What's next? People demanding to see the source code of MWO because they're such diehard BT fans?

[Strikeclone]

I feel screwed as I only signed up yesterday and I haven't been picked for the beta waa waa

Side note I filled out the questionnaire but it says 22 out of 23 total items completed, but I cant find anything else to complete so my 96% is not going to help me get beta is it

Allright first I appreciate that they are bringing us the game free to play I can't help but feel like I got screwed along with other players.
The majority of people who have been supporting and watching and waiting for this game to go live have been stuck waiting with a giant yellow pending yet people who barely know what the name Mechwarrior ever referred too get full access right off the bat.
I understand that they wanted to see what the learning curve was could have gotten that information alot easier then denying the people who have supported the Mechwarrior community for well over a decade.
Personally I am sick and tired of waiting for the game devs to finally come out with "ok the game is ready to go sorry we didn't take any input from the true fans of the game but instead used a bunch of newb hampsters as a testring platform."
Personally I think i am going to go play something else for the next 6 months and show as much interest in playing and supporting this game as they have shown in allowing true Mechwarrior fans to play and be a part of creating Mechwarrior online.

It's nice how you made a new login so you could post this, so your main login doesn't get any cap dumped on it. Actually it's not nice, it's sad. sad that you don't stand up and support what it is you have to say.

The Devs are doing a good job, If they are issuing keys randomly or targeting a specific user group doesn't matter to me. It could well be that they are taking in the people with higher end machines first just to make sure that everything is working right and then slowly lowering the systems to the olderest ones to make sure the game is still playable for them as well. 9 days and the founders pack comes out and you are trying to grief the devs, that's selfish and childish and not worthy.

and ROH, you say that you have come across people from the community who are already in the beta, you know that by telling you they are in breach of the NDA and that makes me wonder, are you trying to stir the pot for a reason or are you just that messed up. you'll get in when you get in and not a second sooner.

[Hartsblade]

Okay, I know you guys are bored, but can we stop feeding the Trolls?

[Faenwulf]

Yeah, I too feel like I'm getting screwed.

Screwed by all these threads of people demanding a beta key.

Says the guy with only 2 post.

You should be happy that they even announced closed beta.

First I would like to say... Bite me. I answered the OPs question because I felt like it. Then I answered a question from another comment. If you feel the need to point fingers at people get angry with the people asking(ug typed answering by mistake at first. Tired) the questions... But really? I think you should just get over it. If you dont like the conversation dont join.

Wow, if there IS a list of people not getting a shot at beta, I imagine you're now on it.

[Littlegob]

If I'm not in beta... ok. Just hope the one in do a good job reporting bugs, and trying to find any problem so when out the game will be the best we can have!
The only thing I'm compleining about is: "when do european players/fans will be able to get a founder pack, and will they have european serveurs?"
Cause they've been waiting for the game for as long as US players!

Apologies, but how do you know this if they're under NDA and not allowed to talk about closed beta? Source?

The following quote can be found in the "what-to-expect-for-the-rest-of-you-non-beta-players" thread in the General forum.

Those invited into the Beta are under NDA. They are not permitted to disclose any information. So don't expect to see a bunch of I'm in the beta posts, pictures, or video.

The first phase of invites are going out now. We are sending out 1,000 invites over the next 7 days.

Patience is a virtue.

Not everyone will make it into the first phase of Closed Beta. Filling out the form to 100% completion will improve your chances.

Please do not PM me for access. Or any other staff member. This is frowned upon.

This is the typical entitlement mentality prevalent these days. I don't understand why people think they are entitled to anything. I would guess the poeple posting and whining are Generation Y (born 1980-1989), because the entitlement mentality is prevalent among this generation. The question is, what more do you have to offe the developers any more than those of us waiting? The answer is nothing, and probably a lot less than some of us.

The developers have a process they have to follow to ensure the best possible game is released. Also, if you are under 18 posting that you are mad, you get to stay mad, no one under 18 will be accepted into the BETA because you can't legally agree to the NDA, and the NDA is a legal binding document.

The good news, you too can get into the beta, starting mid-july. You can guarantee your entry by buying the founders pack that goes on sale in 1 1/2 weeks.

Ahuh, sure.

Condescension, while it may make you feel better, does not nullify the truth.

[CompleteTanker]

I think that all these "I should be in Beta" and the nerdrage posts are awesome.

They make me look so well adjusted, the people around me are being suckered into thinking I'm normal.

[Name140704]

How did you get screwed? What was your investment?
