What hardpoints will they have in each location?

What jump jet options will they have?

What is their default configuation?

Those are the Prime (aka default) varients of the founder mechs. The weapons they come with are shown in the yellow on the right..

And no, you can't change the varient from a cata C1 to a K2

Only founder mechs that have Jump jets are the jenner and catapult..and the hardpoints are determined by the default weapon setup...

Will those people who Bought founder's pack's be placed on the Beta earlier, we are supporting the game besides reading the forum's and posting. I read about the closed beta 2 dates but for 120.00 we should get the beta right away?

My hope is to invite some of the founders into CB1 right away but I do have a bandwidth limitation until we get onto the full production hardware on July 10th when we go CB2

Okay guys I have to cut this off....help each other out as best you can

having to choose your founders mech on a pre-order is a kind of gamble at best isnt it.. without the battle experience in the current gameplay model the decision is somewhat of a blind one, with only drawing on past games experience. this is a new step in the model of gameplay and the game engine, whos to say we decide we dont like our choice..

1. will you guys allow us to be able to make a change in our choice later?

2 . Couldn't have u guys given us an in-game redeemable option to choose our founders mech later after we had some battle time in?

Seems to me that this whole pre-order thing is a huge gamble period. I mean spending $120 for a game when you dont even have a taste for how it plays? For those of us that Arent in the beta test... Even if I had the extra expendible income... I cant imagine playing an extra $120 when I have no idea how the game will play or even if I will like it. Trust me, no one loves anything Battletech related more than I do. Im just being a schrewd steward of my money. I considered the $60. But wow $120. For mechs that are the same as normal in game mechs (except for extra C-bill bonus). Im glad you are getting the support for the project you need.

I don't mean to steal a question away but somehow my name didn't capitalize correctly. Will there be any way in the future to modify this name since it makes me look dumb?

Do you really think Capital Letters will make that look less silly?

[Kenshar]

Thanks for making the separate post for charging issues. Only 1 question now....

It has been stated that after founders is open to the public they will have the first chances when new beta keys come out. Will Legendary members have an even higher standing in this group?

Its call FOUNDERs for a reason..

We ALL want this game because we love MW and BT..

If I had been offered to pay this to ENSURE the game existed after seeing the 3015 video in 2009 I would have.

Right now is when I am sure money is probably critical, they have a LOT of servers to buy.. so think of it as buying your place in the server farm

because it´s a beta (google "beta test") and not a free trial...

Hey Russ,

When I filled out the beta registration form I was on my old PC and hadn't yet ordered the parts for my new rig. I have since built a whole new rig specifically for this game. I also have bought "Founder Legendary." My question is: Is there any way I can update my beta signup form with my new system specs to possibly have a better shot at getting into beta testing? I figure that my posted specs are keeping me from being considered, being that my old rig was over 10 years old. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, and congrats on the, seemingly, successful launch of "Operation Inception."

Hey, having an issue. I cant buy the game. The stupid pay system has rejected 3 credit cards (says declined on all of them) and my paypal account. Yes, all my info is right and plenty of money in all those accounts.

Im stationed in Japan with the US Military, and using all my stateside billing addresses. Are you guys blocking this in Japan or what?

I'm a little confused on your pricing? $10 a month = $30 since we only get three months / $15 per 'Mech*4 = 60, that's $90...where did we get $170 from? Not complaining im glad to be a Legendary member. just curious...

You forgot the $80 worth on in-game money.

no, no you shouldn't. Is it listed on the purchase page?

As they have said in
http://mwomercs.com/...eveloper-update
They are limited to 10k for the first closed beta. On July 10th they will start the second closed beta the numbers invited will probably be limited by hardware(drawn from those early purchasers of the Founder’s Program). Then on Aug 7th they will have all the hardware necessary to allow all the Founders to be injected into beta. They have said that their will be no wipes after Aug 7th.

I think it's the server load. Don't think they were quite ready for it. I had this problem too, just wait awhile and try again.
