DEAR DEVS: The following questions are those raised by the community in the thread below regarding issues that may hinder them from purchasing a Founder's Package. We would appreciate your favorable consideration regarding providing answers to these questions. Sincerely, The MWO Community

1. Will my account with all benefits including my Founder’s Package be transferable to non-North American servers when they become available?

2. What are the MWO minimum system requirements?

3. What special Mechs will be available through the Founder’s Package?

4. What will C-Bills purchase and how much will things cost?

5. Will there be gift subscriptions available?

6. After BETA testing is over will the benefits from my Founder’s Package and my earned skills be saved to my account or will everything be reset?

7. Can more than one Founder’s Package be purchased for the same account?

8. Does the Founder’s Package also include the regular starter Mech that every player gets or does the Founder’s Package Mech replace the starter Mech?

9. How long will the Founder’s Packages be available for purchase…through Open BETA…through game launch?

10. What are the regular subscription MWO options and prices?

Elite here.

[GrizzlyViking]

I recently posted in another thread and will re-post here. I am ALL IN for an Elite Founder's Package!

[Real PistolPete]

Elite, but only if they clarify how it looks for euro people

[Elysion]

Elite unless something in the clarifications they are going to come out with later drives me away from it for some reason. But definitely at least vet, i need that tag so i can feel superior to all the little newbies to come~

[Black Ivan]

I won't buy a Founders Package until a clear statement concernig EU Servers and the packages for them has been given.

I learned the hard way from Cryptic / Atari

[shameless]

Elite

[Murphy7]

Elite founder's package, as I understand things at the moment.

[Faenwulf]

Yeah, can you add two more possibilities:

Elite - If Server Migrations are possible for Non-NA players
and
Veteran - If Server Migrations are possible for Non-NA players

Please?

[NWHHarrier]

Elite probably, and definitely if we get a good sneak leek at what our store bux can get us.

[Stray Ion]

Elite, chances are if this was sold on store shelves it would cost that much anyways.

[Hykelion]

Elite. Especially if the Centurion is included in the list of available Founder mechs. As it stands, that Atlas looks sweet.

[Hellgardia]

Elite :3

[Nairdowell]

Elite.... but only after the system requirements are posted...

I think what I will do is add a note to the Devs at the top of the OP later to consolidate and summarize player concerns. I expect that they will be looking at the entire thread anyway to see what is on people's minds, but I will highlight them later at the top of the OP to make things easier for them to review.

I'm guessing the founder mechs are locked in but I hope you're right cuz FD's centurion is my new favorite, even tho some guy in another thread said it looked like a Michael bay transformer lol

[Draelren]

I would also like to see system reqs, but I will buy Elite anyway since I will eventually have a PC to run it... if my current one I have now doesn't.

Dual core, 3.0ghz with 4gb ram, 2.5tb hdd, and a GTX 460 should hopefully be fine.

[Name140704]

More info on founders stuff later this week. I hope it isn't just those four.
