[Reported for Inappropriate Name]

on further thought, the reason why I say they appear to love their game more than money is because while historically companies like activision and EA slave drive their development teams, the mech warrior team does not display the typical character deformaties present in miserable employees, leading me to believe they do in fact enjoy their work

He could have gotten a friday one.

Or lying. I normally don't call people liars for absolutely no reason, but tonight my reason is hope.

He said he received his today, his comment was posted 1 hour ago. But yes i ll wait until it is confirmed by russ before believing that betacorp guy or not.

Also, pretty much all last week they were sent out around 4pm Pacific which is 20 minutes from now. Again, still just hoping lol.

Seems like the invites are already out, some people told they received something.

Well, better luck next time.

Just one question that bothers me...

If this is a supposed stress-test...

Why always use steps of 1000? Isn't that a pretty low margin? I mean, I guess MWO doesn't aim for such low numbers that 1000 players more would overload the servers.

Ive read somewhere that they didnt have their full server structure yet. Unless I have missed the post where they said it was completed

I'm sick of this daily lottery to be honest. It's turned half the day of forums attention/focus into talking about whether you/I will get an invite and then discussing why you/I didn't get an invite and wondering whether there is some conspiracy involved.

Announcing it each day is annoying. I'd rather it just be said that 10,000 keys will be sent out this week, on a daily basis.. and that's it.. no regularity to it, no daily announcements, no lottery.. just like it was before all of this nonsense.

I don't mind it. I actually look forward to coming home from work at 4 and reading the forums/twitter for 3ish(approximately) hours until the invites are usually sent out.

Also, tomorrow is my day off so tonight would have been perfect to get that email haha.

Lord Bullock's twitter says he will let us know if/when beta invites are sent out. In the meantime, I shall enjoy my Steam summer sale purchases.

Or maybe Windwaker.

[Vitus1978]
