think july is probley stress tests for the severs to judge the acceptable point between players and lag on servers ie how large a population can stably and safely each server can handle.
Psersonaly I'd think that the devs will give people ingame cash based on the founders pack bought even during closed beta so that people can use it and also piranah get to see how their shop system holds up, errors etc and then expect when due open release, possible last wipe and then C-bills etc awarded again and everyone starts from scratch on a equal footing for launch.
Even though I am EU based I have every intention of buying the elite founders pack on the 17th, because I do want access to the beta (besides wanting to realy really really play it
is to see how well my current PC will handle mwo and also to get a feel for what if any latency there is and how it's laible to effect play.
One thing hoping is piranahis has a decent amount of support staff avail in game regardless of time of day (hey people play through out 24h period) and that their not going to do like NCsoft did during aion launch for example and only have GM support avail upto 5pm (which was aroud the time botters/gold sellers etc came out cause they knew support wasn't there during that time period) and also reasonable response times to tickets/pertitions (one game I've played, I've known support to take upto 4 weeks to respond/get to which really does win the award for longest response time ever lol)

What if you get the founder with the 1 or 2 month premium and the whole time you cant log in because the server is a log jam?
Valid point hoping they have multiple login servers to handle the loads, was LMFAO when cataclysm expansion launched for wow and the wow login servers couldn't cope with the sheer amount of attempts at logins lol basicly could say blizzard got their players to DDOS their login server unintentionaly lol
