Attention, mech pilots! For a limited time, you can test drive the Berserker, Raider and Grenadier mechs for free. Try before you buy! All 3 mechs are come fully equipped with items and internals.



Head to your garage to test drive these mechs right now until March 25!

Not yet, however we are working on a system currently that will allow you to do that in the future!

I hope that this system comes soon. There are already a few players who expected to get the full equipment when they bought the mech via the purchase button on the test drive in the garage...

We wanted to give a better experience to new players with an empty garage, guess we just didn't communicate that well enough.  We shall fix this very soon.

Is there any chance that other UI changes will be implemented as well_

• I often read about new players who got confused and think that mechs/items/etc. cost HC and MC. A simple "or" between the HC and MC amount would be great!
  
• I also see a lot of new players thinking that unlockable weapons/items/etc. have to be paid with MC because they don't understand what the "Unlock early" on the HC button/column means. A "Level 15" or " Level 18" text would great instead of the "Unlock early" text.

Thanks for the information. I already got my MCs to get buy a new Mech as soon as I know it'll be fully upgraded when I buy it hahaha
By the way, since players are giving ideas and things, why don't make things more simple_ I mean, to be fair, I think players that buy Mechs using MC could be a little more rewarded than just being able to buy a Mech a few battles earlier than someone who's griding HC. What do I mean_ That, If you buy a Mech with HC, you get the new Mech and done, but if you buy it with MC, you get it fully unlocked.
Anyway, just an idea/opinion

Excellent ideas, by the way!
This game is still pretty new so, as always, it will get better and clearer as time passes, but, há, better ideas, better improvements haha.
One other thing that I think could be also implemented, or... better, that could be changed, are the cosmetic itens. I mean... Don't you think it's a "little" Overpriced that you have to buy the same item Again and Again for every different Mech_ Same camouflage, Same droids, Same Thrusters...  Not the same, same, since you may want to pick a different one, but, really, I already have the "X" Thruster and the "Y" Camouflage paint, WHY do I have to pay for it AGAIN_ I Really think it's Overpriced. If the itens were at least cheaper, but some cost 500-1000... that's way too much to spend over and over again.

[Optimus471]

can any one tell me best mech........

[eXile6]

I believe there isn't the "best" mech. Each mech is balanced and suited to its own purpose.

[DFTR]

It depends on your playstyle.  These are test-drive mechs.  I suggest you play them all to get a feel for what you like.  Save up your hawken credits so you can buy a mech + items/internals too.

I am almost thinking this is sarcasm, It has potentially the highest damage output in game and you want it even stronger. I think you just need to practice aiming. It is deadly when you manage to hit with the rev-gl

Did you never realise I may have been joking on what to expect what people would say_

I love my Grenny and I never find it UP or OP, but situational. If you ask the other members of BSB you will see I am quite good in it too.
