Close! The boosts can be used when ever you choose to activate it. The upper tiers get access to the lower tier camo, but not the other emblems.

These items are totally unrelated to any awards from those two events.

If you get an upper tier package you'll automatically get the other camo skins, but not the emblems.

The prototypes are something new! We'll have more details about them share soon!

Hope this helps!

It does, thanks.  Trigger pulled.

Part of your questions were answered, I believe.  I put in bold the relevant part in the quote above from hugs.

Yes, I was aware when I read that, but that doesn't help me with my other two. If for instance I was busy the week of opening beta and had few days off, if I decide to purchase the commander package, maybe I want to use a 1 or 3 days boost (purchased separately) and save the 7 day boost for a time when I will be able to make full use of it.

I also wanted to know what the f2p players get as stock-it sounds like they will not have any starting points to purchase a mech, so will it basically work like a rental or trial_ Will there be one class like the assault that is the default free one like we had in CBE1 and 2_ Will they be able to choose the class they want to demo_ The reason I am asking is because I and probably some other people here may have friends that have yet to try the game, and knowing this may help get them into the wagon.

[GrayTech]

Added my order and thanks =)

[Nightan]

[Gigant]

Thanks for the Pre-sale bundle offer, it worked on me. See you guys in Hawken.

The things a man will do for a repair drone!

[Kaempfer]

Is there any info regarding price of meteor credits_ We get $5 with the packs but how many credits is that_
Considering that we use close to 1000 to fully equip a mech.
Thanks!

The "like" system makes this comment redundant, so just consider this post added emphasis.

[Saer]

Got my order in !

[NuclearXmas]

What class mech is the prototype mech_

[Katejina]

^ This. I'm holding on my purchase until we know what the prototype mech is all about. Is it a reskin or an actual new type of mech_

Don't be a fuzzy bunny. Your questions were answered, even if they didn't address you directly.

In case you weren't satisfied...

This would be foolish, and a waste of your money. Commander package unlocks everything, and I'd venture to say that the same boosters will be available when the game launches for less money (because there aren't other items packaged with it).

In every test so far, Assault was unlocked and in the garage when the game went live. One can assume it will be the same for CB3 and probably open beta as well.

The only one who is being a "fuzzy bunny" here is you. I asked straightforward questions, and the devs proceeded to answer pretty much all of the questions except mine. If they don't have an answer, I'm fine with that, a simple courtesy like "we're still discussing this-we'll get more info on this later" would be more than appropriate. I'd hope that everyone here regardless of their disposable income as consumers would like a better idea of the product they are getting for the money they are putting down. I was simply stating a fact when I stated my questions got skipped; if you choose to reflect a "fuzzy bunny" tone from it, that's an issue with you.

That would be your opinion that it's a waste of money. No, commander package doesn't "unlock everything". Does it give me all the mechs, internals, items_ Does it get me instantly to level 20_ Obviously not. If I want to be efficient and use a one day boost or a 3 day boost, and not waste the 7 day boost when I can save it for when I have more time, that's not foolish at all.

I like how you 'venture to say', when it appears quite the opposite. The package is giving you more of a value.

If I'm want to pick the right package and explain to friends what the f2p system entails, I don't want to assume. We have a right to know exactly what we're getting. You really need to tone down on your attitude problems.

These exclusive benefits are is only available through this limited-time promotion! It's a great time to stock up!

I might have missed this but by limited-time how long do you mean_ I need to get some money on Pay-Pal since I don't have Pay-Pal it might take a little while, which is why I'm wondering...
