We are extremely happy to bring to you Phase 2 of our Camo Spec system! We have listened to your feedback and incorporated it.

PGI, you trolls you. Phased out the first phase after you realized nobody wanted to pay lots of money for colors I see :/

The first one on the list?

Sorry Phranken Red for MC

[nksharp]

Still can't even paint my founder mech though which is kind of lame (well, you can, it just looks awful).

[Khael Soto]

Yes!!- giving us back the credits previously spent -that's customer centric plus its smart - I guess that's how Amazon.com would have done it: we love you, and then spend them all right away and more! :-) Love it.

[zudukai]

is that 250 MC for a full unlock? or per mech?

[Vassago Rain]

Changed back all my colors, and gave you some more dorrahs.

Much appreciate the sharper everything, not to mention it no longer being rental.

Thanks, guys. More like this, please.

Edit: it posted my post twice in the same post?

Camo patterns (the patterns, not colors) are per mech though which is lame. 1250 mc just to unlock phraken....for one mech type. Come on PGI..guess I will wait for their 'phase 3' of the camo scam.

[Vassago Rain]

I made you this really ****, really oldschool camo. Tell me this doesn't just pop.

[Denninos]

Thank you!
Those changes finally made it worth it spending money / points on colours

And that leaves me with only a single question...

Are they permanent unlocks for all your mechs (I suspect not), or is it just per-mech? (Both of them are better than pre-patch, but I'm curious.)

*EDIT*
Well, still, it's a lot better than before, so TY.

Colours are unlocked for ALL '
Mechs.

Skins are unlocked for either that 1 'Mech 1 time (single use), or that chassis unlimited times (simply unlock it. 10x the price of single use).

HERESY.

Although... if we ever got exterior speakers with mp3 capability... I'm A Barbie Girl from a Pink Atlas would be as hilarious as it was wrong...

EDIT By the way, I seem to recall some Dev Diary entry or something where it said applying pink paint to one's 'Mech would cause all of Paul's weapons to gain 100 billion light year range, instant lock-on to your mech from any distance in space-time, and the ability to ignore all distance and obstacles between the two of you.

So, you have been warned... again...

Wasn't there a pink mech in one of the Solaris matches in MW4:M?

Colours unlock for all Mechs. Patterns unlock for a Chassis (IE. you buy it for your HBK 4SP, and it is also unlocked for your 4P, 4G, 4J, etc.)

Ok so maybe my math is wrong here, but I dont see how 1,250 for a chassis unlock is a fair price? I found this out the hard way and read this post after I bought the Phraken pattern and colours for 4,250 MC for my Atlas. I thought I was unlocking the pattern for all mechs then realized after it was for the chassis only.

Here's where the math kinda confuses me.. 125MC for a single use unlock of the Phraken pattern for that specific mech variant. 1,250 MC for the chassis. There are 3-4 variants per chassis, so 500 MC spent would unlock the Phraken pattern individually for the entire chassis.. In order to make the 1,250 MC chassis wide unlock viable you would need to unlock 10 variants for that one chassis?! How does that make any sense? I wish I could take my decision back and just unlock the single use pattern instead. Thats 1,125 MC I will never see again for something not well thought out.

Please tell me I am missing something here because otherwise there should never be a use for the 1,250 unlock except to pray on slow individuals like myself.. Extremely disapointed in this.
