I've obviously legendary founded, so I have the 4 founder mechs.

Here is the issue I'm running into, and I'm wondering how others are going about this.

I currently have:

2 catapults
2 atlases and
2 hunchbacks in my mech stable, among others, but these are the founder ones. (only the 1 jenner since none have ecm), obviously 1 mech being the founder mech with the cbill boost.

I am reluctant to buy a 3rd chassis for these now as I would like to hold out and wait for a hero mech chassis. I like the thought of having 2 of the 3 chassis afford a cbill bonus, since I don't really plan on having premium time (apart from the founders time which I have not activated yet). So for the most part I'm going to rely on that small boost from the chassis.

Is anyone doing the same thing, holding out on a 3rd chassis so it could be a hero? Do you think they will release hero chassis for the O.G. 4?

Currently the only chassis I own 3 of is the dragon...had they not released 2 hero's I'd probably only have 1 or 2, if any.

Do I wait and hope for a hero chassis', or pull the trigger and get the 3rd?

If Norris's thread is an accurate guide, you're going to be waiting a while.

I went ahead and bought the 3rd chassis for each and got master.No point waiting an unknown amount of time for a hero variant of the founders,if they even make one.In the time you wait you can buy the third mech,get master,sell it if you don't like it,and earn the cbills back.

if that is accurate, then alex is right, doesn't pay to wait.

At least the Hunch and the Cat are cheapish.

let me get this straight, you haven't been through and bought a 3rd variant to allow you to get elite skills on each of your founders mechs yet?

erm... ok

[Redshift2k5]

Buy the 3rd chassis. They only cost c-bills, which you should have plenty of if you havent' been buying many mechs. when the Stalker came out in December I had the c-bills to buy three of them right away.

if they bring out a hero version of any mech that already has a founders varient there will be outrage. the game is still in open beta. if you want a hero atlas, hunchy, jenner or cat then you should have bought the founders packs. i would feel robbed of money if they bought out a hero mech on one of the above chasis before the game has even been launched. that just my opinion

I'm not sure why there's some kind of conflict here.
You can buy another mech, and then ALSO buy a hero mech if you want.

It's going to happen and I think your outraged is misguided.

Anyway, I only have a 4sp that with elite on it. Only other mech I'm interested in that is coming out is Jagermech so I'm waiting until that comes.
