to you but Founders get Premium Time, which adds to their income, and Founder's Mechs, which get them 25% bonus Cbills. So...you just tossed $120 at PGI with no idea what you were buying?

1. You both make the foolish assumption that I ever used the Founder mechs (which I did not and never will).
2. You both make the foolish assumption that I will continue to use my premium time now that I have to manually activate it (which I will not until the game is complete so I am on the same playing field as you peasants).
3. I never lied about being "poor", I was simply telling the OP that commentary on the pricing of items rarely meets with sympathetic ears. People don't seem to mind spending around three victories worth of Cbills on a single color.

I kinda like what you show here... makes it look worn and used.

Clean sharp unmarred paint jobs should not exist, for the most part.

[El Penguin]

I guess I can see that but shouldn't it be related to the color? It's always that olive green. Also the first and second picture I attempted to paint it all black (Third was to paint it all red). As you can see it looks like it just has spots of black.

EDIT: Also it means we can't replicate the old red atlas we had for example. It will be showing too much green around certain areas.

Hmmmm... a little more worn through that it should be.
Yea, it should be a little more solid for the black there.

Hey Grraarrgghh Im here to post my opinion not to be told dont buy something I want in game for a cheaper price thx ... if your opinion is to just dismiss my statement dont comment

You posted your opinion. He responded with his opinion. Then you dismissed his opinion because it was dismissive of your opinion. I feel like there is a certain degree of irony to be found here.

Ok, so you make bad decisions and then complain about it.

[Snuggie]

Can there be a 'Per Mech' option and a 'Per Account' option?

So we can unlock say one color or pattern per mech for $1, and then unlock for all mechs for like $5?

That would give everyone more incentive to pay for more Mechbays and buy more mechs, example, to take advantage and benefit from their other purchases.

Methinks Cheaper Prices = More Purchases = better for all.

Thanks,

Vic...

P.S. Mechwarrior lady voice sounds like she's bored and doesn't care that missiles are incoming.

[gregsolidus]

How are my decisions "bad" and how am I complaining?

[Weird Beard]

I agree that we should keep a paint scheme/cockpit item (or anything we pay real money for) that we purchase. The biggest shock for me is that it cost double for black(!!) Why? Is it because everyone would choose it? Supply and demand? I was a little put ou by that. Other than those two points, everything seems pretty good with the customisations.

And yes, the BB talks a little too much and takes a bit too long to say it. Good voice though. I heard some complaints going into it but don't feel the pain that many seem to with her.

Overall, pretty good step forward PGI. The aurora on night arctic looks nice too.

[El Penguin]

Here's a comparison of all black to all red if it makes it easier to see. Both have the same green on them.

[Poldi]

I totally agree. I won't even spend 1MC on paints if I am not sure I can re-use them

[Fiachdubh]

If in a unit you will probably only need to paint it once anyway. Besides it takes a lot of paint and man hours to paint a mech of course it would be expensive .

Don't be unsure. You can't re-use old paints without re-buying them. They should sell a "acetone" module that lets you rub paint off until you like it.

I would like to pay MC for HHoD scheme

I don't think we nailed down one yet?

[Niyata Raastad]

I like the Twilight Sparkle paint job. ;-)

Looking forward to playing around with the changes and seeing what I can produce. ...with our without the cutie mark.

[HlynkaCG]

I too would be willing to pay signifigantly more per color/pattern it permenantly unlocked it for all the mechs in my mech bay.

As it stands I'm looking at $2.60 - $4.58 per variant to paint all my mechs in unit colors and that's a bit rich for this broke college student's blood.
