MechWarrior Online: Resistance Collection

A few weeks back during a town hall meeting Russ Bullock, President of PGI, mentioned their biggest money makers have been the mech packs they have released in the past (Founders, Phoenix, Clans Wave 1 and 2) and they would continue to release mech packs as a result. A sound business decision.

So, the newest mech pack is the Resistance Collection. A collection of four Inner Sphere chassis (three variants each)... Panther (35 tons), Enforcer (50 tons), Grasshopper (70 tons), and Zeus (80 tons). Not a bad collection of fairly well know Inner Sphere mechs. How they will hold up in today's MechWarrior Online is unknown though.

However, with quirks being added to existing Inner Sphere mechs on November 4 to make them more competitive with Clan mechs, it is a good assumption these new Inner Sphere mechs will have quirks to make them competitive as well.

The Resistance Collection looks to be another great value and lets people who were not around for the Founders or Phoenix programs or who could not afford the Clan packs to purchase a somewhat reasonably priced top tier Inner Sphere mech package ($80) to qualify for a special King Crab assault mech being released in mid-December.

Be sure to visit the The Resistance Collection page for more information. And, yes, I have the top tier Wrath pack already.
