RUSS:If i chose the catapult for my founders mech, will i be allowed to upgrade it to the shorter range laser varient? (Please do not confuse this with customizing the mechs loadout)

[vettie]

what are the chances that you guys have a drawing and give away 1 (or more) of each pack?

congrats on a successful launch of sales.

looking forward to the game

I see that a few folks are asking about the "Mech Tree" I didn't see you respond to that. I am assuming it is some type of progression to better mechs or more choices on mechs maybe.


Will you guys be celebrating tonight now that you're finally getting paid? Have a beer on me. I got the Legend

Some folks have been asking about mech trees - see the dev blogs about role warfare

In general read through all the de blogs great stuff in there you may have missed.

[Diligent Gravy]

I have two confirmed payments, (one more than I need for legendary) with no response. I am assuming a heavy server load but what should I do about the second payment I do not need? Id rather not be out a second $120. I can wait to get the legendary thing as I have a payment authorized to PGI but rather not pay for two.

Any ideas on what I should do here sirs?

Thanks!

It is nothing directly ltied to the Founder's and was already answered.

The tree is separate for each class and you can choose one at the start, then advance in the class to get more mechs meaning more customsation, but no better mechs.

EDIT: Ninja'd by a dev... wish I was a Clanner to challenge him to a Trial.

Ditto to this!

Russ,
Will there be a wipe from clsed to open beta or from beta to release?
i ask this because of the XP and C-bills, will we lose them?

This may have already been answered; but, how long will the Founder's package be offered?

I think they are because there are already some topics because of that...even if I'm only a single person without any insight of program codes and so on I would say that will change as soon as the big run for the founder packages is getting less...

[TLBFestus]

Typical Chiken, try to be patient as I think the forum servers head was cut off and it's panicking.

[Sharkgarrett]

Russ, thank you for answering these questions and taking time out to do this.

Here's mine:

I notice you said you were going to be pulling more keys out for those who bought Founders. What can we expect to see or experience/hope for in this upcoming week? What could you say our chances for Founders going to look like?

[Major Tom]

Hi Russ,
Will I be able to change faction in the game, say from a Lone Wolf, to a Merc Unit, to a House Unit, and/or Clan? and will there be a cost/penalty for doing so? This question has a direct bearing on the number of Founders packages I will be purchasing (although not on the ammount I will be spending).
Thanks

Just asking if they're aware, i'm sitting here at work trying to leave the office so this isn't my top concern right now.

[Valatar]

Since we're rebooting the Q&A from page 16, gonna repost this one as it still hasn't been asked by anybody:

The $80 in-game currency, is that C-Bills, or a magical real-money-only currency that isn't possible to earn from shooting things? I'm curious about whether it can buy things that can't be bought with C-Bills, or if the $80 is just to start out with a giant pile of C-Bill cash in the bank.

You gave the example of buying mechs with it, are mechs all that are going to be in that store, or are there other toys like paint jobs, garage slots, XP boosters, etc. also in there?

[AsakuraZero]

russ what are your impression on the turn out of the founders and more importantly

Latin america its allowed to pay for the founders pack ? or its just like EU?

[BlindProphet]

*For in-game currency, Founders’ accounts will be credited beginning August 7th with a non-refundable amount of in-game currency equivalent to the retail cost set out in each package above ($40 value for VETERAN Founders, $80 value for LEGENDARY and ELITE Founders), and those credits may be used for in-game purchases of virtual items only.

So does this mean there will be no wipe between closed beta and open and open and release? Will their be a wipe? Will we get credited back anything we spend between the 7th and the wipe? Are we just screwed if there is a wipe and we've spent some?

[ArchSight]

Ok I'm putting more info into my question.

I bought veteran twice and it upgraded into elite founder. On the Email that was sent to me said, "Selected Mech: NONE" does this mean I don't get a c-bill boosted mech? Where do I go to cancel this if this is bugged?

Outstanding ! I'm all set.

One question in regards to the confirmed email with all data based on purchase, Will this be completed internally on the system
or will you need to input data at the time of the launch to activate purchase.

Thanks.

Should be all automatic

[ODD JOB]

I would like to know what will the monthly charge be to keep playing the game..or once we buy the founders pack can we play the free to play side..as I am on a limited income and if I drop $120 to then have to pay $19.95 a month to continue play..that will make me buy a smaller package..please answer this so I know what to buy

Thanks Russ for a great game
