The only bad thing is that the testperiods are to short.
In Germany it is night and tomorrow I have to go to work, so no testing at all.

It would be nice when PGI would extend their testperiod to 24 or better 48 hours so everyone can test a lot and this would provide a lot more data then this short period.

Well I am a Merc for life. My mind is not for rent to any god or goverment, or clan or house or ideology

I will drop with my IS mechs along side the clan mechs. If they have issues with fighting along aside a freeborn merc then they can join the ghost bears when they pack up and move to the inner sphere

You would think they would run the test for the whole weekend. They might make a few extra bucks and if they really want to gather data from the test a longer time period would be in their best interests.

Just a few hours left to Clan mech testing. A good time to warn you guys. Do not expect this to be something full of fun. A lot of good players will be there, shredding your beloved mechs with focused fire. A lot of inadequates will ruin your efforts. Everyone will be testing pop-tarting and LRM-*******.
My advise is: gather up with your friends and take advantage of Private Lobbies. Take your time in testing grounds and drop into private matches. That's the only way to enjoy this event.

P.S. and bear in mind that this game's one huge beta-test, so even if you will find yourselves enjoying some mech, it can be nerfed into shite any next patch.

They might also extend the period of PT shorttermed, just as they announced the test shorttermed?!

Anyways i'm sitting here, trying to logg on until it will finally work and i can finally spill saliva all over the place hrhr

Data gathering my ass, you cant possibly gather enough info on a 12 hour period...I mean I plan on being their with my clan mechs but dont expect them to get tweaked after that not until a lot more testing goes on. Gonna need at least like 2 weeks.

My Om-nomni mechs are nom-nom-nominal.

Yeah, maybe. But what a 12 hour test WILL catch, are the glaring, game-breaking bugs that would otherwise result in 27.5 scathing forum posts if allowed to manifest on the official launch day.

It's quite possible PGI is selling more. I bought a small package, which I will refund after the public test.

Not anymore you won't.

Personally I hope we dont hit phase 4 because it will mean more of the worst warhorn sound out of the set rolling around.

Im crossing my fingers for a "Warhorn Volume" slider in audio options, if not that, then at least in the Dialogue slider... God help us if it's in the "effects" slider. I REALLY REALLY hope PGI realizes what a ******* circus theyre turning their game into, making warhorns so accessible. Everyone will have one, and there are up to 23 kills in every game...

What does this sentence mean? "All players who registered before today, June 11th, 2014 at 10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 5PM UTC are invited to participate." were we suppose to register? if so where and is it to late?

[Napoleon_Blownapart]

I believe register for the game in general. No alt accounts set up after that time will be allow in....that be my guess anyways

It just means you have to have had an account before that date.

Public tests don't work like this. Wait another two and a half hours and start your attempts.

There is NOTHING saying he can't ask for a refund prior to delivery.

[Bront]

If anyone could try clan mechs, I'd be in on this. Heck, you might have sold one. But I'll stick to just playing normally instead.

Still, glad they opened this up. Will be interesting to see if there are nerf cries just from the tests.

My Test Server client is stuck on Patching even though the patch finished like 10 minutes ago.

That's fine. And it might be okay. but honestly, coming on the forums and advertizing that you bought a package with the intention of returning it... You're just asking for mysterious delays and a general hard time. And you deserve it.

Good job PGI !
Its nice that everybody has the chance to test the clan mechs and weapons !

But I quit with taking part in some public test sessions, because everything i tested before has been completely changed and then brought to the live servers. Or it worked at the test servers, and it was a mess and full of bugs on the live servers. Therefore I cannot experience the Mechs (or the game) as it will be afterwards on the live servers.

But maybe I join this time, because I would like to play around in the Mechlab and try what builds are possible.

only those that bought clan mechs can use them is how i read it

[Sigilum Sanctum]

Oh that's cool. I bought a Timberwolf but it says my account isnt authorized. Awesome

EDIT: Just realized it isn't 2pm Eastern Time yet. That may have something to do with it.
