Just curious, has anyone actually purchased a paint job, and is there anyone considering purchasing one?
The paint jobs in this game all seem ridiculously overpriced for what you get, and so far I have only seen two hangars with paint jobs since they were released. I personally find the paint jobs ugly and excessively garish and I would not use them even if they were free.

So much more useful weapons and mechs to spend 1k gold on.

Even though I'd like to be able to design my own paint job is not worth that amount of au.

I haven't yet purchased any paint jobs, but I am currently farming some gold for: shark Griffin, hoplite Patton, werewolf Stalker (maybe, might just get another skin for griffin, as I probably won't use the stalker much.), tge raijin skin, as it looks decent and is fairly cheap. Bear in mind I have every single bot and weapon that I want in the game, so I would not recommend getting skins unless you are a top tier player really.

I would happily pay gold or even real money for cool skins. Just not as much as they are asking. It's a phone game for crying out loud. .99 is the limit. I bought pumpkins, but gold is to much. 75 to 100 Au for .99 and I would buy it often when I was close to getting my next Au purchase. Maybe even once a week.

Got home from work and my son says, "Dad I did something bad. I used gold and bought skin for the GI Patton." LOL. Even a ten-year-old knows what a waste it is. But, heck, if it makes you happy, WTH not? It is pricey, though. And it really should be a one time thing, which is to say, you pay your 750 gold and should be allowed to use all the skins go on a bot.

I think that skins are a win/win, really. I mean, you don't have to buy it to compete, but if you want it, the company makes some (theoretical) money. I'd like to see them expanded and maybe some less "garish" (as Curry Pot puts it) skins introduced. I agree that the cost is exorbitant, but, again, there's no reason to get them unless you really just want it.
That said... They do not seem to be selling many. I rarely see any skinned bots in combat. They would probably sell LOTS more at half price.

I don't want to jump te gun.

I have a Griffin and a Patton with skins; honestly they're rather garish so I feel a bit self-conscious walking out in the middle of Shenzen with it on. LOL>

Definately gonna get a Raven Skin for a Griffin and eventually the Samurai sttle one for a Patton. And definately means someday... someday NOT soon. Srsly, who came up with those prices? 1k gold for coolest skin? Negotiable. 2,5k Gold... yeah, maybe I'll buy that carpet some day... Its an incredible dumb move to count on the "whales". Why not just offer for 1,99 bucks directly? They would sell hundreds... But burning 25 bucks for a skin a graphic designer needed 25min for? I'll buy booze and [censored] instead... Maybe nice.for long-time players, but definately not a cashflow generator. They should ask Vlad for some advice about capitalism Edit: I have tons of colours and pattern for every Mech in my MWO collection. They jUst accumulated cause they were cheap and frackin cool (u gottta see my Neon Jester!). In the end I spent a lot more there than I will ever here...just cause of offers (and some free stuff like 「dookie」ty colours that made u want the cooler ones)
