I want you guys to describe to me in as much detail (or little) as possible how excited you are for the beta? Also, this can be a general discussion on the beta itself and what you think will be included, what should be included, etc etc. All that good stuff.

I'll start by saying that since the beta and Inception were announced I've been checking this site daily for any updates, participating in forum activity (as seen here) and literally been thinking about nothing other than MechWarrior lately. As a long time fan, I've been waiting years for this and can't be thankful enough that it's here now.

Not enough blank space to explain my total excitement.

Been waiting for soooo long!

Probably not as excited as most people here. I like to retain a healthy skepticism as to my chances of getting in.

Found out about this game about 8 months ago and been checking this site daily ever since. So I guess this makes me very excited for the game. Not so much for the beta as I'm outside North America so can't really take part. But I hope the Devs let the beta testers post some gameplay videos to make the wait less painful.

I'm almost certain they'll eventually open up some EU servers later on for you guys.

I honestly don't expect to get in, I've never had a history of being that lucky. Or at all.

Off course they will, there are legions of mechwarriors in EU waitting for this game, not to mention wanting to throw money at the devs for this :)

Exactly, the more they open up to the player base, the more profit they receive, and the more fun the fans get. Win/win.

Moderately excited.
I would be more, but I am not in the beta so far and probably there will be a NDA, which means no videos from folks playing. Once the possibility of getting in touch with the game gets better, my excitement will hit the roof.

I am very excited at the prospect of once again being able to stride about in massive mechs hunting down my enimies and reducing them to burning hulks!

I so miss the feeling of being in control of a 90 tons of firey death, supporting my fellow warriors as we bring destruction and misery to all who oppose us (the fat pay cheque doesn't hurt either).

I am excited to once again be part of a band of brothers who share my love of Battle Mechs!

I am so excited at the chance of being the first person on my block with a confirmed mech kill. ;)

You sound exactly like me when it comes to MechWarrior and combat in general. Oh if only 'Mechs were real...
Also, nice Full Metal Jacket reference at the end there.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being not at all excited and 10 being as excited as a virgin on their honeymoon, probably a 2.

1. I'm Australian, and I have little hope of the game being all that playable until we have some oceanic servers.
2. I'm a larrikin, and have successfully trolled Paul on several occasions, so my odds of even getting into the closed beta are remote. :P
3. Even if it is the best multiplayer experience this decade, it cannot possibly live up to the hype and expectations in my head.

:(

I was inactive for about 6 months until the beta was announced, with regular check ups several times a day and putting googley eyes on rocks and smashing them to bits each day I haven't got into the beta.

Realistic thinking I like it. Although I'm sure that AU servers will be available in August. If not, then they lose the business of the entire country.
Best thing about trolling Paul though is now he knows who you are personally. Despite being Australian you probably have a better chance than I do at getting it because of it.
Hey, it's something, even if it isn't the best thing evar.
