So a big positive as it means we'll get to test the game for a lot longer, as HBS have said they'll be at least a months PvP testing.

Sorry but I don't see the PvP delay as a bad thing at all.


I am OK with them taking the time to make a better product, but my friend who can not play MWO much anymore because of an injury and I were looking forward to blowing each other's Mechs up once again in June.

Finally got mine. Will have to download tomorrow. I hate the delays, but would rather things get done right than to hate the game.

Got my code, played a few rounds. Bit too much RNG on certain distances but definitely looking forward to a career mode ^_^

Lost a mech to a head shot from the first salvo from the enemy team... still won, but that was really annoying.

Played the beta last night for a few hours. I loved it! And considering this is a small sampling of the game I am even more excited for the full release than I was before! If that is even possible!

I am not sure what the beta disclosure agreement was, I believe they said share anything you like, but just to be safe I will keep if vague.
My favorite thing about the game was how it felt like the old table top game, but much faster paced.

And that's all for now!

Yeah, that's the biggest problem with TT and the game, I think. A bit too random.

What, a pilot can't get a lucky shot?

I lost my first and only game (so far). I managed to take out two of the enemy Mechs, but I mainly screwed up by forgetting to face my Mechs the right way after moving / jumping.

Considering there have been people livestreaming their play, I don't think there's any restrictions.

Yep no restrictions on sharing, streaming, posting screenshots etc. HBS was trying to put together a big Twitch multiplayer launch but things got scaled back a bit with the initial beta release being single player skirmish only.
