Russ..can we play in the E.U or not ? I am somewhat confussed..

you can, but until there are eu servers a high latency may diminish the experience.

Can I upgrade from Elite to Legendary?

Yes. click on the link at the top right to where the founders packages are being sold (that place that you used to look obsessively at while spamming F5...) and there should be an upgrade feature in said link.

I am not old enough to sign the NDA. Could my parents? Also, how would I change my founders mech (panicked and got the atlas)

[Whiski]

One question. Will MWO support Track IR (the head tracking device from Natural Point)?

[GHQCommander]

When/will you be giving out some beta access for more sales?

To people such as myself who see no reason why not. I don't give up a penny if there is something on the table I can have. Just the way I am.

A few questions really piling up.

Q, When will we shut down the founders program and the ability to buy them?
A. There are some variables at play that are too difficult to explain, suffice it to say we dont know for sure but I can say that Aug 7th is very likely the longest it will run. But it is limited so don't wait too long if you can afford to. For those waiting on paychecks etc I would say we have in all liklelyhood at least 4 weeks at the minimum,

Q. how long can we upgrade them
A. I can say we would allow up until Aug 7th to upgrade

Q. Can we change our mech choice before the Aug 7th cut off
A. This currently isn't offered but we will look into it...no promises yet but we will try.

TY! thats what I was looking for!

[jboca]

will there be an asian mwo server?

[Solid Alexei]

Are the founder mechs unique in a sense that these particular configurations/paint jobs will only be available to Founders?

Thank you!

Can I just get two Elite packs for one account? 4 month premium and 160$ in-game currency sounds like a hefty bonus and I guess two premium mechs would be enough for me

Right? Honestly, in my opinion, the Lengenday pack should be 4 months of premium and $160 in game currency. (You're paying twice as much as Elite, why aren't you getting at least twice the benefits??)

Sure a prime variant has 4 medium lasers so beam hard points...so long as you make the room you can put PPC's on it.



Remember there are beam hard points on the torsos

so no you cant put PPC's on the big arms...but you could on the torsos

Ooooookaaay. I got elite with a hunchie anyways, but I would have really have loved to pilot a K2 founderpult.

Right so I want to buy a Founders' Pack. Problem is, The Ultimate Pay method doesn't accept APO addresses, so I can't use that, and PayPal for some reason won't accept my information, even though I've double-checked my information I was putting in time and again to make sure it was correct, and it almost got my card and bank account locked out. Is there some other way I can make this purchase? Something that might take into account I live in Japan and have an APO address?

[AztecD]

ive had issues with ultimate pay before cough*WoT*cough so be carefull, support didnt help that time, here is hoping that its better this time

What is the speed of unladen sparrow? On serious note are founder mechs exactly same as normal starter mech (except that bonus you get)

Would that

It depends on whether you are talking about an African or European swallow.
*boom* MiG77 explodes You're on the wrong side of that question, my good man

OP: can you include a short summary of the available mechs? Class (light, med, ...), number of hardpoints, the default fitting you're buying... If you go for the 1-mech pack, it should enable you to make an informed decision. Now non-Battletech versed people are taking a shot in the dark just clicking in a name.
I've played around enough with the offered Mechs in previous MW games to know what it's about, just offering some advise.[color=#000000][/color][/left]

Sent you a PM to help.

[Zarkus]

Russ, the packages offered are great and all, but I'd love to trade the Founder's Mech selection for one to be made later. Like, say, I don't know... when Mad Cats are introduced? If anything, that could tip the scales for those choosing between the Elite and Legendary packages! Is this a bad idea? Am I a bad person for thinking this?

[bobow98]

Just bought it

Can't waiiiiit!

[AtomPower]

Thank you!

Configurations are the Prime variant. Paint job is unique, as is the built-in C-Bill booster
