you're not supposed to be able to buy power.

Can the module be hit by weapons, and if so, does it cool you down?

No they cannot, and (Equipment)Coolant Pods explode like ammo when hit.

soooooo, consumables. AKA, pay to win. AWESOME! can't wait. He who has the most monies, wins. Good thing I'm starting a new job. Can't wait to double alpha with a 6 PPC stalker, pop a coolant flush, then double alpha again. (never mind that PGI had previously stated that in no way would they implement a coolant flush, because it would break the game and create imbalance. good job PGI)

Or airstrike an area and gain a huge advantage.

or artillery strike some poor fool

And when they say it will be available for c-bill and MC costs. What they really mean is, better stockpile your MC.

I had high hopes for this game. That it wouldn't fall into the trap of wanting more funding, and implementing pay-to-win features in order to generate such revenue. But apparently, like all other f2p games, the lure of the almighty dollar was too much. Hell, if they're short on funds, PGI should just straight up tell us. I'm sure a lot of the hardcore players would be happy to pitch in, instead of having game-breaking additions slapped in to generate cash. If they haven't noticed, most of the players are over 20. Meaning most of us realize that games don't just magically get made. They take time and money. This just makes me sick

edit: here's how they will work. Basically if you don't have a raven or ddc with massive # of slots, you get the MC version. Thus, p2w

edit2: ppl are focusing on the coolant module. It's the airstrike/arty ones that I'm more worried about.
"hey, know how you're like, wanting to play an even match and such? our 8 man is just gonna pop 8 airstrikes mk?"

Critical criticism is good, it's how the 3rd person idea got stopped. The sooner they know there is a large opposition to something the less development time that is wasted on it.

stopped till they decide theyre gonna do it that is. Like this idea

So why the complaining about something you haven't even tried out?

Pay to win is not good for the game.

[Michael Costanza]

Maybe they'll have Coolant Flush take up a module slot. Do you really trade improved sensor range or a capture module for a coolant flush?

Jenners and ravens living together, real biblical stuff.

Living together? What makes you think the Jenner will spare the raven? All will be lost in the mech ecosystem, only jenners will remain

[Tennex]

i knew it would when i heard their buisness model is mostly inspired by world of tanks.

[Super Mono]

Nope, the gold plated coolant flush module will be impervious. And it's space efficient as well so you can boat other MC only modules while space poors try their darnedest to keep up with their poor quality cbill only options.

[Mycrus]

Good, i don't need space poors in my game...

Seriously, take a chill pill and see how it gets implemented first before wailing...

Look at that crap.

Look at what? 15%... 20%... twice per match for C-bills. 35% once per match for MC.

DOOOOM!!!!

Do I get a discount for bulk purchases?

[Norris J Packard]

I love how much time they spent trying to keep the Hero Mechs from being P2W (they really do spend a lot of time doing this), and then suddenly do this.

It is mind boggling.

You may not realize it, but you really do need them for your game to exist...

[Super Mono]

This is only the beginning. Wait for more MC only modules that will be more easily loaded on mechs since cbill only spacepoors have to use two modules to match the 1 gold module.
