AirMech Server Pet
[p]Back in November we had extended downtime while we rebuilt the servers. To commemerate these dark times, we're releasing a special pet and making it free to claim for the rest of 2025. No catch, just one redeem per account. It's a sad little server that crashes down to the ground when in robot mode, and flies around after you when you're in air mode. All while sparking and smoking.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/3697950/b05500b32e518c9e684f9de0b2401aa8ac0c90bc.gif"][/img][/p][p]Just enter this code ingame. Not a Steam key! An ingame code, press Esc and you should see a place to enter it.[/p]4YZN-KAAD-AAXA-AADF

[p]Some balance changes incoming. While Angel is getting a bigger rework, for now we're making some small adjustments. But keep in mind the sniper mode is getting a full rework as we've never been really happy with it, and we want it to be done right now that we're focusing on SteamDeck/gamepad.[/p][p]We recently reduced the Kudos unlock cost of all the base AirMechs. A minor problem has been observed where players might have a skin of an AirMech before they unlock the base AirMech. This was done just to be nice and not force you to unlock them, but what we didn't realize is that for the persistent AirMech levels (important for Part level requirements) it stores all that metadata on the base AirMech. So if you don't own it, you don't earn XP. Still thinking about how to better handle this--possibly we just give you the AirMechs the Pilots are using from the Bounty missions along with the Pilots, but that still means players have to know to do that. Something to be solved, but for now always encourage new players to unlock those base classes. They should be getting plenty of Kudos from the low level Quests like beating the Challenges and Bounty missions.[/p][p][/p]
