So whatever mech you had the skin on is now locked to that mech?

or can you still equip it on all the other mechs? I noticed the change to PCgamer cost is 0MC

DO NOT TAKE OFF YOUR PC GAMER SKIN.
I tried switching out and back. It says failed to purchase pattern when i tried to put on PC gamer skin again...

You can now use those colors for free on whatever mech you want!! Choose a mech and go down to the pc gamer skin and you will see the colors and you can stick them in any combo for free

Well... I was wondering when they would do that since the Coconut and Dawn are both one Mech at a time.

The PC Gamer colors (ones you pick for color channels) are also a little duller than the original colors (which annoyingly you cant return to original PC Gamer colors, the bright red that is)

Unless they changed it recently, you could only have it on one mech at a time...like the bobbleheads.

So wait. I have the PC gamer skin. I think I put it on a k2 or hunch variant....will i have to pay mc to remove it from that mech and put it on another one?

Terrible move...this spells crash and burn.

i take solice in the fact that these boards are no different from any other...with maybe the exception of the MW Tactics boards, since they don't apparently allow people to play the game.

You have never, ever, had to "remove" the PC Gamer skin to apply it to another mech. Ever.

From what people are reporting, you now have free access(those who had the skin) to both the colors and pattern. Although it sounds like there's a bug that if you have 0-MC's, you can't.

Guess why goldi... because when every the release something it breaks something that worked previously.

Lets see, pcgamres skin worked, now its broken. Added new computer VO, they brake the sound in general (massive crackling and cut of sounds everywhere)

And I only played 2 games and saw this flaws... as usual PGI = no QA at all.
