Hi. I was looking in the garage to be disappointed that there's no CR-T Recruit. Everyone has one (It was the beginning mech a long time ago) But it said its available for purchase. Is there some Redeem Code for it or is it in the shop some place secret?

I don't believe you can anymore. It's basically a worse Assault anyway.

Actually the CR-T had comparable stats to the Assault. Some bits higher, some lower, but it wasn't outright worse than the Assault.

The c-rt should have some different weapons (besides assault rifle), that introduce players to other weapon types, like a mini"flak" to represent shotgun-types

I have a lot of ideas and would like some feedback on them:

...long time ago... like a month or so. Made my day :D

Okay srsly now: The CR-T aka. Fred might be re-released at some point, but currently there is no way for a new player to get him :/

Nah, it was basically worse.

The Assault had an edge over the CR-T in areas that were actually relevant, those being health and speed. The better fuel economy and better radar were really not enough of an advantage to seriously consider the CR-T. And overheat duration is irrelevant with the Coolant ability anywho.


everything is going to be daijobu

If you have images in your signature, you're part of the reason why I disable them.

There's a subtle humor to Hawken, the CRT is part of it, I hope they bring it back.

Yup... +1 to this. At least let people buy it if they want to. What do we have to lose?

I didn't realize it has become sort of a novelty mech now; I didn't notice you can't buy it in the shop.

 

I love my Fred. So much in fact that I always kept him in his original state. I only have the starting shield on it and never unlocked primaries.

It was a statement for new players (back when you started out with CR-T) to show them they are not at a disadvantage just because they don't have items, internals and weapon unlocks. Or a "better looking" mech.

 

Looks deceive.

I don't think they ever should have changed it.  They should have just offered new players a choice of CR-T, Rocketeer or Reaper as their "freebie"... and then forced them to play all the way through a longer training scenario and a few matches of TDM bots with it BEFORE they can join their first online multiplayer match.  (that last condition is to help prevent smurfing by annoying experienced players with the unskippable requirement to repeat that tedious process again)


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke
