The intro post points out that the higher percentage of the questionaire you answer the better chance you have of getting in, I guess they are relying on people being honest and letting a few percent of the form go.

More fools they. Fortunately, I was able to answer everything truthfully, and still hit 100%.

I wanted to answer "do you like to play solo or with friends" both ways... but I actually like solo games slightly more than multiplayer so I chose solo. Then it "choked" on that answer so I answered the other way. I too thought the form was glitches or something... not sure if it was a truthfulness test or what :D

My survey is stuck at 96%. It asks me what my internet connection speed is and it's lets than 50mbs downstream. When asked if I would purchase the founders pack I said no. I won't make a purchase based on hype or blind faith. I've done this in the past and I've always been disappointed. If this game delivers the elements of the BattleTech universe that I want then I will purchase a founders pack based on that. All I've seen of this game thus far is concept art and a trailer.

I keep answering the last two questions over and over and it will not proceed. I hope this is just a glitch in the survey and not a way to fudge numbers in order to impress investors.

Way off topic but just wanted Angelicon to know that I really got a kick out of his/her Sig.

Thanks for the laugh.

I can't submit my Internet connection Speed of <50mps (actual is 35) nor that fact that I have not yet played a F2P game. Others are having problems with other questions, and these same questions, too.

Basic rundown: Users attempt to submit an answer and the page refreshed to say changes were submitted, however continues to present the last questions as if they were not answered.


I have tried using the latest builds of FireFox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer to submit my Internet Speed at "<50" and my F2P gaming experience as "no", but all attempts (greater than 15) have failed.

Image below shows questions being answered as stated in my post, and then "saving" results in the questionniare , and the questions remaining "unanswered."

If you are having similar problems, please report your bug here on this thread so they know what's up.

Had same issue when answering whether or not I've played F2P before. Obviously know the concept behind F2p, but it would not accept "No" as an answer.

They are prompting you to give them the "correct" answers....:)

Ha!

No, I refused to manually enter my Windows Experience Index rating, and I won't lie in my beta profile.

Kyle already vindicated me in terms of the WEI rating thing, so I'm holding tight.

I hope this is really a bug. Though I understand that they want Battletech savvy people, it would be rather disheartening.

I had this issue, and after about 20 submissions of the true answer, it finally was accepted.

Was not able to submit any answers using FF. Swapped to IE and got all answers in without problems, including correct speed. Consider it a test of your bug testing abilities!

I had a similar issue with 4 or 5 questions repeatedly showing after answering and submitting using Firefox. One of them was that part that if you selected Yes to playing an F2P game before (I haven't), you were to select which one from the list. I selected Other for this and answered the other questions and my questionnaire finally completed. Not sure if this will make a difference in the selection process or not.
