Even as a clan pack owner I feel this second pass would really be a great time to let anyone try the clan mechs. I feel you guys are truly missing out on sale opportunities.


I think its more effective to have them drop in with IS mechs, get killed and watch from spectator mode. You'll see far less faults and everything looks sexy.

If I'm reading those times right - that means that for Australians it'll be starting at four o'clock Monday morning and ending at four that afternoon. So every Australian Mechwarrior who would've been able to test this and either works or goes to school is missing out on it. I'm starting to think that they might be trolling Aussies at this stage; last test was on just as annoying a time for us as well - 3am to 3pm on a Thursday.

This would've been fine if you'd scheduled it for the Saturday and not the Sunday - then it would still be the weekend just about anywhere you have players. There's no point in me downloading the test client since I won't have time to play it in the morning before work and then it'll be closed by the time I get home. Or hell, you could've just made it a 24-hour test instead of a 12-hour one. Then I'd at least be able to get a few hours in on Monday evening.

I feel your pain, but i guess they can't please everyone.

34 mb of patch. Hm, that's too much for game mechanic tweaks only.

Too bad that I will not be able to join in. Sunday is family day for me. If only the public test is longer.

They probably would get a lot of sales from making each prime variant of each chassis into a "champion" for the test.

Orders for Clan Packs reportedly shot up after the first public test.

So now we have another public test.

Smart move.

I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I can't find it... my apologies.

If I install the test, does that overwrite MWO, or does it install it seperately? Will I need to reinstall MWO after?

Separate install entirely.

Separate install. Can have both on your system at the same time, but can only run one.

Hmm... my guess for Sunday's test:

1) Testing out the new item injection script (what caused the test to be delayed about an hour).
2) 4x3 (aka 3/3/3/3) will be tested out. Watch for those drop sizes and see if they follow that format!

Crap now I need to think about upgrading my package before today ends. Blast you PGI and your ways of making money.
