It says on the email they sent out a few hours ago announcing the sale starting. "Premium accounts will become active at the start of Open Beta", followed by an explanation about what Premium means in terms of C-bills and xp.
I did not receive an email about the sale so I'm not sure what was said in it, is it the same thing as their announcement post here: http://mwomercs.com/...age-on-sale-now

Okay very good question

I did put another post up in general about double charges or other charge errors

However I just talked with Kyle....what you need to do is select Elite as an upgrade rather than buying two veterans.

What I suggest doing is do the elite upgrade right now and it should charge you 30$ to upgrade to elite then get your refund for the 30$ you spent on the second veteran

End result should be 60$ as it should be


If I am reading this correctly, you are saying that upgrading a Founder's Pack costs the difference between the pack you are going to and the pack you are coming from. Could you please state if this is right or not? :D

Also, are the Founders packs tied to my computer or my MWO account? Just wondering since I purchased a pack using my current system, if I purchase a computer that is more in line with the recommended specs, will I be able to use my Founders pack with the new PC?

And...one more thing. I am seeing allot of Founder's tags. Just curious.
Did the first day of Operation Inception meet your expectations? :)

Will you still be issuing the random access closed beta keys to those who have bought founders?


"Will you still be issuing the random access closed beta keys to those who have bought founders?
Once we have achieved Closed Beta 2 we continue to ramp up the beta testers to the point where
we can handle the injection of the founders program. 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."

At least until the 15th of July, no later than 7 Aug. Russ posted that earlier in the thread somewhere.

I don't think it'll be all that bad. If you actually go look at all the pilot & mech trees, there's not that much. And for some people, like me, you can completely discount some trees. I'll likely never get in an Atlas. Possibly never get in anything bigger than a medium. It just doesn't fit me.

So all I have to do is max out my Jenner & Raven trees, then I'm golden until new mechs come out. :)

Give me your credit card info. :)

All kidding aside, have you taken a look at the thread about double charges & other issues that's just under (maybe over) this one in the general forum?


Yup, sure did read it, and pretty much everyone there is being doubled charged, while mine is in a constant decline. Hopefully its just a server issue, and itll go though. Hopefully also it wont charge me a 100 times, since I keep trying to get it. Was just wondering if anyone else is having this issue though, and that its not just a problem with being in Japan or something.

Hope they fix this issue soon.

A question regarding founder tags, both on the forum and in-game.

Will there be an option of hiding them?

I'd feel kind of silly with such a tag permanently attached, like I was showing off. Plus I'm afraid it will be a “Please shoot me first!” tag, in-game.

Naw thats the legendary tag.

Will there be any kind of restriction for the rest of America and other countries?
Will there be IP-Block or any kind of stuff like this? (This totally will make me think in buying a founder's account or not)

Euro players - for hopefully all the clarity needed

You can spend your MC and in short get all of your founders rewards etc. If you stay on the NA server...great. If you leave you take all your stuff with you...no downside at all here.


Cheers, thanks for answering my question. Now I just need to figure out which package to get :)

Holy Frak! Pages are piling up before I can even scroll to bottom of page. Good luck Russ!

EDIT: When I posted this there were 11 pages, 3 when I started reading. By the time this posted through, there were 34 pages. Yikes!

What plans do you have for future packs down the line?
If you have plans, how would they stack with these offers?

unsure what you mean by restriction, but about IP Blocking, there will be NO IP Blocking.

... As we have mentioned we are working very hard to launch MechWarrior Online in every region worldwide. .... However There is no IP blocking. You can signup from everywhere just keep in mind that if you are outside of North America we cannot guarantee your play experience.
