So the beta appears to be real close. They posted a thread showing the friends and family beta yesterday. The thought of be able to play a new MW game in a few months makes a giddy as a school girl.

good gyead. I am psyched as well. Back in the day for MW3 I used a flightstick, but since then I've really learned how to excel at using just a simple mouse setup with lots of keyboard hotkeys. I feel like I can train my mouse cursor onto a terrified Marik pilot way faster than I can with a joystick. Whats the opinion of the rest of you mercs? Mouse or Joystick?

I played with the M$ Force Feedback Pro and I liked the feel of it. However, I refuse to play $300 for a new FFB2, so I will give the mouse a try.

Mouse and key all the way.

[SilentWolff]

I've always played with a MS Precision Pro for MW3 and MW4. After playing tanks with a mouse and a Nostromo pad though, I think it could be a good layout for MWO as well and I think I will start playing the game with that setup.

[Six6VI]

Ill have to look into that pad of yours Wolff

Here it is......

I've used it for alot of games. Tanks, Dark Age of Camelot, Warhammer Online. Its pretty adaptable and fully customizable.

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted much, but driving 1.5 hours to work every day does not leave me much time to follow much. I should be moving down closer to work soon though hopefully in time for the beta.

[SilentWolff]

Its all good Star. RL tends to interfere with the fun times. Hopefully youll be more freed up in a few months. The good times are about ro roll once again!

XD he appoligized...

The new issue of PC Gamer came out and had a nice little write up about MWO. They also seen the WoT similairity. As I said before, people that play WoT are going to have an instant advantage over those that dont.

Good news for my summer availability =]

I am still a grad student and have to focus on that obviously, but the nice thing is that now im mostly working from home. This summer I still have to do some field work, a couple long days a week. The girlfriend (who lives with me) has been briefed on the coming time commitment to the empire, and she understands what it means for me to sign up with KE. This suggests that most afternoons / nights I will have a pretty good schedule. I would love to start to establish dates and times for exercises / team nights. Whatever we can do to keep the unity high and the teamwork at a maximum. Even though I remember how well each KE stands on his/her own... united we will stand alone =P

Tis good.

[NikkoKilla]

I dig it any idea how many confirmed we have on the roster? Can we get a roster on the wiki? Im all for stats tracking and will push the devs to include an api to support wiki stats.

Great job silent.

[SilentWolff]

I've added more to the wiki page and have also linked up our forum in my sig. Check the sites out and tell me what you guys think. I'm open to any suggestions you guys might have.

w00t Ding 20 pages on our thread!!!

"The Empire is believed to be in possession of Alien technologies which has given the Empire a great advantage even at low numbers on the battlefield."

IMO, that sounds like we've relied on "alien technology" and not our natural piloting/gunnery skills to achieve victory for the Empire.

[NikkoKilla]

Why not place it in the context of the BT universe and talk about lineage extending back into the StarLeague or something, with tacticians and mechanics whose abilities can be described as nothing short of Alien when matched against InnerSphere pilots.

Cannot wait till open beta
