Dot matrix printer...I got plenty! Let me get my noise canceling headphones out!

I was thinking we launch a whole product line of 'Pink Thunder's Notes' like Cliff's Notes but online games specific...

Multi-Hundredairedom, here we come!

You should also add some info on Factions as well. If I got 1 € for every newbie coming here asking which to choose, I would be millionaire. :)

Because I cannot like Kaemon's OP more than once. I have liked all his posts in this thread. He is surely a most patient and awesome man for taking the time for doing this. Kudos bro.

Might I suggest adding Sarna.net? A lot of newbies might not be up to speed on the lore - houses or timelines. Nice work though on making this - pretty clutch.

I assume they'll have a quick descriptor when people do the 'House Select' option.

If not I'll probably add something once we get into BETA.

I'm debating that, I agree it's a invaluable BT resource, but not specific to MW:O....hmmm

Let me noodle that, maybe I'll add a Additional Resources section to the bottom (it's getting long and I need to leave room for future stuff).

*edits*
And I forgot the wiki...and no one noticed.

*hangs his head in shame*

*unshames*

Wiki added
Sarna.net added

Beer commencing = no more updates for tonight (or they might be Toast/Brony related).

Thanks all for the comments, PM me if you see something I miss or I get lazy about updating!

Great stuff. May i suggest adding in one of the threads detailing the list of mechs available for the time frame (three was a good one that has sarna links to all available mechs) or officially announced mechs as a link also. Plenty of times i have wanted to browse a game's list of vehicles etc without a succinct list that tells you what you get.

sarna.net has all this information, I'm probably not going to do much more in this thread than update info as it comes out or it's going to get way too long (we still have a few months to go don't forget).

I'd be an arrogant *** and fail miserably if I tried to do a 'Faction Info' or 'IS Era Post' because frankly I don't remember as much as I should (tequlia meet brain, brain meet early onset long term memory loss).

But if someone has the info and wants to PM it to me, I could probably organize it and we could joint post something (I have no issues doing that).
