Title says it all. This is quite expensive and imo not worth it.

750MC for 3 colors that are not basic? Then almost 1mil c-bills for 3 basic colors? Wow little expensive there.

Then 250MC for a banner that sits out of view?

Come on PGI, I know this is your money maker, but man, you need to drop prices by about 10 fold.

[Kavoh]

If these were cheaper, we would buy more. Simple as that.

[Ras187]

Ye Wow! Expensive

Agreed

[Zeus X]

If these were cheaper, i would have already bought it all.

PS2 500bills for a cammo thats 5 bucks. I have no problem paying these prices.

[PL Harpoon]

They need to make money somehow.

Superflous changes to the cosmetics of my mech cost IRL money? *chortle*

I may buy fuzy dice when available, and some basic colors if I get bored.

Forumites: Thanks for metering the disappointment out to me here before I can boot in game

So long I can't chose the map (or world) where I would like to play its pointless to take a camo.
Off cause fancy stuff like pink red etc. is different.
I see forward for Kurita camos. Then I will make my first purchase.

Cockpit Items are forever and interchangeable between mechs, so prices are perfectly fine.

Big fail on the "Hanging" Items though. Just put them somewhere around the bottom of the frontal cockpit area, so you can at least see them when using cl_fov = 80.

Paints need to be interchangeable between different variants of the mech, then MC prices would be ok too.

Credit prices are fine. Need to play 3-4 games for the price of two paints, where is the problem?

useless stuff, I'll stick with the nice military default camo, only when I'll really have nothing to spend my c-bills on, I'll start wasting it in colors, but not certainly with MC.

Yeah but can't you apply that camo any time you want after buying it instead of having to pay that each time?

Though I don't mind paying those cbills for each application, paint in theory would be expensive and it makes any scheme you pick a bit more meaningful as you're not changing it constantly...or able to see it in match anyway.

I wanted the Kurita Banner, but it looks pretty awful in game (at least in the mech lab) - so I'm not getting it.. If they want people to buy them, don't make them look so poor and skimp on the textures...The file sizes are very small and I think it's the specular map that causes the dragon to look so bad, but the diffuse and normal maps could be better.

I already paid a pretty massive sum of RMT for Legendary and not going to waste MC's on inane cockpit items and/or camo.

nice i would pay with MC, but there isnt any founders anymore... shame.

A majority of them are one time use. Also I wouldnt fret to much they did say there will be freebies to. Unlike PS2 we do get some free colors.

It should be priced as high as the current quality of the game permits. Also, player demand for the title should reflect as well in the price. Given the state of these indicators currently, it does appear they've misplaced the decimal a few thousands of a place off. Up until now, I assumed c-bills were whole numbers with no cents. In time, it might be the gold standard. It is something long anticipated and most useful if paint schemes can be named, saved, and chosen per map. THAT would be worth current pricing.

[Darzok]

It is a little costly but not to the point if i find get the colour right i would not pay.
