This sounds like another F5 fest waiting to happen.

I can understand though. At least on this one, eventually when you hit F5 to refresh the page, something NEW will pop up.

I would imagine it would be more along the lines of 8:00 am Pacific time. It might be 12:00 am if they have it automated, but I'd imagine they'd want someone there to ensure any bumps that come up can be quickly smoothed out.

Does it really matter? It's not like you can do anything for at least another month. Take a deep breath and chillax. All this stress your passing on is going to give me a heart attack.

I'd give 2:1 odds that the server will get overwhelmed by people doing this at some point on Tuesday.

That is what I was figuring, but not sure if that is the route i will take. I am a fan of having options, one reason I like this so much :)

It'll be Pacific time.. and my guess is actually for 10:00 PDT.. since that is when the news flashes come out, and I think I've seen a few other announcements hit from them around then.

I guess tomorrow around the time the devs arrives at work as I bet they want plenty of time while at work to monitor everything goes smoothly.

While funny (and totally something I'd expect Paul to do), I'm pretty sure the prices they've already given are in USD.

I would also like to see, how is handled difference in founders mechs. If they make Founders Janner to be equivalent of Founders Atlas?

Bigger c-bill bonus? Another different advantage?

Role warfare. A large part of the development and design has been devoted to making sure there is no inherent advantage to playing assault vs light mech apart from play style. Light mechs will get their income from spotting and providing eyes for long range fire, while Assault will gain more from actual damage. Also, this isn't World of Tanks, the scout will pack the same weapons as a Assault, assuming it can fit them, so there is no reason to assume it can't hurt you.

For Canadians, at least, I think we can pay using Canadian Tire money. ;)
