If I buy the Veteran founder's package, can I upgrade later?

Title says it all. Am I able to chip in the extra $30 (or $90) to upgrade my founder status after I have already purchased Veteran?

you can right now, but I'm not sure how much longer that will last.

I just purchased the $60 package, and it allows me to throw in another $60 for the highest-tier package. Im not sure if, or how long, that offer will last. I say pull the trigger on the $60 package, you get a mech and some more in-game cash, all for the price of a typical AAA release. I dont mind, considering i grew up playing mechwarrior 2, 3, and 4 and the nostalgia is through the roof!

I'm in the same boat. My experiences with mechwarrior dates way back and I especially have so many fond social memories from mw4 on the zone.

I started out with elite and ultimately paid for legendary, mainly for wanting to support the game. The upgrade is not worth it really, in terms of the founder's mechs. If your name in the credits are important, go for it. Otherwise, it's probably better spent on MR or later packages.

The Elite package is the best bang for your buck by far, the Veteran second best. The Legendary is terrible value for your money, unless you really consider your name in the credits wroth like $38 or something.

the 4 founders mechs is a good deal considering you get +50% xp/money from them so you can switch up if one isn't your playstyle

Not XP. Just c-bills.

Someone spreadsheeted this out a while ago. The Elite is the best value. Legendary is least. Unless, like I said, you consider your name being in the credits to be like $30+.

There's your problem, thinking that money is the way out of your misery.
