Doubt they'll ever put it in.

Dont get serious, just a fun thought.

If the game ended up being successful Id pay >30 bucks.

I don't care much for it for my own mechs, but it would be funny to watch little gold commandos running around like coffee buzzed C3P0s.

Exactly as much as it would take to literally coat said mech in actual gold.

Seeing as how a bunch of electrons can't really be coated in gold... nothing.

And IDC what it is or or how much money you have, if you're coating a weapon in gold for reasons other than rustproofing (and there are cheaper alternatives for that) then you're wrong.

Ugliest thing in the world is a gold plated AK 47.

If it was SO SHINY that any time you fired a laser at it it Supernova'd everyone else's screens the way Catapults did last patch, I would spend all the money on it.

It's not pay-to-win. It's pay-to-win-with-style.

As far as people who question the point in spending money on digital stuff. Thats a very weak argument We live in the western world. We live to spend our money and time on useless things. Why ever buy games, or go to sports events, or eat expensive food or anything else that isnt REQUIRED to survive. Obviously its just cause you want to. If you dont want to, fine, whatever. But try not to be a pretentious **** about it.

I'd pay for a skin, perhaps as much as $5.
Not gold though, super tacky, super easy to see.

Solid gold is pretty lame. Make it realistic camo, then we'll talk. Or My little Pony skin YES
