Would I buy individual cammo specs for different mech's? Yea I would.
Would I buy a color if I knew I could use it forever? Yea I would.
Would I be silly enough to buy new colors as they came out? "Oooh! I have the shiny red, but they just released a candy apple red. Hells yea!" Yea, that would be me.
If they had individual "skins" for certain mechs. "Circus clown skin for my Fatlas?" I'm dumb enough to spend money on that for the lulz
Buying single applications of paint schemes doesn't entice me to spend money, much less more money. Buying permanent things, aka increasing my artistic palette to choose from, does make me want to come back and spend more money. Plus it has this Pokemon "Gotta buy 'em all" draw.

Also, you should never have to pay MC's to actually paint your mech.

I used to think REAL paint for my miniatures was expensive at like $4 per bottle. A bottle that will last me for 50+ mechs easily.

Yes please! I won't buy any paint in the current non-unlocked system but I guarantee I will spend money on paint/deco I can maintain in my inventory and use again.
I absolutely agree. I want to spend the money to customize my mech, but the restrictions have made me balk at it. Additionally, not being able to customize the founder's mechs beyond the one minor color channel is also a decision that is probably keeping a lot of people from spending money. When your "go to" mech can't be customized, how likely are you to spend money on your secondary mechs? I'm not sayinf the founders mechs are everyone's "go to" choice, but I'm willing to bet they are for a substantial portion of the player base.

I want to buy customization for my mech! I just can't justify it under the current system, and to me that's a shame because they are developing a system that would really add a lot to the game without affecting the battlefield.

The prices on everything in this game are very high, but as it stands the Camo Spec system is ridiculous.
If anything a formal petition should be started.
Not that I think it'll get us anywhere as cosmetics = bank for F2P.
Its a rip off, they know it, but they know multitudes will cave eventually.

The PC gamer pattern is awesome since it can be applied on and off at no cost. This feels much better, and can still generate PGI some cash if I change my mind too much.

Until the paint/camo feature becomes more realistically affordable, I won't be painting my mechs.

They chose to milk us plain and simple with the camo sys.
