Wait...seriously? If so, I might have to pick up a copy of that, so I can take advantage of impatient, spendy people on the internet.

Coincidence. I was actually going to draw a mech of some sort, but that was more effort than I felt like putting into this thread.

That said...thanks for the link, lol.

EDIT: Even better, you just explained where the 'lost cat' thing came from; I've seen that pop up in 3 or 4 different 'funny pic' threads, but never realized there was a whole site full of this sort of trolling, lol.

In that case I apologize for my undue accusation, however considering the circumstances I am sure anyone else would draw the same conclusion.

Yes the cat thing is epic.

Ok, I'm at work, but there is no actual work to do so this thread will begin.

The things I would give at the moment for beta access are the following:

1) $60 (yes I plan to buy the Founder's pack) aside to wife, "yes dear I want to spend $60 dollars on a digital death robot."

2) Literally every minute of free time in my possession, ok about 1 hour per day

3) A date with my wife


(not actual photo, real wife is more scary)

4) My Puppy Sprinkles from when I was 6 years old



5) You may choose the middle name of my second born child. Example Tim Mechwarrior Online Deathbot


Keep the list going people

actually i dont think i could trade sprinkles, thats one cute puppy, ild probably just play with the puppy till the game came out, then forget it exists and it runs off to forage for food.....

Nothing. MWO would be in open beta in like a month or two, so I'll just wait.

I would offer the developers something of greater value than what you've listed.

For example, I have this anatomically-correct painting of a spider, being taken over by the Collector-General. I have had this painting appraised at $2,000 USD, give or take a couple hundred, depending on the means of sale (perhaps more, if at an auction). I would gladly give up this most valued posession in exchange for a beta key, if the devs were actually susceptible to bribes/sweet-talking/brown-nosing.





Coming from a hard-core Ghost Bear, this goes from amusing to awesome, lol.

A Clean butt is a happy butt my friend, always remember to wipe.

[Reported for Inappropriate Name]

the only things of real value in a beta testing environment is time and attention to detail. But even if I promised to give those things If I were given a key special out of everyone else who is picked at random (well as random as a random number generator can be) that would be Incredibly unfair to everybody else who more than likely is willing to commit the same time and attention to detail that I would.

let's say you did get in early, the only real valuable thing you can get out of it is data, experience, knowledge of the game that others will not have until later, but it doesn't change the fact that it's bad business to spend money on something you can get for free, and that is to play the game (which isn't the point of a closed beta anyway.)


I guess what I'm trying to say is patience are a virtue, and feeding into "hype" is a great way to spoil perfectly good games with impatience and willingness to overlook flaws just to sate an addiction.

LOL. Deep in the back of my head I know you are absolutely correct, but in my heart, I know that I have an addiction and I am not willing to give it up yet, so um can I have a key please.

I imagine his butt is not very happy.

[Maxiom]

The possibility of having dedicated Linux gamers join in the near future if I can cajole WINE to play nice with MWO which could be a man month of work or more before being able to "play" which is kinda outside of reasoning for a BETA key so.... I am fine with waiting till its open to start WINEing it up.
