Sorry if this is obvious but, does this mean we eu players have to spend all the MC BEFORE transferring to an eu server?

No take the MC with you if you like

I will risk saying yes to this

Russ you may end up getting alot more founders than you bargained for....eh

With so many player founders having a huge advantage over new players that join later... I hope you have a system in place by then to separate the new players from the old in the form of fair matchmaking so noobs wont be discouraged to keep playing when getting horribly owned by old players who are far advantaged from better equipment and skill trees....

Just want to say thanks Russ. This is incredible and as an old vet from mech 2 I believe you will capture that spirit of old and make it brand new again. thanks PGI...I'm an elite ya baby...

Can you go into more details about our names listed in the MWO Legends credits for those who bought Legendary?

Thanks!

Anyone who buys a Founders Package whether Elite or legendary will still have 4 empty mech bay slots on top of the Mech's they get with Founders.

Thanks, brilliant news.

[Agaster]

Are there going to be different payment options, while the founder packs are available?

[Dazc]

Would be nice if Garth kicked the server again and all Legendary Founders got into beta.
Just sayin'

I would seriously doubt that. Let's say you earn a total of two billion C-bills at some future point. Would it really be overpowered to have 2.5 billion vs. 2 billion? Probably not.

Getting a unique item/mech that's more powerful and that no one else could get unless they spent money may be OP, but never stuff to help you gain money/xp over time.

You get a standard mech but it makes more C-Bills
So the page to buy or above

i got 1 questions about this post from the devs update PLEASE CLARIFY !! (that is no longer part of the update)

I should say that it is logical that this next round of beta testers will likely be drawn from those early purchasers of the founders program; it only makes sense since they have shown such dedication and are quite likely to be excellent beta testers.

any more info on this
PLEASE EXPLAIN !!
what are my odds now of getting into beta

From the Dev update:

On July 10th, we are scheduled to move to our production hardware, allowing many thousands of simultaneous players to enjoy the game, also known internally as the launch of Closed Beta 2. As we continue to ramp up the beta testers (drawn from those early purchasers of the Founder’s Program), the next milestone is the injection of the Founder’s Program assets on Aug. 7th.

If you bought the legendary package and have all 4 mechs do you still get one other free mech at start, as a starter mech?

(sorry if this has been asked already, there are 11 pages of posts and it's slow going trying to wade through them).

You will still have your initial mech and 4 empty slots.. the founders will be in ADDITIION

I bought the Legendary, got charged and nothing happened. Will I have to pursue this problem or will it be fixed for me?

Wait a few minutes most people say what you just said and then never mind right after because it showed up.

I just wanted to know what kinds of stuff I can buy with the $80 bucks

This has been answered. Read back. It was ~ 8-10 Med Mechs. More smalls, less super heavies.

[The Lonegopher]

So if I buy the elite package, once my premium time runs out I'll only get a 25% instead of the 50 + 25 bump on my founders mech?

[Sinner098]

OK, so I want the elite founders pack, I got the e-mail and paypal for that. I look at my e-mail now and i have an e-mail that says elite to legendary, i don't want that. Whats up?

[Thermal Scorpion]

Russ thanks for taking all of these questions. Will Legendary Founders get an extra Mech Bays to account for the one they normally start with or just the 4 Mech Bays for each of the Founder Mechs?

Thanks,
Thermal

[KJ Crow]

Just a small request, not really a question.... please stop taking my money!!..... I only wanted Elite.... purchased this and an hour later I get told that I have purchased an upgrade from Elite to Legendary.... no....I didn't.... much as I may love the game and wish to support you, I only wanted the Elite pack as I don't want all 4 mechs.... personal preference....I don't like using Assaults and the light I will be using isn't included so only really had a choice of 2!..... so please oh please, hold off on charging me anything else!

This has been answered. The founders mechs come with a bay each. You will still have 4 free bays in your garage/hangar.

[Petrified]

It would be nice if the $120 for the Legendary actually gave you more in the way of C -bills than eliite. Sure, 4 founders mechs, but what are they? What can we do with them (think customize)? I want to know that it is fiscally better than simply dropping $60 for the Elite package and then spending $60 additional on C-bills which could buy me more than I am getting in Legendary. Game credit is nice, but not enough to bridge the gap in price.

Convince me. The money is waiting.

*edit* - Serves me right for starting a post then not seeing if there was more posted two hours later before hitting submit. I think my shiny new tag shows I was convinced.
