WELL?

[Megalosauroid]

Since mechs are so expensive in MC the only ones that are worth spending it on are hero mechs because they speed up the grind and mean you dont have to buy more MC.

[Feetwet]

No, saw the sale got excited. Read the details...closed game.

The only item I am less likely to spend mc on is a mech I can purchase with cbills. Ridiculous sale.

THINK OF THE SAVINGS

[Doubtful Danary]

Another shameless money grab attempt. But they did it because they know there are some lazy ppl out there that would rather spend real money on things rather than grind it. So I guess its a win/win for them.

[Joe3142]

I didn't, especially when I get get the mech after a couple of matches using C-bills.

[deadendoregon]

C-bills only for non hero mechs. I will use my left over MC for mech bay slots most likely.

[Gigastrike]

Already mastered 3, so no.

[Roughneck45]

Owned them all already.

They should really make the sale price better if they are expecting anything from it. Like, at least 50% off, if not more.

Nope. Not my cup of tea.

I see you used the word 'lazy' when you meant 'successful'

That said, didn't spend the MC - no interest in Dragons.

No, I meant lazy. Just because you have a few bucks to throw at a game doesnt make you successful.

[Eddrick]

I don't like the Dragon. Not buying one.

[Sean von Steinike]

I tried to like the Dragon but, wasn't for me. So no purchase.

Quick Hint for PGI

Learn from platforms like STEAM and offer discounts and sales of over 50 %.... then you will actually make more money ( or in this case get more people to spend MC ) than if you only offer 20 %

you also should know what to offer less for and what to offer more for. The dragon for example is not a loved mech (not talking about flame and fang variants) . if you wanted people to bite on this sale for this particular mech you should of offerend a 50 or 60 % MC cost off and you would of even got ME to get it ( and i hate the dragon) . follow the masters of sale tactics and you WILl get RICH pgi

If only the Dragon didn't have that overly obnoxious, shoot me here center torso...

[Bryan Bekker]

Dragons are garbage any way you look at it. Cheaper or not. Completely outclassed by the other heavies (Blah blah tonnage difference, its the hard points / shape).

[Red squirrel]

Already got the 5N and 1N (+Flame) - not interested in another Dragon

Actually I used to think so too. Until recently I did not own any Dragons.
Played them several times in CB but always sucked badly.

Over the holydays I got a 5N 1N and Flame.
These mechs rock - Try it if you dont believe me.
You just need to know when to engage and when to disengage.
And that is the big advantage of the Dragon - you are actually fast enough to disengage.

Also I like it very much that these mechs feel "real" (I know strange word for a fantasy world).
But I prefer them to chees builds like RVN-3L Splatterpults and 4,5,6-PPC Stalkers

I'm always pondering about giving the Dragon a chance, but this sale did not give me the final shove to this decision.

[TexAce]

I hope they learn from this vote that they can't wrap **** in a nice paper and present it as a gift.

I mean...seriously?
